Octavis Nasr, CNN Senior Editor for Arab Affairs (hat tip: SayAnything) - video:

Well, I think for one, terrorism for one person is a freedom fight for another. And you know, the Arab world always talks about this, as they say the so-called terrorism, because they believe that - in Iraq, for example, many people are struggling against occupation, so in many ways they support that struggle against occupation but then they draw a line between those who are struggling. They want a free Iraq, they want the occupiers out and those who are pushing the envelope and crossing the line by terrorizing people. And when we say terrorizing people, in a sense, it’s going after the innocent civilians, the unsuspecting civilians, taking hostages, beheading them. Committing acts that are totally unacceptable, even by the standards of a freedom fight. So, you know, if you think about it, “terrorism” is a subjective term depending on which side you are on.

So, kids, today we have learned from the MSM that:

1. Parody songs are outrageous if they mention self-defense against a terrorist ambush, but
2. Sometimes actually beheading innocent civilians isn’t all that bad depending on which side you’re on.

This begs the question, CNN…. which side are you on?
