Ah, that's better.

The pandering MSM is not enough for the Muslim Brotherhood? Now they need their own channel? No way. I'll drop my cable subscription if they pick up Al Jazeera.

Nuclear Apartheid, Neo-McCarthyism...the litany of ludicrous analogies continues.

They are patient, persistent, and deadly.

And most people refuse to read the Times. I'd say they're pretty smart.

Al Jazeera English premiered here in South Africa on Multichoice Digital Satellite this year. Multichoice is the largest and most prolific broadcasting service on the African continent so now Al Jazeera reaches from Cape Town to Nigeria and Northern Africa. The other "news services" on offer on the same channel range include BBC, CNN, Sky News, SABC Africa and EuroNews along with an African version of CNBC.

I keep wondering how this moron keeps getting re-elected.

I need to research "McCarthysim", but from what I've heard, there actually was a lot of substance behind the concern of communists infiltrating America.

But, over all, its striving for balanced reporting from a distinct perspective seems genuine.

You cannot have balanced reporting if you go into it with any kind of perspective.

There, fixed.

al Jazeera is enemy propaganda. Trouble is, as long as the administration fails to identify its true enemies (in the Arabian Peninsula and elsewhere), we can't label it as such and exclude it from our midst.

It's creating a fifth column in the US and it is radicalizing impressionable youth.

I need to research "McCarthysim", but from what I've heard, there actually was a lot of substance behind the concern of communists infiltrating America.

Start with Ann Coulter for the appetizer and proceed to M. Stanton Evans for the main meal.

LLL's are fond of claiming that Iraq is about taking their oil... and yet, there are dozens of things we'd be doing differently if that was the case (including siezing the oil fields!)

The same applies to this nonsense about McCarthyism. If that were true, not only would the gov't have won its case against the HLF, but there would have been cases against CAIR and many other fellow travellers. And the government would have won convictions on those counts too. There would not be Islamists coming to visit Columbia or Harvard, being appointed to various government panels and agencies.

OK, so much for the things that ought to be true in order for us to defeat the jihad. McCarthyism was a witch-hunt era. It entailed a lot more than not cavorting with people who are openly sworn to our destruction.

If we lived in a McCarthyist era about Islam today, then large numbers of cases with little to no evidence would result in convictions. Muslims (and non-Muslims with funny-sounding names) would lose their jobs, visas would not be renewed. Journalists and newspapers would be invited to a private session and told, in no uncertain terms, how to bias their reporting against Muslims.

No, folks, if this were a McCarthy era, it would be bloody obvious.

Not true. Joe McCarthy was just a demagogue who took advantage of the legitimate fear of Communist infiltration of the US government. People who were Communists were found out anyway, and no one needed McCarthy to root them out. Now I think the term "McCarthyism", like the term "racism", is overused even when there is legitimate concern. But that doesn't mean we should whitewash McCarthy's legacy.

OT - The latest threats from al-Qaeda (from MEMRI TV):

Al-Qaeda Leader Abu Yahya Al-Liby: We Will Continue the Jihad until All the People in the World Submit to the Rule of Islam

Al-Liby: Only a few years ago, America, which is one of the major evildoers of this era, would brag about its power and boast about its army and military equipment. Everyone was subjugated to it and surrendered to its decisions. Nobody criticized America or objected to it. They were all just begging and pleading, kissing the threshold of the White House and the shoes of its politicians. But today – where is America? Where are its power and its hollow pomp? Whatever happened to the slogan: "You are either with us or against us"? Where are all the threats and warnings? Whatever happened to the vanity and arrogance of the American army and politicians? Whatever happened to the worth of the American soldier, the killing of whom used to make headlines in all the media? Today, these soldiers are dragged through the streets of Baghdad, hung on the bridges of Fallujah, rolled on the rocks of Afghanistan, and burned to charcoal in the heart of its capital, Kabul. Nonetheless, reports of these matters pass unnoticed – if they receive any mention at all in the media – and are not considered marginal reports, unworthy of air time on news bulletins...

re:

Investigation of the "McCarthy era" has revealed that there were many communist sympathizers, especially in Hollywood and the state department. Witness the British defectors Kim Philby and others who penetrated British MI5 and MI6 and compromised many western intelligence operations. The Philby cell were all graduates of Rhodes with communist sympathies recruited by the KGB for espionage. All of this is history.
The liberals and the NYT would have us all believe that Communism offered no threat to the west and that McCarthyism was just a huge mistake, much like the US government interning all Japanese-Americans in WWII. This is not the case and the liberals conveniently forget all the millions of civilians killed by communism in the twentieth century. As bad as Hitler was, Communism has killed about 10 times more people than the Nazi's.
This selective memory enables liberals to designate President Bush as a war-criminal whilst ignoring the real killers of humanity like Kim Jong II of North Korea.

re:

Slightly OT
Look at this article on the Dark Web project. Read the whole thing. The Dark Web Project could be a very valuable tool in the war against Islamic extremism.

Tens of thousands of Web pages are now devoted to terrorist propaganda designed to attract followers. On the surface, the messages and videos reveal little about their creators. But programmers and writers leave digital clues: the greetings and other words they choose, their punctuation and syntax, and the way they code multimedia attachments and Web links.
Researchers at the University of Arizona are developing a tool that uses these clues to automate the analysis of online jihadism. The Dark Web project aims to scour Web sites, forums and chat rooms to find the Internet's most prolific and influential jihadists and learn how they reel in adherents.

Lab director Hsinchun Chen hopes Dark Web will crimp what he calls "al-Qaida University on the Web," the mass of Web sites where potential terrorists learn their trade, from making explosives to planning attacks. Experts said they are not aware of any comparable effort, though some said the project may have only limited applications.

The project in the university's Artificial Intelligence Lab will not identify people outside cyberspace "because that involves civil liberties," Chen said, preferring to let law enforcement and intelligence analysts take over from there. Instead, it will help identify messages with the same author and reveal links that aren't obvious.

"Our tool will help them ID the high-risk, radical opinion leaders in cyberspace," Chen said.

I think this is fascinating.

Comparative courses in how Al Jazeera, CNN, the BBC and U.S. networks portray the Iraq war and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict should be taught in all U.S. high schools and colleges. Al Jazeera English should be widely available.

So now that, we're told, liberals all really know that McCarthy was right all along, I guess this means that calling keeping al-Jazeera off "Neo-McCarthyism" means that they're saying they approve?

re: #106 buzzsawmonkey

1) McCarthy--despite all his hearings, all his "investigations," all his (undocumented) accusations, removed not one communist from the United States government.

I blame the Democrats who constantly fought against him, both in the hearings, but also via the newspapers.

2) Measured by results, his "campaign against communists" must therefore be considered a failure.

Again, the blame falls on the Demcorats. FDR and Truman were BOTH very defensive of Hiss.

3) His recklessness in accusation and his inability to document charges brought the very enterprise of removing communists from the goverment into disrepute, from which that enterprise has never recovered. On that score, McCarthy must be considered a failure.

For a third time, I still blame the Democrats.

4) Private citizen Whittaker Chambers, with none of the government apparatus at his command which Joseph McCarthy could claim, was nonetheless responsible for the conviction (on perjury charges) and removal from office of Alger Hiss. This makes private citizen Chambers a more effective communist-hunter than Senator McCarthy.

Private Citizen Chambers WAS a soviet spy who defected to our side. He had the DOCUMENTS, and even when providing those he was cast off as a kook and blacklisted for most of his life by the same liberals that bash McCarthy.

5) McCarthy attacked not only communists, but homosexuals, as security risks subject to blackmail. His attacks made homosexuals more vulnerable to dismissal, therefore more subject to blackmail--thus exacerbating a security risk problem which he was claiming to address.

In what way is his stance on homosexuality in any way related to soviet spies?

6) McCarthy's chief counsel was in fact homosexual.

Again, in what way is his stance on homosexuality REMOTELY related to his views on communism?

7) Whether McCarthy was himself a communist agent or not, his failure to actually remove a single communist from government and the disrepute which his tactics brought to such campaigns could not have served the communists better if he had intended them to.

You're not SERIOUS suggesting that McCarther was a communist agent, are you?

8) In the course of his (unsuccessful) "campaigns" against communists, McCarthy was responsible for suspicion falling upon many citizens who had no way to clear their names.

List them. List the names of the 'many citizens' that McCarthy pointed out during his 'campaigns' that ended up NOT being proven to be a communist spy/supporter.

9) The fact that Soviet documents confirm the presence of communists in the American government in no way excuses McCarthy's excesses, or his failures.

Again... he only failed because the Democrats who opposed him were SUPPORTING those that were later proven to be soviet spies. (For which no democrat has yet to apologize for, I might add)

that McCarthy may have inadvertently named a communist in the course of his clown act is no reflection of virtue upon him--particularly as there is no record of his ever having removed a communist from office.

not A communist.... he named around 200 of them, and apart from one or two, they were ALL proven to have been soviet spies. ALL OF THEM... yet you treat him like some crackpot without giving any sort of alternative action that he could have done.

At best, McCarthy was an incompetent fool. Whether he was actually an out and out fraud, or--worse--a double agent, I leave to others to determine. But he was not, under any str
