Greg Jarret Dumps on a Hamas Spokesman!

[ConservativeMan55]

Greg Jarret just interviewed the spokesman for Hamas and he ripped into him...at times getting emotional. Now I've seen Greg's work before and I always thought he was a liberal? Has he switched teams? Or was this an acting job?

Greg "Sir you say Hamas stands for courage, but it does not. Hamas stands for cowardice in its worst form. I've been to your bombings and seen the ripped flesh of innocent civilians."

"Sir are you going to continue your reign of terror on the innocent civilians of Israel? Will you not be satisfied until Israel is pushed into the sea? Isn't it true you want Abu Mazzen to fail????"

Who is Greg Jarret?

[pitinkie]

I saw it and was cheering!!!!

[cgk]

I saw it as well, and I was VERY impressed. Usually I only see that on the FNC's mornings with Kilmeade or Asman. He gave it to him, and good.

Wow! I've always turned off FNN when he comes on duty, perhaps I should give him another chance.

[reformedliberal]

I probably watch too much FNC, but I have never thought Gregg was a liberal. I saw most of the segment and loved it!

[bigfootbob]

He came to fame at Court TV during the OJ circus.

Greg Jaret used to be a reported in Wichita, Kansas. He was caught on the highway as a tornado raced by. He had the presence of mind to record and report on it as it was passing (photojournalist was there too) and voila! A star was born.

As to his political leanings, I don't remember. Sorry.

What did the Hamas guy say?

P.S. Greg is a lawyer & news show Host for ....FOX or CNBC...?? Must be FOX cause I watch it much more.

He's really gone after the libs internationally and domestically, regarding the Iraq war and U.S. anti-terror efforts.

[RAT Patrol]

I guess that's Gregg Jarrett.

[Dialup Llama]

I hope Hamas and Islamic Jihad 'spokesmen' are regarded in the media with the same contempt as would a Hitler spokesman. The typical CBS or CNN love affair with these people is revolting.

I've seen Greg's work before and I always thought he was a liberal?

Not all liberals are actively pro-terrorist.

Greg "Sir you say Hamas stands for courage, but it does not. Hamas stands for cowardice in its worst form. I've been to your bombings and seen the ripped flesh of innocent civilians."

No lib is capable of making that statement because the victims of the Palestinians are all in the way of utopia, and therefore, inanimate.

His presentation has turned me off..but he won a listener today!

[bigfootbob]

I'm responding to your tagline. Why the hell would you give him a dime? He's a wuss and not worth supporting. If anyone had a legitimate election fraud complaint it was him, but he laid down and showed his belly just like a submissive dog. We don't need his type in the senate, we have enough of them, Snow, Chafee, Spectre, Hatch, etc.!

[MEG33]

You prefer a dim?

[scubadave]

Is this the same G Jarrett from KGO-AM radio in SF? He was a reporter during Desert Storm and a friend/colleague of Lee Rodgers, before KGO purged its conservatives to hire future NPR freaks (unknowns like Malveaux, Krassney, Ward, Taliafaro, ad nauseum)..

[FourPeas]

He tends to be pretty aggressive. I've seen him do similar sorts of intereviews before. He's definitely not liberal, but he is a pitbull.

His name is Ismail Abu Shanab. Here's some more from the interview:

Jarret: "You & your group have just murdered a lot of innocent civilians, is that because you hate Jews and want them ... (gone) between the Mediterranean and Jordan River"?

Shanab: "This is a long question... please, We do not hate Jews. We have been suffering from Jews terror since 1948. I consider myself one of...the refugees who was expelled from our original towns - they put us - we are... living in refugee camps...the Israeli expulsion..."

Jarret: "Your group issued this statement: 'We will not stop our resistance as long as one Zionist breathes air.' That sir is a vow of genocide - How can you possibly say with any credibility that you don't hate Jews? and that your group isn't out to rid the world of all Jews?"

Shanab: "This statement - is directed - We are speaking about those occupying our land. It has nothing to do with any Jew living all over the world or who want to live in peace with the palestinian. It is against the military forces who are now occupying, who are killing innocent palestinian and causing suffering..."

Jarret: "When you deny what your group is about sir - I don't believe you. The Hamas covenant of 1988 - here's what is says in the first paragraph: 'Israel will exist until Islam will obliterate it' - Sir, you don't want Peace, do you? You don't want the road map, You don't want Abu Mazen to succeed, do you?"

Shanab: "You are working hard to research this hard - you speak words - but you neglect the whole reality, we have hundreds, thousands of Israeli troops killing, bringing blood to Palestinian land, please look at the ground and don't look at the words in the books - this is not the reality - we want to live in peace - let the Israeli withdraw from our land. I will give you thousands of papers of Israeli against Palestinian and Muslim... this is not the reality - we are human beings, we want to live in peace, let the Israeli withdraw from our land"

Jarret: "Yesterday on our air, Arafat condemned your attacks..."

Shanab: "No..."

yourthe attacks - is Arafat your enemy or is he your duplicitous partner in terror? Which is it?"

Shanab: "No, Arafat condemned the Israeli activity and condemned Palestinian resistance. That is up to Arafat, We want to live in peace"

Jarret: (see the quote that started this thread...)
