Al Jazeera International chooses Apple Technology | Arab Business Machine (ABM)

We all know that Al Jazeera is a terrorist front, and now we know they use Macs.

What can we read into this? Boycott Apple just like we did the Dixie Chix? OS X facilitates terrorists and their media outlet? Mac use correlates with hating freedom? My prediction: the end of predictions.

OT: do we (collective Western patriots) ever suspect the worldwide jihadist menace of disinformation?

Ha, the first reply to each thread is that it should be in the other forum.

Armchair mods need to get a life.

I didn't say it should be in the other forum. I said it was in the other forum.

Jihadist using disinformation? Pfft. Unlikely.

As an aside: your move into the fold of Bush loving American Patriots is almost complete, Uncle Skeleton.

Good for you!

And I guess CNN is an arm of the US military... Though they offer a voice for the "enemy", our media is just as one sided...

The fact that they are a news agency using Macs is NOT a story. Macs are the platform of choice in most publishing/media companies...
