Interesting report in the news today.

ajb,

Indeed an interesting report. It reiterates what most of us already know, the Israelis planned this with the help of the US; they just needed an excuse...

This is an excellent article. It's so true, the US (and some UK and other) media is biased, preachy and detached from reality; their choice of words, content and unchallenged opinions reflect their bias in such an obvious manner. I wonder if those people that have been programmed to criticize Al Jaz...

freza

ironic statement, for sure.

excellent article, right?

I thought you'd been banned or something.

no, not yet, but any day I'll get banned - considering the oh-so-obvious bias of certain peeps here.

is this thread being hijacked? hope not

thanks for the interesting link valkyrie.

my score is: Economic Left/Right: -5.13
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -2.77

freza

(avoidance?? um, no. let me not avoid then: thanks for the unsolicited, off-topic and quite unnecessary advise).

This bias and narrow-minded media practice should not be typical; it's something you expect in a fascist dictatorial society not in the land of the free...what a shame...

freza

shafique I agree with you on your assesment of the people that watch the mainstream US media. But the fact that many Americans are politically apathetic and have choices to view other media channels does not in any way excuse the propaganda that exists and permeates US media. Truth is being hidden ...

Would you date someone if you know he/she’s a Muslim and you’re a devoted Catholic Christian? Coz what’s the point of investing your time and feelings when you know that at the end you will choose a different path. A Muslim should marry a Muslim especially Arabs and a Catholic would wish to be marr...

"Freza, I'm struggling to see who you are having a go at." I was responding to a post, period. Not having a go at anyone. Why would you think I'm having a go at someone :?: I think that the vast and overwhelming majority of US media is indeed biased, including the NY Times and better news...

freza

kanelli, You missed the point that Shafique initially missed too. Did you not read my complete reply? Again you state the obvious: That hypocrisy and spin exists in every country including Arab countries - well (((hello))) we know this already. My point (again) is that these Arab countries are NOT s...

freza

What a horrible story! It doesn't even seem like a happy ending for the poor girl - after so many years of suffering.

It's too bad the monster took his own life, he deserved to suffer the same way he made his victim suffer...

freza

kanelli, If you want to read criticisms of Arab regimes, why don't you start a thread on it? Simple as that. That's a good way for you to complain so much of others that don't agree with you and for you to bash, er, criticize Arab regimes. This thread was about something specific: US media and the w...

freza

kanelli, "Freza, so far you are the only person criticising my posting style, whereas you have received a flood of criticisms about the way you speak to people on here, and not just from me." Nope, not necessarily true, but if it makes you happy to believe this half-truth, then be happy. A...

freza

The article was so right especially the ending paragraph......... ppl are really afraid of speaking anything anti-Isreal cos of their career. I am amazed to see the support Isreali community has here in Canada and US. No I reiterate no country spreads propaganda like "Isreal and Canada togethe...

freza

Again, Freza, please re-read your posts and really think if you are writing like a teenager, or a grown adult. a little alien just accused me of being patronising...but I'm sure it wasn't you, I mean, c'mon, that wouldn't make any sense after the extremely patronising thingy you just wrote above :D...

freza

jag, I think you and your friend did the right thing in reporting the psycho. These kind of people need to learn that if they act stupid they might at the very least face being called up to the police station. I still think that the reason why there are so many selfish and dangerous drivers on Dubai...

freza

Ian and previous postees makes some very good points... One also has to consider that the US is a country of at least 297 million people with an illegal-status workforce numbering in the tens of millions - a great many under the radar of worker-protection laws. Human trafficking, below-minimum wages...

freza

There is comparison Freza, because the population numbers might be very different but I think you'll find the percentage of immigrant workers in the UAE far higher! Remember 80% of the population here is expat! Not local! Yes, expats are more numerous than locals but how many of those expats are ac...

freza

(Don't you use a proxy?) We're talking about immigrant exploitation not just expat labor. I asked you to share any data that you might have on slave labor specifically... but it's ok. Of course human tragedy of this type does bother me but it should bother the government even more. I do think that e...

freza

Freza, I do not have the luxury of time to go searching for facts and figures for you. There's a thing called Google - knock yourself out. But what I would say is that any figures would be distorted as of course many of the workers who're being exploited will not admit to it, for fear of being kick...

kanelli, "We all know that Israel views civilian areas as Hezbollah military targets. Why? Because Hezbollah attack from civilian areas." This statement is not only exagerrated but it contradicts what Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch have to say about Israel's use of cluster bo...

It would have been wiser if you would actually base your claims on facts rather than emotionally-tinged opinions. Also, defend your arguments, if you can....

I'm not wise, don't I wish... I hope I'll be wise after graduate school... but as a bonus tip: get rid of the phony smile.

IDF = Israel Defense Forces

freza

Freza, we should meet in person one day. And you can meet the other DFers too who have been my friends for heading towards a year now. Together we can educate you on whether I am a phony person or not. You are most welcome to join us sometime. Thanks for the invite. I've already met some DFers in p...

freza

Yup, exactly, Hezbollah did indeed win the hearts and minds of many people. I just hope they become stronger and don't stray far from their philosophies. The picture that many paint of them is far from accurate. But of course, if a country wants to launch an illegal war, it has to find an excuse to ...

ok ladies and gentlmen of the forum , i have a confession to make : oh and if any one knows my boss STOP READING NOW ... me ,myself and I slept on my desk sitting for 10 minutes and i even dreamt :shock: :shock: :shock: in the middle of the day ,infront of everyone 8) 8) just wanted to share , and ...

Liban i would totally agree with you how disgusting and disgraceful those pictures are. But i have to also agree with K. You must remember Liban the same thinng happen to many Kuwait women when Saddams troops invaded Kuwait. Like K, i am not saying any of it is "right", its just that this...
