Giving aid and comfort to the enemy is treason my friend. Have you heard what he said?
To: KantianBurke
He has a record of bashing the US military.
He was involved in that blood liable saying our troops use Sarin gas on civilians in Nam. (In that incident 2 CNN staff were fired and Arnett got a reprimand)
During Desert Storm he was fired by CNN.
Now gave aid and comfort to the enemy.

I think he should stick close to one of his beloved Iraqi generals and see "up close and presonal" how the US "loses" war.

The one exception that springs to mind is Lord Haw Haw's broadcasts for the Nazis from Berlin.

I dont remember any WWII correspondents giving Goebbels interviews and claiming the Allies were losing and had to review their battle plans. Were there anti-war protestors in the streets across America then? NO. Were there Congressman liars like Rangle saying our troops were intentionally bombing women and children then? NO.

Illbay wouldn't know reality if it drove over him. Tailwind was a fake story based upon a senile nursing home patient and a alcoholic street ex-soldier. Arnett blindly read the voiceover. This time he is actively supporting a enemy of our men, at a time of war. Naturally this isn't obvious to IB.

NO.of course there were. america first, for one. the anti-war movement was substantially bigger and more organized then, in fact, than it is now.

They knew back then that if they pulled this stuff, they were toast. They are finding our now.

Bwa-ha-haaaa! That must be a record for total media capitulation to viewer outrage! Talk about folding like a cheap suit! I figured it would at least take a full business day for NBC and National Geographic to realize what a crisis they had on their hands; instead it was all settled in the middle of the night on Monday morning!
Anyway, if Arnett at least had the balls to apologize live on-air (which he did, so much and so often that it was almost sad), so can I. I hereby apologize to NatGeo for saying they were a bunch of leftists that would be downright gleeful about his comments and the anger they caused. I still think they're a bunch of leftists, but at least they've got the brains to realize when they've really crossed the line.

Since he's no longer employed and not worth any more propaganda value, does this mean the Iraqis will take him out back and give him a smoke and a blindfold?His next job will be a Taxi driver in Iraq. You know the kind. "Amercian liberator. Please, can you help me find this Address? Boom!"
The little traitor is going to be body double for the Saddam's UN representative Mohamed al Combover.
I hope he catches on with Al Jazeera actually.
To: KantianBurke
They made all that up. I was in Saigon when the "peace" treaty was signed in 1973. You couldn't see the end of the line of American deserters turning themselves in. Those cowards didn't hide in the jungle, they stayed in the cities.

General Singlaub is a wonderful gentleman. During CPAC conference I had the honor to be at the same table during the conference. To look at him you would never know that he was such a warrior.
He rescued 400 POW's in a mission during WW2.
Member of OSS during WW2.
One of original members of CIA
Bucked Carter when Carter wanted to take our troops out of S. Korea.

I am not American.
Can someone tell me what are the grounds for revoking American citizenship?
It seems to me Arnett has fulfilled them.

He basically said the U.S. plan wasn't working and stated that because of his reporting, people in the U.S. were questioning the U.S. position He thinks it's because of him? No lack of self-esteem here, is there?
Maybe with all his vast network reporting expertise he can get a job at Al-Jazeera.
