LA TIMES GIVES TRAITOR AZMI BISHARA AN OP-ED TO LIE ABOUT HIS TREASON

TAB's own LMC provided some snark viz. the LA Times earlier this morning. Appropriately, they've just finished handing over their op-ed page to a terrorist enabling traitor. This right here? This is us being shocked. And amazed:

I have certainly ruffled feathers in Israel. In addition to speaking out on the subjects above, I have also asserted the right of the Lebanese people, and of Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza Strip, to resist Israel's illegal military occupation. I do not see those who fight for freedom as my enemies... The Israeli authorities are trying to intimidate not just me but all Palestinian citizens (sic) of Israel.

Poll - Rank the following hypothetical scenarios in order of awesomeness:
(1) that the LA Times approached Bishara because they really wanted to be a propaganda bullhorn for terrorist enabling traitors
(2) that Bishara was thinking to himself "what major US paper is most likely to let me turn it into a terrorist bullhorn for my terrorist enabling treason" and the answer he came up with was the LA Times?

We don't know why they didn't just follow routine LAT practice and let Laura King write up this anti-Israel propaganda as a news report. She could even do that clever thing where journalists smuggle in their bias by quoting lunatics they agree with ("but some Palestinians say" - no one ever catches that). Maybe she missed her filing deadline because it took extra time to translate her article from the original Arabic on the pamphlet.
