Glenn Beck Finds "Communist" Art At NBC's Headquarters

RadHazG says...

How in the hell is this man still on TV after all those advertisers quite plainly stated they wanted no part of him? How much does this guy have to cost Fox in pure dollars before they finally trash him?

My theory : Glenn Beck is a secret supporter of China! Why? Look at all the stars on his show! My god man, he's got stars everywhere! You do realize that the Chinese flag's main symbol is a star right?

Funny website btw, if perhaps a bit...macabre.

That Iranian girl that was shot (Worldaffairs Talk Post)

kronosposeidon says...

I disagree. "Snuff" implies they have no redeeming value, i.e., they simply exist for macabre rubber-necking purposes. What happened to Neda is newsworthy, and we have allowed newsworthy deaths to be posted here before. It's no different than this:



That footage became a symbol of the Vietnam War. We've all seen stills of this in our history books. Is it still snuff? Neda's sad death has become symbolic of the Iranian struggle for freedom. Don't suppress it because it makes you uncomfortable. Don't help the Iranian government get away with this.

The first sifter who posted it shouldn't have discarded it, in my opinion. We only need one here, just like we only need one of any video here. But don't discard them all.

Gaza war tourism (THIS IS SICK!)

gwiz665 says...

Translation

It didn't look like a cease-fire from where we stood and looked towards Gaza. On the contrary.

The day after the suggestion from the UN about cease-fire, they fired on each other. First Hamas declined the cease-fire then Isreal did as well.

[Interview]"It would be better if they struck deep, cleared the whole Gaza strip and annihilated Hamas. This is the right way, there is nothing else to do."

In Israel along the border to Gaza a macabre form of tourism has emerged.

[english not translated]

From the hills, the Israelis follow the bombings of Gaza and eat the food they brought along at the same time.

[english not translated]

This hilltop is a traditional retreat, where ornithologists usually look for birds. Now they follow bombings. In the skies the bombings draw beautiful, but deadly patterns.

[english not translated]

But among the war-tourists we also found people, who very much want cease-fire, just not now, because the enemy is not yet struck (~defeated).

[Interview] At some time we will be on speaking terms again, but first they need to be shaken, so they really wake up. Maybe they will come to their senses, so there are someone to talk to.

If you are afraid to fly.. Don't watch this!

blankfist says...

What?! Discard?! Snuff is snuff, but this is newsworthy footage in my opinion, so it doesn't deserve to be discarded. I agree the tongue-in-cheek nature of the title is a bit appalling, and the Top Gun soundtrack doesn't help to make it not feel atrociously macabre. But, I don't think this isn't Siftworthy.

Mintbbb, I think you made a mistake for discarding this video.

Things that We all should be Aware: A healthy dose of fear (Worldaffairs Talk Post)

choggie says...

Nah, expect a worry-up until, some transition which one can imagine may be simultaneously farcical and macabre, a break for coffee, resume shit-storm with new puppetron unit, and as the ceiling cat spaketh thru the jesus;

"u will hear ov wars an rumors ov wars, but c 2 it dat u r not alarmd. Such things must happen, but teh end iz still 2 come.7 nashun will rize against nashun, an kingdom against kingdom. Thar will be faminez an earthquakez in various placez.-Matthew 24:6-7-(lolcats translation)

Cirque Du Soleil long wheel of death

Fletch says...

I first saw Cirque Du Soleil in a huge tent in the parking lot of Jack Murphy Stadium in 90 or 91. With the live music and weird costumes... it was all just so macabre and strange. Wonderful show.

Most Under-Reported News Story of 2006 - 655,000 Iraqis Dead

Krupo says...

@Wumpus - if Iran were to attack Iraq they'd suffer even worse than the Americans are suffering now - while some Iraqis band together against Americans, the ensuing bloodbath against an Iranian invasion would be many times worse, despite the weak Iraqi government. IMHO, of course. But I see others have made the point too.

It'd be interesting - in a dark macabre fashion, of course - to see the effect of a foreign power attacking Iraq. It could easily escalate into a region-wide war (see Turks and Kurds getting in on the show, and everyone else joining in for one reason or another).

At least that "interesting" scenario isn't happening - a small mercy for sure!

@farhad - did the Americans even enter many significant parts of Iraq 'proper' back in '91? I was under the impression they didn't go to far deep in. And taht was the biggest disaster of course.

What I think most will agree with is that a REAL UN blue-helmet peacekeeping force is desperately needed there. When (if ever) it'll be deployed is beyond me. What I can, sadly, forsee is that whenever such a force DOES arrive, it'll be far too late.

I'm just guessing (and thinking back to some articles I've read recently), but there seem to be quite a few Iraqis who hope the Americans don't leave anytime soon, b/c that'll quickly lead to an even faster slaughter of human beings.
