> Iqbal was imprisoned because he entered into a business relationship with Hezbollah, a terrorist organization, not because of the content of the broadcast. From the New York Times: You quote from the Times but leave out the next sentence: "Prosecutors have said Hezbollah operated Al Manar in Lebanon as a way to raise money and recruit volunteers for attacks." So his "business relationship with Hezbollah" is Hezbollah makes money off its channel in some manner. Under that criteria, every television channel in the US, every magazine, every newspaper could be banned according to your reasoning, yet you can contort this in some theoretical way so that it has nothing to do with the content. |
