CNN Linking Tsunami Aid to Osama Bin Laden |
|
Wolf Blitzer was just discussing the tsunami aid effort with William Cohen. His first question was "Why should we give money to the tsunami victims if they support Osama Bin Laden?". He then puts a picture up of some poor wretched soul in Indonesia wearing an Osama Bin Laden t-shirt as he begs for water. Cohen seemed to stunned by the question and he said that we shouldn't let anything stop us from contributing to ease the suffering of so many fellow human beings. Wolf, ever the media whore, wouldn't let up and then he let's all his viewers know that there sure are alot of Muslims over there in them islands and shouldn't the rich Muslim countries be paying for their rescue. Tens of millions of people were affected by the tsunami and CNN & Wolf Blitzer find a picture of one guy wearing an Osama T-shirt and they start to question the US role in the relief effort. What a stinking pile of crap our modern American media profession has become. Simply amazing!
