David WHOREwitz and his Campus Brainwashing Tour
The AIPAC inspired, Horowitz led Islamo-Fascism Awareness Week, now invading US campuses, is nothing more than an exercise in agitprop to further inflame hatred of all things Muslim/Arab.
Horowitz and his fellow travelers will be doing their best to ramp up the American appetite to invade another ME country, this time Iran.
They portray the IFAW as some sort of neoChristian revival to bring back that old time religion.
A religion that so far has managed to ensnare the US in the Iraqi war, with no end in sight.
Horowitz's campus crusade, that it's for the women and how we need to protect them in the ME world, is BUNK.
Excuse me David, but we've already managed to liberate enough Muslim women in the ME.
So far, we've managed to "liberate" over ONE MILLION Iraqi's from the burden of living.
We've managed to "liberate" another 5 MILLION or so from the burden of calling Iraq a home. And millions more were "liberated" from even owning a home, unless one counts a pile of bombed out rubble a home.
We've managed to "liberate" millions more of Iraqi's from the burden of living in peace and making a living.
So, Davy boy, just how many more ME women do you propose to "liberate" and will it take another GW Bush "Shock and Awe" campaign to deliver this liberation.
A "liberation" that is delivered with B-2's bombers and cruise missiles might not appeal to those ME women granted the favors of our liberation.

O Horowitz O Horowitz
It seems his brain is is on the fritz
O Horowitz O Horowitz

Distorts and lies 'bout Muslim rules
Thinks that his audience are fools

The inquisition was no joke
And that was done by Christian folk
The inquisition was not joke
And that was done by Christian folk
They tortured and burned at the stake
Abu Ghraib's their modern take
The inquisition was no joke
And that was done by Christian folk
The worst regimes get US dough
Democracies we overthrow
The worst regimes get US dough
Democracies we overthrow
If they cooperate with us,
We turn a blind eye, we don't fuss
The worst regimes get US dough
Democracies we overthrow
Extremists come in many forms
You can't judge all by twisted norms
Extremists come in many forms
You can't judge all by twisted norms
In every faith things do go wrong
But hear the message in our song
Extremists come in many forms
You can't judge all by twisted norms
nice work, Greg.
these posts - so many that are up today - need to grow some legs, i.e., get linked all over the internet.
How about some marketing efforts from my fellow bloggers?

"Money" has no value - people do.
Mr. Bacon, why do you deal more in sensationalism and name-calling than actual debate and objective reporting?
The stated intent of IFAW is:
...to confront the two Big Lies of the political left: that George Bush created the war on terror and that Global Warming is a greater danger to Americans than the terrorist threat.
There is nothing in that statement about bringing back any 'old time religion.'
Also, a search for 'Iran' in the IFAW guide comes up with nothing.
On what do you base your theory that IFAW has ANYTHING to do with specifically Iran?
I would think that Americans in general don't have the appetite to invade any middle east countries, given that the Iraq war is so unpopular among American citizens as seen here, here, and here.
What do all of your unsubstantiated facts regarding casualties have to do with IFAW? What exactly is your main argument here anyway?
Its ironic, Mr. Bacon, that the very freedom you take for granted, by calling David Horowitz a whore, is the very freedom the U.S. is giving to the Iraqi people and ultimately trying to give everyone living under tyranny and oppression. Was Sadam not a tyrant? Did he not commit crimes of atrocity against civilians in Halabja? Did he not create poverty in Iraq where there was once prosperity? Would you rather he was still in power in Iraq?
What would happen in Iran to someone who calls Khamenei or Ahmadinejad a whore? What happens to gay people in Iran? Oh wait, Iran has no gay people.
I expect you'll respond with another childish, nonsensical response that contributes absolutely nothing towards advancing your core argument...but none the less, I've given you the opportunity to do so.
"Saddam was evil . . ."
"We brought freedom to Iraq . . ."
"What would Iraq be like if Saddam were still in power . . . "
bla, bla, bla . . .
Same old tired rhetoric.
Your calm demeanor and polished sophistry have no effect on those who see right through your zionist lies.
Horowitz and his band of zio-freaks are shooting themselves in the foot with their traveling circus of hate.
This will all come back to bite them in their zio-asses.
I suggest you bail out of the zio-bandwagon, before the shit hits the fan.

You hit the nail on the head and probably didn't even realize it. You are aggravated that I'm not aggravated, that I'm able to level an informed argument against you without having to kick and scream like a scolded child. That seems to be the sole intent of this forum; to entice senseless, baseless anger and rage and point it at the wrong target.
Why don't you both engage in a meaningful, informed debate backed by evidence and precedence? Many of your attempted arguments have validity but you debase them with the garbage that spouts so easily from your mouths.
What a waste of time and energy.
It used to be mcwresearch, or something like that. Now, it's concerned-citizen.
are you hiding something?
or just trying to confuse people?
Your demeanor may be calm, but your assertions are baseless and your rhetorical questions meaningless.

You are right.. You are wasting your time here. Bye bye:)
I changed my handle because this one better reflects who I am and why I joined this forum.
My questions and assertions are firmly based and clearly backed-up. Hence all the hyper links in my comments. What could be more meaningful than exploring the true intent of the IFAW? Wasn't that the intent of this article in the first place?
I had hoped that I could engage with intelligent albeit controversial individuals here at WUFYS but I am quickly losing hope.
So far all I've experienced are racist, anti-semitic dullards who label anyone with an opinion contrary to their own a 'Zionist.' I couldn't be further from a Zionist and from the looks of it, this forum couldn't be further the truth that is supposed to set us free.
"Mr. Bacon, why do you deal more in sensationalism and name-calling than actual debate and objective reporting?"
Your right. I should have listed the amount of Iraqi dead at close to 1.5 million, if one included the years of sanctions leveled against that nation by the people who hate all things Muslim, i.e., people like you, concerned citizen.
People like you, concerned citizen, who are laboring mightily to get the US to fight another war for Israel, this time against Iran.
People like you, concerned citizen, who use war, death and destruction like some use Viagra; it gives them a surge between their legs.
People like you, concerned citizen, who are somewhat afraid that the wheels are coming off their wagon labeled "Israel First."
i, for one, am not going to fall for the well oiled Zionist trap of "wanting to discuss and debate..blah, blah, blah.
That discussion has been ongoing for 60 years now and all that it has gotten the Palestinians is a face full of lead.
And the Iraqi's and soon, the Iranians.
If you're looking to find those who love to lick Zionist butt and look the other way at the numerous DOCUMENTED Israeli WAR CRIMES, like the current blockade of medicines, food and fuel to Gaza, then i suggest you go to the halls of Congress.
You'll find more than a few of your number there, lurking about the halls of our government, ready, willing and able to keep supporting the illegal and immoral Zionist regime in Israel.
If that doesn't strike your fancy, why not stick to doing what you do best:
Collecting boy band memorabilia and old Britney Spears posters.
I've seen the light. Everyone I've come into contact with so far on this forum either 1. label you a 'Zionist' if they disagree with you or 2. personally attack you and do their best to distract from the fact that their rantings have no intellectual basis.
How have *I* labored mightily to wage another war?
How have *I* used war death and destruction like Viagra (whatever that implies)?
When have *I* even remotely mentioned Israel? Even once?
If you don't want to discuss and debate, then what, pray tell, is the point of your ramblings, beyond impressing yourself with a dim-witted reference to the surge?
You can't mount a successful counter to logic, therefore you revert to personal attacks, slander, racism and sensationalism.
If anyone is looking debunked right about now, its you Mr. Bacon.
I'm compelled to add that this thread of comments mirror the current problem with even discussing the problems of the middle east. So much is involved that people lose track of what it was they originally disagreed about.
There is no refuting that Israel's occupation of any land beyond their borders after 1967 is illegal. There is no refuting that their treatment of Palestinians is at many times illegal and highly immoral. There is no refuting that America's seemingly unbridled support of Israel is damaging its image world-wide.
But for you to argue that the IFAW is intended to 'ramp up the American appetite to invade another ME country, this time Iran' is simply irresponsible and unfounded.
But you keep wallowing in your own mud because you obviously haven't the intellectual or moral aptitude to consider another's opinion nor to engage in intelligent discussion.
It's interesting how people who vehemently dislike this site stick around and entertain us... I wonder how much the lobby pays now..
needs to quit funding this welfare bum David Horowitz
