Gets Arrested…For Being Part Of ISIS

Gee, who could have guessed? Not MSNBC, apparently…

Oops

Leftists

We need to deport all of these Muslims with the Mexicans!

What is the over under on clock boy becoming a bomb maker? That was a great poster boy that the leftists picked.

No libs commenting on this member of the "peaceful" religion?

Wasn't even true.

Quote:But the story is entirely false: a fabrication. Neither Long nor his wife or daughter have been arrested on charges that he joined ISIS. He faces no criminal charges of any kind in Turkey.

Instead, he and his family are being detained at the Geri Gonderme Merkezi deportation center in Erzurum, Turkey, evidently because he was placed years ago by the U.S. on its no-fly list. And the U.S. Embassy in Ankara has been working continually with Long’s family to secure his release, and, if he chooses, his return to the U.S.

Oops.

Other than the theintercept story claiming the pj story is completely false, I don't see anything actually, you know, um, proving it's completely false.

The only substantial difference is one says he was arrested, the other cries "liar, liar" he was merely "detained". For deportation. And does go on to admit he may or may not face charges by either the US or Turkey. He wanted to move to Turkey. The US is working to bring him here.

theintercept criticizes pj for "anonymous US and Turkey sources" then supposedly debunks those sources with "a Turkish source with substantial connections to law enforcement agencies in Gaziantep". lol.

theintercept cries foul and then dives into a lengthy and bs rant.

This may or may not be a fine upstanding American. Who knows at this point. A lot to be told yet and premature to be calling a story with the quite common "anonymous" sources a lie. Especially coming from the fuckwads claiming it's all lies. Really, you don't have to believe pjmedia, but taking the word of terrorists sympathizers over them? Scandalous. lol.

Need more info myself but that information will have to come from somewhere credible not CAIR or Greenwald or Muslim Brotherhood lawyers. Seriously, the spin and strawmen in theintercept article is laughable. It offers nothing.

Do you have something more substantial than liberal mouthpiece The Intercept? Anything that comes out of First Look Media, which The Intercept is, might as well be published with the DNC logo in the header.

Quote:Born: June 21, 1967

Net Worth: $7.6 Billion

Foundation: Omidyar Network Fund, Democracy Fund

Rating: 2 out of 5

Media Outlets: First Look Media, Center for Public Integrity, Center for Responsive Politics, Sunlight Foundation

EBay founder and chairman Pierre Omidyar took the idea of funding the liberal media one step further when he built a media powerhouse all of his own. He used $250 million of his own money and created the news start-up First Look Media.

Omidyar staffed First Look with career liberal journalists from other outlets, including The Guardian’s Glenn Greenwald and Slate’s Matt Taibbi. Greenwald’s liberal rants now have a prominent place at The Intercept, First Look’s online magazine. That was the only news-oriented part of the website up and running at the time of this report.

Greenwald was one of two journalists entrusted by Edward Snowden with the leaked NSA documents. (The other, Laura Poitras, also works at The Intercept.) According to the outlet’s own website, The Intercept’s “short-term mission is to provide a platform to report on the documents previously provided by NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden.”

According to Greenwald, The Intercept launched earlier than originally planned due to an “obligation to the NSA documents to have a place to report them.” Besides reporting on the Snowden documents, The Intercept promised to “move forward with what we believe is essential reporting in the public interest.”

Because of his connection to Snowden, Greenwald’s romantic partner, David Miranda, was temporarily held at London’s Heathrow airport in August 2013 under the U.K.’s Terrorism Act 2000. British authorities confiscated Miranda’s external hard drive containing “58,000 highly classified UK intelligence documents,” according to Greenwald’s then-employer The Guardian. Starting in June, 2013, Greenwald wrote a series of articles publicizing material from Snowden’s stolen files.

Omidyar prefers to keep his own politics quiet, but his funding revealed what his words didn’t. Through his foundation, the Omidyar Network Fund, he gave more than $213 million to liberal organizations – in addition to the $250 million he spent on First Look.

The liberal groups he funded included George Soros’ Open Society Foundations, the Tides Foundation (a foundation used to funnel liberal money anonymously to a variety of causes), as well as left-wing journalism groups like the Center for Public Integrity and the Center for Responsive Politics.

Another one of Omidyar’s pet projects was promoting the idea of a “post-political” world. At first, the idea of a world without political bickering might sound appealing, but Omidyar’s end goal was to limit political opposition to the majority.

Omidyar himself said as much in the announcement notice for the creation of his latest grantmaking operation, the Democracy Fund. In the January 2013 open letter, Omidyar repeatedly accused the Republican-dominated Congress of being run by “big donors and lobbyists,” as well as being “dominated by the demonization of opponents and deceptive political rhetoric.”

Snowden. Explains why anyone would be on that site. Some can't suck enough Snowden ****.

You were happy to report the source-free Pajamas Media as the truth because you wanted it to be the truth.

Now, sources matter.

Wait, do you still think this actually happened? Some of you around here really just bum me out because you're so eager to buy into anything that confirms your worldview that you ignore the simple fact that the only source reporting this was Pajama Media, and provided no source of their own to substantiate the claim.

How about an actual news organization saying it's unfounded?

Or a national news organization reporting on his suit against the US because of this detention?

Come on.

If I had done this you and a bunch of other cons would have jumped on me for being an idiot liberal only trying to deflect. The fact of the matter is that you blasted a lib for using a left leaning source in an argument where the source was a right-ring website. (their name is a direct shot at CBS).

Once I called you out on this your response was again, another right-leaning website blasting that left leaning source.

All of this happening while you completely failed to cite any reason related to the actual text of that left-leaning source as to why it was wrong. Nor did you ever acknowledge the hypocrisy/double standard of what you did, and instead did it again.

You have absolutely no shame...
