“Amerikaz Most Wanted” Takes On O’Reilly

Regardless of what you may or may not think about Snoop Dogg, admittedly misogynistic gangsta rap, and the hip hop scene, Snoop’s recent appearance on a Dutch television talkshow is worth the watch—that is if you don’t mind a bit of profanity.

Snoop Dogg, aka Calvin Cordozar Broadus, Jr., had some choice words for the Fox News loudmouth, Bill O’Reilly, who wants the highly successful rap star slammed in prison for smoking marijuana and carrying “guns that can kill people.” It should come as no surprise O’Reilly wants Snoop Dogg locked up—he offered to build a special prison, just for Broadus, and name it the “Dog House”—as he obviously believes the state has the right to tell people what they can or cannot put in their bodies. As well, O’Reilly obviously has contempt for the Second Amendment, especially when it comes to people of color carrying weapons for protection (and, yes, Bill, like it or not, guns are designed for self defense).

No doubt O’Reilly would like to see Snoop Dogg endure the fate suffered by one of his previous victims, Sami al-Arian, who is near death in an Atlanta federal prison. Al-Arian, one of the most prominent Palestinian academics and activists in the United States, was acquitted last December of eight of 17 federal charges against him—he stood accused of racketeering, conspiracy, and providing material support to Islamic Jihad—and the jury deadlocked on the remaining charges. “The case of Sami al-Arian is a story of persecution, perseverance, and, ultimately, the determination of those in power to criminalize resistance and punish Palestinian activism, subverting not only the principles of justice but also their own criminal justice system in order to do so,” writes Charlotte Kates. In short, al-Arian is a political prisoner.

“I appreciate you coming on the program, but if I was the CIA, I’d follow you wherever you went. I’d follow you 24 hours,” O’Reilly said when al-Arian made the mistake of appearing on the “No Spin Zone” O’Reilly Factor. In the days following the unwise appearance, al-Arian received a spate of death threats, was arrested by the FBI, and was summarily fired from his position as a professor in the Computer Sciences Department at the University of South Florida in Tampa, Florida.

As the self-appointed attack dog of Bushzarro world, O’Reilly has lately taken on Rosie O’Donnell for expressing her opinion on the 15 British sailors held by Iran and, considered unpardonable by “conservatives” and neocons, her opinion the government was behind the events of September 11, 2001. “False flag operations are covert operations conducted by governments, corporations, or other organizations, which are designed to appear as if they are being carried out by other entities,” O’Donnell wrote on her blog earlier in the week. For the crime of deviating from the sort of government propaganda and brainwashing dispensed by Fox News—essentially the Bush Ministry of Disinformation—O’Reilly has called for ABC to fire Rosie. “These women aren’t speaking for themselves,” O’Reilly said of the View’s O’Donnell and Joy Behar. “And I think both of you understand what I’m saying. They’re spitting out the worst propaganda that is fed to them by far-left American haters on the net.”

Simply demanding ABC fire O’Donnell, of course, is not enough. Hours after the popular television host made her remarks, MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough had the washed up childhood actor and former drug addict Danny Bonaduce on his show. “Personally I think at this point if anyone had a rope thick enough, I think that Rosie should be strung up for treason,” Bonaduce told the washed-up “conservative” politician Scarborough. “Because Bonaduce doesn’t have the intellectual capacity nor the decorum to calmly refute Rosie with reasoning, logic and evidence, his only recourse is to impetuously demand she be killed,” notes Paul Joseph Watson. In fact, Bonaduce’s vicious remarks are part and parcel of the neocon strategy to undermine all who have the audacity to question the government and the official version of events, essentially a Brothers Grimm story on steroids.

In order to understand the mindset behind these attacks, consider O’Reilly’s segment with “conservative” (i.e., neocon) radio talkshow host Mike Gallagher. In the segment, O’Reilly claims questioning the government is not a “free speech issue,” as the Bill of Rights gives “another tool” to “America’s enemies,” that is to say terrorists groomed and nurtured by the CIA and Pakistan’s ISI. Gallagher, to his credit, defends the First Amendment right of the billionaire entrepreneur Mark Cuban, who will apparently distribute the film “Loose Change Final Cut” which will be narrated by Charlie Sheen.

It is “not a free speech argument” to question the government and obviously Bill O’Reilly would like nothing better than to see Rosie O’Donnell, Mark Cuban, Charlie Sheen, and no small number of lesser known critics of the government suffer the fate of Sami al-Arian, if not, as the reactionary Danny Bonaduce would have it, strung up from the nearest oak tree. But then, fascists of O’Reilly and Bonaduce’s ilk are notorious—or rather their henchmen and sycophants are notorious—for torturing and killing all who would dare question their orthodoxy, that is after they manage to get them fired, disgraced, and followed around by the CIA.
