Larry and Sergey: American Success Stories? Or – Willing Dhimmis for Hezbollah and Iran

Larry and Sergey: American Success Stories?  Or – Willing Dhimmis for Hezbollah and Iran

I have posted previously of Google’s despicable practices of cooperating with the Internet censorship policies of the Chinese Government (by , among other things, providing the Chinese Government  with a “sanitized” version of Google, known as Google.cn, on the one hand, and its voluntary furnishing of critical targeting information to terrorists worldwide via its Google Earth entity.

Now, Google has added another mark of shame to its name: Conferring “legitimate news source” status on Al-Manar, the agitprop mouthpiece for the Lebanon-based (but Iran-funded) terrorist organization Hezbollah.  (Hat tip: Michelle Malkin.)

Lgf has a great piece and discussion thread on Google’s fondness for al-Manar here.

Hezbollah hates Israel and hates America.  Hezbollah has killed Israelis and has killed Americans.  It continues to target Israel.

Meanwhile, we learn that Google refuses to grant news –source status to littlegreenfootballs or Michelle Malkin, which are probably two of the best unclassified sources of news on Islamofascist happenings around the world available today.

So, it seems that Larry and Sergey – Google’s much heralded billionaire whiz kid founders (neither of whom, I strongly suspect, ever served a day in their lives in the US military) – obviously have precious little appreciation for the country (and its traditions of liberty) that gave them the opportunity to make their billions.

I have heard Michael Savage derisively refer to these two individuals as “gel-haired kids” on his talk radio show, particularly when discussing the potential utility of Google Earth to terrorists targeting our boys in uniform in Iraq.

However, I sense that Google is attempting to pre-emptively placate the Islamofascists OUT OF FEAR in treating Al-Manar as a legitimate news source.

If I am correct, then Larry and Sergey are willing Dhimmis for the terrorists of Hezbollah and their Iranian money-men.

So, instead of using their fortunes and their corporate creation as vehicles to spread true liberty around the world, Larry and Sergey have become purveyors of pornography and terrorist news spin, to say nothing of willing co-conspirators of the murderers of Tiananmen Square.

I hate to tell you this gunjam, but many media outlets around the world are controlled by one group or another. At least with Al Manar, we know who they represent. Other news sources claim they're "independent" when that isn't really true.

hi, elizabeth: You are THE number one (non-Muslim) Islamofascist apologist I know of. Al-Manar is the mouthpiece of murderers. Should Google treat them as a legitimate media source? P.S. I am aware that no media source appears in a vacuum. Can you not distinguish between, say, an al-Manar, and an AP? (I despise both, but at different levels.) -- gunjam

I admit that I have never actually watched Al Manar, but in general I do not believe in censorship. There's a lot of stuff on the radio and even tv in the U.S. that I find grossly objectionable. Yes, there is a difference between Al Manar and AP (actually the AP functions to a great degree as a conglomeration; at least it did when I was a reporter). However I personally find "Little Green Footballs," The New York Sun, Ann Coulter, Don Imus and Rush Limbaugh to be beneath contempt. Yet I am not trying to get them banned. And don't try to tell me "they never advocated murder" because in fact some of them have.

I just took a lot at the Al Manar website and actually, it seems pretty much like a regular news site, although with particular attention to certain stories...quite different from Little Green Footballs which is a commentary blog...I think that is the main difference.

I didn't see any "Death to America" on the Al Manar site.

hi, elizabeth! Thank you for your comment. I am amazed that you find such a WIDE variety of media outlets in this country "beneath contempt." There is a WIDE gap in quality and POV between, say, an Imus, and lgf. Funny: You are comfortable with Al-Manar, but hate Coulter . . . . When do you buy your burkha? -- gunjam

Very funny.

What those different media have in common is vile language, insults, and bias.

hi, elizabeth! let's see, if al-manar justifies terror against the Jews, but does so with respectable language -- that is okay. But if a Coulter or a lgf defends our country (using a naughty turn of phrase here and there), you are offended? Furthermore, as a former journalist, surely you must know that NO ONE (certainly not AP, al-Reuters, or AFP, for instance) comes to the table without their biases. The difference between a Limbaugh, or a Coulter, or a Charles Johnson (who runs lgf), and -- say -- a Pitman or a Cokie Roberts, is that the former are HONEST enough to ADMIT UPFRONT that they are biased, whereas the Pitmans and Robertses feign some kind of "objective neutrality" while all the while shilling and spinning for their dhimmi, anti-military, anti-patriotic POV. The truth is not always presented in the prettiest packages. -- gunjam

We seem to agree that the media in general is biased. We disagree about the underlying motives. I don't believe Ann Coulter or LGF are defending this country, although it's possible they THINK they are. I think they are endangering this country, not only by making Americans look bad, but also by increasing the ignorance of the US electorate, hence leading to bad decisions at the polls.

hi, elizabeth! Well, i guess, this time, we once again must agree to disagree: I think Coulter and lgf are exactly what this country needs. Also, what is best for us is rarely perceived favorably by the Islamofascist, Euroweenies, petty dictators, and Communists of the world -- which is pretty much the rest of the world. So, if they DON'T like it, that is fine with me. -- gunjam
