Beaten Fox News Journalists: Arab crowd went straight for our heads. A few days after being pummeled nearly to death by crowds of pro-Mubarak Arab thugs on the streets of Egypt, Fox News journalists Greg Palkot and Olaf Wiig finally felt strong enough to appear on camera and give first-hand testimony of what kind of barbarism they suffered at the hands of said thugs. To hear Palkot and Wiig tell their story, it sounded like they were right in the middle of a war zone in Tahrir Square. Particularly telling is Palkots testimony that the Arab crowd intentionally made a target of the journalists heads, which they repeatedly beat over and over and over again. Adding insult to injury, both men were interrogated by the Egyptians before being finally released.

more likely they were muslim brotherhood, the real puppetmasters in all of this.
It is lucky these journalist did not have their heads sawed off in the street. Anarchy has that effect.
next time send Geraldo...
Conservatives strive to be like the Bereans who “... received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, [to find out] whether those things were so.” Acts 17:11
Yeah, but we need to bring these poor, oppressed, misunderstood people by the thousands into America, Sweden, England, France, Italy, etc. s/
They so enrich our culture don’t you know. s/
Why no reporting on the coordinated attacks on prisons that released tens of thousands of inmates? Why would Mubarak release thousands of radical islamists who hate him?”
Keep in mind that under Mubarak, anyone opposing him or the gov’t got arrested...that includes bloggers. So many of the people released were young dissidents too, not just radical islamists.
Oh, sorry. Hadn’t had enough coffee yet...

Even Muslims have standards.
When A-rabs fight against real soldiers they tend to die in heaps.
I think you miss the underlying point. They are 'risking their lives' because the issue suits the left, and anti-westernism.
They are not investigating ACORN or SEIU or the myriad treasons of the left in the US. All of which they could do without rocks being thrown at them. (All they would face a 20% chance of Ft. Marcy Parkicide).
Journo-lists aren't noble.
They are the ideological enforcers of the left, their purpose is to deceive and keep the truth from the American people.
The “Palis” are Egyptian rejects. Jordanians are tribals who have been on that land for thousands of years.
Thanks for the info, that clarifies a few issues for me.
