Glad to oblige. Nothing quite as satisfying as shining a little light of day on these self-appointed intel experts.
(Especially the ones with a left-wing agenda!)

About two months ago, the US shut down an Iraqi newspaper. There was one snide question about it during a white house press briefing.
The newspaper was shut down because it was printing stories that Israeli's and other jews were buying up all the real estate in Iraq.
The media hack that asked the question was quite sarcastic in his question regarding shutting down the newspaper...oh, free press, etc etc.
Was this kind of outright lying reporting in the Iraqi paper something that made Berg even more of a target?
Nearly every comment on the Iraqi war leads him to blaming Saudi Arabia.....
He has an agenda and he also has some agenda driven sources.
See underlined part below...
"Uhh, his dad's name, uhh, popped up on an enemies list from an ultra-right wing site listing all of the groups and organizations, that according to their sad little likes, are anti-American..." "What listing is he referring to?"
This should bring you up to speed in a hurry: "salon.com contacts DFU over FR's role in murder of Nick Berg by Islamofascist Terrorist b*st*rds"

I've missed something. Am I reading that Nick Berg has a deceased sister who was married to an Iraqi? Is this true? I haven't heard this anywhere else.
Does it describe those who are often more knowledgeable than the media reporting on an issue?
Does it describe those who get out to support their candidates, often at great sacrifice to themselves?
Speak for yourself, this site is right a thousand percent more times than the print and electronic media trying to destroy this country.
Loftus owes us an apology if in fact he meant FR.
LOL, I don't think there is anything that the media could ever say or do that could ever make the Arabs hate the Jews more passionately than they already do! (But who knows, maybe what you suggest did make a difference in Berg's case.)

Amen and amen and amen.

Oh, you'd better believe he was referring to FR. We are the only website with an "enemies list" that the paranoid, lying, left tried to connect to Berg's death. If you're not familiar with that controversy, check out the link in #24.
Does he owe FR an apology? Of course he does, but I'll expect to see that apology about the same time cows learn to fly.

Sure is weird. But with something so easily verifiable, why hasn't it been picked up by the media. That's indeed an important circumstance.
I understand. I do tend to believe one thing that he & others(?) have been saying for months...& that is that Iraq's WMD were moved to Syria & Lebanon.
gee, here I thought I was mainstream!
But what gets me is - there is no one more pro-war then Loftus. He wants everybody hit over there, he routinely expresees hatred for them all - Syria, Iran, the terror groups like Hezzbollah & Hamas, Sadr, AQ, the Taliban, Pakistan. And he despises the Saudis. He wants everyone taken out over there.
So what does that make him?
Loftus has a website. He also answers emails....let him know what you think!
I have never gotten a response from emailing Batchelor. Monica Crowley has answered my emails, so has Phil Boyce from WABC. But not Batchelor.
He is a huge supporter of Israel and everything he says with regard to the war is colored by that support. This is not meant as a crictism of his views but to answer your post.
Batchelor knows that some part of his listener-ship comes from here and the conservative right wing (sad to say), and he doesn't want to risk offending or losing those listeners. Loftus, on the other hand, could care less about offending conservatives, and would have identified this site by name in a heart beat, had Batchelor given him the chance.

Either that or just a bit right of middle when not viewed from the penultimate wacky left point of view.
