Title: The Guardian: Fox News "literally – working for al-Qaida and Isis’s media arm"
Post by: blacken700 on February 05, 2015, 07:48:29 AM
The Guardian has posted an article about FOX New's embedding ISIS's latest snuff film, unedited on their webpage:


Fox News has chosen to embed on its website the video of Islamic State burning a hostage to death, a move which makes them the only US media organization to broadcast the video in full.

The extremely graphic 22-minute video shows Muadh al-Kasasbeh, a Jordanian pilot, being set on fire and burned to death in a cage. Fox News did not post the videos of the killings of previous Isis hostages, and no other media company has hosted this video.


The Guardian however, notes that ISIS supporters are quite thankful for FOX's hosting help:


On Twitter, accounts associated with Isis supporters are sharing the video via the links to the Fox News site. One account, which regularly posts pro-Isis slogans and updates about Islamic State ‘victories’ in battle, tweeted boastfully that “Whoever is looking for the al-Furqan version (of the video), here it is and it cannot be deleted because it is on an American network.” Al-Furqan is Isis’ media outlet.



And Terrorism experts seem to agree:


Rick Nelson, a senior associate in homeland security and terrorism at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, said that posting the video actually empowers Isis.

... “These groups need a platform, and this gives them a platform,” he added.

Malcolm Nance, the executive director of the Terror Asymmetrics Project on Strategy, Tactics and Radical Ideology thinktank and an expert on counter-terrorism and radical extremism told the Guardian that by posting the video Fox News was propagating “exactly what Isis wants to propagate”.
.....

“(Fox News) are literally – literally – working for al-Qaida and Isis’s media arm,” he added.


“They might as well start sending them royalty checks.”

Ah...no! What it's there for is to show evil. Unlike Obama and your leftists pansies who refuse to call Islamic radicals the enemy...Fox shows them for what they are.

You know i hate FOX but this is just bullshit.

They report what happened like they should.

I never thought i would say this but props to FOX for being the only network showing this.

Things doesnt disappear because you dont look.

Everyone has access to the video once it hits the internet.  I don't need to watch it, but I think any benefit they get through recruiting is outweighed by shining the light on those cockroaches and showing the world how barbaric they are.

A lot of other people might watch.  I think the hundreds or thousands that watch it will be appalled, which outweighs the handful of animals that might actually find it appealing and try to volunteer for ISIS.  I doubt people are going to start lining up to join ISIS after watching a video of someone being burned alive.

That depends.  If the doc's diagnosis makes sense, then yes I would accept their diagnosis and recommended treatment plan.  If it didn't make sense, I'd get a second opinion.  Plus, doctors go to medical school, have a medical license, board certifications, etc.

What do these "terrorism experts" have?  And even if we assume they are "experts," they can still be wrong.

Still that's censurship and i dont believe in that.

If people see this and feel compelled to join ISIS they are fucked in the head and would do so anyway because of some other event in the future.

I understand your point i just dont agree with it :)

The second opinion would be based on my own assessment of the doc's advice.  Or I might just disagree and not take the doc's advice.  That's that whole independent thinking at work there.

That looks pretty impressive.  My credentials?  An average Joe American citizen who thinks for himself.  So, in this instance, I'd be interested to hear their input on how to combat ISIS.  That doesn't mean I will agree with everything they say.

When are you libtards gonna wake up.  Everything about the West is a 'recruiting tool' for these psychos.

Why don't we stop women from voting or start trashing gay people.  If we don't they can use that to recruit more psychos!  ::)

Also, it's very funny watching Blacken fake argue the issue with his whork gimmick, lol.

Generally yes.  But if what they say doesn't make sense then I don't care what their credentials are.  Just look at the president.  Cannot get better credentials than being the POTUS.  But even he doesn't know what the heck he's talking about sometimes.

in the PAST, sure, we gave weapons, training, intel, money and coverage to groups of bad guys who were working to further military and political agendas we had.  But that was in the 80s, 90s, and 2000s.   


We don't do that shit anymore.

I think Bruce Jenner's sex change and "deflate-gate" are also primary recruiting tools for ISIS. To stop encouraging terrorism, we need our government to censor the internet, all news stories and institute blasphemy laws.

Once that happens, ISIS will be "degraded" and America can declare victory.
