She is a hero to the Muslim world. I would wager that she finds a job in broadcasting very soon. Probably for All Jazz ear-ah.
If the US govt was held to the same standards as CNN editors, Obama would be forced to resign.
By that account, the whole network should be gone for being pro-terrorist.
Well, maybe that’s why they are being marginalized.
"was an error of judgment for me to write such a simplistic comment and I'm sorry because it conveyed that I supported Fadlallah's life's work. That's not the case at all."
Yeah, it conveyed that because that's what you wrote.
Hi Robin!
What’s your thread-to-comment ratio?
Are you an automated spamming service?
she will be a senior advisor to the white house next.......
Her next gig.... Speaker for CAIR?
CNN = Commie News Network
That fact probably gave her endless tingles.
NBC = National Brainwashing Company
Gracious! Twitter is becoming the giant killer. I gather this Nasr character was a known quantity.
Nice to see that certain parties are fighting back for a change. Maybe Helen Thomas started the ball rolling. Perhaps ADL ran out of aging klansmen to point at and go eeeek!
Could it be that they are now monitoring the social networking of known anti-semites looking for red meat? Dare I give them credit?
Dang, I thought the only thing that would get you in trouble with that network is to advocate conservative causes.
Yep! It was an error in judgment to write what she actually believed. Now CNN will have to find another sleeper. They alread have Christiane Amanpour but we are onto her so it will have to be another terrorist ..... aaah I mean “freedom fighter” lover!
...not to mention her reports YTD?
Just one of a long list of America-haters that CNN has employed over the years, like their roster of Latin American reporters with ties to both Castro and the Sandinistas.
what about the rest of the CNN scum?

I note twitter robs them of the ole “I was taken out of context” defense. Since twitter only holds a couple of sentences there is no surrounding context. What you write is what you mean.
She moving into the white house media?

“Two Major Middle East Terrorist Figures Die in their Safe Havens”
By Michael B. Kraft
July 5, 2010 10:41 PM
SNIPPET: “The deaths within days this weekend of two major figures behind major Middle East terrorist attacks and the possible death of a third last month should serve as a reminder of how long the terrorist threat has been with us — and the difficulty in taking action against terrorists when they enjoy safe havens.
In Damascus, Mohammed Oudeh, better known as Abu Daoud — the mastermind of the 1972 massacre of Israel athletes at the Munich Olympics, died Friday of kidney failure at the age of 73.
In Beirut Lebanon on Sunday morning, a liver hemorrhage claimed the life of Grand Ayatollah Mohammed Hussein Fadlallah, the Shiite spiritual leader of the Iranian-backed Hezbollah terrorist organization which conducted the 1983 bombings of the barracks of the U.S. and French peacekeeping forces and the U.S. embassy. The group was also involved in the kidnappings of dozens of American and other Western hostages in Lebanon in the 1980’s. He was 75.
Both deaths were announced separately by the families or associates.
In an unconfirmed report last month, the German press agency DPA reported that a drone missile strike in Pakistan on June 19 killed Mohammad Ali Hamadeh, a Lebanese Hezbollah member who was accused of killing of an American Navy diver, Robert Stethem during the hijacking of TWA 847 flight to Beirut 25 years ago in June, 1985. However State Department officials said they could not confirm the report when it came out and DOD did not respond to a query.
Both the Munich Olympics attacks and the Beirut bombings had wide ranging consequences although not necessarily those intended by the perpetrators.
In the Munich massacre, 11 Israeli Olympic team members were killed, either outright by the Palestinian Black September terrorists, or during a botched rescue operation by German security officials. In the bombings a decade later in Beirut, 241 U.S. marines were killed and 58 French paratroopers were killed by nearly simultaneous suicide truck bomb attacks in October, 1983. In the earlier suicide bombing American embassy attack in April, 60 persons were killed, including 17 Americans.”
