If, as the Pentagon alleges, criticizing the United States government is terrorism, I’d say we have a lot more than the ex-Gitmo prisoners to worry about.

George in Toronto offered a youtube video entitled:

“Feeling the Hate In Jerusalem on Eve of Obama’s Cairo Address”.

Clearly the people we see in this video are real trash. However it is unhelpful to create a video of a few drunken posturing teenage bigots and in so doing leave the impression that they are representative of all the Jews in occupied Palestine.

Perhaps they are, and if so the inflammatory impact of the video is somewhat appropriate. Otherwise its just a case of distortion on top of distortion. Not useful.

The world needs an accurate assessment of range of opinion among the Jews over there. An informed citizenry requires reality-based info.

The FCM (Fawning Corporate Media) – as ray McGovern accurately terms it – strikes again! Our tax dollars already fund Pentagon propaganda and lies. We don’t need the NY Times and other media enhancing those lies.
