I fail to see how my post is incredibly biased.
I provided an outline of what happened. I don't think you can talk either, providing you wrote the following in this very thread:
Palestinians openly admit their goal is genocide. Stay biased.
Now that is what i call bias. Generalising a whole people.
They elected Hamas. It's part of Hamas' charter. Therefore it's what the Palestinians want, it's what they voted for. That's not bias, that's a fact.
Not all Palestinians elected Hamas though. Only those in Gaza...you can't generalise the majority for the actions of those in Gaza. That said, you can't even claim they all want genocide, simply because not all of them would have voted for Hamas. Even then, Hamas acts on its own free will, and not that of the Palestinian majority in Gaza.

If I state Jews threatened Germany with extermination that's why Hitler hated Jews. Its as ridiculous as yours because one side has stones and the other atomic weapons (shhhhhhh)
But forget the Palestinians, I am concerned Israeli Road Safety. Since 2001, Israel has lost 35 people since 2001 from Gaza rockets, and 2600from car accidents.
Now that something that does require a measure response. Bomb those roads.

As I was reading the above post, the thought occurred to me: why are you even watching the MSM?
Not meant as an attack or an insult...
I'm just curious as I myself have lost all interest in anything mainstream.
ATS is flooded with these types of threads and I often wonder why...

Actually it is. It's a yes or no. Then you can explain why. The issue really is that simple. The man did not want to answer because saying no is justifying their position and actions, which ethically and morally can never be done. Saying yes they are would destroy his ability to double talk every other issue. So he was left unable to answer for fear of upsetting one side.
In 1948 the Arabs should not have attacked. They did. Prior to that there were Jewish groups I might label terrorists, but they no longer exist. Their goal was to have a two-state solution, which was granted. The Arabs were not happy with it.
I have no problems saying their were Jewish terrorists groups. Why does he have a problem saying the same for Hamas?

Because as much as we see them as terrorist groups, others do not. The one's who don't see Israel as an oppresive regime which must be put back in it's place.

They keep electing Hamas. That means they act with the will of Gaza. Up until such time they are voted out.

Hamas was elected in 2006, but as far as i am aware, there have been no further elections since. There is meant to be an election held in all Palestinian territories within 5 months, due to the declaring of a unified government between Hamas and Fatah though.
Also, Hamas does seek the destruction if Israel, but their charter supports the coexistence of Jews, Christians and Muslims, so long as they recognise any Palestinian state as such.
Their goal then, isn't really the complete genocide of Jews, considering the fact that they would allow Jews to live under a Palestinian state.

But Israel was not a nation or about to become a nation back then.. In 1948, they were and did.

Just for the record………
en.wikipedia.org...
Israeli Terrorists dressed up as Arabs and killed 91 people…………..1946, My father was serving in the British forces then and was a Captain in charge of controlling (or trying to ) control the activities of the Israeli terrorists.
My father had alot of information and experiences from that time and he was deeply sympathetic with the Arabs and the arabian way of life……… He also served just at the end of WW2 and fought for your freedom and free speech today……. He was a measured and intelligent man but he was not particulary fond of the Israeli mentality and killing of British troops, especially as it was a difficult transition time for a people massacred by the Nazi's.
America's pressure and actions from 1947 to 1968 have ALOT to do with the mess we have nowadays.

How is your post not biased, seriously, pot meets kettle.
How is it biased? And while we are at it answer the question I asked and was ignored by everyone.
What was the question, what was the answer. Your post is incredibly biased.
Palestinians openly admit their goal is genocide. Stay biased.
If you are asking a question the you might want to throw a "?" into your sentences, because all I see with those 2 quotes is statements.
Wooaahhhh Grammar police. One of them does have a ? in it. Thanks. Since you were unable to determine what was being asked, I will ask again.
What was the question Hannity asked, what was the answer given?
If you are maskmy a question do it right, don't get up on your high horse for making a mistake in basic English.
We will never know the answer because the man was not allowed to finish.
What does maskmy a question mean? I am unfamiliar with that word.
OP said the man did answer, are you saying the OP is lying?
It means autocorrect on my phone Did you watch the video? Or did you even read the OP?
Hannity cut him off and eventually closed the programme (without allowing the Palestinian speaker talking time) simply because the Palestinian speaker didn't answer a question the way in which Hannity would have liked it answered.
The man didn't get to finish hence there is no answer. How you can look at that video and think Hannity showed an iota of balance is beyond me.
Oh, so you made a mistake in basic English. That's pretty terrible. What is maskmy that your phone autocorrects to it?
I can't watch the video. I read the OP which states ....
simply because the Palestinian speaker didn't answer a question the way in which Hannity would have liked it answered
So the OP claims it was answered and Hannity did not like the answer. So again, my question is what exactly was asked, what exactly was given as an answer?
Then what the hell are you doing commenting on something you haven't even watched? You are calling other people biased here without even seeing what happened.
You want to know what was said? Get a better computer/internet connection or whatever is stopping you, I am not a charity worker.
Ok, I listened. Hannity was a complete moronic turd as always, but the Palestinian guest rep. refused to answer questions. When asked if he thought Hamas were terrorists he skirted the question numerous times and absolutely refused to answer. Then after refusing to answer, while saying he would answer, he switches to saying he already answered. If he answered, why was he saying he would answer if allowed.
It's hard to figure out who was more annoying Brand or Hannity. I would be happy with them both gone.
Either way you flat out lied, the guy was given a chance to answer and refused to do so.

What a bunch of bull crap. I expect nothing less from the huffington post. But, Hannity was hardly yelling or "going on a wild screaming fit". If anything, you shouldn't be listening to the Huffington Post. Talk about a biased, full of crap source of information.
In my opinion, Hannity has a right to get frustrated considering the sheer idiocy of American support of Hamas, considering they continue to violate cease fires and refuse to stop ATTACKING ISRAEL ON THE OFFENSIVE. Anyway, you Hamas supporters have already heard all that, no use beating this dead horse. But, as to the thread, if anything, I wouldn't be flustered if Hannity got even louder or said anything more offensive than, "thick head". After all, Hannity asked the dude to answer his question numerous times and he kept eluding it. When you are invited on a debate show and the interviewer asks you a question, you're supposed to answer it. "Thick head" entirely fit the interviewees profile, and I wouldn't blame Hannity if he got more aggressive. Every American supporting Hamas is completely ignorant to how the world works. "Is Hamas a terrorist organization". Absolutely.
My advice to Hamas- quit firing rockets at Israel and you won't get any fired back at you. If you can't understand that, your head is shamefully thick.
