Tom,

I took a look at the MSNBC piece the Raimondo article was based on. It's actually not surprising most Americans have been hoodwinked by the kind of propaganda that's been shoved down their throats by the "liberal" media.

msnbc.msn.com

<<<Their attire and weapons LOOK LIKE a professional assault team and they APPEAR to be practicing an entry drill consistent with tactics used in bombings this year in Riyadh..... It's APPARENTLY the latest propaganda piece from al-Qaida, with dire warnings for the West and the Saudi royal family..... The tape APPEARS to be real, because it was posted late Wednesday night on a KNOWN al-Qaida Web site produced by a company that has made other bin Laden tapes.>>>

"Looks like"? "Appears"? "Apparently"? "Known al Quaida web site"? That isn't journalism, it's hogwash. Just tell the folks what you want them to believe they're seeing, and that's all she wrote.

Who hosts terrorist websites? Who pays for the bandwidth? What ISP do they use to log on to their account? Do they use their al Quaida Visa Cards to pay the bill, in order to identify them to authorities and get a 10% discount?

Then after the al Quaida website is up and running, a government guy "finds" the video, provided to the FBI by a "friendly bystander", and then passes it along to the FBI and MSNBC?

Sheesh!!! Give me a break! Is it the people who are stupid, or is it the media that is so brain dead they don't realize how foolish this sort of trash looks in print?
