Rosie Sees Only Evil in US, Not Iran, Speaks on 9/11 Conspiracy Theories Posted by Justin McCarthy on March 29, 2007 - 14:34.
The co-hosts of "The View" again discussed the Iranian British hostage situation on the March 29 edition. Rosie O’Donnell trusted the Iranians more than the British and Americans, and the discussion evolved into more Rosie rants against alleged Bush administration tyranny and for the first time on "The View," Rosie ranted on her September 11 conspiracy theories. Rosie’s rants were too much even for fringe liberal Joy Behar. Token non-liberal Elisabeth Hasselbeck was far more assertive than the previous day. In the teaser at the end of the first segment, Rosie and Joy made light of the upcoming discussion.
ROSIE O’DONNELL: Alright we’re going to take a break and come back and talk about the situation in Iran with the soldiers, the British soldiers who were in international waters. The British say they were in the right waters and the Iranians say no they were in our waters, and so it begins.
JOY BEHAR: Do you think people are now clicking us off because you promoed that?
O’DONNELL: Well, I don’t know, but we're going to talk about it and I'm sure it will make the news.
Rosie exclaimed what is certainly news to Iran, that the entire world is siding with Iran as opposed to Britain and the United States.
O’DONNELL: Here’s the problem with what you just said, "us," because it's now Britain and the United States pretty much against the rest of the world. How did this happen?
Rosie, always concerned about the humanity of terrorists, brought that up again.
O’DONNELL: It's just it’s very hard in America when anyone from the mid-east has been so demonized that no matter what, it's impossible for some people to believe that the Iranians in any way could ever do anything ethical in any capacity. They are not people. They have somehow been dehumanized to the point where they’re not people who they’re just the enemy, the terrorists.
With the aide of guest co-host Marcia Gay Harden, Rosie continued on that theme, but that was too much even for her ideological ally, Joy Behar.
MARCIA GAY HARDEN: That digresses from what the real issues are. You worded a war on terror, personally that is propaganda.
O’DONNELL: Exactly, Marcia. Thank you.
HARDEN: I don't like the wording of it.
O’DONNELL: Right, because it makes people into evil and good.
BEHAR: This guy Amanidajaja (sic), whatever his name is. He is a bad guy, he is a very bad guy. He stated explicitly he wants to wipe Israel off the map. This guy is a bad guy.
O’DONNELL: I'm not saying he's a good guy and I want him over for breakfast. No I’m not. I’m saying that in America we are fed propaganda and if you want to know what's happening in the world go outside of the U.S. media because it's owned by four corporations one of them is this one. And you know what, go outside of the country to find out what's going on in our country because it's frightening. It’s frightening.
HASSELBECK: So you think we're being brainwashed as a whole country? I think not. I think it’s a media
O’DONNELL: Democracy is threatened in a way it hasn't been in 200 years and if America doesn't stand up we're in big trouble.
Rosie should do some research on U.S. history. She is apparently unaware of the Alien and Sedition Acts, President Abraham Lincoln suspending Habeas Corpus, the Red Scare immediately after World War I, and the internment of Japanese Americans during World War II.
Rosie for the first time mentioned her September 11 conspiracy theories on "The View." Note that she has "no idea" who attacked us on that tragic day.
HASSELBECK: Do you believe that the government had anything to do with the attack of 9/11? Do you believe in a conspiracy in terms of the attack of 9/11?
O’DONNELL: No. But I do believe the first time in history that fire has ever melted steel. I do believe that it defies physics for the World Trade Center Tower Seven, building seven, which collapsed in on itself, it is impossible for a building to fall the way it fell without explosives being involved, World Trade Center Seven. World Trade Center one and Two got hit by plains. Seven, miraculously, for the first time in history, steel was melted by fire. It is physically impossible.
HASSELBECK: And who do you think is responsible for that?
O’DONNELL: I have no idea. But to say that we don't know it was imploded, that there was implosion in the demolition, is beyond ignorant. Look at the film. Get a physics expert here from Yale, from Harvard. Pick the school. It defies reason.

Fire never melted steel? Is she aware of how it is made?
What defies reason is that day in a day out her waist band can withstand that much pressure.
I didn't know Rosie O was a physicist and a structural expert too!
Someday, somebody is going to have to take the blame for putting this idiot in the public eye.
Guffaw!
"I’m saying that in America we are fed propaganda and if you want to know what's happening in the world go outside of the U.S. media because it's owned by four corporations one of them is this one."
Well, she's right about that.
What defies reason is that anyone gives this bile-filled ignorant gas-bag a forum from which to spout this hate-filled nonsense.
Why do we quote what this bloated pig says? I see Fox talk up her rants etc which in my view gives her credibility. I'm sure this gives her the idea she is relevant now.
I'm just kinda glad that the only time I really see Rosie O'Bubblehead say anything is when someone posts it here...
The time I spend here is much more productive than watching this drivle live...You'd have to chain me down to actually watch this show...ever...Along with Oprah, Springer, and probably most of those "judge" shows...
There's just so much more to do that sit in front of the TV...
Explosively formed devices don't melt steel?
You know, all these !$%#!$!@#$!@# "Americans" hate America so much, you'd think they'd get their (big) butts out of here and go to their Utopias.
But, of course, it never happens. Wonder why?
Hypocrites.
Rosie suffers from acute craniorectumitis.
She should hang by her heels more often - preferably on a greased pole sticking out of the Empire State Building.
No, ABC feeds us queers.
She knows ABC won't fire her over that, her ratings are too high. Hell, she has a daily thread here on FR!
.......
"O’DONNELL: Democracy is threatened in a way it hasn't been in 200 years and if America doesn't stand up we're in big trouble."
You're right Rosie. But it's all because of communists like you.
You mean like car bombs that leave twisted wreckage?
Rosie should be given a free trip to Iran, so she finds out first hand what Muslims do to Lesbians.
"O’DONNELL: No. But I do believe the first time in history that fire has ever melted steel. I do believe that it defies physics"
She also need to pick up a PHYSICS book. As well as MATERIALS books.
Even if not - has she ever seen a STEEL MILL?
