This was broadcast last week on the US-based channel Alhurra, which broadcasts in Arabic to the MENA region. Alhurra is owned by Middle East Broadcasting Networks, a non-profit organization financed by the U.S. Agency for Global Media (USAGM), a federal agency funded by the U.S. Congress.
Alhurra broadcasts in Arabic, but it seems there is nobody checking the content. As most of the anchors are Muslims, they let many hate speech segments get out without any problem. The example here took place last week on their popular show “Disagreed Upon,” or in Arabic, “Mukhtalaf Alayh.” The Egyptian anchor Ibrahim Issa hosted an ex-member of the Iraqi parliament, a Shia cleric whose name is Iyad Jamal Al-Din. The discussion was about Macron, France and Muslims. Iyad Jamal Al-Din said: “Macron is not allowed to say that Islam is in crisis, he is just an uncircumcised [that is, filthy or unclean] Christian.” The segment was broadcast including this remark.
On an American channel paid by Americans taxpayers, who are predominantly Christians, the producers and managers allow hate speech against Christians. Ironically, Iyad Jamal Al-Din left Iraq and the UAE to apply for asylum in the US, which is full of “uncircumcised Christians.”

What would anyone like to bet that those 15 senators who wrote the infamous letter to fb are all fine with this?
And just what will be done about it? It’s most likely answerable in one word, , seven letters long, and begins with an N.
Just keep the scum slug out. America doesn’t need any people such as he…and there are already thousands of them here.
And I don’t approve of any of my money being spent on a group of moslims and their lying insults about Christians.
Unlike social media that the U.S. government doesn’t fund, it’s possible to intervene in the publishing of such garbage as this.
If they don’t want to interfere in the “free speech,’ they still don’t have to pay to have it broadcast.
This entire system is corrupt and serves the purposes of satan.

Video: Guest on US-funded Alhurra denigrates Christians
………………….
Why the hell are we funding this unless we are keeping a *very* close eye on its content? Suicidal insanity.
By the way,”Al Hurra” means “free woman” (or it may just mean “whore”, depending on the translation)–not if you are a Christian, apparently…

God is watching islam and his time of wrath is not yet but it shall come soon
Lion heart says
Graham : and this filthy Shiite cleric is supposed to be a “ moderate “ 😂 and I am a Canadian Christian guy originally from Iraq and our Christian ancestors said it hundreds of years ago “ If a Muslim is a piece of gold, don’t put it into your pocket otherwise it rip through” meaning when Muslims have the chance and the ability to harm nonMuslims especially Christians and Jews , they would do it without any kind of hesitation at all and we saw it in Iraq after the fall of Saddam’s bloody regime where many Muslims ( except some nice ones among them who are far from Islam ) and they betrayed the Christians by collaborating with ISIS and al-Qaeda and they joined those terrorist groups and they helped them kill Christians, kidnap& rape Christian girls for not wearing the hijab and die wearing western style clothes , they also helped those terrorists kick Christians out of their homes and loot their property and they even ordered the Muslim grocery stores not to sell anything to Christians especially in Mosul and some parts of Baghdad , and even the long-time Muslim neighbours to Christians have stabbed Christians in the back by doing what I have just mentioned earlier and not only that but also , many Iraqi Arab Muslims who have worked as interpreters with the US army , they too have betrayed the Americans by snitching on them to their fellow Islamic terrorists of Al-Qaeda and ISIS through texting by showing them the whereabouts of the American military convoys so that those terrorists would ambush the American troops and kill them while sparing the lives of their fellow Muslims! . Muslims also including the Shiites like the notorious terrorist militia of Al-Mahdi army have destroyed ALL the liquor stirs of the Christians especially in Baghdad and Basra not to mention in Mosul by the Sunnis there because alcohol in all its kinds is forbidden ( haram ) in Islam . Muslims also have giving the Christians three choice according to the Quran 9:29 : convert to Islam, or pay the Jizya or die ! and then did kill many Christians who refused to convert to Islam nor to pay the Jizya and some of the Christian teens where beheaded by ISIS in an area out side Baghdad after refusing to convert to Islam , and they threw some Christians who also refuse to convert to Islam into wells abdvthey room many Christians as sex slaves and they did many other horrible things to Christians of Iraq after they had taken Islam seriously and put its evil teaching into practice and after all this , Muslims come along and shamelessly say that ISIS are the product of the USA and the West 😂😂 and yet when Muslims come to the West , they play victims and accuse any one who raise awareness about the evil of jihad in Islam of islamophobia

This silly wee closet homosexual turbaned nutcase moves to America, gets free stuff from all those dirty Christians… can you spell… hypocrisy.
If his allah dude created all humanity and all life then my question is, was allah having a bad day when he created the foreskin, how about way too much skin around the vagina, I mean those two human parts just dont seem too important I guess as muslim men feel the need to change the handiwork of there allah dude, hoow about dogs and pigs, did allah screw up when he created them… Its all so confusing…
Why was these silly wee prick even allowed into the USA, or did he come in during the time the USA had a muslim President… Hmmmm…

Andrew, this thug is Iraqi–he is, thankfully, not in the United States. But our funding this savagery is insanity.

The Lord God is watching the evil doings of islam radical extremists(the minority of islam) and his time of wrath is not yet but he has appointed a time of punishment for islam when he reveals himself tpo this earth in the clouds of heaven-‘Everyone shall see him coming in great power and glory.”……the Holy Bible scriptures state

Jihad terror is neither “extremist” nor is it a minority in Islam–it is instead orthodox Islam. Not all Muslims wage Jihad, but most support it.

OLD GUY says
Once again why are we the American tax payer paying for this crap. If a Christian went on national television here in the U.S. and denigrated Islam all hell would breakout. The politicians would automatically call for defunding the program. There seems to be vary little control and oversight of our tax dollars being spent and given away through foreign aid.
