New "Fitna" link

One reason that the images in Fitna are so shocking is rather simple: the refusal of the main stream media to show what the Jihad has been doing. Try finding, for example, the images of some West Bank Arabs cheering and handing out candy upon viewing the 9/11 WTC attacks. It's pretty much impossible. Or recall the London bombings, the Madrid bombings: those images didn't get shown all that widely on CNN, and other news channels. Or recall the pixellation of the Mohammed cartoons; it's as if Mohammed was in the US Witness Protection Program, and I don't recall any main stream outlet doing similar things with images of "Piss Christ".

So the MSM has been self-censoring for several years now. This makes Fitna more shocking, because it displays images that, to be blunt, have been deliberately withheld from us all, by the gatekeepers in the broadcast and print media.

Fitna therefore is a kind of attack upon this self censorship.

Thanks, Lynn. I would imagine I would have found the images of people jumping from the Twin Towers on 9/11 equally disturbing as the beheading. I can tolerate images of violence in moderation, but the knowledge that the images in Fitna are genuine makes it harder for me to envision watching it.
