H/T The Jawa Report
I'm shocked,..SHOCKED I TELL YOU, that a Left-wing, liberal humping Canadian TV network would have a Taliban sympathizer in its employ. How could this have happened? DUH!!
The U.S. military confirmed yesterday that it was holding an Afghan reporter, Jawad Ahmad [pictured right], because of his extensive ties to the Taliban. Jawad was a stringer for Canadian Television (CTV).
Apparently his cell phone had Taliban phone numbers on them and indicated that the journalist had done extensive interviews with them. He also was in possession of Taliban propaganda videos.
Have we just met the Afghani Bilal Hussein?
Reporters Without Borders, of course, is outraged that a journalist--a journalist!--is being detained. After all, aren't all journalist--journalists!--immune from any and all suspicion?
To be honest, this may be one time (finally) that Reporters Without Borders has something intelligent to say (maybe). I have Taliban phone numbers and plenty of Taliban propaganda on my computer. Granted, I've never actually given Zahidullah Mujahid or Qari Mohammad Yousuf a phone call, but still I have them. Our friends at the NEFA Foundation have. They certainly aren't rooting for the Taliban.
I'm not a fan of media types doing interviews with the Taliban, but it's common practise. AP, AFP, & Reuters routinely quote Qari Mohammed Yousef.

actually CTV is very much a center, right-wing station.
"actually CTV is very much a center, right-wing station."
Yes, but JAWA is a nazi.
Actually, CTV used to be in the centre, but has gradually adopt a left-wing slant and are not the independent media they once were. Now they are more shilling for the liberals and NDP. Too bad, I used to like watching them. But not anymore!
Never let reality interfere with the liberal mindset, Just hug a taliban today and all will be fine right?
Anyone who shills for the taliban is either ignorant or a traitor, take your pick "anonymous'.
