No one will run this story or care because he is Muslim and has a Muslim name. The funny thing is, if there was a Christian fundamentalist in this country and we executed him people would be talking about it. And if we killed his son just because of that relationship between the two there would be outrage.

You know how the Soviet Union always said they fought the Western fascism and everyone laughed because they were a dictatorship?

Turns out they were right.

@jstsurreal so true.

@blechtic Truth is treason in an empire of lies.

The Young Turks. A show owned by a hypocrite who also owns oil companies on in an area that is supposed to be precious to mother nature and the planet. Al Gore then turns around preaches to save to planet of global warming. Enough with the hypocritical two faced lies. Global Warming is not the problem, it is only used to create a money laundering scheme via cap and trade. Al Gore works with the Banking Elite and to them "Truth is Treason in and Empire of lies". That is what their globalism is.

@tegidin A majority of politicians in Washington are bought and paid for by the banking elite to achieve their agenda. Ron Paul part of the few that is not and his voice does not matter because of that.

fuck and i thought bush was bad obama is just a better liar

[disamjisa]

Anyone who votes for Obama in 2012 will have their hands dripping in blood. Write in Ron Paul or the Greens party, or even the Socialists (this is coming from a radical free-market mutualist)!

Anything is better than the nightmarish Orwellian Democratic Party or Republican (other than RP) candidates

[disamjisa]

The award of the Nobel Peace Prize to Obama is the most disgusting, stomach churning irony I've ever seen.

The president is signing death warrants for American citizens, prepared by secret panels based on classified evidence? What the fuck is wrong with you people?

[jstsurreal]

Lol... Anyone else want to dispute that Americans sanction the killing of children? Do you know that Khalid Sheikh Mohammad's 10 YEAR OLD son was also taken captive by Americans?

No one knows what happened to him. But hey, why complain? As long as America does it, it's legal!

But if an Iraqi, or Afghan kills a Nato Soldier, they are terrorists! Makes perfect sense to me.

Perfect sense. Yes.... By the way, i don't have a brain.

"What have we become?" Answer: WW2 Euro styled fascist crony capitalist war machine that is spreading misery around the world and at home.

You're sounding like Ron Paul, Cenk. Good questions worth asking.
