Last Friday, the sitting president of Egypt the worlds 15th most populous nation was exposed for calling Jews apes and pigs. And he did it in a TV interview (in Arabic) in 2010, less than two years before he took office.
Needless to say, this was HUGE NEWS for American mass media! Only it wasnt. (Knock, knock, New York Times? Anybody home?) In fact, to be fair to the paper of record, not a single major outlet has covered it. Not AP or Reuters. Not CBS News or CNN. Not Time magazine or U.S. News & World Report. Not the Washington Post or the Wall Street Journal. Etcetera. And therein lies a story a big story that this column can only begin to skin open here.
Mohamed Morsis bizarre Apes-and-Pigs rant hit the Jerusalem Posts homepage that same day (again, last Friday), as its lead story. Specifically, a prestigious U.S. organization named the Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI) chaired by Oliver Buck Revell, a former deputy head of the FBI in charge of counter-terrorism released it widely to the global media and posted it on YouTube.

Well-meaning journalists have told me that exposing this kind of stuff is serving the enemies of peace."Well-meaning" was meant ironically I hope. Leftists regard the annihilation of the Jews -- ie finishing up Hitler's Holocaust -- as the road to peace.
By George, I think you’ve got it!
I still don’t understand why most MSM journalists, many of whom are Jewish, would shoot themselves in the head before saying a word about this.
POTUS being a moooslim then why not.
It is time for all Americans to realize that the “4th Estate” is really the “5th Column”.
The media never covers bearded savages acting like bearded savages, especially when an affirmative action president has made them his bosom-buddies.
And the media have an orgy when a normal person says “macaca” or “Barney Fag.”
Your eyes will only see what they want you to see...nothing more. Your job, to figure out who "they" are.
