To: who knows what evil?
I have no idea what EXACTLY he was referring to, but there WERE a lot of "urban legends" that grew up right after the 9/11 attacks. The most famous example I can recall is the Budweiser vs. Celebrating Arabs yarn (A real, real popular one that was posted here dozens of times).

Like I said, without having seen this I'm not sure what Zogby refers to. Zogby's not a "bad guy," but like most "minorities" in the U.S. today, he thinks FIRST of "group rights" and only afterward of the wounding we ALL shared as Americans.

Not having a transcript it's hard to say, but I have a strong suspicion that Zogby was referring to Arabs/Muslims CELEBRATING IN THE US as an urban legend.

And it's indisputable that many of these reports, and I suspect the majority, were urban legends.

Is it possible that this actually happened in some locations? Possibly.

But it's someone disturbing that these NEVER seem to be personal reports; they always seem to be someone else telling someone they saw it and it gets posted here. Sometimes it is people saying family members told them but it's suspicious that it's always "A friend saw them celebrating" or "My son saw them celebrating."

He is a bad guy. I've seen him lay the spin on hot and heavy. By spin I mean pro-Islamic spin and the louse is an Arab of Christian ancestry. I am sure he gets paid well for his shilling. By a foreign power perhaps?
