Hmm ... aren't associations with Palestinians enough for RWers to say that someone "supports
terrorists"???

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alwaleed_Bin_Talal

in 2002, Rupert Murdoch's buddy Alwaleed bin Talal gave $27 million to Palestinian families ... in Repub/Teabaggers/Conservative eyes, showing any sympathy for Palestinians is tantamount to supporting terror and evil ...

Oh, and AbT also donated $500K to the George Herbert Walker Bush scholarship ...

1. Saddam sending money to Palestinians was one of the justifications that RW'ers gave for the Iraq War
Once it became apparent that no WMDs would be found.

So, when do we begin Operation Fox News Liberation?

K&R.

2. I remember when George Soros giving money to "Air America"
was enough justification for tarring and feathering him ...

I guess it's okay if it's a Right-winger who's raking in the blood money ...

3. IIRC he didn't even give money to Air America
The far right somehow has this idea that every liberal in the world is personally funded by George Soros and that led them to assume that Air America had benefitted from his largesse. They used to believe that everything they disapproved of was controlled by the International Jewish Conspiracy, but I guess with budget cuts and everything, they've had to reduce that to a single Jew.

5. "The Single Jew Theory"
Someone is mapping this out as we speak...... Or was Kissinger the prototype?

4. Seems to have ground to halt for the present
but to condemn in that way they'd have condemn the EU. Good luck to them with that one - tossers.
