NBC Panel Scolds Prince Harry: 'Why Do You Need to Antagonize the Taliban?'
NewsBusters ^

Posted on 01/23/2013 3:56:15 PM PST by chessplayer

During a panel discussion on Wednesday's NBC Today, attorney Star Jones and the network's chief medical editor Nancy Snyderman hyperventilated over Britain's Prince Harry revealing in interviews that he killed Taliban fighters during combat in Afghanistan. Jones fretted: "Why do you need to antagonize the Taliban?"

Snyderman chimed in: "I thought he jumped the shark when he was shown playing video games and then it was, 'Oh my God, we killed people.'" Co-host Matt Lauer sparked the exchange by wondering: "He talks about his missions, the missions he went on where he was fired upon by the Taliban and returned fire, killing some members of the Taliban. And he takes it kind of matter-of-factly....What do you think about it? Is it okay?"

Do these airheads realize that anyone who isn’t a Muslim antagonizes the Islamist radicals?

Well, someone shoots at you, you shoot back. Pretty simple really.

Just being a living non-Islamist antagonizes them. So effem. Hell, even other tribes of Islamists antagonize them.

Go ahead and kill them, but don't make them feel bad about it!

15 yards, personal foul, for taunting.

The last thing we want to do is get the enemy mad at us!

The media has long past becoming a parody of itself. You couldn’t write a SNL skit that was more a mockery.

I'd love to see Prince Harry bust one of these NBC talking heads, up-side their head!

These Libs and metrosexuals see a real man, and they just aren't sure how to respond.

Liberals are like sheep. Why does the sheep antagonize the wolf by looking so tasty?

They are upset because he kills the enemy. Good grief.

You don’t reason with a rattlesnake. They are, precisely, unreason-able. You kill it.

The talliban is a rattlesnake.

If you kill a Talibabi, are you as an Englishman required to break out in tears? What does the media want him to do?

The man is a hero in my eyes.

"Why do you need to antagonize the Taliban?"

He doesn't "need" to antagonize them - he wants to kill them!

Are they expecting him to burst into tears for them? Say he’s sorry for what he does? Maybe he really is that non-nonchalant about it, because he sees that he is saving others. Maybe he has deeper feelings, but the media has proven time and again that they are not worth sharing those with.
