Air America Host Accuses Troops Of Murder

Air America host Mike Malloy:

MALLOY: This [the war in Iraq] is on a level with the Hitlerian attitudes towards the Jews and towards the Russians. This is just butchery, this is just murder, my God.


Right. Liberating Iraq from a cruel dictator, setting up a government designed by the people, holding three democratic elections and rebuilding infrastructure all while battling cowardly, head-chopping insurgents is exactly like Hitler exterminating the Jews or Stalin exterminating his own people.

"My god" indeed. What's scary is that there is a faction of the American left that's eating this stuff up. Though that faction doesn't comprise of many people given Air America's ratings.

I used to listen to Mike Malloy here in Chicago on WLS-AM in the evenings. His show was funny in an unintentional way - there were hordes of callers that slipped by the call screeners and helped Mike make himself look foolish.

Naturally, because he is a leftist, his talk show failed miserably and he got booted off a major league station.

Now he is in the minors, working for Air America, but not for long hopefully.

No need to pay attention to the unmedicated rants of this desperate individual.

Sadly, I think we do have to pay attention.  These people are dangerous if you let their words go unchallenged.

I don’t know Rob, he is no more of a threat to our polity than a schizophrenic stumbling down the street yelling at fire hydrants.

And soon he will be gone - because after Air America fails, he will have no where left to go (pun intended).

Well, maybe Kos will set him up with a diary. And there, he will be championed as a visionary. And he will team up with Cindy Sheehan’s road show, and start a cult and convince all these people to join them and . . . WAIT A MINUTE!

STOP MIKE MALLOY!

Seriously Rob, you have a point. Even if he is a person with one foot in oblivion right now, these memes  do take on a life of their own and propagate themselves within the weaker brains among us.

Hate the meme, not the speaker.

Yeah, Ken, it’s not about any individual leftie, it’s about the same wrong ideas they continue to spout.  We need to stand up and refute them every time they spew their delusional stuff.  This is definitely a war of ideas.  That is why the terrorists parrot the leftie talking points.  They are birds of a feather.  Can’t win at the ballot box.

Two American and Seven British soldiers are alleged to have committed murder - and this is supposed to be ‘Hitlerian’?

SurrealityBasedBob, you seem to be in agreement with Malloy here, which means you suffer from the same lack the historical context he and so many other leftists seem to share.

For your informaton, Hitler killed millions of people. I don’t know if you are aware of that, but claimining that there is a moral equivalence between the Holocaust and what is going on in Iraq is disgusting, and shows a complete lack of respect for what happened to the jews and others under Hitler’s reign.

Grow up.

fucking blind republicans. no wonder this crap is going down without the people doing anything to stop it. the media is controlled alot more than it was in Vietnam, so you morons can pretend we are still "liberating people". Liberating, yea if thats what you call disconnecting a soul from a body, then yes we are liberating thousands. And tax payers are footing the bill, billions more at a time.

 wake up you clueless idiots, quit sucking Bill O reily’s cock and get your own fucking opinions.

If anything, Bob’s links prove the exact opposite of his point.  Military members who murder and abuse are an abberation of an otherwise highly trained, highly diciplined force.  The fact that they are not getting away with it, are being subjected to military dicipline, shows the military is not running amuck a la Ghengis Kahn as many desperately want to believe.

JA, you need to get your news from the Mid-east, not western media. They are unwilling to send journalists who can operate in Islamic countries, choosing instead to send reporters who get their stories by standing on the roof of secured hotels or traveling in military convoys. Try khaleejtimes.com, dailystar.com, arabtimesonline.com, or indiatimes.com. Also try watchingamerica.com. From any of these you can link to other independent news services. As the man said before going overtop in 1915,"Free your mind, your ass will surely follow."

from your Arab Times link

 

 

BAGHDAD (AFP) - Three years after a US invasion meant to oust Saddam Hussein and launch democracy in the Middle East, Iraq hovers on the edge of all out civil war. The US military launched its biggest air assault Thursday since the 2003 invasion in another reminder of the failure of the US-led coalition and Iraqi government to pacify the country since Saddam Hussein’s fall.

 

 

…The bloodshed tore down the veneer from one of the myths of post Saddam Hussein Iraq that the country’s strife was a simple struggle pitting the US-backed government against insurgents, culled from Iraq’s onetime ruling Sunni minority. After the Samarra mosque bombing, US commanders and politicians offered a more sober appraisal of Iraq, acknowledging the very real threat of civil war, while at the same time cautioning such a conflagration was not inevitable. In fact, Iraq has risked descending into civil war long before the events in Samarra.

 

 

… By April 2005, while Washington was still euphoric about Iraq’s landmark first free election, the interior ministry’s intelligence chief General Hussein Kamel warned the country had fallen into a low level civil war.

HONG KONG (AFP): The main international treaty aimed at stopping the spread of atomic weapons will fall apart in the wake of the US civil nuclear deal with India, neighbour and rival Pakistan warned on Friday. In an interview with the Financial Times, Pakistani Foreign Minister Khurshid Kasuri also said his country wanted equal treatment and that it would pursue its own options for nuclear power. “The whole Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) will unravel,” Kasuri told the paper. “Nuclear weapons are the currency of power and many countries would like to use it. Once this goes through, the NPT will be finished,” he said.

Wow. "realitybased"bob and "Jaded American" can’t get their twisted views out with cussing and without distorting reality. They make our argument while falling right in line with the rantings of Air America host Mike Malloy.

Gee hotel, all I did was link to the great web sites you recommended for get in info from “journalists who can operate in Islamic countries” and this is the way I get treated…not really fair and balanced I’d say.

The anti American is you.
