al-Reuters’ Agenda
Charles Johnson points us to this “news” story from the disgusting rats at Reuters on today’s opening of a conference of Holocaust deniers in Iran. Note how a certain former Klansman is referred to. (Emphasis added.)
Sessions at the two-day conference, held at the Foreign Ministry’s Institute for Political and International Studies, were to include “Holocaust: Aftermath and Exploitation” and “Demography: Denial or Confirmation?”
The conference was inspired by President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, who since coming to power in August 2005 has sparked international condemnation with comments referring to the Holocaust as a “myth” and calling Israel a “tumor”.
Among the participants was U.S. academic David Duke, a former Louisiana Republican Representative. He praised Iran for hosting the event.
“There must be freedom of speech, it is scandalous that the Holocaust cannot be discussed freely,” Duke, a former Ku Klux Klan leader told Reuters. “It makes people turn a blind eye to Israel’s crimes against the Palestinian people.”
If you were to ask a hundred American citizens with even the most rudimentary recollection of David Duke what he is best known for, which brain-damaged fuck among them would think to call Duke an “academic”? How many more would blurt out, “Oh! He was that state representative from Louisiana!”? Maybe a couple? Okay.
But if these cititzens are honest, they will surely recall that Duke was a Klansman and remains a notorious racist. So why does the KKK come fourth in a list of “academic,” “Republican,” and “representative”? Because Reuters is a chickenshit propaganda arm of the anti-American Left.
Naturally, Duke —as a Republican— is very interesting to al-Reuters’ readership. Never mind that as a high-profile leader of the KKK, Duke was a Democrat and ran for political office as such. Why wasn’t that also mentioned? Because dumbasses don’t really stop to consider that the Ku Klux Klan has always been a Democratic institution. Just ask Robert Byrd.
Anyway, it is obviously al-Reuters’ way to dignify Holocaust deniers with irrelevant or misleading descriptors so long as they serve whatever anti-American agenda they have in mind.
