A simple example of taqiyya

by "Robert Houghton" <robert45@[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Mar 29, 2008 at 08:55 PM

I reply to Azumazi

You endeavour, as you constantly do, to discredit MEMRI as a source of 
information about the Middle East. But you produce no evidence that its 
re****ts are falsified; you merely insinuate and smear.

Brian Whitaker of the UK "Guardian" is the foremost journalistic opponent
of 
MEMRI, but he is unable to prove falsification; at the most there are 
quibbles about the translation of the Arabic - insignificant against the 
background of MEMRI's extensive output. (See the Wikipedia article). 
Whitaker's objections to MEMRI are (feebly) that its "stories reflect
badly 
on Arabs" (So they must be untrue!); it "furthers the political agenda of 
Israel" (So again MEMRI must be lying!); and that MEMRI makes no mention
of 
the president of MEMRI's previous work as an Israeli intelligence officer 
(this is a well known fact.) For Whitaker, the fact that the president, 
Carmon, was an intelligence officer makes it legitimate to ask whether
MEMRI 
is a trustworthy vehicle. Certainly it is legitimate to ask - indeed it
must 
be asked - but what is the answer to the question? No evidence that MEMRI
is 
untrustworthy is forthcoming.

Where's your evidence that my material translated by MEMRI is unreliable?
