Epic:

A video has gone viral of a Lebanese television presenter who cut short an interview with a London-based Islamist scholar after he told her to “shut up”.



Rima Karaki, a TV host and university professor, told the scholar: “In this studio, I run the show.”

During the discussion about reports of Christians joining Islamic State (Isis), which aired on Al-Jadeed TV on 2 March, Sheikh Hani Al-Siba’i, an Egyptian scholar, told Karaki: “Are you done? Shut up so I can talk.”

The presenter responded by saying: “How can a respected sheikh like yourself tell a TV host to shut up?”

Siba’i then said: “It’s beneath me to be interviewed by you. You are a woman who ….” His microphone is then cut off.

Karaki stopped the interview after just three minutes, saying: “Just one second. Either there is mutual respect or the conversation is over.”

Though I wonder how long she remains alive after this ?

BTW, why the hell isn't Britain cracking down on these radicals? They should absolutely be banned from spreading their venom. In most other countries, extremist preachers regularly get their position revoked and sometimes even charged, but for some reason the Brits seem to be just fine ignoring them.

For the same reason they let a bunch of Pakistani men rape little girls for a decade, it might be seen as racist to call brown people out on their sh**t and the UK doesn't want to appear racist.  That's worse somehow.

Unlike some European states, Britain doesn't have a scheme for funneling tax dollars to anything but the state church.  There is no mechanism for revoking a government funded position because it isn't government funded.
