They could have been all those things, yup. That's not how Bill decided to describe them though, he called them Muslims, which they were. I am NOT saying Bill was right to just leave it at "Muslims attacked us", but he was speaking the truth he just left out context. This should be obvious to anyone that he was trying to push buttons, but in a way he could easily defend himself. Which he did. IMO Bill doesn't look like anything but a troll here while Whoopi and the other chick look like straight fucking idiots.

Lol.

I agree he looks like a troll here, but I don't think they look bad for walking away from his trolling.

Babs goes on to say -
“I want to say something to all of you. You have just seen what should not happen,” she said. “We should be able to have discussions without washing our hands and screaming and walking off stage. I love my colleagues, but that should not have happened.”

and then -

"Let me just say to you in a calmer voice"

but you can't have a discussion in a calmer voice while Bill is talkign over you.

How many Christians have committed mass murder, in the name of Christianity, while shouting "GOD IS GREAT" in the last 500 years? I can't think of any off the top of my head, although I imagine there were a couple here and there.

How many Muslims have committed mass murder, in the name of Islam, while shouting "GOD IS GREAT" in the last year? Hundreds? Thousands?

There is a significant segment of Islam that believes violence and murder against infidels is good. You can't just write off every single terrorist attack as "a minority of extremists" or "they're not true Muslims".

i believe theres a couple hundred thousand "christians" doing that in iraq and afghanistan right now

Let's start with 2 million Vietnamese killed for an 'oops'. How many people have predominantly Christian nations killed, and how many have predominantly Muslim nations/groups killed?

Did you read what he said? Bill O'Reilly did NOT state that Islam attacked us, he did not say all Muslims are terrorists. He said we were attacked by Muslims. This is a fucking true fact that no one can fucking deny. Also, the subject had nothing to do with Christians. It was about the Mosque @ GZ and they asked him to explain why most Americans don't agree with it being built there. Your post is fucking fail.

Seriously, how come I have to come in here and defend Bill O'Reilly to a bunch of you idiots? Fucking learn to read and stop being such morons.

Joy and Whoopi walked off because he used just the term "Muslims" and nothing else. The point completely flew over you fcking head because you don't understand how simple words like Christian, or Muslim, or Hindu can cause incendiary reactions when generalizing like Moron-o-Reilly did before he clarified with an apology after pissing the 2 women off. Your comprehension is fail. The fact that I have to explain this to a mental midget is just fail.

I can't recall anyone ever yelling "GOD IS GREAT", except for the Islamic militants that were attacking us.

While it "is a fucking true fact" that he said we were attacked by Moslems, that doesn't mean we were attacked by Moslems. So, a lot of people deny we were attacked by Moslems, me being one of them. I think the WTC was attacked by Dick and Bush and/or the CFR.

After seeing the imposter of Bin Laden, I sure as hell can deny that we were attacked by Moslems.

Do you have a picture of yourself wearing a tin foil beanie?

Seriously no one fucking gets it. They were Muslims, fact. If I say that am I being a bigot? No I am not. If I say "Muslims attacked us on 9/11" am I being a bigot? No I am not because Muslims did attack us on 9/11. Islam did NOT attack 9/11. That's the context I'm leaving out. Bill clearly stated that he did not intend to mean that ALL of Islam attacked us. Look at what Whoopi said "They were extremists!" Extremists of what? They are considered MUSLIM EXTREMISTS. That's what they were. Bill was leaving out context to troll and they fell for it as are you idiots. He said nothing that wasn't a truth.

bfdd, yes, we all get that Muslim extremists are a sub-category of Muslims.

But Bill O'Reilly wasn't defending opposition to a Muslim extremist mosque. He was defending opposition to a Muslim mosque.

You can't say "All Muslim extremists are Muslims, but all Muslims are not extremists" and then with the same breath say "I oppose the building of a mosque by non-extremist Muslims close to ground zero". It's a non sequitur.

Let's dumb it down, why doesn't this headline read:
"Update: Christian charged with murder after mother found decapitated"

Technically he was a Christian because he went to church to ask for forgiveness.

Edit: Add the Columbine killings to the list. One of the kids went to Lutheran confirmation classes. Wonder if Moron-o-reilly reported that as a murder by a "Christian"?

Their first mistake was inviting O'Reilly. Why give that douche more time to speak?

Because it's easy to bait him into saying something controversial. Said controversy is then used to increase interest in, and ultimately increase the ratings of the show he's guesting on. Higher Ratings gets higher advertising charges/profits.


None of the people on these shows are so dumb as to not understand this.

Craig, were the people who flew the planes into our buildings Muslim? Yes they were. I'm not agreeing with what Bill said, nor do I believe Islam attacked us. But it is very clear that we were attacked by Muslims. That's all I'm saying. He was not lying, he just chose to be a douche bag and push buttons.

Cue batshit insane reasoning in five . . . four . . . three . . . two . . . one . . herrrre's Craig!

Behar actually accused Republicans of causing Senator Tim Johnson's stroke (which actually was a congenital condition of malformed brain blood vessels; no one poisoned him); she's ankle-biting, moon-howling batshit crazy 24/7. Whoopi is actually pretty sharp; she's only batshit crazy when elections loom and Democrats are behind.

Is that picture real?

Yes. But it is not of an actual stoning victim.

The caption:

An Iranian woman, symbolically dressed up as a victim of death by stoning, takes part in a protest of the National Council of Resistance of Iran outside a European Union Foreign Ministers meeting in Brussels on Monday. — Reuters

Why don't we agree to snip it from posts? Once is enough; we all know this is done in Sharia-controlled areas, but it's horrific enough that once is quite enough.

Agreed. That is why I did not post an image of an actual stoning, of which many exist, but an image from a protest against stoning and Islamism.
