Being "sensitive" to kidnappers


Recommended Posts

From Australia......

 

More Idiocy

 

Now our cultural elite backs terrorists against Douglas Wood, the Australian they kidnapped.

 

You say I exaggerate?

I reply: Andrew Jaspan.

 

Jaspan is editor-in-chief of The Age, Australia's most Left-wing daily newspaper, and on ABC radio on Wednesday said how "boorish" and "coarse" Wood was at his press conference this week when he called his captors "a---holes".

 

Said Jaspan: "I was, I have to say, shocked by Douglas Wood's use of the a---hole word, if I can put it like that, which I just thought was coarse and very ill-thought through and I think demeans the man and is one of the reasons why people are slightly sceptical of his motives and everything else.

 

"The issue really is largely, speaking as I understand it, he was treated well there. He says he was fed every day, and as such to turn around and use that kind of language I think is just insensitive."

"Insensitive" to the people who kidnapped him......

 

Oh well, but I'm sure Mr. Jaspan thinks Gitmo is a paradise. There wouldn't be a double standard involved right?
