Thread: Fox News Apocalypse Iran Propaganda

  1. #1

    Fox News Apocalypse Iran Propaganda

    Fox News is airing a special on the apocalypse They had a guy claim that Iran would attack Israel during the apocalypse. Even for Fox, this is pretty low. I wonder how many conservatives will want to attack Iran even more fervently now.

    For some reason, I get the feeling "Oh Lord" probably isn't the exclamation you are hoping for when readers see this thread.

    Let's just hope that this blatant use of mythology to beat the war drums is a sign of desperation in the face of their waning political influence.

    All Fox has to do is start promoting war with anybody and neo-cons dressed up as conservatives will be all over it. They could start ratcheting up talk against Sweeden and they would be all for it as long as Hannity and Rush were ok with it.

    Nah, she'll still listen to you. She's going to hear the other stuff, anyway, and grandmas are important in so many other ways.

    Fox hasn't been on on a good fear propaganda spiel to drum up ratings for a while. They're due for one, the whole point of feeling sorry for yourself phase can't last in popularity forever.


    I wouldn't doubt Iran being the subject at all.

    Dangerous foreign nations are always a good seller.

    There's never going to be a nation too weak, too far away, too technologically lagging or too impoverished to not threaten everyone's life and freedoms to them to believe we shouldn't get involved. Maybe dress up an embassy nicely, and watch the civil war actively going on in a country we helped stir a little, I hear.
    Forget guards though.

    Iran's at least got an army, and you know, running water.

    We're doomed.

    *waves fingers* be afraid.

    Foreign threats to my freedom health and property aren't even in my top 20.

    I am pretty sure the Apocalypse either requires America to be destroyed alrready, or lining up to be the first to attack Israel.
    In New Zealand:
    The Coastguard is a Charity
    Air Traffic Control is a private company run on user fees
    The DMV is a private non-profit
    Rescue helicopters and ambulances are operated by charities and are plastered with corporate logos
    The agriculture industry has zero subsidies
    5% of the national vote, gets you 5 seats in Parliament
    A tax return has 4 fields
    Business licenses aren't a thing
    Prostitution is legal
    We have a constitutional right to refuse any type of medical care

    wow. so low. i dont believe that attacking israel will do anything as far as god or jesus are concerned. i suppose they just garnered more support for the wars over there. i bet every person in my family will fall for it.

    The level of paranoia and misinformation among the standard Fox News viewer is truly scary. The re-election of Obama combined with war in Gaza and tons of propaganda has driven them into a hysteria.

    WTF did I just watch? Only that guy on the left side of the bar seems to be sober.

    Four people walk into a bar and sit down together...

    One of 'em says, "Hey buddy, is it your birthday or sumptin'?"

    "No, what makes you say that?"

    "Because all those yellow cake crumbs on your lips and that white powder under your nose make it look like you just blew a seal."

    "Them's not crumbs, they're just nuts!"

    "Are you willing to kill because of that?"

    "Sure."

    These people (MSM zombies) are legitimately very immediate and very violent threats to all of us. I wouldn't allow my children anywhere near them. They'd eat their granddaughter if it meant keeping Israel safe.
    I am the spoon.

    The Schizophrenic Evangelical Fox Mind - I want to witness every Muslim nation attacking Israel from multiple directions which will bring on the Apocalypse and the Rapture, but.....then again.....I don't know if I want to float up to Jesus yet, what with Christmas coming and my grandkids getting older. I'm not sure about all the eternal souls I care about and whether they will make it yet so I don't know who will get to float up with me right now so ask me again later.....Sure is exciting to watch (on Fox) though!

    ZING!
    Based on the idea of natural rights, government secures those rights to the individual by strictly negative intervention, making justice costless and easy of access; and beyond that it does not go. The State, on the other hand, both in its genesis and by its primary intention, is purely anti-social. It is not based on the idea of natural rights, but on the idea that the individual has no rights except those that the State may provisionally grant him. It has always made justice costly and difficult of access, and has invariably held itself above justice and common morality whenever it could advantage itself by so doing.

    I can't get over their "news" set here: It's a bar, they're sitting on bar stools with booze bottles in the background as they discuss starting WW3.

    At least there are no turkeys getting their throats slit in the background (OK, admittedly that was more interesting than looking at Palin).
