The Hypocrisy Of The Media On Libya Is Astounding

Yesterday I heard the dreaded term "Freedom Fighter" used to describe the opponents of the govt. in Libya

Today, on CNN...they are calling a guy a "Hero" and interviewing his friends and family and talking about how he "sacrificed his life" for the greater good. What did this guy do? Well, he packed a car up with explosive materials and drove it into a pack of Libyan soldiers and blew himself up to kill as many of them as he could.

Sound familiar? Yeah...suicide bomber.
When it's a muslim doing it AGAINST us...we call them "Cowards" and nobody interviews their friends and families and glorifies them. And commentators on the news wonder how anybody could do anything so despicable.

But now...this guy is a "Hero" who "sacrificed his life"

This shit is getting ridiculous. We have no business in the middle of a civil war. And the media just might as well drop all pretense that they are anything but an arm of our govt.
