New York Times Shills for Hamas (Again)

Wed, Jun 20, 2007 at 8:15:48 am PDT

Hamas terrorist or op-ed contributor to the New York Times?

Ahmed Yousef is both!

The newspaper that never seems to hit bottom shills for a murderous, genocidal terrorist group with fresh blood on its hands: What Hamas Wants.

Sadly, it became apparent that not all officials from Fatah were negotiating in good faith. There were attempts on Mr. Haniya’s life last week, and eventually we were forced into trying to take control of a very dangerous situation in order to provide political stability and establish law and order.

The streets of Gaza are now calm for the first time in a very long time. We have begun disarming some of the drug dealers and the armed gangs and we hope to restore a sense of security and safety to the citizens of Gaza. We want to get children back to school, get basic services functioning again, and provide long-term economic gains for our people.

I would say, “Shame on the New York Times.” But what’s the point?

UPDATE at 6/20/07 8:37:58 am:

Here’s New York Times op-ed contributor Ahmed Yousef in an appearance on Hizballah’s Al-Manar TV, explaining to the audience that Israel was behind the 9/11 attacks—just like the US was behind Pearl Harbor.
