I would point you to this article by Brian Whitaker

Again well done to them, it was founded by a former Israeli Military Intelligence Officer so I would expect nothing less than a sophisticated propaganda machine that misrepresents and distorts information for its own ends. Hell, if the Saudis were smart enough they would be doing the same hatchet job on Israel's news media.

They can't get there. Each time they set off, the planet rotates and they never make it.

1. "if the Saudis were smart enough they would be doing the same" - Saudis,being non-smart, need your advice on how to manage their affairs. silly Saudis,not listening to your wisdom.

2. Mr. Whitaker has a site about the arab world, Al Bab, which interstingly enough can't find any misreperensations or disinformation in Memri.

There is no need to distort information, lies are easier and get enough traction in the Arab/Muslim world (Mossad trained sharks to attack tourists in Sinai, Israel will demolish the mosques in Temple mount, Mossad is behind 9/11, Zionists stole my shoes...)

When I read this; the Earth moved for me too

Seems there are other religions with extremist nutters, no surprise!

Three people have been killed after a gunman armed with a rifle stormed an abortion clinic in Colorado Springs and opened fire before an hours-long standoff with police ended when he surrendered.

No official statement yet about why he did this so it is my supposition!

I hope all the Christians here will issue formal apologies like they have requested Muslims do?

Would it really kill you to provide a source for a news story? http://www.foxnews.com/us/2015/11/28...ed-parenthood/

And...

"We don't have any information on this individual's mentality, or his ideas or ideology," Buckley said."

That dickhead in the cafe in Australia turned out to be more nutter than mujahid. That didn't stop everyone leaping to conclusions before all the facts were known, though, did it?

No panic....

About "Would it really kill you to provide a source for a news story? " Well it was in every newspaper I looked at this morning so it seemed pointless!

About "We don't have any information on this individual's mentality, or his ideas or ideology," Buckley said" I did write "No official statement yet about why he did this so it is my supposition!" So was my post not clear?

There were times when moderate Muslims were very cool.

In 1958, the president of Egypt, the great Nasser is speaking in front of an audience regarding his latest meeting with the Muslim Brotherhood (the mother of all terrorist organizations)

The head of Muslim Brotherhood demanded from Nasser to make a law that every woman in Egypt is forced to wear a hijab.

-"Make him wear one!" - somebody yells from the audience. Than everybody laughs like crazy.

Yes, moderate Muslims were cool back in the date. It's a pity that they have a different view over the Muslim Brotherhood now.

Ahem. I know they don't have modern ideas but they know how the internet works, right?

Nasser a moderate ?
Nasser was a charismatic dictator who knew (like Mubarak, btw) that the MB were a very big threat to his rule. When people were ecstatic about the "Arab spring" in 2011 it was worse than stupid, it was naive.

Is there a difference? A nutter tells a story about why he does things and suddenly he has an ideology?

Damned by faint praise. Not many Arab leaders today would have resigned after a military defeat, as he did in 1967.

As it seems not many Arab leaders would stand against radical jihadist today, some even buy their oil and shoot the planes that bomb them!

I'm pretty sure that Mr Erdogan isn't an Arab.

And he doesn't seem European neither, not by a long shot judging his actions

Well, of course not. His family come from Asia Minor.

I've heard he's Turkish. And what do actions have to do with provenance? Have you seen how some of these Eastern Europeans act? Animals, some of them.

Jihadists, all of them
