Al Jazeera is coming to America — courtesy of former Vice President Al Gore and entrepreneur Joel Hyatt. The Arab network, funded by Qatar, has just bought Current TV — the low rated liberal cable station Gore and Hyatt founded — for a reported $500 million. The deal gives the anti-Israeli Arab network access to 40 million homes in the United States.
Beyond bringing anti-Israeli propaganda into these new American outlets, Al Jazeera has a long record as the chosen news outlet for Al Qaeda and other terrorist cells. It was through them that Osama bin Laden would regularly post videos attacking the west and calling for renewed acts of terror. Having this network available in the U.S. might also afford terrorist groups a new method of communicating with one another. At the very least, it will help whip up enthusiasm among Islamic viewers in America for jihadist terrorism. Some fear that its message will actually cause an uptick in domestic terrorism.
To its credit, Time Warner Cable announced that it will cancel its contract with Current. Some speculate that this is so it will not have to show Al Jazeera’s propaganda on its system. Their action keeps the station off 12.5 million homes. Thank you, Time Warner.
Gore, who consistently postured himself as a friend of Israel, shows now how unreliable the “friends” of the Jewish state are when the chips — or the money — is down. It is estimated that Gore, who owns 20 percent of Current TV, will get $100 million for his share from the deal. Media reports indicate that the former VP was eager to close the deal before the higher income tax rates he supported kick in on Jan. 1, 2013.

ReplyDeleteAl Gore is a money Whore. Always was, always will be.
ReplyDeleteA champion of the left for pushing the global warming scare (which he has profited greatly from brokering energy credits) and one of the biggest polluters in the nation(he has owned the largest zinc mine in the country).
Implored us to be stewards of the oceans by not building on our shorelines, then after divorcing Tipper, he builds a mansion on the ocean.
Tells us to reduce our "carbon footprint" yet lived in a mega mansion in Tennessee with multiple chimneys and furnace exausts and owned the largest yacht on the lake. All spewing incredible amounts of carbon into the atmosphere.
His concern has always been about the money, nothing else. And the left still adore him.
This is how minds are changed to believe in what the world dictators want. Just look at the results of the last election and how the minds of many of our young people and minorities have fallen for the lies of politicians and now want to be handed free stuff at the expense of working taxpayers. Hopefully enough will wake up in time to change the next election's results. Hillary would be as bad as what we have now.
