Thought there was something screwy with this article in the Free-Lance Star: Samir Kuntar in photo at left.
"Lebanon happy prisoners returning from Israel." Written by AP Reporter Bassem Mroue.
Mroue most certainly does not speak for "all" the Lebanese.
The article reads almost like a tribute to bloodthirsty Hizbollah terrorist murderer Samir Kuntar.
Mroue almost sounds "sympathetic" to this cold blooded terrorist:
She describes Kuntar as the "perpetrator of an attack" against an Israeli family.
Not the perpetrator of a cold blooded premeditated murder.
She does not call him a terrorist. She does not refer to the attack as an act of senseless violent terrorism.
She never once refers to Hizbullah as a recognized terrorist organization, but merely as a "guerrilla group".
She also describes the ceromonies and celebrations that will welcome the return of freed terrorists.
A post at the media blog of National Review by Nathan Goulding shed more light:
"Bassem Mroue: Anti-Israel AP Reporter"- Goulding writes:
"Following up on a reader tip, I looked into one of the AP's reporters, Bassem Mroue. Mroue has a personal blog full of anti-Israel sentiments ..."
Go to the link provided just above to read the rest of what Goulding reveals.
Whoever the folks are at the Free-Lance Star responsible for which articles on a topic to run with, they would have done far better to run with an article like this one from JPost:
Peres Signs Pardon For Lebanese Murderer Samir Kuntar. As well as the related article below:
A Celebration of Evil-an article about the "celebrations" planned to welcome back the Islamofascist terrorists.
This man is evil, but of course the Liberal MSM sugar coats the story, the terrorist organization. Makes me so mad, but all we can do is reveal them for what they are -- liars.
