VIDEO: BECK POINTS FINGER AT SAUDI PRINCE

I really don't know what to think of this. On one hand, It was refreshing to see Glenn Beck start to identify the Islamic enemies of the United States. On the other hand, I'm still trying to sift through the inconsistency. While illustrating the point that Israel has a right to be skittish when flotillas of thugs bent on destroying them get close, Beck compared the reason for Israel's blockade with the same thing that caused Rudy Giuliani to turn down a check from Saudi Prince Alwaleed bin Talal after 9/11.

It's an extremely fair point and a legitimate comparison. The only problem is that bin Talal is the second largest shareholder of the parent company of Fox News, which is who Beck works for. If Beck wants to use his platform to expose Talal, I guess that might be considered a greater good but if he doesn't, there might be a degree of perceived hypocrisy as Beck takes money from the same company that does business with the same Saudi prince he exposed as - at least mildly - someone who sanctioned 9/11.
