Well said. Glad you sent it!
Bravo! Very well said.
I don't see how you come to that conclusion. The kidnappers probably aren't under the control of the Palestinian Authority. That this happened is a big black eye to the Palestinian cause. What good would it do to suck up to the PA?
Anyone remember Daniel Pearl?
I must say the man is cool under fire.
I can not even image how I would respond to this kind of stress.
This is a great quote. It shows the far left does understand and is choosing to ignore the warnings. For years, the far left MSM has insulted the conservative values of its customers. They have mocked religious conservatives and championed causes in opposition to same. And now the far left MSM is bleeding customers.
And they fail to connect the dots - but they do understand that actions have consequences. They just hate that the consequences are applied to them.
The Dixie Chicks made the same mistake and are now having to cancel concerts because they thought it was a good idea to mock and insult their customers. And their response too is to complain that they have free speech and shouldn't be punished for exercising that right.
Dear Mr. Laurence,
You can be certain I feel no friendship or even respect for a cretinous scumbag like you. Still, if the jihadists kidnapped you I would certainly think that your fate as a human being mattered. I would certainly think that every effort should be made to follow your story and work for your release.
The Fox News team that you so blithely leave to the jihadists are worth more in one fingernail than your entire worthless existence.
Nonetheless, I would not wish their fate upon you and I would never say you had it coming as an anti-American lowlife if the jihadists were to separate your head from your body or pursue other forms of jihadist recreation.
Sincerely,
A Real American
You get a letter back yet???
Shep hasn't been on in recent days.....wonder if he's still shaking in relief that it wasn't him that got nabbed.
That's horrible because we know and they know that their demands will not be met. You have to wonder what the purpose of this barbarism is, that is beyond building their own self esteem.
I have been struggling with a definition of a cult that would describe Islam and I think that I have come up with a pretty good definition. I think that a cult is any religion that benefits someone or group, other than or more than its followers, and uses mind control to keep the adherents in line.
I have read that those in charge in Gaza have been worried about AlQaeda infiltrating from Egypt. I am terribly afraid for these two brave souls from Fox. The video does seem awfully like the videos from the recent past where the captives have suffered an ill fate. My prayers are with Mr.Centanni and Mr.Wiig and their families.
TV Critic:Kidnapping Not Covered Because Fox News "Set Itself Apart" (they die who cares)
you go, girl!
Nothing, they are indeed a piece of work.
Indeed, mware. It was one of the most mendacious articles I've ever read, but, as noted, at least HONEST for MSM.
Don't you wonder how Mr. Laurence sleeps at night ???
Doin' ok ... looking forward to a get-togther in January :)
Yeah, Bob, and it would be deliciously funny that you said so if not for the situation.
I pray that both men are found safe and sound.
I too, had wondered why there was so little reporting on this. But, as you point out, if there is nothing new to report what are they supposed to say.
I also considered that maybe they were were afraid of being accused of sensationalizing the story because they were 'their' people.
I hope they will be okay and pray for them.
The gal from the Science Monitor was released so maybe these guys will be, too.
Something else to keep in mind is that the terrorists count on news coverage. Maybe not giving them the coverage is a good thing.
Fox has been quiet about the story for three reasons IMO.
1. If they ran it continually, they would be accused of using the kidnapping to jack up ratings.
2. They are not going to give the terrorists who have them what they want, publicity.
3. They are working behind the scenes to get this situation resolved and are keeping informtion very quiet in order to not harm chances of them being released. Until this video was released, it's been a news blackout.
Now, I'm not suprised that the liberal medial has put their own opinion over the lives of these two men. After all, they work for the "enemy" and since when have liberals cared about life?
