That is, no mention was made of the fact that until the two men left Gaza, they remained unfree.

It was only when these guys reached the Promised Land, that they knew they were safe. Maybe I would have kissed the "Palis'" a$$e$ too, to get out of there. But if they don't repudiate that cr@p like "Don't get me wrong here. I have the highest respect for Islam," these guys, Centanni especially, are through as far as credibility goes. Why didn't they feel safe under the auspices of the Prime Minister in Gaza? I give Centanni a day or two. After that Fox should fire him and pull every reporter from every region that purports to be controlled by Sharia Law.

From National Review Online: "As many of you may have heard, we've dropped Ann Coulter's column from NRO....In the wake of her invade-and-Christianize-them column, Coulter wrote a long, rambling rant of a response to her critics that was barely coherent. She's a smart and funny person, but this was Ann at her worst — emoting rather than thinking, and badly needing editing and some self-censorship, or what is commonly referred to as 'judgment'."

Ann Coulter: "Ozzy Osbourne has his bats, and I have that darn 'convert them to Christianity' quote. Some may not like what I said, but I'm still waiting to hear a better suggestion."

Well, listening to the joy and relief in the voice of the reporter based in Israel when she reported that they had crossed into Israel told me all I needed to know about the situation.

I guess FOX has to be there because all the other new services are, but I believe that everything we get out of there is pretty much propaganda and not news.

Did you see the joy with which the released FOX journalists met their "Palestinian" colleagues?

Can you believe anything out of FOX, or any other outlet in Gaza, if the stage managers of Pallywood work hand in hand even with "Right Wing" FOX?

Usually it doesn't take a kidnapping -- generally speaking the alleged / purported / supposed journalists covering stories in the terrorist-infested Middle East act as if they are converts to Islam and toe the line.

Great article.

Little by little the word is getting out.

Muslims lie, it is considered proper to lie to infidels.

Before the Second intifada, during Bosnia civil war (1992-95) Islamic terrorists (both domestic and imported variety) have mastered the macabre theatrics to capture world sympathy for their terrorist cause. They were highly successful, mostly because they did not spare the lives of their own coreligionists in order to acheive the full effect: sniping of the citizens of Sarajevo, mortar bombing breadline, planting explosive devices on a busy marketplace and so on, culminating in genocide hoax of Srebrenica.

Willing media Media instructed by the Saudi-funded PR agencies blamed the Serbs. And Jerusalem Post dutifully followed and spred the lies on their behalf.

In order to support NATO aggression on Yugoslavia in 1999 even more macabre theatrics was employed. A massacre was staged (Racak) and dead terrorists were represented as poor innocent Albanian civilians.

And guess what? Jerusalem Post followed the terrorist line and blamed the Serbs.

When agression started, Serbs were accused of HOLOCAUST, genocide, concentration camps, even running crematoria similar to Treblinka and Birkenau.

Guess what, Jerusalem Post followed the line and thus not only supported terrorists, denigrated Serbs as a people in a Goebbels manner, but also injured the memory of people who perished in The Holocaust.

Now, Jerusalem Post complains of islamic terrorist theatrics. Theatrics were developed with the willing help of Jerusalem Post.

The lessons of islamic theatrics and propaganda use of children in Kosovo were employed in Second intifada, the lessons of Racak "massacre" were employed in Jenin "massacre", the lessons of Sarajevo "massacres" were emplouyed in Qana "massacre".

And it will not stop any time soon.

Jusalem Post, what kept you? I am sick of islamic propaganda and I am sick of Jerusalem Post spreading the very same Islamic propaganda they now complain of. They are fully responsible, as a member of Jihad supporting media corps. Now, it is too late and "we did not know" is not an excuse we can believe in.

However, better late than never.

A very obvious series of coincidence.

From the same article (maybe this is a digression):

The International Committee of the Red Cross, with its internationally mandated status as a protected organization, is particularly culpable. The blogoshere - and specifically EU Referendum and Zombietime Web sites - have shown that Red Cross employees in Tyre and Kana fabricated from whole cloth a tale of an Israeli airstrike against Red Cross ambulances in Kana on July 23. In an exhaustively documented report, "How the Media Legitimized an Anti-Israel Hoax and Changed the Course of a War," Zombietime showed how Red Cross employees took an old, rusty ambulance and alleged that the IAF had attacked it with a missile that blew a hole straight through the middle of the red cross on the ambulance's roof.

The Red Cross allegation was reported as fact by such "credible" news organizations as Associated Press, Time magazine, the BBC, ITV, The New York Times, The Guardian, The Age, MSNBC, The Los Angeles Times and the Boston Globe. Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch both published accounts of the attack as evidence of Israeli "war crimes" in Lebanon.

Zombietime clearly proved from simple scrutiny of the photographs taken of the ambulance, that the hole in the cross was not the result of a missile attack but the work of the ambulance manufacturer. It was the hole for an air vent. The pock marks on the roof were the result of age and decay. There had been no fire in the ambulance. There was no attack. It was a complete fabrication, concocted by Red Cross employees who enjoy their protected status because their organization has pledged its neutral status in this and all wars.

ONE WEEK later, as EU Referendum reports in a similarly detailed investigation of the much condemned IAF bombing of Kana on July 30, (which actually happened a mile north of Kana at Khuraybah village), Red Cross relief workers actively participated in the staging of a perverted media extravaganza where the bodies of dead children were paraded about before the waiting camera crews for hours and hours.

Rather than demand that the ICRC account for the clear breach of its binding commitment to neutrality, and rather than attack the Lebanese Red Cross for its active collaboration with Hizbullah, the international media has attacked the bloggers. They are brushed off as "Israel supporters," and "right-wing extremists." The aim of these brush-offs is to convince "right thinking" citizens that they oughtn't have anything to do with these champions of truth and human decency.

I'm finding it increasingly difficult to be associated with the Red Cross. They insist that their volunteers be unable to protect themselves and they make it difficult to go to Mass or other worship when one is working for them, and they pretty much show contempt for their volunteers. I had a very bad time in Louisiana last year and I'm guess I'm still not over it.
