Flirting With Fascism on CNN Headline News

Host Glenn Beck threatens Muslims with concentration camps:

The New York Times (12/4/06), profiling new CNN Headline News host Glenn Beck, called him "brash" and "opinionated," with an "unfiltered approach." The conservative talk-radio host-turned-cable news announcer, the paper reported, "take[s] credit for saying what others are feeling but are afraid to say."

The Times mentioned one of the things Beck has said recently, to newly elected U.S. Rep. Keith Ellison (D-Minn.), a Muslim: "Sir, prove to me that you are not working with our enemies." But as press critic Eric Alterman pointed out (Altercation, 12/4/06), as offensive as that question is, it doesn't begin to suggest the poisonousness of Beck's rhetoric about Muslims.

On his August 10 radio show, distributed by Clear Channel's Premiere Radio Networks, Beck told listeners, "The world is on the brink of World War III," then issued this warning:

All you Muslims who have sat on your frickin' hands the whole time and have not been marching in the streets and have not been saying, 'Hey, you know what? There are good Muslims and bad Muslims. We need to be the first ones in the recruitment office lining up to shoot the bad Muslims in the head.' I'm telling you, with God as my witness... human beings are not strong enough, unfortunately, to restrain themselves from putting up razor wire and putting you on one side of it. When things—when people become hungry, when people see that their way of life is on the edge of being over, they will put razor wire up and just based on the way you look or just based on your religion, they will round you up. Is that wrong? Oh my gosh, it is Nazi, World War II wrong, but society has proved it time and time again: It will happen.


On September 5, Beck took the same message to his CNN Headline News audience, declaring, "In 10 years, Muslims and Arabs will be looking through a razor wire fence at the West." He explained:

Since 9/11, Americans have gotten so fed up with the "yes, but" Muslims. The "yes, but" Muslims are the ones who show up on talkshows and in the media and say, "Yes, terrorism is bad, but"—and then they go through a list of reasons on why we should try and sympathize with people who fly planes into buildings.... If, God forbid, there's another attack, we won't have anymore patience for the "yes, buts." The Muslim community better find a spokesman who isn't a "yes, but" Muslim. They shouldn't even understand the word "but," because if they don't, when things heat up, the profiling will only get worse, and the razor wire will be coming.


Beck went on to say:

You want the profiling to stop? Then, here's an idea. Stop murdering innocent people. Stop excusing the people who do. You do that for a while, and I guarantee you won't have any more problems at the airports. Stop blowing stuff up and the world just might be your oyster. Otherwise, it's going to be like that movie, The Siege. You remember that movie? The Muslims will see the West through razor wire if things don't change.


He concluded:

Look, I'm not saying all Arabs and Muslims are anti-American. Far from it. We should get to know these people and embrace the good Muslims, and eliminate the bad ones. Here's what I don't know. I don't know if the Muslim community will ever step to the plate like the Japanese-American community did during World War II. You know, it was absolutely disgraceful how we rounded innocent people up then and, sadly, history has a way of repeating itself no matter how grotesque that history might be. The Muslim community can prevent this if they act now.


When Beck is talking about "razor wire," he's talking about concentration camps—in the original sense of the word, places where masses of people are imprisoned "just based on the way you look or just based on your religion." Despite his (perfectly accurate) observation that such camps are "Nazi, World War II wrong," comparable to the "absolutely disgraceful" wartime internment of Japanese-Americans, Beck is clearly using the threat of such camps to coerce Muslims into behavior he approves of, like volunteering "to shoot the bad Muslims in the head."

Since the overwhelming majority of U.S. Muslims are neither "murdering innocent people" nor "excusing the people who do," there's really nothing that they can do to avert Beck's threat that "the razor wire will be coming." And Beck is explicit that there's nothing non-Muslims can do to avoid locking Muslims up en masse.

The New York Times, in its profile about Beck, refers to his criticism of the animated film Happy Feet, but fails to mention that he uses his Headline News slot to issue threats that he himself compares to Nazi behavior. For the Times, CNN's decision to give Beck a TV show is a "success," because he "has increased the ratings in his 7 p.m. time period 60 percent among all viewers, and 84 percent among viewers aged 25 to 54."

The Times article quoted CNN executive Kenneth Jautz as saying that the network did not take Beck's politics into account when it hired him. "We did not set out to have anyone from any particular view fronting these shows," he said. In fact, CNN hired Beck knowing that the host's repertoire included hateful attacks--the Hurricane Katrina refugees seen on TV and the father of a terrorism victim were both "scumbags" (Mediamatters.org, 5/17/04, 9/9/05)--as well as a disturbing preoccupation with violence: Beck has told his listeners that he was praying for a gruesome death for Democratic presidential candidate Dennis Kucinich (3/16/03), and that he was fantasizing about strangling filmmaker Michael Moore to death (5/17/05). As FAIR predicted (FAIR Action Alert, 1/18/06), Beck has not changed his repellent tune simply because he's been hired by a major media outlet.

Contrary to Beck's suggestion, there are things that the people of the U.S. can do to avoid repeating the "grotesque" history of Japanese-American internment. One of these things is to take people seriously when they start threatening people with concentration camps—rather than looking the other way because of their ratings "success."

Ratings.

[Luq_Ganane]

I hate the bastar too death, but I have to admit he's 100% right on this one.


Ps, Grant views this telecast on a nightly basis, and then logs onto SNET and regergitates everything he's heard in the guise of "Political Analysis".

[shidow1]

Glen hates the somalis and what they stand for......somebody has to stop this guy.........

[#1baller]

Have to agree wit Glenn on this one. Somalis need to learn how to assimilate and abide by State and Federal laws just like everyone else. There are no special priviledges for somalis.

You either follow our laws or risk the consequences. Creating enclaves will not help gain any special priviledges.

[Phd in naago kudis]

the somali man had the right to rape that latino chick

it was his somali right to do so

[Ina Baxar]

He's kinda right !!

[DawladSade]

He is definitely right about the cultural melting pot but he is no smarty pants this Glenn. If he even took Psych 101 in college he would know the similarity between the 1968 case and this one and why in both instances large amount of people did not call the cops.

You see, it is about burden of responsibility. The less people there are, the more you are burdened to act and do something and the more people there are, the less you are burdened to be personally responsible to do something. In a sense, the more the responsibility is shared the less likelihood an individual feels inclined to call the police.

Like the 1968 case, in which a woman was repeatedly stabbed and died a slow death for hours in front of an apartment building with many people watching from their windows, these people in the apartment building subconsciously convinced themselves that there are many people around who will intervene and call the cops.

Several psychological tests were made to proof this theory chief of them the phone incident in a single buinding in which an individual suffers a heart attack and the likelihood of a single person on the line calling for help was determined as opposed to more than one person as part of the line.

P.s. Look how ugly that i.diot looks, trying to walk with a swagger and stick out his tongue and shit after he just raped a girl in a focking hallway and trying to deny it too when apartment video cameras filmed him. Disgusting as fock, the kinda of i.diots we do NOT want claiming the Somali name.

[Luq_Ganane]

^^

Definitely agree. The stupid idiot's prancing, and posing with his tounge out after he just did something makes you wanna just slap him. You can already tell he hasn't done anything since he's been in the US except watch rap city, while his mom is stratching to make a living. Bastard.

there was an article in GQ last month about Glen B, the focker is an alcaholic suffering from depression and on the brink of suicide. he has no credibility.
