"Dubai Holding entity becomes third largest shareholder in DaimlerChrysler Dubai Holding, through its entity Dubai International Capital, has acquired a stake in the world's second largest automaker - DaimlerChrysler - it was announced here today by Mohammed Al Gergawi, Chief Executive Officer of Dubai Holding." This was is Reuters newservice wire which by the way is controled by Kuwiat in terms of largest shareholders. The muslims are buying into everything and will have influence with everything. It is getting to a point where they do not have to own the media outlets outright to have control over what goes on the air or in print. Print a bad article or show a bad TV show about an arab nation, no car commercials for you and henceforth no advertising dollars to keep that media outlet afloat. Now you know why the trade towers pictures stopped playing only hours after it had happened. Why you never saw the burning people jumping out minutes after it was first shown. Why you never saw the bodies hitting the ground or lying about. Why you never saw the arabs dancing in the streets of brooklyn and handing out candy as they sung. etc....
Now let me get this straight you are saying that the Arabs/Muslims control U.S. media? I thought the conspiracy guys blamed that on the Jews.
American Jews created alot of the media as well as alot of everything if you really look into it but over time the arab oil money buys out/takes over by shares or direct ownership. That is why there is so much anti-american bias today in so much of everything.
You can see anything you want to see, if you take the effort to look. Media outlets don't control what you see, they only control what they show you. You can always go elsewhere for your information if you care to take the effort to do so. No one media outlet has a monopoly on information.
I really do not see a huge pro Arab movement in media. Where are the sitcoms with Arabic characters? This one is a real reach Andy.
Oh come on now. When was the last time you saw a movie that had muslims as terrorists. Come on now the majority of movies are made today where the CIA is bad and the terrorists are good. "Lost" has an Iraq who is the nobelist of all the surivors-Any of the Criminal Intent, Law and Order shows repeatly show an arab that was abused by "our system" and protrays practicing christians and jews as being bad, it just goes on and on. "UPI was a formidable competitor to the Associated Press until the 1980s, when it had 1,500 reporters and 200 bureaus around the globe. Since 1992, it has been owned by six Saudi Arabian families and now has 157 employees in Washington, London, Latin America and Asia--and few clients". The first thing that happen when UPI was taken over was that all pro-western editors or fair and balance people were fired in the "Transition phase". Since then UPI has been sold but the bottom line is the middle eastern arabs are controlling what and how the news is being presented to the American Public not only by being majority share holders in media outlets but as I pointed out with the first post buying out automobile companies, etc and then dictating what should be presented or their advertising dollars would be pulled. It is easy, have the majority of shares,( and it could be more then one holding that adds up), and you pick who is on the board or who is the chairman and they hire who you want them to, to do your bidding.
Just give up Andy...I did. The only rational that makes any sense is that his posts are so whacked with the intention of just rattling our cages. His thinking is, "Let me put this out and see what kind of reaction I get." God help us and the future of this country if he really believes in any of the nonsense he has posted. As I stated, "natural selection" will deal with him if he does.
I can't figure out if he married into the islamic world and is buying into it or if he things he makes arabs look good it makes bush look bad?
I just hate to see the equivalent of the yellow stars come out. This "they control the media" thing was used on the Jews also.
Cloudsweeper, a vast amount of Israel nationals died at the world trade towers and that Van story came out of Arab media. Look up the World Trade Tower memorial web pages for the lists of names and nationality. Danr, it is a fact that the arabs are spending billions of dollars by the quarter buying up various media outlets, banks, automobile companys,etc around the world. One Bank example with two source of information: From Forbes Magazine, Prince Alwaleed-"His fortune, anchored by a $10 billion stake in Citigroup", From CNN Business_Alwaleed owns $9.9 billion, or 4.3 percent, of the New York-based bank, making him the biggest shareholder. and speaking of Prince Alwaleed, who runs suicide bomber telethons in Saudi Arabia, he also is heavy invested in Time Warner, Newscorp, Amazon.com, AOL as well as owning Nigerian TV etc.... We could do a whole thread on what he owns never mind the other mideast oil men. By the way Forbes has him only in the top 5 money men but they have admitted that he has far more money at his disposal that he admits.
Andy, the van story originally came from the Jersey City police department, who picked them up, and was reported in the Star Ledger and a few local New Jersey papers. It was subsequently re-reported by several national and internet sources. The nationalities of the people who lost their lives is tragic but irrelevant to this point of discussion.
My mistake, the above should read FBI not Jersey City police. Anyway, people's memory about the incident is fading and opinion has replaced reality.
Cloudsweeper it as arabs in downtown Brooklyn that were dancing in the street and giving out candy. Now the van story is a complete lie that was produced after the brief coverage of just about all of the hijackers were from Saudi Arabia. The lie of a story was placed in the media right away and in some created internet sights by the Saudi's. Then in turn jew-hating and leftwing,(usually the same anyway), groups picked it up on the internet and started a reproduction of the lie. CNN's Connie Chung Presented a story aired on October 2, 2002 which pretty much stated, “These rumors were circulated over the Internet and cited by papers around the world. In some places, especially in the Middle East, the story was presented as fact”. Now think. What would be the purpose of five mossad agents filming the Trade Towers being hit? Two do you actually think that Israel and Saudi Arabia intellignece forces work hand in hand? Why would Israel not stop the destruction of the Trade Towers when Silverstein, a big supporter of Israel, just signed two months before a 3.2 billion dollar deal for the World Trade Towers from the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey. A deal that took years to make. Israel lost alot with the Trade Towers going down. After all, all we heard since then is how Islam is a religion of love.
The van story is a documented fact. Can't make it go away by just claiming otherwise. Silverstein is irrelevant in the big picture. People can't grasp the enormous scope of what occurred. That's why attention is continuously drawn back to trivia surrounding the event. Now think. Who benefited from 911? There is a whole list of possible beneficiaries. Someone obviously made millions [billions?] in the options market. Al Qaeda got in a body blow against the US. Israel put the US in position to destroy their number one enemy for them [Iraq]. Iran achieved political control over Iraq. The opium trade was restored in Afghanistan. The USA got a couple of dozen additional military bases in the oil-rich sections of the Middle East. Pakistan received additional military aid to strenghten them in their long term struggle against India. China obtained long term oil rights in Iran. Silverstein received the insurance proceeds. Who knows who else benefitted?!? But I don't expect to change any minds here. I have a theory that nobody who ever read anything on the internet has ever changed his/her mind about anything. So this is the end of this thread for me. I would just encourage anyone interested to go back and look at some of the news stories from 911 through the end of that terrible year. It will make your head spin once you realize there was no followup to most of what happened during that time period.
Cloudsweeper, Iraq was never Israels number 1 problem. Saudi Arabia, Syria, Iran, Kuwait, these are the nations that are funding the hundreds of various terrorist jihad groups as well as arming and training them. Saudi Arabia and Kuwait are even attacking jewish owned business by telling others that if you do business with them, then they will not do business with you..by closing in on loans, by buying stock in banks and denying loans, by buying political influence and undermining projects. Just look at the London Warf project and how jews built it and arabs stoled it. I could do a whole thread on that one on how Prince Alwaleed had London not build the subway station stops that were planned there so that no one could get there. The Canadian jews that built it went bankrupt and then he moved in and took over and had the subway train stops build and buses routed there, "underground" I believe they call the subway system over there. Now it is clear that you do not understand how the AP works. The AP is not one enitity. It is made up of roughly 150 newspapers. Any one of those newspapers could put a story out on the AP line for the other newspapers to pick up. If one newspaper puts out one untrue story or picks up an untrue story off the internet and puts it out on the AP line, then you have other news outlets picking it up and putting it out as fact. Now arab oil backed groups and individuals like Prince Alwaleed own major shares in AOL, Time Warner, as well as individual newpapers in this nation. They also produced disinformation all over the internet. It is a tactical warfare measure. They feel they do not have to blow us up to win. Just brainwash us over time to accept Islam, undermine our beliefs in Christianity and turn on the jews. That is why terrorists are called insurgents or freedom fighters, that is why any anti-muslim story is killed after a day or days that it comes out. That is why Islam is a religion of Peace is being spread and that is why CNN was teaching everyone during their "newscasts" about the five pillars of Islam and the importance of traveling to Mecca. Notice how with Christian Christmas stories it is always stated, "This is what Christians believe" then within the same hour there will be a story that goes against traditional Christian teachings like, was Jesus married. etc...but with Islam it is presented as fact. Now you could get all caught up with your anti-jewish stuff but just remember that is what the muslims want and when the jews are all gone they feel that the christians will lose their foundation and henceforth be gone soon as well over time. Remember Jesus was the son of God but he was also jewish. If you hate jews, then you hate Jesus.
Canary Wharf in London, England was first developed by Paul Reichman, a Canadian Jew. he developed 70 arces in the late 1980's and built five million square feet of office space in seven buildings. Paul Reichman was the real estate holder of Olympia and York. He also was managed the World Trade Towers and owned a number of buildings surrounding the Towers. The station I speak of was not opened until 1999. The project was given a verbal approval by Thacher in the 1980's but whose construction was delayed by Prince Alwaleed's influence. The station is Canary Wharf on the Jubliee Line between Canada Water and North Greenwich. Canary Wharf station should not be confused with the more distant Herons Quay or West India Quay stops. The last time I heard Prince Alwaleed was still the controlling interest in Canary Wharf after bankrupting Paul Reichman . Who has made a small comeback since then.
Andy, A couple of final thoughts in response to your personal attacks... None of the sources I referred to were AP related, so your insinuation that I "don't understand" is incorrect. You imply that I am somehow anti-jewish, which is a complete lie. You are pretty full of yourself and have a lot of growing up to do. Get your facts straight, stop lying and putting words in the mouths of others, and keep your bigoted theories about those who practice Islam or any other religion to yourself.
