Rupert Murdoch tweet about jihadists causes anger on social media

[Violet_Crumble]

Rupert Murdoch has used Twitter to call on muslims to take responsiblity for radical jihadists.

The media mogul raised ire on Saturday with the tweet, adding his voice to the global discussion on terrorism that has dominated social media since the Charlie Hebdo shooting attack earlier this week.

Murdoch's tweet:

Rupert Murdoch ✔ @rupertmurdoch

Maybe most Moslems peaceful, but until they recognize and destroy their growing jihadist cancer they must be held responsible.

I really liked Adam Hills responses:

?@adamhillscomedy Oh good, Rupert Murdoch has waded into the Charlie Hebdo debate. I was wondering what an outdated, bigoted, sociopath might make of it all.

1. So...

...he wants ALL Muslims killed (held "responsible&quot ?

Isn't there a hospital where he and Pat Roberson can receive care for their dementia? They may end up hurting someone.

3. I have to say this...

Never thought I'd see this day. Muslim countries should take care of their own jihadis - but it's not because of lack of responsibility that they don't. The US needs to let them.

4. Words have meaning.

Muslim is a religion. "I am a Christian,i am a jew, I am a muslim."...its a religion

Islam is an ideology...practiced by muslims.

Islamist .....a supporter or advocate of Islamic fundamentalism including extremism

Islamophobia...irrational fear of islam....

Islamism....current meaning violent Islamic extremism

8. Yes, which is why someone else corrected you on the same thing yesterday...

Muslim is a person who is a member of the religion called Islam
Just like Jew is a person who is a member of the religion called Judaism
Just like Christian is a person who is a member of the religion called Christianity.

You and Rupert appear to be very, very confused on the difference between criticising a religion and scapegoating most if not all members of that religion.

5. Rupert wants to nudge all sides into endless war...

It's good for his entertainment nutworks and "NEWS"papers.

6. The same could be said about Christians

Why does he single out just one religion? Oh, yeah, because he's a bigoted asswipe.

7. Accountability

Murdoch and his empire need to be held accountable for the Iraq war, and the aftermath, but I won't hold my breathe because it will never happen.
