Belafonte on Wolf's show...

[berner59]

wow is he amazing - smacking down EVERYthing Wolf is trying to throw at him...we need to post the transcript when it comes up...

Sorry for the dupe...he is so calm with Wolf throwing stuff at him...

Debating "collatoral damage"...he says murder is murder...

[LSparkle]

1. OMG! He's GREAT!

"Our concern about collateral damage does not cleanse us."

WOWOWOWOWOWW!

[berner59]

2. headline underneath...

"Belafonte unbowed"...aint it the truth!!! Wolf is ready to cry...

Video must be seen...Wolf wanted him to take back every word and he stood his ground...OMG!!!!!

[LSparkle]

3. The fact that Wolfie is shutting up is testament ...

He doesn't know HOW to respond.

"Unfortunately, we're out of time" ... and you're out of WORDS, you WH shill!!!

[berner59]

4. yes...that's Wolf's sign...

crying Uncle...I can't spew any more WH crap out of me...times up then... Belafonte was amazing - he was saying where do we draw the line with killing...are we sitting on such a righteous plane that because we're killing over there - it's ok???? WOW!!!

[choicevoice]

5. Bravo to Mr. Belafonte

That was some of the best handling of Shitzer I have ever seen. Mr. Belafonte did not back down on one word and managed to come off as the truth tellng american that doesn't mind telling it as it is without sugar coating it or being politically correct. Bravo.

[vi5]

6. I had it on in the background, did I hear this correctly?

Belafonte when asked about the hitler comparisons said that maybe if people had spoken out sooner that it never would have gotten to the point that he did, and Wolf responded with "So you are blaming the Jews for what happened?"

Again, my wife had it on in the background so I can't say that was definitely how it went but it sure sounded like that.

[berner59]

7. That's what Wolf asked...

And Harry came back with "no...what I'm saying is that if citizens were aware and concerned, then maybe it would have never gotten that far..." You know CNN will splash the "blame the Jews headline" out there...

[Bozvotros]

8. That is exactly what he said, several times

And Belafonte handled it with grace and class, clarifying and elaborating on what he was saying. Telling him that if people, all people had stood up earlier, then Germany would not have evolved into what they did. He even told Blitzer once to "Listen to me" like Wolf was a total tool and dolt. Which of course he is.

[Astrad]

9. I was listening to it

and I am almost certain I heard him say 'if people had spoken up earlier' not 'if the jews had spoken up earlier'. That apparent miscontruing by Wolf seemed very transparent. Those who invoke Nazi metaphors must be anti-semites! (Unless they're talking about Saddam Hussein then it's okay.)

[BuyingThyme]

11. No, he said "Jews." (Or "Jewish people," etc.)

His point is that we are in the same boat. We are under attack and we need to stand up before we're destroyed, as were so many Jews.

[Astrad]

24. They just replayed the interview.

The exact quote was 'just maybe if the jews of Germany and people had spoken up...'

[SCRUBDASHRUB]

12. If Wolf had done his research, he'd have known this:

Harry Belafonte's grandfather was Jewish and his daughter's, Shari Belafonte, mother is Jewish.

[robbedvoter]

18. Also, that most people in Germany were, well...Germans.

[oasis]

27. Harry was illustrating what could happen if people don't speak up NOW.

Wolf isn't intersted in research he wants to distort Harry's words in an attempt to discredit him.

[HysteryDiagnosis]

10. Kicked and recommended, hope it will be combined with the

thread that no doubt will have the video of this.... cry Wolf cry... but it won't help, not this time..

[skooooo]

13. go Harry go!

[Dinger]

14. Just Before He Came On, The Ad Showed A Pic Of Belafonte and The Phrase. .

"Attack on the President"

:puke:

[sattahipdeep]

23. If Bush gets away with this

Harvey Wasserman
Are you ready to be bugged and tortured by George W. Bush?
January 19, 2006

This isn't about war: It's about dictatorship.

It’s about making power permanent by using private information
against you, and by terrifying you with torture.

Team Bush believes it rules by Divine right.
It has already re-defined "terrorist" to mean anyone who questions its power.
It will use "anti-terrorist" wiretapping as a tool against anyone who dares oppose it.

So ask yourself: if granted the power to torture, do you trust the Bush
Administration---or any regime- - to refrain from torturing its political opponents?
If granted the power to record private phone conversations, do you trust Karl Rove
to not use this material against his political opponents?

If Bush gets away with this, then it's simple: if you are too outspoken in opposing
this regime's destruction of social security, or the natural environment, or the
economy, you will sooner or later be subject to torture.

19. "Wolf's little secret". No disclosure yet from Wolf. Pat needs to be

asked about this on camera. You see, Pat can't be caught lying.

Thank you Harry. We love you.

DAYO!!!

[Gregorian]

22. DAYO!!!

Sorry. I couldn't help myself.

It just feels like the brave are finally speaking up. Why it took so long, I'll never know.
