You know what I find funny... I never watch Fox nor do I know of anyone that watches Fox. I'm referring to those that share similar or more conservative views than myself. Not one of them.

All i'm saying is that the idea of Fox proliferating terrorism to the point we’ve dedicated a thread to the matter is ridiculous. Hasn’t anyone realized that everything we do proliferates terrorism in their eyes? They are the bad guys that are responsible, not Fox. The sooner you stop pointing the finger the sooner we can condemn those that are truly responsible. Allah forbid we do anything about that sore subject.

 

Thank you, they'd be just as happy to kill a liberal as a conservative.

 

Could Dre's response have been anymore textbook? Let's find the reasons that these poor and unfairly treated people are pissed at us and see if we can't somehow make that suffering any less. Would you like one lump or two in your coffee, Osama? Coffee's too cold? Let put pick that in the microwave for you lickidy split. Anything for you! Fox news is the problem, you say? Well that explains it...

Who knew the answer was right there on the surface? Everyone can go home now! Move along people! It was Fox news this entire time! Thank god for Dre and dub2w's psychoanalysis of the terrorist mind. I can finally put the idea to rest that the answer lied in the sick, twisted minds of these Qutbee/Salafi/Wahhabi (pick one!) Islamic Psychopaths. Thanks fellas!

a lot of you are piled on the bottom of a very slippery slope. first, look up the word "proliferate." Fox News is not the reason that we have terrorists. Salty, once again your beligerence takes away from any potentially worthwhile conversation about this issue.

I truly believe that Fox News has helped erode U.S. credibility. As Dre pointed out, there really isnt that much of a difference between Fox and Al-Jazeera IMO. And I would think that there are a lot of normal (read: non-radical, non-extremist) Arabs who wish Al-Jazeera would stop tainting the image of their people, just as I wish Fox would STFU and stop tainting the image of the United States

 

I know what proliferate (ing) means and my point still stands. Fox news hasn't been around as long as terrorism but Fox certainly was the last straw for terrorist attacks against our country? Again, not remotely worthy enough for its own thread when there's a million other factors. It's the ideals of those committing the terrorism that proliferates terrorism. Why is it easier for you to accept some half-*** scapegoat instead of bestowing responsibility for the terrorists' mindset?

If it wasn't because of their wacked religious reasonings then we'd have our own people attacking us because of Fox. So where are they? Where are these vast attacks from our allies and own people because of Fox news coverage? Maybe you should present another theory that Arabs/Iranians/Chechans process information differently than other humans accross the globe?

When someone commits murder it’s their idiotic reasoning that "forced them" to chamber the round and pull the trigger. It’s that simple. If that murderer’s surroundings and influential factors were to blame then they’d be on trail instead of the murderer (terrorist in this case).

If I can't win your heart on my point then at least admit it's vast combination of factors that proliferate terrorism in your eyes. McDonalds, CNN, MSNBC, MTV, Spike TV, USA, TBS, TNT, TNN, AOL Time Warner, etc. Not just Fox news because you don't agree with how they conduct themselves. Because that’s what this thread is truly about, isn’t it?

...sorry, it's been a while

 

I may be wrong, but I think what the original point was is that FOX proliferates the pig-headed bush-esque attitude toward everything and anything that doesn't support thier obviously slanted view of the world. The same way that al-jazeera proliferates our steadfastness against terror, FOX proliferates terror itself. Defiance is part of human nature.

How exactly could CNN's view proliferate terror overseas?

 

Because it's American. Simple answer, eh?

You guys give terrorist logic far too much overanalysis and credit when it isn't even due.

 

i should have been more specific. Rather than specifically mentioning terrorism, I should have focused on the proliferation of anti-American sentiment.

and addressing the point that anything "American" proliferates anti-American sentiment. I think that there is some truth to that, but it is on the fringe parties (i.e. extremists) that this is more applicable. in the creation of this thread i was talking more about regular people in other countries who subject themselve to Fox News

 

touche

 

I'd agree with you then. Anti-American sentimism is one thing while terrorism comes from these extremists.

 

Wow, that was certainly out of context.

 

Really ? As much as MTV and VH1? I'd think the islamo facists would be more fundamentally alligned with the concervatives than they would be with the egos of american celebrities.

 

In this case anti-American setiment = jealousy and hatred of those who are better than themselves.

 

That is part of it.
