You obviously don’t work for the major networks.

When the second war with Iraq started, all we heard on the news was that the US was bombing “the Holy city” of this, or “the Holy city” of that. They couldn’t say it enough times. We, and the Arabs, were laughing at them. What these liberal ‘Infidels’ failed to realize is that the Arabs consider ALL their cities to be ‘Holy’. lol

What a joke. Secular, religion hating liberals, obsessed with ‘Holy’ cities. We were yelling at the TV, “Of course the Iraqis are going to tell you that its Holy! Are you stupid?”

Of course, these same reporters would never describe a Christian or Jewish city in this way. The Holy city of Bethlehem? You’ll never ever hear it reported that way on the news. Only Muslims have ‘Holy’ stuff according the Libs.

But, Bush was President at the time and the media was desperate to make the war look as bad as possible. You don’t hear about ‘Holy cities’ anymore but you will hear it again if Israel ever goes to war with the Muslims. Suddenly, everything Islamic will be ‘Holy’ again. That’s just the way it works.

Interesting. Frank Luntz stuff. All believers should make a point of saying “the Holy Bible” instead of just “the Bible.”
