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…

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.

Andrew and Michael, I had missed this–thank you. Hope he is not allowed in.

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.
