Fox News Owner Funnels Money to Cordoba House

While we are on the subject of radical Islamic connections to the GOP, it's worth pausing for a second to realize that right wing media, Fox News, is also partially owned by the Saudi royal family.  I first wrote about this earlier in the year.  And it seems everyone knows it except Republicans Fox News viewers.  Saudi Prince Alwaleed bin Talal is the second largest shareholder of News Corp, Fox's parent company.  The prince is also the same guy that offered NYC $10 million shortly after 9/11 to help pay for cleanup.  Then mayor Rudy Giuliani famously denied the money citing terrorist connections.

Saudi Prince Alwaleed bin Talal
Giuliani was right.  Saudi Arabia is the largest terrorist supporting country in the world.  15 of the 19 hijackers on 9/11 came from Saudi Arabia.  Not from Iraq but from SAUDI ARABIA.  It's a farce of history that this isn't talked about more.  Instead we have to talk about Islamic centers being built in Manhattan and how that's a step too far for the crazy right wing.

Speaking of Islamic centers housed a few blocks from where 15 Saudi nationals helped fly airplanes into two large skyscrapers bringing them tumbling down and killing thousands of innocent people.  This Islamic center known as the Cordoba House is being funded in part by none other than Fox News' second largest shareholder, Prince Alwaleed bin Talal.  Yes this is the very same prince that tried to give $10 million to NYC.  The very same prince whose kingdom is the largest world supporter of Islamic terrorism.  The very same prince that meets regularly with Rupert Murdoch.  And the very same prince that Fox News hosts just recently chastised for trying to fund the Cordoba House and having ties to terrorism.

The whole thing is really amazing when you stop and think about it.  Fox News' largest stakeholder, next to Rupert Murdoch, is helping finance the Cordoba House.  Just let that sink in.
