when i was in dallas last month while surfing the tele, i came across a primetime show on CNN called "Glenn Beck". As the israeli-hizballa war was going on, it was the target of this persons "musings", this guy is so so right wing that you cant even begin to try to counter him.. hes like we the western world are the best and the custodian of peace etc etc while the muslims are all that can be wrong.. come on man thats clowning..
since i am back in the timezone i watch this programme.. right now this guy is giving the "western world" a crsh course in understanding the muslim world.. hes trying to define the use of some arabic words in the context of current world and not in the context they were originaly coined.. like Takeyya , shariaa law, the concept of divorce in particular to show that the western world is better then the muslims and that the only way to handle the islamic radicals is to nuke em... man this guy has forgotten what is happening in his own backyard.. no mention is made about the plural marriage happening in utah..
this guy is like the right wings chaps in india, the hawks in BJP, RSS etc who share his views.. of course there reasons are different but the final destination is the same.. the only saving grace for us is that in india such people do not have open access media.. in US this is not the case and there in lies the problem, a guy like this with full access to the people on a prime time channel like CNN is bad.. very bad.. now more then ever i belive in the saying "God Bless America"
