Dirty Liberal Jew

A traitor is a traitor, he should be executed.


Al-Jazeera's Newest (Jewish) Star


Nothing demonstrates the dangerously misplaced sympathies of Canada's intellectual elite so much as the case of Avi Lewis. A former host with the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, the Jewish Lewis is Canada's answer to Keith Olbermann. But what has everyone in Canada talking is not his past career but his new job: Lewis has joined Al-Jazeera, the Middle East broadcaster that serves as a leading purveyor of anti-Americanism and anti-Semitism.

That the ambitious 40-year-old presenter has departed the state-funded CBC for an international network with exponentially bigger budgets and audiences isn't a huge surprise. But Lewis's career move underscores that the Canadian Left is all too willing to forge an unholy alliance with the official tribune of radical Islam.

In many ways, Lewis is a perfect archetype for Canada's intellectual elite. And while the idea of a Jewish broadcaster joining the world's biggest Muslim and hate-America/Israel media outlet may seem shocking, it is in fact natural for a post-modern, "progressive" leftist like Lewis.

Lewis had cultivated a brass persona at the CBC. Armed with a smug, self-satisfied smirk that undermined his attempts to discuss serious issues, Lewis once criticized Venezuelan dictator Hugo Chavez. The reason? Chavez was not socialist enough for his tastes.

"For what it's worth," commented Jonathan Kay at the National Post, "I think the jump to Al-Jazeera is a great career move for Lewis. Once he escapes the CBC, he will be able to bash the Americans without even the minimal ideological safeguards the Ceeb imposes. If he becomes a star at Al-Jazeera, he will be preaching to an audience that's potentially many times the size of the CBC's — and he'll get some revenge against [his former bosses.]"

Lewis' main claim to fame (or, rather, infamy) was an interview he conducted with former Dutch parliamentarian and author Ayaan Hirsi Ali in June 2007. The segment quickly made Lewis, and by extension the CBC, a worldwide laughingstock. But instead of ending his broadcasting career, that interview may have served as Avi Lewis's inadvertent "audition" for Al-Jazeera.

At the start of the broadcast Lewis introduces guest Ayaan Hirsi Ali as a Somali-born Muslim "subjected to genital mutilation, and promised in an arranged marriage to a Canadian…" who "departed from the script and made a new life in the Netherlands," as a member of the Dutch Liberal Party. "She wrote the film Submission with Theo Van Gogh," Lewis continued, "which featured sexualized images of a Muslim woman with verses of the Koran written on her body, telling a tale of abuse. When the filmmaker was murdered in 2004" – Lewis doesn't tell us the culprit was a fanatical Muslim – "the note pinned to his body was addressed to Hirsi Ali."

Then Lewis asked Hirsi Ali for her "critique against Islam." Ali, the epitome of poised, calmly responded that "Islam means submission to the will of Allah. A doctrine that requires the individual to become a slave is, in my view, is bad."

But aren't there different kinds of Islam, just as there are different interpretations of Christianity and Judaism?" Lewis asked.

"No," his guest replied.

Here Lewis began to unravel. Hirsi Ali's calm, cool demeanor actually seemed to agitate him as much as her answers. Grinning for some unknown reason, Lewis insisted that "Evangelical Christianity has risen to the highest ranks of power" in the United States. Homophobia is rampant! "Islamophobia is "rampant", too, in Lewis's view. But not in Hirsi Ali's.

Hirsi Ali: "There is no Islamophobia. It's a myth." It's not 'Islamophobic' to say that Islam is incompatible with liberal democracy. It's not 'Islamophobic' to point to those people who use the Koran and the Hadith to conduct war and to say this is being done in the name of your religion. To do something about it, that's not 'Islamophobic.' That's fair."

Hirsi Ali: "I think it's highly exaggerated that Muslims in the US are under siege. If that were the case -- we know groups in history who were under siege, and what they usually do is, they would leave. I don't see any American Muslim leaving and going back to any Muslim country."

Lewis: "Well, your faith in American democracy is, uh -- delightful!"

Hirsi Ali: "It's the best democracy. It's the best place to be! (…) In America, you can come with nothing, no penny, nothing, and you can become very wealthy. Tell me which Muslim country…"

Lewis: "Is there a school where they teach you these American clichés? Is it part of your application process? I'm sorry -- I'm so upset, I'm losing my cards here. I can't believe you just said that!"

And yet: millions of Canadian tax dollars helped groom Avi Lewis for the cameras since he first joined the CBC back in 1998. Now he's taken that expensive training and precious exposure – which countless Canadian citizens who didn't win the gene pool lottery will never have the opportunity to enjoy – and gone to work for a network that actively supports the destruction of the culture that made his career possible

A traitor deserves every punishment they get... Jews, learn from the Italians how my people treated traitors.. cement shoes and very cold river.

[Ari]

Yes, you guys did a good job on Mousollini.

[spiritus_persona]

He's a self-hating Jew, after all.  He'll get fired after a few weeks or better yet beheaded because he is Jewish.  It's nice to know that this guy is cursed.

[Rubystars]

If he got killed because he was Jewish, wouldn't that mean that he would automatically have special status though?

I thought if a Jew was killed because they were a Jew that they were considered to be a Jewish martyr. I can see why people might not be too fond of this man though.

Only if he was a good person Ruby.

This shouldn't be surprising. We in jtf know what evil self hating kikes are capable of.

I think they'd make an exception for a lowlife like this guy.
