bcove.me/8eug88om Tensions mounted on Fox News’ “Hannity” on Thursday night as host Sean Hannity clashed with a Palestinian-American guest on his show. “Is Hamas a terrorist organization?” Hannity asked Yousef Munayyer, the executive director of The Jerusalem Fund for Education and Community Development and its educational program, the Palestine Center. “Do I get to actually speak now?” Munayyer answered. “You have to answer the question, it’s a simple yes or no question,” Hannity said. “Sir, you invited me on here as a guest,” Munayyer said. Hannity began to yell over Munayyer, saying “I’m asking a question. Is Hamas, whose charter calls for the destruction of Israel, is that a terrorist organization? That’s a yes or no question.” “Thank you for your question, now I will provide an answer,” Munayyer began, as Hannity shouted the question repeatedly. “It’s very telling to me, and it should be telling to your viewers as well, that the moment you have a Palestinian voice on your program who begins to explain the legitimate grievances of the Palestinians, not just Hamas.” Hannity cut off Munayyer, shouting at him to answer the question. At one point, Munayyer said that “the United States certainly considers Hamas a terrorist organization we all know that.” “Is Hamas a terrorist organization? What part of this can’t you get through your thick head?” Hannity pressed. At the end of the exchange, Munayyer asked if he would “get to say anything in this conversation.” Hannity responded, “You had your chance, you didn’t say Hamas is a terrorist organization. Goodbye.”

Would only the guest have replied, "Yes, or no, Hamas is much like the IDF re: terrorism."

Anyone that considers Fauxnews as conservative needs a saliva check.
Absolute Truth.

Murdock will give potato head two schmears on his bagel tomorrow. Hannity responded, “You had your chance, you didn’t say Hamas is a terrorist organization. Goodbye.”

With Hannity, O'Really and Kelly, Fox has three abrasive, rude, shouters, all Israel shills.

I don't know if any of you watch the www.prisonplanet.tv channel I posted all the log-in info to access, but today, David Knight revealed that they are in negotiations with lamestream media to broadcast the Nightly News.

I can't make a cogent argument against that, all three would see me dead from an imported disease before I would be allowed to repel the mestizo invasion. Three Irish quislings who deserve their heads paraded about on pikes.

This is a politically correct chimpout if there ever was one (Being on the side of Israel is always PC), and he knew that he had nothing to lose but everything to gain by playing the good little Zionist lapdog. He brought on that Palestinian not as a guest, but as a strawman dummy to beat around and prove his loyalty to the zionist regime to anyone who may be wondering if he's due for a promotion yet. Hannity is a radio hack with no redeemable features whatsoever; he employs a typical dunce-level 500 word vocabulary to deliver smarmy politically-correct propaganda or offer up bush-league, lightweight argumentative chimpouts which is targeted towards eliciting hoo-ha's from the average tard republican voter. Additionally, unlike most nationally-syndicated radio hosts, Hannity has no sort of 'schtick' that sets himself apart as unique or even noteworthy in any way. It is truly amazing that a talentless hack like Sean Hannity has wormed his way up to where he is.

I think it's noteworthy that Hannity put this guy in a box and doesn't allow him to express his views, and has nothing but contempt for him when he wants to be treated like a normal human being. It's the exact same attitude that Israelis have toward Gazans and Palestinians. They (literally) put them in a box and treat them like crap and wonder why they aren't loved. With this, Hannity unintentionally illustrates the whole problem with Israel in the ME.

Hannity is the idiot little brother to John "Kill for Israel!" Hagee.
