Reply #37: Can't you divine the difference between coverage of some assholes [View All]

shooting off their mouths, and the editorial position of a television station?

You cannot possibly be so obtuse that you can't tell the difference.

A bunch of Orthodox sumbitches whining and yelling hate speech would be NO DIFFERENT than a bunch of Shi'a on the street doing the same thing. That's NEWS. You can even follow that sort of clip up with a discussion. And the people doing the discussing can say dispicable things.

BUT....and read this carefully, please...when the station prepares broadcasts of Hizb'Allah fighters shooting off their weapons, as editorial commentary accompanied by songs that aren't as peppy as Borat's "Throw the Jew Down the Well" but advocate the same actions, and Nasrallah goes on TV and says shit like the Jews invented the holocaust, the land needs to be cleansed of all JEWS, not Israelis, JEWS, and Jerusalem should be overseen by the Shi'a, and the children's programming depicts Jews as apes, well, IMO, that crosses a line.

If you don't feel that way, and believe that sort of speech is simply wrong on a human level, then you have a very different worldview than I do.
