You're encouraging terrorism against Americans? What a regrettable statement.

The MSM is American? I don't believe you.

Oh Reuters reporters...They are probably just getting their latest briefing in person.

Not too promising. The same thugs held Terry Anderson for 7 years.

cousair said "our MSM". Since the MSM supports the terrorists, any action against them by the terrorists is red on red, not a cause for tears.

ALARM - Two journalists introduced as removed, relachés by the police force

BEIRUT - Two British journalists, introduced as removed by Hezbollah by a senior police officer, in fact were briefly retained by the police force and slackened, a person in charge for the Lebanese police force indicated.

Terrorists do not distinguish between conservative and liberal Americans. We're all the same to them. We should not condone terrorist acts against any American based on their political views.

I'm not sure what that means, exactly, but it sounds better than kidnapped by Hezbollah!

The gist of #48 is - the British journalists were not abducted by Hezbollah. They were briefly detained by the Lebanon police and released.

Sheikh Hassan Nasrallah is responsible for all of this. Hezbollah needs to be wiped out like the cockroaches that they are. [More Photos Here]

I see your point and agree in most instances. The MSM do not consider themselves to be American. Do you remember the flap when FOX started wearing American flags? Why should I be concerned when a fifth columnist of the fourth estate either gets eliminated from the list of living liberals or develops mugged liberal syndrome?
