Karnit Goldwasser was surprised at the respect that Mahmoud Ahmadinejad was recieveing from the media in New York.
YNET reported:
"He came in and started to smile at everyone. The reporters gave him great respect... As he walked by me he said hi to me, because he still didn't know who I was. He thought I was one of the supporting journalists, and that he was walking into a place where everyone loved him. He seemed very pleased," Goldwasser recounted.
Goldwasser said she was not afraid to present the president with her question, and asked him, "Hello, my name is Karnit, the wife of Ehud Goldwasser, the soldier who has been held captive for over a year. Since you are the man that is behind the kidnapping due to the aid you grant Hizbullah, why don't you allow the Red Cross to visit the two soldiers?" she asked.
The president ignored the question.

So, were the media types cheering the guards who dragged this poor woman out of there?
ReplyDeleteOh well, what's one eeevilll Zionist to International Leftists? They have a dictator to fete! Don't bum their high, man.
What is wrong with the media? Not one person stood up for this woman? Isn't this the same bunch that screamed about the Geneva Convention for the terrorists? What, not interested anymore, leftists? They are an affront to human decency.
"Don't bum their high, man."
ReplyDeleteNow that is funny!
Now that's Truth to Power, in case any lefty moonbats are curious.
ReplyDeleteFoxnews had this on their morning show this morning, they turned off her mike while she was still speaking, that's how he could just ignore the question. She kept talking, but nobody could hear her.
ReplyDeleteIt was wrong, so very wrong on so many levels.
