Can you expand on this? It doesn't sound like anything that's been talked about today.

4. sorry

but your post doesnt make much sense!

HiJackers, sounds like a brand name...

[sociopath]

5. Hmm...

Me thinks me saw this somewhere...

I'm sure it was on the AOL welcome screen but alas it's not there anymore.

"paper Praising HiJackers!" - there is a newspaper which specialised in praising hijackers?

UK Al Qaeda Sympathizers Cancel Pro-9/11 Events

A spokesman for the al Muhajiroun group told a London news conference that the events, which have drawn the attention of police, were canceled because "all four venues have pulled out." He declined to elaborate.

Al Muhajiroun, which describes Osama bin Laden's al Qaeda network as its "Muslim brothers," has been widely denounced by mainstream Muslim groups in Britain for praising the hijackers who carried out the 2001 attacks in New York and Washington that killed more than 3,000 people.

British authorities say they are monitoring the group's statements to make sure it does not break laws against ethnic hatred or incitement to violence.

I apologise that we haven't found something to charge them with yet.

7. Bingo Muriel but they also said they took out ads in the paper

How is Fox to blame for reporting hate?

Note: the main Al Muhajiroun website appears to be down right now.

Of course, there was quite a bit of pro-terrorist sentiment in Britain (and around the world) on 9-11 ... no surprise that it's still there:

9. They are to blame

because they report hate from one side, and actually do the hating themselves for the other side. Its sanitised and more subtle but just the other side of the same coin.

I think "pro-terrorist" sentiment is a bit innacurate, "anti-US" sentiment would be more appropriate. Its not like people are saying they want terrorism of any kind just for the hell of it.

Its only going to get worse i'm afraid as events goad normally peaceful people into action.

10. Um, it's a tribute in praise of the 9-11 terrorists

How the hell is that not "pro-terrorist?"

Yeah, of course, "events" goad "normally peaceful people" into "action."

Some people are terrorist supporters. Others are merely apologists. That's a distinction that I've come to understand quite well.

[NNN0LHI]

11. And others seem to get off on people jumping to their deaths n/t

[Blitz]

12. Yes, of COURSE

I "get off" on people dying.

What a sick thing to say. Entirely expected.

[NNN0LHI]

13. Go invade Iraq or something. Would you? n/t

[Nottingham]

14. Out of all the News Networks today Only Faux was fueling Hate

Faux main purpose was to get Americans furious at the Terrorists and those people who support them!

Its like my gut reaction when on 9/11 I saw Palestinians laughing and dancing in the streets

What is the intention of this kinda of reporting

It upset me and I try not to watch that channel but when your surf you are bound to see those images. Faux News is adding the fuel to Hatred in this world

15. One simple solution...

A friend of mine suggested that I just delete the FNC (channel 69 where I live) from the TV's stations - in other words, you can instruct your TV to ignore certain channels. I did it, and can report that it's as if your TV set has passed its kidney stones.

16. Ya Know David thats a Helluva Great Idea!

I'll try to talk the other people in my family into it But I would Love that! Major Thanks :bounce:

17. Hi david_vincent!!

Welcome to DU!! :toast:

[bearfartinthewoods]

19. damn...defending fox is not my gig but

i'm sensing the feeling that they should not have reported this piece of news which reports on people celebrating the hijackers?
just how deeply into the sand would you all want me to stick my head?

[Kamika]

18. fox may escalate hate..

But those groups praising the hijackers sure helps them
