The Democrats' war against the Jews
Rip, rip, rip. That's the sound of the anti-Semitic, hate-filled, back-stabbing Democrats ripping off their masks and baring their mendacious tongues. Their myth is shattered. No longer can they maintain the sham of being home to American Jews and a faithful friend to Israel.
Sure, not all Democrats. But the power structure of the United States Democratic Party is now dominated by supporters of BDS, anti-Israel fallacious meme–throwers, and kindlers of a civil war among American Jewish partisans.
It didn't happen overnight. But while Republican Jews and Evangelicals and others were proudly and loudly supporting Jews and Israel, their warnings went unheeded. A harbinger of future president Barack Hussein Obama's orientation was his virtue-signaling in his book, The Audacity of Hope, published in 2006. In it, Obama wrote the infamous sentence about ugly things happening in America, such as Japanese internment camps, and that he would stand with Muslims should the winds of change again occur in America. The sentence was gratuitous. Five years after 9/11, heinously perpetrated by Muslims in the name of Allah, no untoward U.S. governmental action had been implemented against them.
Obama was sworn in as the 44th U.S. president in January 2009. Barely six months later, he flashed his anti-Israel teeth in his infamous speech, "A New Beginning," given in June 2009 at the University of Cairo in Egypt. In it, he called Israeli settlements "illegitimate" and called for a two-state solution. Moreover, he was determined to strengthen ties with the Muslim world, negotiate with Iran, and apologize for past American ills.
These anti-Israel proclamations were followed by his humiliating posture toward Israeli president Bibi Netanyahu and his infamous deal with Iran. Obama's antipathy was echoed by a fierce diatribe from Hillary Clinton; Joe Biden being notoriously late for a meeting in Israel with Bibi; and John Kerry's anti-Israel, pro-Palestinian stance.
While Obama's animus seemed focused on Israel and its policies, his successors have no such restraints. Democrat freshman congresswoman Ilhan Omar has proclaimed, "It's all about the Benjamins" and that the Israeli lobby controls D.C. Rashida Tlaib, another Democrat freshman congresswoman, was sworn into Congress wearing Palestinian garb. Her definition of a one-state solution is one Palestinian state. Israel is named Palestine on the map that hangs in her office.
She has earned the distinction of hating Israel more than loving her grandmother when, after she and Omar were banned from entering Israel, she declined to accept the special entry she was granted to visit her grandmother living in the West Bank. Both she and Omar are vocal supporters of BDS and are joined in this support by two other Democrat freshman congresswomen: the superstar Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Ayanna Soyini Pressley. The four are benignly referred to as "the Squad," but this quartet is not a jejune cheerleading team. Rather, they are anti-Semitic bomb-throwers who have rendered the vast majority of their party powerless.
Omar has not been stripped of her seat on the Foreign Relations Committee, nor has any member of the Squad been significantly publicly rebuked since the first cries for apology were issued last February. Instead, House speaker and veteran politician Nancy Pelosi recently accompanied Omar to Ghana. Also, the House Democrats have been critical of Netanyahu's barring of Omar's and Tlaib's entry into Israel. One wonders where they would draw the line.
The majority of Americans do not accept the Squad's virulent anti-Semitism. But their hatred is now out there. It encourages and gives cover to their followers, enables other anti-Semites to discard their inhibitions, and softens the public to the hate. Unfortunately, their anti-Semitic platform has not only more sharply divided Jews, but has destroyed bipartisan support for Israel. Forced to decide between Israel and the Democratic Party, most have chosen the party.
On the flip side, the Republican Party is ardently pro-Israel and pro-Jewish. Similarity, pro-Jewish, pro-Israel, pro-Republican organizations are burgeoning. The Republican Jewish Coalition (RJC) in less than 20 years has grown from a few hundred members to over 50,000. A relatively new group, Jexit (Jews exiting the Democrat Party), is exploding. In fact, Jexit is proving so successful that Candace Owens, and other African-American leaders, are attempting to form a coalition between Jexit and Blexit. Another recently formed group, Jews Choose Trump, boasts many ex-Democrat members.
The anti-Jew streets have been paved for millennia. Can they be barricaded in America?
Snap. Zip. Click. The sounds of checkbooks, billfolds, wallets, handbags, and electronic devices closing to stop donations to Democrat candidates and the Democratic National Committee.

Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan addressed a gathering in Detroit
on Sunday to mark the 23rd anniversary of the Million Man March, and used it as
a platform to launch yet another attack on Jews, calling them “termites.”
Farrakhan
posted clips of his speech to his Twitter account on Tuesday.
I'm not an anti-Semite. I’m anti-Termite.
“To the members of the Jewish
community that don’t like me, thank you very much for putting my name all over
the planet … I’m not mad at you, ’cause you’re so stupid,” Farrakhan said.
“So when they talk about Farrakhan,
call me a hater, you know they do, call me an antisemite — stop it! I’m
anti-termite! I don’t know nothing about hating somebody because of their
religious preference.”
Farrahkan also spoke out against
Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh:
When I saw Ms. Christine Blasey Ford give her testimony,
tears came in my eyes because no man should take from a woman what a woman does
not want to give.
New York Assemblyman Dov Hikind
(D-Brooklyn) urged fellow Democrats to condemn Farrakhan’s statements about
Jews.
“Farrakhan’s vile statements against
Whites and Jews have been ignored by my fellow Democrats,” Hikind said in a
press release Wednesday. “There is nothing subtle about this modern-day
Goebbels’ hatred. This racist doesn’t even hide behind an anti-Israel
statement; he just publicly attacks Jews and the Jewish religion, and works to
incite hatred and racism among his followers. Even worse, Democrats continue to
give him a pass. Former President Bill Clinton sat next to him at Aretha
Franklin’s funeral. It was appalling!”
Earlier this year, photographs of
Farrakhan meeting with then-Sen. Barack Obama (D-IL) and the Congressional
Black Caucus in 2005 were released (see above) after being suppressed to prevent any damage

THE 9-11 INVADING MUSLIM SAUDIS ARE
MAJOR DONORS TO THE BUSH, CLINTON AND OBAMA PRESIDENTIAL LIBRARIES AND THE
PHONY CLINTON CHARITY FOUNDATION SLUSH FUND.
Robert Spencer: A Paul Revere of Our Times
Robert Spencer’s new book The
History of Jihad from Muhammad to ISIS is a clarion call to
Western Civilization. We are under assault by Islam from all sides in a
war that has raged since 632, the date of Muhammad’s death. In trying to
raise the alarm, Spencer is clearly one of the Paul Reveres of our time.
But who is willing to listen?
Spencer’s opening observation sums up his book.
“There is no period since the beginning of Islam that was
characterized by peaceful co-existence between Muslims and non-Muslims .
. . There has always been, with virtually no interruption,
jihad. Nor is jihad in Islamic theology primarily, or even prominently
anything but warfare against non-believers.”
The rest of Spencer’s well researched and thoroughly documented
book are the details, fascinating, convincing and frightening details that more
that substantiate his case.
Of the Greek Orthodox faith, Spencer has spent decades
researching, studying and observing the elements that fill this important book
with records of events and, most damagingly, direct quotes from Qur’an, which
“contain numerous exhortations to fight against the infidels, as do all
the hadith collections
of Muhammad’s words and deeds.” More specifically, the scriptures command
Muslims to “fight those who do not believe in Allah.” The historical record is
chilling. But Spencer’s most damaging and convincing argument is letting
the Muslims speak for themselves including the prophet Muhammad who bragged, “I
have been victorious with terror.”
The book sweeps the reader through Muhammad’s own bloody conquests
against Jews and other infidels, and then on through centuries of jihad, mass
bloodshed from Spain to India, the Barbary Wars, the Ottoman Empire, and on
into modern day global terrorism. There is no accurate body count, but it’s
certainly a staggering number.
His most alarming material is in the closing chapter “The West loses the Will to
Live.” The well-documented, ongoing jihad against Israel
is more than enough for a book of its own. The fall of the Shah of Iran
triggered the globalization of modern jihad terrorism. Spencer details
the rise of Al Qaeda and Osama bin Laden along with the 9/11 attacks that were,
not so shockingly, organized and funded by senior people in both Saudi Arabia
and Iran. Even worse were attempts by the Bush administration and the
Obama administration to cover this up. One can see the hand of Obama’s
CIA director John Brennan in a good deal of this. Who can forget Obama’s
2009 trip to Cairo where he “acknowledged civilization’s debt to Islam.” Somehow he managed not to mention the
slaughter of millions over the centuries in the name of Allah.
The Obama-supported Muslim Brotherhood, which has been labeled by
some as a terrorist group, and its offshoot CAIR, remain highly active in
weakening America’s resolve to resist the encroachment of Islam. In February 2012, for instance, the Obama administration, led by
John Brennan, purged thousands of documents about the threat of Jihad from FBI
and other government training manuals, because they were allegedly “biased,
false and highly offensive to Muslim groups.”
In other words, Spencer points out, “American was going to war
against jihadists while forbidding itself to understand jihad.” Brennan,
in fact, “was instrumental in the Obama administration’s recasting of the
defense against terror as a localized struggle against al-Qaeda.“ This
was after Spencer had led seminars on Islam and jihad for the FBI, the United
States Central Command, United States Army Command and General Staff College,
the Joint Terrorism Task Force, the Justice Department’s Terrorism Advisory
Council and the US intelligence community.
Meanwhile, the flood of Muslim immigrants into the West has
accelerated. Spencer concludes that, “The failure of today’s leadership
and the international media to inform the public about what is really going on
(is) an abdication of responsibility unparalleled in history.” Spencer believes
the leaders of Europe have “brought almost certain doom on their countries.”
Reading daily dispatches, particularly from the UK and France, it is difficult
to disagree.
Spencer is not a lone voice. In his daily electronic ride
across America warning of the increasing Islamic threat, he has active allies
in Pamela Geller, David Horowitz, Brigitte Gabriel, Jamie Glazov, Raymond
Ibrahim and Glen Roberts who have not been
afraid to identify the ideological monster that threatens to destroy our
Constitution and our way of life. Roberts’ website, the Religion of Peace keeps daily track of jihadist attacks on a global basis:
33,943 since 9/11. Islamic extremism and efforts to combat it were
responsible for 84,000 deaths in 2017, according to a report from an organization founded by former U.K. Prime Minister
Tony Blair.. The data found that there were 7,841 attacks in 48 countries
in 2017, at least 47 Islamic extremist groups deliberately "orchestrated
fatal campaigns against civilians." Those attacks, the report says, were
"designed to instill fear and erode public morale."
The real question is how to destroy the Islamic
destroyers. Amil
Imani, writing for Pamela Geller’s website, offers an action
specific list that includes holding to account politicians who sell themselves
to Islamic advocacy groups, staying informed and finding ways to actively wean
ordinary Muslims away from their religion of destruction, intolerance,
backwardness and death. Muslims need to be openly challenged ideologically.
Do they accept Sharia
law (female genital mutilation, the right of a man to beat one’s
wife, total subjugation of wives by their husbands, death for unmarried
fornication and adultery, death to gays, death to critics of Islam, death for
apostates) over America’s Constitutional law? Is reform of Islam even a
theoretical possibility?
“Western civilization is in a war. We should frankly test
every person here who is of a Muslim background, and if they believe in Sharia,
they should be deported. Sharia is incompatible with Western
civilization. Modern Muslims who have given up Sharia— I am glad to have
them as citizens. Perfectly happy to have them next door.”
On a personal note, I spent two exciting years in Beirut as chief
of Middle East Services for the Associated Press. I had many Arab,
Armenian and Palestinian friends and employees. Many of them were
wonderful, lovely people who were fun to socialize and spend time with.
But this was before Jimmy Carter cut the floor out from under the Shah, paving
the way for the Ayatollah Khomeini to return from Paris to Tehran to assume
leadership of the country. My friends were what I would call cultural or
secular Muslims. They were not devout and did not pray five times a
day. As far as I knew they were good people. So it’s important to
separate good human beings from radical Islam wherever we can.
In his 2002 “Letter to the American people,” bin Laden wrote that
war against the United States will end
“...only with the submission of the United States to the warriors
of jihad. The first thing we are calling you to is Islam . .
. killing you and fighting you and terrorizing you, responding to your
attacks, all are considered to be the great legitimate duty in our
religion. These actions are offerings to God.”
Will any Imam or devout Muslim challenge this or renounce it?
“The historical record speaks for itself,” says Spencer, “even
more loudly and clearly than it usually does. It is my hope that readers
with an open mind and a willingness to consider unwelcome facts…will see this
record for what it is and ponder carefully its implications for the future of
free societies around the world.” In other words, Islam is coming, by
land, sea and air. The warnings are all there. It’s time to recognize
what is happening and bring it to a halt.

think I would waste my time if I did not think it was important for you to know
Satan? My job is to pull the cover off of Satan so that he will never deceive
you and the people of the world again,” Farrakhan said in 2011.

Bill Clinton Sits on Stage with Louis Farrakhan
at Aretha Franklin's Memorial Service
Perhaps Slick Willy was too enamored by
Ariana Grande's rendition of
"Natural Woman" by the late
Aretha Franklin to notice that he was sitting on
stage with the infamous, Anti-semite and
hate-monger, Louis
believe. What a pervert. Whatever the case, the 42nd
president of the United
States, Bill Clinton, gleefully shared
floor space with arguably one of the most
divisive and bigoted American figures in
recent memory at yesterday's
memorial service to the Queen of
Soul.
President Bill Clinton,
Rev. Al Sharpton, Rev. Jesse Jackson, and Min. Farrakhan were all given special
seats in the front row at Aretha Franklin's funeral service. Franklin passed
away on August 16th from pancreatic cancer. As noted by the Washington Examiner, "Franklin
was awarded the National Medal of the Arts and Humanities by Clinton in 1999.
She sang at Clinton’s inauguration in 1993, in addition to the White House
Correspondents' Association dinner in 1999." The two had mutual respect
and admiration for each other.
Since at least the
early 70s, Franklin and Farrakahn have had some sort of friendship. Farrakhan,
who became the leader of the Nation of Islam in 1977, wrote after her death
that,"‘In 1972 when I was a minister in New York City, Temple No 7, the
police attacked our mosque. Within a few hours, Aretha Franklin came to the
mosque, to my office, and said that she saw the news and came as quickly as she
could to stand with us and offer us her support.'"
Farrakhan is notorious
for making hateful comments against Jewish people, white people, and virtually
anybody not black. As noted by the Daily Caller, Farrkahn said in
2011, "Some of you think that I’m just somebody who’s got something out
for the Jewish people. You’re stupid. Do you think I would waste my time if I
did not think it was important for you to know Satan? My job is to pull the
cover off of Satan so that he will never deceive you and the people of the
world again."
And in, February of 2018 Farrakhan said,
"White folks are going down. And Satan is going down. And Farrakhan, by
God's grace, has pulled the cover off of that Satanic Jew and I'm here to say
your time is up, your world is through," while at a speech in he gave in
Chicago.
There are countless
other examples of his derogatory speech from across the decades. Farrakhan's
hateful remarks are so universally disavowed, the Nation of Islam was even
designated as a hate group by the left-wing Southern Poverty Law Center.
So, where's the outrage
from the left against Bill Clinton for sitting on stage with this man? Keep in
mind this funeral occurred just days after Ivanka Trump was lambasted by media outlets for posing with a photo
with Jimmy Garlow, an evangelical pastor who is against gay marriage and said
that, "if I were Satan, if I were the devil, I’d want to destroy the
imagery of male and female coming together with the light and joy, covenantal
marriage on earth.” Surely, some will argue that President Clinton was simply
honoring the respects of the deceased Aretha Franklin and was sitting there
because she requested him alongside Farrakhan, but it's fairly obvious that if
a conservative or a republican had taken the stage with such a divisive and
hateful figure that they would not have been given the benefit of the doubt by
the left.
WHAT DID BARACK OBAMA DO FOR BLACK AMERICAN DURING THE 8 YEARS HE WAS SABOTAGING HOMELAND SECURITY FOR MORE MEXICANS?
Calls for respect
for black America at Franklin funeral
DETROIT (AP) — As Aretha Franklin
was remembered at her funeral Friday as a proud black woman who also used her
magnificent voice to stand up for the black community she loved, several
speakers used the moment to continue to demand respect for black America.
Amid the gospel, personal
reflections and grief were calls to register and turnout to vote in November
and condemnation of President Donald Trump, who, upon her death, referred to
Franklin as “someone who worked for me” — a comment that rankled many
African-Americans.
“No — she used to perform for
you,” the Rev. Al Sharpton said to cheers and applause from the crowd. “She worked
for us. Aretha never took orders from nobody but God.”
Franklin’s civil rights legacy was
mentioned often during the eight-hour service, and was tied to her faith and
roots in the black church. Many also mentioned her father, the Rev. C.L.
Franklin, and his civil rights leadership, which influenced his daughter from a
young age.
Late Friday, Franklin was laid to
rest in a mausoleum at Woodlawn Cemetery, the final resting place of her
father.
None of the politicians present —
including former President Bill Clinton and former Attorney General Eric Holder
— took the opportunity to turn the event partisan. Michigan Democratic House
Rep. Brenda Lawrence took a moment to recognize Arizona Republican Sen. John
McCain, whose funeral is Saturday.
But others seized on Trump’s
comments and Franklin’s message of dignity to speak to the present social and
political climate. In pointing out the long lines to pay tribute to Franklin
this week, the Rev. Jesse Jackson lamented that the lines to vote often aren’t
nearly as long.
BLOG: FRANKLIN'S ONLY "BATTLEGROUND" WAS THE TABLE SHE
SAT AT! SHE DID NOTHING FOR BLACK AMERICAN OR ANYONE ELSE!
“Aretha was on the battleground
for 60 years,” Jackson told the audience. “We have long lines to celebrate
death, and short lines for voting. Something is missing. If you leave here
today and don’t register to vote, you’re dishonoring Aretha.”
Judge Greg Mathis, one of
Franklin’s many friends who often talked politics with her, said that his last
conversation with Franklin earlier this summer was about the ongoing water
crisis in Flint, Michigan, where government negligence has left residents
living with lead-tainted water since 2014.
“Her last words to me … were “‘Go
back up there and sock it to ’em!,'” Mathis told the crowd before vowing that
he would in her memory.
Some made a statement without
saying a word. When she was shouted out from the stage, California Democrat
Rep. Maxine Waters — who has called frequently for Trump’s impeachment and is a
campaign rally punching bag for the president — acknowledged the crowd with the
“Wakanda salute,” from the movie “Black Panther,” closing her fists and
crossing her arms over her chest to applause.
Many in the audience, including
President Clinton, stood and cheered.
“Everybody just point over there
and tell her, ‘We got your back!'” said Bishop Charles H. Ellis III, pastor of
Greater Grace Temple, which the audience shouted in Waters’ direction.
Georgetown University sociologist
Michael Eric Dyson took several shots at Trump in his remarks, assigning the
president several nicknames: “orange apparition,” ”lugubrious leech,”
”doppleganger of deceit and deceit,” ”lethal liar,” ”dimwitted dictator,”
”foolish facist.”
“She ain’t work for you,” Dyson
shouted over applause. “She worked above you. She worked beyond you. Get your
preposition right.”
Jewish
Leaders Slam Anti-Semite Louis Farrakhan’s Place of Honor at Aretha Franklin’s
Funeral
TEL AVIV – American Jewish
leaders expressed outrage over the place of honor given to virulently
antisemitic Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan at Aretha Franklin’s funeral
on Friday.
Farrakhan was seated in the front
row alongside other controversial African-American figures, Al Sharpton and
Jesse Jackson. Former president Bill Clinton sat three places to Farrakhan’s
left.
Jonathan Greenblatt, CEO of the Anti-Defamation
League, said it was “jarring” to see a “hatemonger” like Farrakhan at the
funeral.
“It was absolutely jarring to see
one of America’s leading purveyors of antisemitism given a place of such
prominence at Aretha’s funeral,” Greenblatt told the Algemeiner. “We join the country in mourning the Queen of Soul, but
this was an honor that an unapologetic hatemonger like Farrakhan didn’t
deserve.”
Abraham Cooper of the Simon
Wiesenthal Center charged Farrakhan with despising America and Jews.
“Like millions of other Americans
who grew up listening to Aretha Franklin’s amazing voice, I was saddened by her
passing. Putting Louis Farrakhan in a seat of honor in the first row on stage,
near President Clinton and amidst a generation of African-American political
and religious leaders was equally saddening,” Cooper said in a statement
to the Algemeiner.
“50 years ago Aretha Franklin
received an award from Martin Luther King Jr. and toured the country to raise
money for the struggling Civil Rights Movement,” he added. “For decades
Farrakhan has stood against everything MLK lived and died for. He hates America
and hates Jews. Aretha Franklin wasn’t a hater. The sight of his smiling face
on stage soured the heartfelt music and words during the marathon tribute to a
great icon.”
Betty Ehrenberg , executive
director of the World Jewish Congress North America, lamented Farrakhan’s
status as a role model for activists and candidates for office.
“We were dismayed to learn that
Farrakhan was seated in a prominent place at the funeral of a widely revered
artist,” she said. “And it is equally dismaying to see him being admired by
some newly emerging activists and candidates for office who should not
associate with an unapologetic antisemite with a long history of racist views.”
As Breitbart
Jerusalem reported in March, Rep.
Danny Davis, an Illinois Democrat, praised Farrakhan as an “outstanding human
being.”
The three leaders of the Women’s
March, Tamika Mallory, Carmen Perez and Linda Sarsour have also aligned
themselves with Farrakhan.
Abraham Foxman, head of the Center
for the Study of Anti-Semitism at New York’s Museum of Jewish Heritage, told
the Algemeiner, “Sadly the African-American
community has a blind spot when it comes to antisemitism. They have always
given a pass to Louis Farrakhan’s racism and antisemitism. They don’t recognize
him as a racist and antisemite, and that’s sad for the relationship between our
two communities.”
Renowned law professor Alan
Dershowitz expressed his dismay that Clinton appeared alongside Farrakhan.
“I know there was a relationship
30 years earlier between Louis Farrakhan and Aretha Franklin. I don’t know if
that relationship continued, or whether the family invited him, but I think any
president should have said, ‘No. If you want me on the stage, you can’t have a
bigot like Farrakhan sitting next to me,’” he told Fox & Friends.
“You just can’t mainstream and
allow legitimacy to a man who has expressed the kind of hateful views he’s
expressed of Jews, of white people, of gays,” he added.
Democratic New York State
Assemblyman Dov Hikind called the incident “shocking.”
“Louis Farrakhan, front and
center, treated like royalty? What is this obsession with America’s Black
Hitler? In spite of his crude, vicious comments about Jews, whites, gays, he is
placed up front with President Clinton? Shocking!”
Earlier this year, Farrakhan
delivered a rancorous anti-Semitic rant at the 2018 Saviour’s Day event in
Chicago, calling Jews members of the “Synagogue of Satan” and claiming that
Jesus called the Jews “the children of the devil” and “when you want something
in this world, the Jew holds the door.”
“Jews were responsible for all of
this filth and degenerate behavior that Hollywood is putting out turning men
into women and women into men. And Farrakhan, by God’s grace, has pulled the
cover off of that Satanic Jew and I’m here to say your time is up, your world
is through,” the Nation of Islam leader said.
After Franklin died last month,
Farrakhan released a statement saying, “In 1972, when I was minister in New
York City, Temple No. 7, the police attacked our mosque. Within a few hours,
Aretha Franklin came to the mosque, to my office, and said that she saw the
news and came as quickly as she could to stand with us and offer us her
support.”
“We marveled at her show of
courage, fearlessness which was rooted in her profound love for her people and
her desire for justice for us,” Farrakhan added.
ERIC HOLDER TOOK PHOTO WITH ANTI-SEMITE LOUIS
FARRAKHAN AT ARETHA FRANKLIN’S FUNERAL
7:57 AM 09/04/2018
Peter Hasson | Reporter
- former Attorney General Eric Holder
stood for a photo with Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan.
- Farrakhan is a notorious racist and
anti-Semite and has ties to several prominent Democrats.
- A spokesman for Holder said the
photo didn’t constitute an endorsement but would not say whether Holder is
willing to condemn Farrakhan’s bigotry.
Former Attorney General Eric Holder on Friday posed with Nation
of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan in a photo that went largely unnoticed over the
holiday weekend.
Farrakhan is a notorious racist
and anti-Semite who has praised Hitler as a “very great
man,” claimed that interracial marriage “mongrelized” the black race and
repeatedly espoused conspiracy theories about “satanic” Jews.
The Nation of Islam published
a photo on Twitter that shows Holder standing next to
Farrakhan at Aretha Franklin’s funeral on Friday.
Photo: screenshot
The legendary singer’s
funeral prominently featured Farrakhan alongside former President Bill Clinton and
MSNBC host Rev. Al Sharpton.
Holder now leads the National
Democratic Redistricting Committee (NDRC) and is reportedly weighing running
for president in 2020.
“When asked, Mr. Holder participated
in a photo taken with the people on stage at the Aretha Franklin
services. It was in no way an endorsement or expression of support for
anyone,” NDRC spokesman Patrick Rodenbush told The Daily Caller News
Foundation in an email.
Rodenbush did not answer whether
Holder is willing to condemn Farrakhan’s anti-Semitism.
Farrakhan’s ties to the Democratic
Party have become a source of controversy after a photo emerged showing then-Illinois Sen. Barack Obama
standing with Farrakhan in 2008. (RELATED: Maxine Waters Attended Nation Of Islam
Convention Where Farrakhan Defended Suicide Bombers)
The photographer who took the photo
worked for a Nation of Islam publication and withheld the photo until after
Obama left office to avoid hurting his political career.
Following the publication of the
Obama-Farrakhan photo, other prominent Democrats including Reps. James Clyburn of South Carolina and Maxine Waters of California were revealed to have attended
events with Farrakhan and have since declined to denounce him.
Clyburn has said he is willing to
consider running for Speaker of the House if Democrats retake the lower chamber
in November’s midterm elections.
Illinois Rep. Danny Davis described Farrakhan in February as an “outstanding human being” and admitted
the two had a personal relationship.
After Davis’s office falsely told the
Anti-Defamation League that the congressman had been misquoted, he doubled down on his relationship with Farrakhan in a
March interview with this reporter.
Minnesota Rep. Keith Ellison repeatedly attended meetings with Farrakhan during his time in Congress,
despite claiming that he had cut ties with the anti-Semite decades earlier.
Despite misleading the public about his Farrakhan ties, Ellison has remained
the deputy chair of the Democratic National Committee (DNC) and last month won
the Democratic nomination for Minnesota attorney general.
The leaders of Women’s March, a
popular progressive activist group, similarly sparked controversy by declaring
their support for Farrakhan. (RELATED: Women’s March Leader Calls For Starbucks
Boycott Over Partnership With Jewish Group)
The group’s cofounder, Tamika Mallory,
attended a Nation of Islam convention where Farrakhan espoused anti-Semitic
conspiracy theories. Mallory later defended Farrakhan and repeatedly refused to
condemn him.
HERE'S EX
AG ERIC HOLDER POSING WITH THE HITLER PRAISING LEADER
OF A RACIST HATE GROUP
Attorney General Eric Holder's tenure was a low point even within
the disgraceful scandal-ridden Obama years.
Holder protected a black nationalist racist hate
group engaging in voter intimidation, appeared at a Sharpton event, used
the DOJ to aid hate groups and race rioters, and to intimidate local
governments and individuals critical of his boss.
So this isn't a surprise. It's a confirmation.
And, like Obama's Farrakhan photo, it should be brought up every
time we get another media lecture about the evils of racism.
Obama and his cohort were in bad with black nationalist racists.
The left is still chock full of Farrakhan fans, from Linda Sarsour and Tamika
Mallory at the Women's March, to a DSA endorsed candidate, to Keith
Ellison, the second in command at the DNC.
The left is racist. That's why it's right there with Farrakhan.
The Democratic earthquake
I don't know if you've felt
them, but we've had many warnings of a major catastrophic human-made earthquake
that threatens the foundations of our 242-year-old existence as a free
nation. The needle on the political Richter scale started shaking
after the 2000 election of George W. Bush. The rumblings began with
the Democrats contesting the 527-vote Florida game-changing presidential win by
Bush over Gore that eventually was confirmed by a
recount. Thereafter, Bush was for his eight more years in the White
House referred to and treated by the left as America's first sitting
"non-president."
Then we suffered the
rattling election of Barack Obama, whose active membership in a
white-, Jewish-, and America-hating church was well known to the
electorate. His close personal relationship with the likes
of his adored Rev. Jeremiah Wright and Louis Farrakhan was
no secret. Obama was open about his goals. He
told
us he was out to "fundamentally transform America" and the world. He did, with racial unrest, blacks against whites, attacks against law enforcement, hatred against people of wealth, the
cover-up of Muslim hate crimes, the admission of millions of illegals, the deliberate condemnations of our nation's history, the "Arab Spring" that turned the Middle East into a raging inferno of destruction and death, the support to the terrorist nation of Iran, and the eight-year unsuccessful effort to undermine the Jewish State of Israel. Worrisome tremblings, indeed.

Worrisome tremblings, indeed.
Recently, the threats have
increased in volume and intensity with the election of Donald Trump in
2016. The grinding Democrat tectonic plates beneath our (small
"d") democracy have sent rumbling tremors that indicate a major
catastrophe to our nation on the horizon. The forces of hate against
our president have reached catastrophic levels on the political seismic
scale that threaten to take down the pillars of liberty and freedom. The
fraudulently concocted charges of treason and collusion with an enemy nation
against Trump have shaken the nation's stability. Calls for his
impeachment, his assassination, and physical attacks against his staff and
supporters have rattled us all. And our Democratic elected
leaders are feeding this frenzy. The recent live broadcasts of the
funerals of Aretha Franklin and John McCain coming so close together should
have knocked us off our feet, with the eulogists standing over caskets,
attacking our legally elected president. The shock of having three
open haters of whites, Jews, and America in the first row at the Franklin
services seated purposely and openly right next to a former president should
have rocked our senses. But it didn't...and that's scary.
Lastly, perhaps the most
significant recent shudders came in the current Senate hearings for the
appointment of a new Supreme Court justice. The well-planned
observer tantrums requiring the ejection of violent demonstrators for the whole
world to see, along with the coordinated Democratic disruption from the
official seats, represented a massive threat to our liberties.
We have no control of
nature. Earthquakes, volcanoes, storms, and tsunamis are generated
by Earth's forces. But the undermining rattling of our halls of
justice, our Constitution, and our liberties for which so many have sacrificed
their lives is occurring because we are permitting it to happen. The
willful closing of our eyes to the earth-shaking warning signals of calamity,
growing not only in frequency but in intensity, will result in irreparable
cracks in the foundations of our liberties and freedom. The next
shock may be coming soon.
OBAMA pOSED WITH FARRAKHAN, ACCUSES REPUBLICANS OF "RACIAL NATIONALISM"
September
9, 2018
See if you can spot the Republican racial nationalism in these
pictures.
In his Trump-bashing speech, Barack Hussein Obama accused
Republicans of an "appeal to racial nationalism that’s barely
veiled". I don't see a whole lot of veils up there.
Bring
Back Shame
Now that the eulogy – I mean
grotesque political self-aggrandizing McCainAretha Franlin funeral
service – is over, featuring some of the most egotistical, self-serving, and
corrupt individuals, Candace Owens succinctly states that "[t]his new trend of using
funerals and eulogies to deliver political messages is really quite
disgusting. Everyone involved should be ashamed[.]"
Consider how America has
lost an awareness of the value of shame. As defined, shame is a "painful feeling of humiliation or distress
caused by the consciousness of wrong or foolish behavior."
James B. Twitchell in his
1997 book For
Shame: The Loss of Common Decency in American Culture asserts
that "we are living in shameless times," as compared to when he was
growing up in the 1950s, when "public drunkenness, filing for
bankruptcy ... drug addiction, hitting a woman, looting stores,
using vulgar language in public, being on the public dole [and] getting a
divorce" were considered shameful, and "most of these reflected
concerns about limiting individual behavior within a group."
What once was considered a
private matter now results in haphazard public defecations. San
Francisco currently boasts a "poop map" as the city reports a 140%
rise in feces. Taboos that used to entail modesty have disappeared.
Instead, according to
Twitchell, shame has been "redirected to trivial concerns," and
Americans have lost their "receptiveness to
shame." Promoting unwed teenage mothers and not hectoring their
"reprobate companions" barely raise eyebrows. Twitchell
asks, "Why do we not excoriate the unwed teenage
mother?" Instead, we are privy to a television show
titled Teen Mom.
When Hollywood folk have
children out of wedlock, they are praised, but "all hell would break
loose" if someone were caught wearing mink or baby seal. Our
priorities have been turned inside-out.
In the Jewish Press of July
20, 2018, author John Rosemond explains how psychologists have long accepted
the idea that a child's bad behavior is nothing more than a symptom of some
emotional tension and that punishment would only make matters
worse. Thus, by "pseudo-intellectual alchemy, a misbehaving
child was transformed from a perpetrator into a victim deserving, not
discipline, but great understanding and sympathy." Such beliefs
"absolved ill-behaved children of responsibility for their various
anti-social outbursts[.]" Shame is not an obstacle to
self-esteem, as many would assert; instead, "shamelessness becomes a
cultural toxin."
Daniel Patrick Moynihan coined the term "Defining Deviancy Down" to
describe how we legitimize
behavior previously regarded as
antisocial or criminal." When dysfunctional becomes the norm,
the functional turns abnormal. Consequently, there is nothing
unseemly about a so-called comedian holding up the decapitated head of a
president, and there is nothing improper about inviting someone to a dinner
only to bash her publicly and expect her to sit and smile. Obama created a scenario where minority students would be held
less accountable concerning school disruptions, therefore delinquency and
school violence increased.
In just the first year after
Obama in January 2014 issued his new discipline guidelines – which came with
threats of federal investigations and defunding – schools saw more than 160,000
'physical attacks' on teachers across the country.
Pointing this out results in
being called a racist. The R-word is used so frequently that it has
lost its actual meaning.
In order to distract from
behavior that hurts the community, language is constantly corrupted with such
"psychobabble as 'codependency'" and "edubabble as 'invitational
education,'" resulting in the destruction of any real meaning in language.
In Moynihan's Summer 1993
article in The Public Interest, titled "Toward a New Intolerance," he
emphasizes that "most importantly, and absolutely essential is the decline
of family." Thus, in 1943, the illegitimacy rate in new York
City was three percent. In 1992, it was 45 percent. Two
thousand ten statistics indicate
the following:
Racial
or ethnic group
|
Percent
of births considered "non-marital"
|
Asian Americans and
Pacific Islanders
|
17 percent
|
Non-Hispanic whites
|
29 percent
|
Hispanics
|
53 percent
|
American Indian and Native
Alaskans
|
66 percent
|
Non-Hispanic blacks
|
73 percent
|
Moynihan cites
correspondence he had with Justice Edwin Torres, who had been raised in the
barrio on 108th Street in New York City. Torres emphasizes that
"a society that loses its sense of outrage is doomed to extinction."
Yet, broad scale social regression
appears to have taken center stage in this country.
Shelby Steele points out
in Shame: How
America's Past Sins have Polarized Our Country how black
conservatives are viewed as "opportunistic or, worse, self-hating, and
sycophantic" rather than as voices that may hold a different point of
view. Shame is not used to create cohesion; it is used to divide
America into balkanized political camps and to denigrate black Americans by
smothering their individual voices.
It is, however, not viewed
as shameful that anti-Semitic, American-hating individuals run for political
office. In addition, criminal behavior is excused. In the
past, Marion Barry, former videotaped crack-smoker, was re-elected as mayor of
Washington. Clinton, a serial rapist, is welcomed to McCain's
funeral, as is his wife, who as a "manifest felon" is the epitome of
every unscrupulous behavior and trickery she can get away with by committing
fraud, harming American lives, and lying to the American public.
Farrakhan, who hates whites and Jews with a vengeance sits comfortably in
the front of the Franklin ceremony and no one bothers to comment about his
odious deeds. Michelle Malkin eloquently describes the crass and
despicable behavior that characterized the John McCain and Aretha Franklin
funeral services.
Twitchell speaks about
"intellectual shame." Grades that were meant to be a
catalyst for improvement become meaningless in a world where any interpretation
of a subject is no better than another. Then grades are eliminated;
standardized tests are no longer mandatory, or scores are manipulated depending
upon the ethnicity of the test-taker.
More recently, the
University of Houston, Texas's third largest university, has been stonewalling
allegations that a school superintendent plagiarized the doctoral dissertation he submitted as a student at the
university's College of Education.
Rutgers
athletics football program was
rocked when law enforcement announced that six active players were among ten
people charged with a string of crimes around campus including home invasions and
aggravated assaults.
At all levels of education,
standards have precipitously dropped, academic expectations are lowered and
campus groupthink reigns supreme as "institutions once devoted to the
pursuit of truth and the free exchange of ideas now engage in the infantilisation of
students." The "crucial ceremonies of adult decency"
are lost.
In 1974 Eric Hoffer penned a
piece titled "Long
Live Shame!" wherein he asserted
that "there is one dangerous threat that no society can escape: namely,
the recurrent threat of disruption by juveniles as a young generation passes
from boyhood to manhood." In his cogent piece, he writes:
Shame, far more than guilt,
involves an awareness by the individual of being watched and judged by the
group. It is to be expected, therefore, that the more compact the group, the
more pronounced the sense of shame. The member of a compact group
carries the group within him, and never feels alone.
Yet Woody Allen saw "no
moral dilemma whatsoever" in having an affair with the 20-year-old adopted
daughter of Mia Farrow, with whom he'd raised a family.
Then there is the disgusting
display of Harvey Weinstein, who seemingly can never control himself.
Powerful people continue to
be duplicitous and get away with it. We are still awaiting the truth
about Benghazi, Fast and Furious, and Huma Abedin's Muslim Brotherhood
connections.
Then there are the social
media moguls. According to a report in The New York Times, Facebook began
granting inappropriate access to personal information of its users to
third parties around ten years ago, yet in front of Congress, Zuckerberg fudged
this information. This
graphic puts a lie to
Zuckerberg's mealy-mouthed assertions.
Should we be surprised that
young people have little respect for any societal rules? The fact
that nothing is sacred, that all taboos are to be dismissively diminished has
created a scenario where young people have no support net to fall back upon.
If America returned to a
time wherein bad manners and crude and lewd behavior were considered verboten instead
of being applauded and protected, perhaps a #MeToo Movement would not have been
needed.
Forty-five years since
Hoffer wrote "Long Live Shame" his words are quite prescient.
In this country at present
the inability of adults to socialize their young has made it possible for
juveniles to follow their bents, act on their impulses, and materialize their
fantasies and the 'result has been a youth culture flauntingly shameless.'
Consider the vicious attacks
on people and property that are countenanced, certainly rarely stopped as
Antifa, and Black Lives Matters and their ilk run roughshod in the
country. This is not an assertion of civil liberties. It
is pure violence, plain and simple. College administrators watch
while their universities are trampled upon.
This confirms another Hoffer
assertion: "[t]he disconcerting thing is that loss of shame is not
confined to juveniles."
Shame properly used is
"how a sense of decency is developed." It protects the
group from the dangers of individual excesses. It is a balancing
tool that keeps people accountable.
In classical Greek mythology, Aidos was the "goddess of modesty, shame, reverence and
respect. She was a companion of the goddess Nemesis. As a
quality Aidos was the feeling of shame which restrains men from doing wrong,
while Nemesis was righteous indignation aroused by the sight of wicked men
receiving undeserved good fortune."

SENATOR BOOKER QUOTES VIOLENT RACIST WHO URGED MURDER
OF JEWS, WHITE PEOPLE
“The only good
Zionist is a dead Zionist we must take a lesson from Hitler”
September 10, 2018
Daniel Greenfield, a
Shillman Journalism Fellow at the Freedom Center, is an investigative
journalist and writer focusing on the radical left and Islamic terrorism.
Supreme Court nominee Brett
Kavanaugh’s confirmation hearing was the beginning of the Democrat 2020
primaries, and the winner was the Senate Democrat who yelled the worst possible
thing.
That was Senator Cory
Booker.
Unlike some Senate Dems,
Booker didn’t just confine his attack to Brett Kavanaugh, a mild-mannered man
widely beloved by both the Democrats and Republicans who worked with him, he
went for broke.
The Founding Fathers were
racist geniuses, Booker insisted. Their constitution was flawed. Originalism,
interpreting the Constitution as it was written, rather than whatever social
justice activist the Dems had managed to plant on the bench, is going to be
racist and sexist, because its authors were deplorables.
“Native Americans were
referred to as savages, women weren’t referred to at all, African Americans
were referred to as fractions of human beings. As one civil-rights activist
used to say ‘constitutu, constitu, I can only say three-fifths of the
word,’” Booker bloviated.
Who is this “civil rights
activist”? A violent racist who had called Adolf Hitler “the greatest white
man”.
You can see why Booker might
have hesitated a bit when using him to bolster his claim that the Founding Fathers
of this country were flawed racist sexist men. Even though, unlike Booker’s
civil rights hero, they didn’t admire Hitler or call for the mass murder of
Jews.
Senator Cory Booker doesn’t
yawn without first rehearsing it before three staff members and two consultants
to extract the maximum amount of pathos from each fake gesture. He had been
regularly delivering the same attack on the Constitution as a stump speech. You
can find Senator Cory Booker bleating the same basic remarks last March at SXSW before a much friendlier lefty audience.
“Look, our founding
documents are saturated — unfortunately — are scene with replete through them,
these examples all those darker strains of human nature,” Booker held forth at
SXSW. “Native Americans are referred to as savages, women aren’t referred to at
all. Blacks are, you know Stokely Carmichael used to say, constitute constitute
I can only say three fifths of the word.”
There are examples going back
several years, with Booker saying, “Stokely Carmichael said it best: we are the
leaders we’ve been looking for.”
In a July interview this
year, his Stokelyite attack on the Constitution was even harsher. “Yeah, if you
read the Declaration of Independence now, you see the Native Americans referred
to as “savages.” And women are clearly, by their omission, a second-class
citizenry. Stokely Carmichael — I love how he used to always say, ‘Constitu-,
constitu- — I can only say three-fifths of the word.’”
Two others are way ahead of it: “The only good Zionist is a dead Zionist we must take a
lesson from Hitler” and “The only position for women in SNCC is prone."
Anti-Semitism has become
socially acceptable among Democrats, but the party that sent in activists to
scream that Brett Kavanaugh was a horrible sexist and a sexual harasser by
association is okay with Stokely’s sexism and Booker’s admiration of him. The
left’s standards, like its vision, are all double.
Stokely Carmichael, better
known as Kwame Ture, was a leftist bigot who had called for racist violence.
Black Panther Mark Essex
burst into a New Orleans hotel, shouting, “I want the whites!” He murdered a
young honeymooning couple, hotel guests and staff members, and a number of
police officers. Stokely Carmichael praised Essex, saying, “We should study and
learn from the actions of Brother Essex. We should understand that Brother
Essex carried our struggle to its next quantitative level, the level of
science.”
Carmichael had also
declared, “I’ve never admired a white man, but the greatest of them, to my
mind, was Hitler.”
"Go home and get your
guns," Carmichael had urged after Martin Luther King’s death, "When
the white man comes he is coming to kill you. I don't want any black blood in
the street.”
"We are preparing
groups of urban guerrillas for our defense in the cities," he warned in
Communist Cuba. "It is going to be a fight to the death."
Stokely Carmichael burned
through the SNCC and moved on the Black Panthers, but his violent hatred of
white people proved to be too much even for the black nationalist hate group.
But Booker’s hero nurtured a particular hatred of Jews. And his anti-Semitic
threats led to actual anti-Semitic attacks.
Nor did Carmichael have any
objection to that.
“Zionist pigs have been
harassing us everywhere,” he warned at the University of Maryland, “And when
this anger rises, will snap our fingers and finish them off."
It was 1990.
Senator Booker has repeatedly
quoted a violent racist. At the Kavanaugh hearing, he cited an attack on the
legitimacy of our founding documents from an advocate of a socialist black
nationalist revolution through mass murder, a supporter of Saddam Hussein,
Gaddafi and assorted murderous dictators.
And yet there’s nothing
extraordinary about it.
Carmichael’s anti-Semitism
had been defended in the past by Rep. Keith Ellison, the number two man at the
DNC and Dem nominee for Minnesota Attorney General. He was attended by Rep. Maxine
Waters.
Americans are treated to
non-stop lectures about racism from top lefties like Cory Booker. But they are
the ones who are the most in need of those hectoring lectures about the evils
of racism.
When former president Barack
Obama, former president Bill Clinton and Eric Holder, a top DOJ official in
both administrations, have been caught hanging around with Farrakhan, there’s a
racism problem.
When Senator Booker casually
quotes a violent anti-Semitic racist, there’s a serious racism problem.
It’s a problem of black
racism. And until it’s taken seriously, there are no other conversations about
racism worth having. When the top figures in the Democrat party are okay with
anti-Semitism and racism, then their political faction and its media apparatus has
no right to lecture on racism.
In October 2016, Booker tweeted a
photo commemorating Farrakhan's Million Man March. "May the unity and
spirit of the march continue to live on," he wrote, over a photo of a
marcher brandishing a poster that included Louis Farrakhan. No complex
interpretation of hand gestures is needed here.
Farrakhan, like Stokely
Carmichael, is a racist and anti-Semite who admires Hitler. And he’s a pal of
presidents and politicians. Including the men who lecture us on how racist the
Founding Fathers were.
There is a deep racist and
anti-Semitic disease in the leadership of the Democrats. As Senator Cory Booker
brings his hatred for the Jewish State to the Senate, he should be asked
whether he agrees with his hero, “The only good Zionist is a dead Zionist we
must take a lesson from Hitler”.
ANTI-SEMITE LOUIS FARRAKHAN SPOTTED IN THE FRONT ROW AT ARETHA FRANKLIN’S FUNERAL

Louis Farrakhan, the anti-Semitic leader of the Nation of Islam,

A live broadcast of the Queen of Soul’s funeral shows Farrakhan
seated in the same row with Rev. Al Sharpton, Rev. Jesse Jackson and President
Bill Clinton.

Farrakhan is a black nationalist who has called for an end to
white men and repeatedly gone on angry rants against Jewish people. (RELATED: Seven Louis

“Some of you think that I’m just somebody who’s got something
out for the Jewish people. You’re stupid. Do you think I would waste my time if
I did not think it was important for you to know Satan? My job is to pull the
cover off of Satan so that he will never deceive you and the people of the
world again,” Farrakhan said in 2011.
In 2015, he asserted, “White people deserve to die, and they
know, so they think it’s us coming to do it.” (RELATED: Louis Farrakhan Issues A Sunday

Calls for respect for black America at Franklin funeral
DETROIT (AP) — As Aretha Franklin
was remembered at her funeral Friday as a proud black woman who also used her
magnificent voice to stand up for the black community she loved, several
speakers used the moment to continue to demand respect for black America.
Amid the gospel, personal
reflections and grief were calls to register and turnout to vote in November
and condemnation of President Donald Trump, who, upon her death, referred to
Franklin as “someone who worked for me” — a comment that rankled many
African-Americans.
“No — she used to perform for
you,” the Rev. Al Sharpton said to cheers and applause from the crowd. “She worked
for us. Aretha never took orders from nobody but God.”
Franklin’s civil rights legacy was
mentioned often during the eight-hour service, and was tied to her faith and
roots in the black church. Many also mentioned her father, the Rev. C.L.
Franklin, and his civil rights leadership, which influenced his daughter from a
young age.
Late Friday, Franklin was laid to
rest in a mausoleum at Woodlawn Cemetery, the final resting place of her
father.
None of the politicians present —
including former President Bill Clinton and former Attorney General Eric Holder
— took the opportunity to turn the event partisan. Michigan Democratic House
Rep. Brenda Lawrence took a moment to recognize Arizona Republican Sen. John
McCain, whose funeral is Saturday.
But others seized on Trump’s
comments and Franklin’s message of dignity to speak to the present social and
political climate. In pointing out the long lines to pay tribute to Franklin
this week, the Rev. Jesse Jackson lamented that the lines to vote often aren’t
nearly as long.
BLOG: FRANKLIN'S ONLY "BATTLEGROUND" WAS THE TABLE!
SHE DID NOTHING FOR BLACK AMERICAN OR ANYONE ELSE!
“Aretha was on the battleground
for 60 years,” Jackson told the audience. “We have long lines to celebrate
death, and short lines for voting. Something is missing. If you leave here
today and don’t register to vote, you’re dishonoring Aretha.”
Judge Greg Mathis, one of
Franklin’s many friends who often talked politics with her, said that his last
conversation with Franklin earlier this summer was about the ongoing water
crisis in Flint, Michigan, where government negligence has left residents
living with lead-tainted water since 2014.
“Her last words to me … were “‘Go
back up there and sock it to ’em!,'” Mathis told the crowd before vowing that he
would in her memory.
Some made a statement without
saying a word. When she was shouted out from the stage, California Democrat
Rep. Maxine Waters — who has called frequently for Trump’s impeachment and is a
campaign rally punching bag for the president — acknowledged the crowd with the
“Wakanda salute,” from the movie “Black Panther,” closing her fists and
crossing her arms over her chest to applause.
Many in the audience, including
President Clinton, stood and cheered.
“Everybody just point over there
and tell her, ‘We got your back!'” said Bishop Charles H. Ellis III, pastor of
Greater Grace Temple, which the audience shouted in Waters’ direction.
Georgetown University sociologist
Michael Eric Dyson took several shots at Trump in his remarks, assigning the
president several nicknames: “orange apparition,” ”lugubrious leech,”
”doppleganger of deceit and deceit,” ”lethal liar,” ”dimwitted dictator,”
”foolish facist.”
“She ain’t work for you,” Dyson
shouted over applause. “She worked above you. She worked beyond you. Get your
preposition right.”
Jewish
Leaders Slam Anti-Semite Louis Farrakhan’s Place of Honor at Aretha Franklin’s
Funeral
TEL AVIV – American Jewish
leaders expressed outrage over the place of honor given to virulently
antisemitic Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan at Aretha Franklin’s funeral
on Friday.
Farrakhan was seated in the front
row alongside other controversial African-American figures, Al Sharpton and
Jesse Jackson. Former president Bill Clinton sat three places to Farrakhan’s
left.
Jonathan Greenblatt, CEO of the
Anti-Defamation League, said it was “jarring” to see a “hatemonger” like
Farrakhan at the funeral.
“It was absolutely jarring to see
one of America’s leading purveyors of antisemitism given a place of such
prominence at Aretha’s funeral,” Greenblatt told the Algemeiner. “We join the country in mourning the Queen of Soul, but
this was an honor that an unapologetic hatemonger like Farrakhan didn’t
deserve.”
Abraham Cooper of the Simon
Wiesenthal Center charged Farrakhan with despising America and Jews.
“Like millions of other Americans
who grew up listening to Aretha Franklin’s amazing voice, I was saddened by her
passing. Putting Louis Farrakhan in a seat of honor in the first row on stage,
near President Clinton and amidst a generation of African-American political
and religious leaders was equally saddening,” Cooper said in a statement
to the Algemeiner.
“50 years ago Aretha Franklin
received an award from Martin Luther King Jr. and toured the country to raise
money for the struggling Civil Rights Movement,” he added. “For decades
Farrakhan has stood against everything MLK lived and died for. He hates America
and hates Jews. Aretha Franklin wasn’t a hater. The sight of his smiling face
on stage soured the heartfelt music and words during the marathon tribute to a
great icon.”
Betty Ehrenberg , executive
director of the World Jewish Congress North America, lamented Farrakhan’s
status as a role model for activists and candidates for office.
“We were dismayed to learn that
Farrakhan was seated in a prominent place at the funeral of a widely revered
artist,” she said. “And it is equally dismaying to see him being admired by some
newly emerging activists and candidates for office who should not associate
with an unapologetic antisemite with a long history of racist views.”
As Breitbart
Jerusalem reported in March, Rep.
Danny Davis, an Illinois Democrat, praised Farrakhan as an “outstanding human
being.”
The three leaders of the Women’s
March, Tamika Mallory, Carmen Perez and Linda Sarsour have also aligned
themselves with Farrakhan.
Abraham Foxman, head of the Center
for the Study of Anti-Semitism at New York’s Museum of Jewish Heritage, told
the Algemeiner, “Sadly the African-American
community has a blind spot when it comes to antisemitism. They have always
given a pass to Louis Farrakhan’s racism and antisemitism. They don’t recognize
him as a racist and antisemite, and that’s sad for the relationship between our
two communities.”
Renowned law professor Alan
Dershowitz expressed his dismay that Clinton appeared alongside Farrakhan.
“I know there was a relationship
30 years earlier between Louis Farrakhan and Aretha Franklin. I don’t know if
that relationship continued, or whether the family invited him, but I think any
president should have said, ‘No. If you want me on the stage, you can’t have a
bigot like Farrakhan sitting next to me,’” he told Fox & Friends.
“You just can’t mainstream and
allow legitimacy to a man who has expressed the kind of hateful views he’s
expressed of Jews, of white people, of gays,” he added.
Democratic New York State
Assemblyman Dov Hikind called the incident “shocking.”
“Louis Farrakhan, front and
center, treated like royalty? What is this obsession with America’s Black
Hitler? In spite of his crude, vicious comments about Jews, whites, gays, he is
placed up front with President Clinton? Shocking!”
Earlier this year, Farrakhan
delivered a rancorous anti-Semitic rant at the 2018 Saviour’s Day event in
Chicago, calling Jews members of the “Synagogue of Satan” and claiming that
Jesus called the Jews “the children of the devil” and “when you want something in
this world, the Jew holds the door.”
“Jews were responsible for all of
this filth and degenerate behavior that Hollywood is putting out turning men
into women and women into men. And Farrakhan, by God’s grace, has pulled the
cover off of that Satanic Jew and I’m here to say your time is up, your world
is through,” the Nation of Islam leader said.
After Franklin died last month,
Farrakhan released a statement saying, “In 1972, when I was minister in New
York City, Temple No. 7, the police attacked our mosque. Within a few hours,
Aretha Franklin came to the mosque, to my office, and said that she saw the
news and came as quickly as she could to stand with us and offer us her
support.”
“We marveled at her show of
courage, fearlessness which was rooted in her profound love for her people and
her desire for justice for us,” Farrakhan added.

Initially, officials made 140,000 arrests per year in the mid-2000s, but the

2013, according to a 2014 letter by

covering 690,000 younger illegals now enrolled in former President Barack

Policy Institute.”

FORD HELPS PROMOTE FARRAKHAN CLAIM OF
JEWISH PLOT TO MAKE BLACK MEN GAY
Major
corporations get behind racism and anti-Semitism.
September 20, 2018
Daniel Greenfield, a Shillman Journalism Fellow at the Freedom
Center, is an investigative journalist and writer focusing on the radical left
and Islamic terrorism
On Saturday, the Human
Rights Campaign, the country's top gay rights lobby, held its 22nd annual
dinner. Top speakers included Joe Biden, who bemoaned the lack of acceptance
for gay people, Anne Hathaway, who shrieked, “Let’s tear this world apart and
build a better one”, and Obama's Attorney General, Eric Holder, who declared,
“The age of bullies and bigots is not fully behind us”.
Holder would know. He
was last seen posing with
Louis Farrakhan at Aretha Franklin's funeral. The leader of the Nation of Islam
is both a bigot and a bully. He also loathes gay people.
The HRC dinner was taking
place at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center concurrently with the
Congressional Black Caucus Foundation's Phoenix Awards.
Holder's boss, Barack Obama,
had been caught posing with Farrakhan at a Congressional Black Caucus event. And multiple CBC
members have refused to condemn Farrakhan. They include Rep. Danny Davis,
who had called Farrakhan
an “outstanding human being”. They also include Rep. Maxine Waters.
On Friday, the day before,
Rep. Maxine Waters had received the
National Leadership Award from the National Newspaper Publishers Association.
The NNPA is an association
of black papers that includes Final
Call, the paper of Farrakhan and the Nation of Islam. Ford, GM,
AT&T, Pfizer, AARP, Comcast, and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation act
as partners and sponsors of an association that includes a notorious racist and
anti-Semitic hate group.
Ford had spent a long time
trying to live down its past association with another anti-Semitic paper, The Dearborn Independent,
only to end up associated with yet another violently anti-Semitic publication.
The HRC has its own
extensive relationship with Ford. It has nothing to say about Ford’s NNPA role.
At the 2018 Black Press
conference sponsored by the NNPA, which had previously honored Senator Kamala
Harris, the First Place Feature Writing Award went to a Final Call article,
“The Feminization of Black Men” which quoted Farrakhan’s
claims that drugs were being used to turn black men gay.
"He can make you think
you’re a homosexual, he’s feminizing the Black man," the racist leader
declared. "You are the guinea lambs of White experimentation."
"We now have
feminization and homosexual behaviors being normalized in the Black
community," another of the article's experts warned.
The NNPA awarded piece then
went on to quote Nation of Islam minister Wesley Muhammad, whose version
of the ‘Pot Plot’ warned
that that the government and the Jews were using pot to make black men gay.
“It’s the US government and
the Synagogue of Satan’s scheme to use manipulated marijuana along with other
drugs to de-masculinize and feminize the black male of America," Wesley
warned at a mosque. “While it cannot be said that the Pot Plot that we are
exposing is a strictly Jewish conspiracy, the Synagogue of Satan is the key
player."
Last month, Mary Beth
Maxwell was forced to
resign as the head of the education arm of the Human Rights Campaign for using
the ‘N-word’ twice. But nobody at the Congressional Black Caucus or the NNPA is
resigning. Not for the racism, the anti-Semitism or the homophobia.
The NNPA’s tolerance for
both shouldn’t be surprising. It’s headed by Ben Chavis, a former NAACP boss
and former member of the Nation of Islam, who had tried to steer the NAACP
closer to Farrakhan.
At the HRC dinner, Anne
Hathaway denounced white and straight privilege, attacking the “myth” that
“gayness orbits around straightness, transgender orbits around cisgender, and
that all races orbit around whiteness.” The tidy intersectional formula though
doesn’t remotely reflect reality.
Identity politics is a
coalition of separate identity resentments united only by loathing the
construct of an oppressive majority, of whiteness, straightness and whatever
othering formula the left is offering this week. Once you get past those common
bonds of bigotry, of hating the same people, unity falls apart.
The attendees at the
National Newspaper Publishers Association and the Congressional Black Caucus
dinner move in the same Democrat orbits, but have very different views of each
other. Eric Holder goes from rubbing shoulders with Louis Farrakhan to
pontificating for wealthy gay donors at the HRC dinner.
Wells Fargo and Pfizer
sponsor both the NNPA and the HRC, funding both celebrations of gayness and of
the promotion of conspiracy theories about drug companies, governments and Jews
conspiring to make black men gay. It’s not just individuals, but politicians
and major corporations on the ‘down-low’, appealing separately to wealthy gay
men and the black political allies of an anti-gay hate group.
Nobody speaks about the
essential contradictions of a movement that includes both militant
denunciations of homophobia at the HRC dinner and the NNPA’s support for
Farrakhan’s militant denunciations of homosexuality. The friction between gay
nationalism and black nationalism is just another of the many schizophrenic
frictions of the Democrats in the dark age of identity politics.
Identity politics
nationalism is based on a thousand clashing convictions of the superiority of
the group and the inferiority of outsiders. Every identity politics group has
its own Farrakhan, the ‘extremist’ who is popular within that group because he
preaches its total superiority and the inferiority of the ‘Other’.
No matter how much the left
wants to unify pride and identity politics nationalism around hating an
artificial idea of straight white men, a multicultural society is one with a
multitude of hatreds. The more diverse America becomes, the more diverse the
varied hatreds of the rainbow coalition will get.
The left killed liberalism,
tolerance and coexistence. What’s waiting in the wings is Farrakhan
Apologists on the left
insist that black people love Farrakhan, not because of his bigotry, but
because of his message of empowerment. But Farrakhan’s message of ‘empowerment’
is based entirely on his bigotry. The Nation of Islam’s message of black
empowerment derives from its theological conviction that black people are a
master race while white people (and especially Jews) are genetically evil.
Farrakhan’s message of
“empowerment” is the same as Hitler’s. It lays out a vision of a naturally
superior people being oppressed by their racial inferiors through trickery and
cunning. The NNPA awarded an article whose rhetoric echoes Nazi Germany’s
Goebbels almost word for
word.
The black empowerment of the
Nation of Islam that the left praised is based on racism, dehumanization and
power. When Obama, Holder, leaders of the Women’s March, and members of the
Congressional Black Caucus embrace Farrakhan, they’re showing their own hate.
And the farce of identity politics.
When Eric Holder flirts with
black nationalists and gay rights activists, whom does he go home with at
night? Democrats running for the White House inevitably head to New York City
to meet with Al Sharpton who once ranted about, “Greek
homos”, and then condemn
homophobia. Maxine Waters plays aunt to the #resistance of white lefties,
but hugs Louis Farrakhan and collects an award from a press association that includes
Farrakhan’s Final
Call, with its claims of a plot to make black men gay.
The Democrats are all on the
‘down-low’, flirting with bigots and then condemning bigotry.
Corporations throw money at
both the NNPA and the HRC, and any other diverse dinner they can find. The
media could expose the contradictions, but it chooses to ignore principles for
political expediency.
The obsessive accusations of
bigotry aimed at Republicans are a typical example of projection. The left
needs to believe that Republicans are bigots so that its members can pretend
that they aren’t. As the devil’s bargain with identity politics takes hold, the
accusations of bigotry grow shriller, not because Republicans have become more
bigoted, but because the Dems are dealing with more internal bigotry.
The schizoid nature of
identity politics is turning the Democrats into bigots who scream about
bigotry.
And the more they scream,
the more bigoted they are.
Meanwhile the NNPA, an
organization that includes a racist paper put out by a racist hate group, is
sponsored by Ford, GM, Bill Gates, AT&T, MillerCoors, the AARP, Coca Cola,
Macy's, Toyota, VW, Pfizer, Wells Fargo and many other major corporations and
organizations. Racism is big business once again.
Major corporations have
gotten behind racism and anti-Semitism because the Democrats have.
Why do American Jews vote for Democrats?
For all those who have wondered how American Jews could support
the Democrats, let me explain. It has to do with history and
psychology.
First, let's remember that humans are entirely emotional
creatures. We make almost all of our decisions based on emotions and
then use logic and reason to justify our emotional choices. Jews,
being human, do the same thing.
When the Jews began immigrating to America by the millions between
1880 and 1920, they were escaping the pogroms (anti-Jewish riots that included
arsons, rapes, and murders) in Russia and Poland (then part of
Russia). They arrived in New York City with just about nothing and
found themselves living in the impoverished and violent slums of New York's
5-Points and Lower East Side neighborhoods. The only jobs they could
get were in the garment industry's sweat shops, where they toiled for 12 or 14
hours a day for only pennies. Life was miserable, and there was no
way to escape.
But then, on March 25, 1911, something happened that changed
everything. The Triangle Shirtwaist Factory caught on fire while it
was filled with impoverished Jewish workers, almost all of whom were
women. Those workers were unable to leave the building because the
emergency exits had been locked to prevent the workers from stepping outside
for a smoke. One hundred forty-six garment workers died that day due
to fire or smoke or jumping through windows several stories high down to the
cold, hard pavement.
The Jewish community in NYC then exploded in outrage. New
York was overwhelmed by demonstrations demanding reforms. The Jewish
community joined the movement to unionize New York's garment industry, a
movement that was strongly supported by the Democrats but resisted by the
Republicans. The decision to do that was, of course, totally
emotional. And those strong emotions became part of the American
Jewish psyche. Democrats were presumed to be for the little guy, and
Republicans were assumed to be rich, white men. The Jewish community
(other than the Orthodox) and the Democrats became joined at the
hip. The majority of Jewish families taught its kids to vote
Democrat for justice for the little guy. Voting Democrat became a
part of Jewish culture in America.
That Jewish emotional attachment to the Democrats has continued
for generations even though most American Jews today have never heard of the
Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire. As time went by and the community
became less religious, "progressive" politics replaced Judaism and
God. Their new gods (idols, really) became Democrat leaders, and
their new religion became progressivism. Emotionally, the community
is still right where it was back in 1911, despite the fact that America has
changed and the Democrats have really changed. Most of the Jewish
community is now so identified with progressivism that 70 percent of American
Jews now vote for Democrats. To do that, they have to deny the
Democrats' Jew-hate and Israel-hate, and so they do. Like all
humans, they see what they want to see and ignore that which they don't want to
see.
That's why, if you ask a Jewish Democrat how he feels about the
Jew-hate in the Democratic Party, he will probably scream insults at you but
never touch the subject you brought up. (That's happened to me
numerous times.) These Jews just can't let anything disturb the
comfortable delusion that they inherited from their parents and grandparents
that the Democrats are for the little guy, especially the Jews.
But times have changed, and they are wrong. Today, the
big issue is the survival of Israel, and it is the Republicans, not the
Democrats, who are on our side.
Nonetheless, due to the long historical and psychological
connection between American Jews and the Democrats, it's likely to be a long
time before that link is broken.

THE CRIME WAVE THAT IS THE BU$H FAMILY STARTED TWO WARS AGAINST
IRAQ ON BEHALF OF THEIR SAUDI PAYMASTERS.
The perilous ramifications of the September 11 attacks on the
United States are only now beginning to unfold. They will undoubtedly be felt
for generations to come. This is one of many sad conclusions readers will draw
from Craig Unger's exceptional book House of Bush House of Saud: The Secret
Relationship Between the World's Two Most Powerful Dynasties. As Unger claims
in this incisive study, the seeds for the "Age of Terrorism" and
September 11 were planted nearly 30 years ago in what, at the time, appeared to
be savvy business transactions that subsequently translated into political
currency and the union between the Saudi royal family and the extended
political family of George H. W. Bush. On the surface, the claim may appear to
be politically driven, but as Unger (a respected investigative journalist and
editor) probes--with scores of documents and sources--the political tenor of
the U.S. over the last 30 years, the Iran-Iraq War, the war in Afghanistan, the
birth of Al Qaeda, the dubious connection between members of the Saudi Royal
family and the exportation of terror, and the personal fortunes amassed by the
Bush family from companies such as Harken Energy and the Carlyle Group, he
exposes the "brilliantly hidden agendas and purposefully murky corporate
relationships" between these astonishingly powerful families. His evidence is
persuasive and reveals a devastating story of Orwellian proportions, replete
with political deception, shifting allegiances, and lethal global consequences.
Unger begins his book with the remarkable story of the repatriation of 140
Saudis directly following the September 11 attacks. He ends where Richard A. Clarkebegins, questioning the
efficacy of the war in Iraq in the battle against terrorism. We are
unquestionably facing a global security crisis unlike any before. President
Bush insists that we will prevail, yet as Unger so effectively concludes, "Never
before has an American president been so closely tied to a foreign power that
harbors and supports our country's mortal enemies." --Silvana

WHO WILL PUMP MILLIONS INTO THE PHONY CLINTON FOUNDATION IF THE FILTHY SAUDIS ARE EXECUTED?
AT WHOSE FEET WILL BARACK OBAMA KNEEL AND KISS IF HIS PAYMASTERS, THE FILTHY SAUDIS GO UNDER?
FBI holds 80,000 pages of secret documents on Saudi-9/11 links
FBI holds 80,000 pages of secret documents on Saudi-9/11 links

The American FBI has a secret cache of documents, more than
80,000 pages in all, concerning possible ties between the 9/11 hijackers and an
upper-class Saudi family who lived in Florida and fled the United States two
weeks before the suicide hijackings that killed nearly 3,000 people.
A federal judge in Tampa, Florida has been reviewing the documents for more than two years as a consequence of a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit brought by a trio of online reporters—Anthony Summers, Robbyn Swan and Dan Christensen. The review process has been extremely slow because of restrictive FBI rules on how many pages Judge William Zloch may access at any one time.
The existence of the document trove was revealed Friday in a front-page article in the US-based web publication the Daily Beast. The article identified the Saudi family as Abdulaziz al-Hijji and his wife Anoud, who was the daughter of Esam Ghazzawi, an adviser to a nephew of Saudi King Fahd.
Ghazzawi owned the home in which they were staying in a gated community in Sarasota, Florida. The home was raided by the FBI after 9/11 but the residents had all departed in evident haste on August 30, 2001.
Visitor logs in the community, known as Prestancia, showed that the alleged ringleader of the 9/11 hijackers, Mohammad Atta, had visited al-Hijji, along with two other 9/11 hijackers, Ziad Jarrah and Marwan Al-Shehhi.
Former Senator Robert Graham, co-chair of the joint congressional committee that investigated the 9/11 attacks, told the Daily Beast that he had never known of the FBI documents on the Saratoga home until they were uncovered by the investigative journalists. He later viewed a portion of these records and confirmed that they identified the three 9/11 hijackers as visitors.
Throughout this period, the FBI had denied that the al-Hijji family had any connection to the 9/11 attackers. The agency changed its story only when Graham said he would testify under oath about what he had read in the file of documents. At this point the FBI conceded the existence of 35 pages of documents.
When Judge Zloch ordered a further search for records, the Tampa office of the FBI came back with 80,226 pages of files marked PENTTBOM, which stands for “Pentagon/Twin-Towers Bombing” in FBI jargon. Judge Zloch has been reviewing these since May 1, 2014 and has given no date by which he expects to finish.
The al-Hijji family exited its Sarasota home, leaving behind three cars, an open safe and disarray that suggested a hasty departure. The security guards at the gated community noted their departure, but did not consider it suspicious until the 9/11 attacks two weeks later.
The FBI initially made only a perfunctory response and did not open a formal investigation until eight months later, in April 2002, “based upon repeated citizen calls” about the conduct of the family during their stay in the United States. One of the few documents released said that this investigation “revealed many connections” between a member of the family “and individuals associated with the terrorist attacks.”
The Daily Beast report adds to recent revelations of evidence of Saudi regime ties to the 9/11 hijackers that has been covered up by the US government under both the Bush and Obama administrations.
Graham has actively campaigned for the release of 28 pages of material on the Saudi-9/11 connection comprising an entire chapter of the joint congressional committee report on the 9/11 attacks in which he participated. This material has been withheld for more than 13 years. On April 10, Graham was the main witness interviewed by the CBS program “60 Minutes” in a segment on the continuing cover-up of Saudi-9/11 connections.
In an op-ed column this week in the Washington Post, Graham reiterated his demand for release of the 28 pages, noting that President Obama had promised a decision on declassifying the material by next month. Graham denounced CIA Director John Brennan, who responded to the “60 Minutes” program by publicly opposing any release of the 28 pages.
Also Friday, the Guardian newspaper published an interview with a former member of the bipartisan 9/11 Commission appointed by President George W. Bush, who flatly declared that there was extensive Saudi involvement in supporting the hijackers. Of the 19 perpetrators, 15 were Saudi citizens, most of them having recently arrived in the United States when they seized control of four jetliners on September 11, 2001.
Former Navy Secretary John Lehman, a Republican, told the newspaper: “There was an awful lot of participation by Saudi individuals in supporting the hijackers, and some of those people worked in the Saudi government.” While only one Saudi consular official in Los Angeles, Fahad al-Thumairy, was implicated in supporting the hijackers, according to the official account, Lehman believes that at least five officials were involved.
Al-Thumairy was linked to the two hijackers who lived in San Diego before the 9/11 attacks, Nawaf al-Hazmi and Khalid al-Mihdhar, but he was deported rather than charged with a crime. The other five, whom Lehman did not name, “may not have been indicted, but they were certainly implicated. There was an awful lot of circumstantial evidence.”
Another former 9/11 commissioner, who spoke to the Guardian without direct attribution, recounted what the newspaper called “a mostly unknown chapter of the history of the 9/11 commission: behind closed doors, members of the panel’s staff fiercely protested the way the material about the Saudis was presented in the final report, saying it underplayed or ignored evidence that Saudi officials—especially at lower levels of the government—were part of an al-Qaida support network that had been tasked to assist the hijackers after they arrived in the US.”
The 9/11 Commission director, Philip Zelikow, who later served in the Bush administration as senior counselor to Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, fired one staffer who protested over the suppression of the Saudi ties to 9/11 after she obtained a copy of the suppressed 28 pages of the joint congressional committee report. Zelikow and the commission members overruled staff protests on the soft-pedaling of the Saudi connection.
These press reports confirm what the World Socialist Web Site has long maintained: the official 9/11 investigations were a series of whitewashes aimed at concealing the role of the Saudi government and US intelligence agencies during the period leading up to the terrorist attacks.
There has long been evidence that sections of the US government were aware of the plot to hijack and suicide-crash airliners, but turned a blind eye because such an atrocity could be used to stampede American public opinion and provide a pretext for escalating US military interventions throughout the Middle East and Central Asia.

KISSING SAUDI ASS AND FUNDING A PRESIDENTIAL LIBRARY THAT IS TOO
SECRETED TO HAVE PRESIDENTIAL PAPERS
Congress overrides Obama veto of bill allowing 9/11 lawsuits
By Tom Carter
30 September 2016
On Wednesday, the US
Congress overturned President Obama’s veto of legislation that would permit
victims of the September 11, 2001 attacks and their families to sue Saudi
Arabia. Declassified documents released this year confirm the involvement of
Saudi intelligence agents in the funding, organization, and planning of the
attacks—facts which were covered up for years by the Bush and Obama
administrations.
The vote, 97-1 in the Senate
and 348-77 in the House of Representatives, represents the first and only
congressional override of Obama’s presidency. Under the US Constitution, the
president’s veto can be overturned only by a two-thirds majority vote in both
houses of Congress.
The Obama administration and
the military and intelligence agencies, backed by sections of the media,
including the New York Times, have vigorously denounced the legislation. Obama
personally, together with Central Intelligence Agency director John Brennan,
Defense Secretary Ashton Carter, and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff
Joseph Dunford among others, have all publicly opposed the bill.
In a letter to Congress
opposing the legislation, Obama warned that the bill would “threaten to erode
sovereign principles that protect the United States, including our U.S. Armed
Forces and other officials, overseas.”
In a lead editorial on
Wednesday, the New York Times similarly warned that “if the bill becomes law,
other countries could adopt similar legislation defining their own exemptions
to sovereign immunity. Because no country is more engaged in the world than the
United States—with military bases, drone operations, intelligence missions and
training programs—the Obama administration fears that Americans could be
subject to legal actions abroad.”
In other words, the bill
would set a precedent for families of victims of American aggression
abroad—such as the tens of thousands of victims of “targeted killings” ordered
by Obama personally—to file lawsuits against US war criminal in their own
countries’ courts.
Obama denounced the vote
with unusual warmth on Wednesday. “It's an example of why sometimes you have to
do what's hard. And, frankly, I wish Congress here had done what's hard,” Obama
declared. “If you’re perceived as voting against 9/11 families right before an
election, not surprisingly, that's a hard vote for people to take. But it would
have been the right thing to do ... And it was, you know, basically a political
vote.”
“Oh, what a tangled web we
weave,” Sir Walter Scott famously wrote, “When first we practice to deceive!”
As the tangled web of lies surrounding the September 11 attacks continue to
unravel, one senses that the American ruling class and its representatives do
not see a clear way out of the dilemma.
Openly torpedoing the
legislation is tantamount to an admission of guilt. Indeed, the Obama
administration, the military and intelligence agencies, and theNew York Times
are publicly working to cover up a crime perpetrated by Al Qaeda and its
backers in Saudi Arabia, which in turn is an ally of the United States. The
mere fact that Obama vetoed this bill constitutes an admission that the US
government is hiding something with respect to the September 11 attacks.
The alternative, from the
standpoint of the American ruling class, is also fraught with risks. Court
proceedings initiated by the families of September 11 victims will inevitably
expose the role played by the Saudi monarchy, an ally of both Al Qaeda and the
United States, in the September 11 attacks. This, in turn, will highlight long
and sordid history of American support for Islamic fundamentalism in the
Middle East, which continues
to the present day in Syria and Libya.
Perhaps most dangerously of
all, a full public accounting of the roles of Saudi intelligence agents
in the September 11 attacks will once again raise questions about the
role of the American state in the attacks. Why did US intelligence
agencies ignore the activities
of Saudi agents before the attacks, based on Saudi Arabia’s supposed status as
a US ally?
Why did the US government
deliberately cover up the Saudi connection after the fact, instead claiming
that Afghanistan was a “state sponsor of terrorism” and that Iraq was
developing “weapons of mass destruction?” Why was nobody
prosecuted?
The New York Times, for its
part, simply lied about the evidence of Saudi complicity. “The legislation is
motivated by a belief among the 9/11 families that Saudi Arabia played a role
in the attacks, because 15 of the 19 hijackers, who were members of Al Qaeda,
were Saudis,” the editors wrote. “But the independent American commission that
investigated the attacks found no evidence that the Saudi government or senior
Saudi officials financed the terrorists.”
In fact, at least two of the
hijackers received aid from Omar al-Bayoumi, who was identified by the Federal
Bureau of Investigation as a Saudi intelligence agent with “ties to terrorist
elements.” Some of the hijackers were paid for work in fictitious jobs from
companies affiliated with the Saudi Defense Ministry, with which Al-Bayoumi was
in close contact. The night before the attacks, three of the hijackers stayed
at the same hotel as Saleh al-Hussayen, a prominent Saudi government official.
These and other facts were
confirmed by the infamous 28-page suppressed chapter of the 2002 report issued
by the Joint Inquiry into Intelligence Community Activities Before and After
the Terrorist Attacks of September 11, 2001. After 14 years of stalling, the
document was finally released to the public this summer.
Yet the New York Times
continues to describe the Saudi monarchy, the principal financier and sponsor
of Islamic fundamentalist groups throughout the world, as “a partner in
combating terrorism.”
The Justice Against Sponsors
of Terrorism Act, passed Wednesday, is a direct reaction to these revelations
of Saudi complicity in the September 11 attacks, under pressure from
organizations of survivors and families of victims. The law amends the federal
judicial code to allow US courts “to hear cases involving claims against a
foreign state for injuries, death, or damages that occur inside the United
States as a result of. .. an act of terrorism, committed anywhere by a foreign
state or official.”
Although the bill nowhere
names Saudi Arabia, the Saudi government has threatened massive
retaliation, including by moving $750 billion in assets out of the
country before they can be seized in American legal proceedings.
This reaction alone confirms the monarchy’s guilt.
During Wednesday’s session,
many of the statements on the floor of the Senate were nervous and
apprehensive. Casting his vote in favor of the bill, Republican Senator Bob
Corker declared, “I have tremendous concerns about the sovereign immunity
procedures that would be set in place by the countries as a result of this
vote.” More than one legislator noted that if the bill had unintended
consequences, it would be modified or repealed.
The anxious comments of
legislators and the crisscrossing denunciations within the ruling elite reflect
the significance of this controversy for the entire American political
establishment. For 15 years, the American population has been relentlessly told
that the events of September 11, 2001 “changed everything,” warranting the
elimination of democratic rights, the militarization of the police, renditions,
torture, assassinations, totalitarian levels of spying, death and destruction
across the Middle East, and trillions of dollars of expenditures.
The collapse of the official
version of that day’s events shows that American politics for 15 years has been
based on a lie.
The Democrats Embrace Anti-Semitism
Liberals, Democrats, and the
legacy media are forever prattling about how the “toxic rhetoric” of President
Trump before and after his election has inspired a culture of violence
expressed most recently (in their view) in the flurry of packages sent to
leading Democrats containing amateur-night explosive devices some of which
could only explode if you used a real explosive to set them off.
Words do have consequences
and can inspire the unhinged, but nowhere in Trump’s rhetoric are urgings to
build and deliver explosive devices to your political opponents, not even those
who urge their followers to “get in the face” of Republicans in their
congressional offices or favorite eateries.
Despite their constant
references to David Duke in an attempt to paint Trump as racist, Trump did not
seek any political endorsement from the likes of Duke and repudiated it when it
came. His record of black empowerment in terms of rising employment, home
ownership, and small business formation,
reflected in rising black support in the polls, belies the racism accusations.
Following the Democrat’s
own reasoning, one can credibly say by embracingnoted
anti-Semites Louis Farrakhan
and Al Sharpton Democrats have been enablers of the deadly anti-Semitic hate
most recently seen in the horrific
massacre at a synagogue in Pittsburgh:
President Donald Trump
took a pounding at the service for Aretha Franklin. The Rev. Al Sharpton took
Trump to task for supposedly demonstrating a lack of respect by saying, “She
worked for me on numerous occasions.” Other speakers took shots at the
president either by name or by implication for his supposed racism and bigotry.
Onstage, in the front row,
sat Sharpton, Nation of Islam Minister Louis Farrakhan, the Rev. Jesse Jackson
and former President Bill Clinton, all of whom know a thing or two about racism
and bigotry. Their careers depend on exaggerating the extent and the impact of
anti-black white racism.
At a rally in Harlem in
1991, Sharpton said, “If the Jews want to get it on, tell them to pin their
yarmulkes back and come over to my house.” A few days later, a young black boy
was accidentally killed when struck by a car driven by a Hasidic Jew. For three
nights, Jews in Crown Heights were subjected to what one Columbia University
professor called “a modern-day pogrom” in which two people died and almost 200
were injured. On day two of the riots, Sharpton led a march of about 400
protesters in Crown Heights, shouting, “No justice, no peace.” Days later,
Sharpton referred derisively to Jews living in Crown Heights as “diamond
merchants.” A few years later, Sharpton called whites moving businesses into
Harlem “interlopers.”
Sitting next to Sharpton
at Franklin’s funeral was Farrakhan, whose hand Clinton shook. As recently as
February 2018, Farrakhan said: “Jews were responsible for all of this filth and
degenerate behavior that Hollywood is putting out, turning men into women and
women into men. White folks are going down. And Satan is going down. And
Farrakhan, by God’s grace, has pulled the cover off of that Satanic Jew, and
I’m here to say your time is up. Your world is through.”
If you have a picture of
President Trump sitting just a few chairs down from David Duke, posing for a
picture, or shaking his hand, present it to the Trump-deranged liberals and
media. We do have a picture of President
Barack Hussein Obama with the bigot Farrakhan, both with beaming smiles.
Harvard Law Professor and
longtime Democrat Alan Dershowitz said he would not have campaigned for then-
Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) if he knew about the future
president's photo op with Louis Farrakhan.
Farrakhan, leader of the
Nation of Islam, is a "virulent anti-Semite and anti-American,"
Dershowitz said on "Fox & Friends." …
"He has called Judaism
a gutter religion. He is a horrible, horrible human being," he said.
A photographer, Askia
Muhammad, showed Fox News' Tucker Carlson a 2005 picture of Obama and Farrakhan
smiling together.
He said that afterward, the
Congressional Black Caucus contacted him and demanded to have the photo back.
“I gave the original disk to
him and in a sense swore myself to secrecy because I had quietly made a copy
for myself,” Muhammad said.
Muhammad said he thought the
CBC was concerned a photo with Farrakhan could hurt the young senator's future
presidential aspirations.
As it should have. From
Ferguson to Baltimore and beyond, President Obama’s words aiding
and abetting the war on cops and
inciting racial division have been the equivalent of yelling “fire” in a
crowded theatre. He has encouraged a false narrative of racist cops and racist
police departments whose officers are guilty until proven innocent, or buried,
whichever comes first. Never mind in both Baltimore and Ferguson the cops
accused of racism and murder were found guilty of neither.
It was Ferguson, Missouri,
where President Obama’s Justice Department sent
40 FBI agents to prove Officer
Darren Wilson was a racist murderer of an innocent black teen. He made the anti-Semitic,
race-baiting Al Sharpton, who helped
create the myth of “hands up,
don’t shoot”, a key
adviser on race matters and
Ferguson.
Keith Ellison, the
controversial Democratic candidate for Minnesota attorney general, has
had warm
past relations with the nation of Islam and high praise for Louis Farrakhan:
The Minnesota congressman
has written about his support for a separate nation for black people. He has
actively worked with and for the Nation of Islam, which openly and actively
promotes a “blacks only” nation…
Then in 1997, Ellison was a
spokesman for the Nation of Islam using the last name “Muhammad.”
He spoke at a public hearing
in connection with a controversy involving Joanne Jackson of the Minnesota
Initiative Against Racism (MIAR). Jackson was alleged to have said, “Jews are
among the most racist white people I know.” Jackson denied making the statement
or insisted that it had been taken out of context. Ellison appeared before the
MIAR on behalf of the Nation of Islam in defense of Jackson’s alleged
statement. According to the Star
Tribune and the full text of the statement published in the
Minneapolis Spokesman-Recorder,
Ellison said:
We stand by the truth
contained in the remarks attributed to [Ms. Jackson], and by her right to
express her views without sanction. Here is why we support Ms. Jackson: She is
correct about Minister Farrakhan. He is not a racist. He is also not an
anti-Semite. Minister Farrakhan is a tireless public servant of Black people,
who constantly teaches self-reliance and self-examination to the Black
community....
Louis Farrakhan is not a
tireless public servant. He is an anti-Semitic bigot who has been warmly
embraced by the leaders of the Democratic party who now condemn Donald Trump.
As we mourn the tragedy in Pittsburgh, let us remember who the enablers of
such horrific hate have been.

Democrat Corruption is a Clear and Present Danger to America
On November 6, it seemed the Republicans might hold their
majority in the Senate and in the House. Sadly, they lost their
majority in the House. The mystery is why so many Democrat candidates who are
so obviously ethically challenged won in races that should not have even been
close.
How and why do Democrats continue to vote for unqualified,
dishonest candidates? Elizabeth Warren is a proven liar, a cheat who
claimed Native American heritage in order to get a job at
Harvard. Her baby, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, was her
plan to wield control over all bank and non-bank institutions without
Congressional interference. In short, she is a hard-left socialist who
means to control how Americans earn, spend and borrow money, how they use their
savings. Warren is a blight on the Constitution and the guaranteed
freedoms of US citizens. She is an advance operative for the socialist America
the left envisions.
Andrew Gillum, the left's choice to be Governor of Florida, is
the failed mayor of Tallahassee. He remains under FBI investigation for
corruption. Given the information about that investigation that has
been released, he appears yet another greedy and corrupt Democrat pol in the
Hillary Clinton mold. The stability of Tallahassee declined
catastrophically under his leadership; crime and murder rose drastically.
Gillum sold out his city for money, and cries racism when
confronted with his crimes. He should never have been the candidate
for the Governor of Florida but the left cares only about race and power, not
ethics or honor. For progressives, race trumps everything else, even
character. If Gillum wins after the cheating Broward County is
infamous for, Florida will suffer the slings and arrows that are inevitable
under politicians like Gillum. Why was this race even
close? Have half the nation's voters scuttled any semblance
of traditional values in order to win? Yes.
Then there is Robert Menendez, the credibly accused pedophile
senator of New Jersey. He should be in prison but was saved by one
juror in his corruption trial with whom he partied after his win on November
6. Who votes for a man like this? There is plenty of
proof that he took bribes from a wealthy client for numerous favors, trips
to the Dominican Republic for sex with underage girls being one of
them. But New Jersey just re-elected this man. They too
have lost all sense of right vs. wrong.
Stacey Abrams, the still grasping gubernatorial contender in
Georgia, is a hard-left, anti-capitalist, anti-Second Amendment
candidate. She owes about $200K in credit card debt and wants to run
Georgia? She too is corrupt and incompetent. She is also
willing to cheat to win. Are Georgians ignorant of her many, many negatives? If
they are, they voted for her anyway. Again, skin color trumps
everything.
The left ignores fine men like John James, who ran for the House in Michigan
against Debbie Stabenow. The left ignored Eddie
Edwards who ran in New Hampshire. Both
men are conservative African Americans. The American left
today pretends such candidates do not exist. They have ignored fine
people like James and Edwards as they have always ignored brilliant men like
Thomas Sowell, Shelby Steele, Walter Williams, Jason Riley, and Larry
Elder. They revile the brilliant Clarence Thomas. They
don't like to be reminded of men like Frederick Douglass or Booker T. Washington. Neither of
them, like Sowell, Steele, Williams and Elder ever promoted the idea that
African Americans were or would be perennial victims. Each of them
advocated for quite the opposite, for self-reliance and independence.
This notion of personal responsibility is anathema to today's
left; they need and promote subservience and dependency among their flock of
reliable but uninformed voters. This is why they encourage the
immigration of so many millions of illegal migrants. They assume they will be
able to win for them the right to vote. Judging by the number of
them who likely voted in the midterms, their plan is succeeding.
This is how they will destroy America from
within. The leftist billionaires who orchestrate these plans are
extravagantly wealthy. Those tasked with representing us in Congress will never
be exposed to the downside of the invasion of millions of migrants,
the crime or the financial burden. They have nothing but
contempt for those of us who must endure the consequences of our communities
being intruded upon by gang members, drug dealers and human
traffickers. These people have no intention of becoming Americans;
like the Democrats who welcome them, they have contempt for us.
Then there is Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the
thoroughly-ignorant-of-everything candidate who won her district by
80%! This young woman knows nothing about how any government works,
let alone ours. She is hopelessly uniformed; she knows even less
about US history or the Constitution. She is clueless about the economy. When
asked how she would pay for all the give-away programs she touts, she replied
that that was a "puzzling question"! "You just pay for it" she
answers. She has no idea; no idea about anything. She
thinks she will be "inaugurated" to the House! Most fourth
graders know more than she does about US history. And yet she
is already thinking about running for President! This is a
wholesale indictment of our politicized, dumbed-down system of education. Many
of her constituents are immigrants; we are obviously not educating them at
all. They voted for all the free stuff -- college, medical care,
basic income, housing, that Ocasio-Cortez has promised to deliver. This
is what socialist Democrats dream about: perpetual power over a
populace too ignorant to rebel. American as founded is at grave
risk.
In addition to ODasio-Cortez, Gillum, Ilhan
Omar, Abrams, Sinema,
who very likely cheated to
take the Arizona Senate seat, there is Linda Sanchez. Kirsten Gillibrand is a
Hillary clone; she only cares about her own political power. She speaks like a
small child but is also considering a run for the presidency. She
was best pals with Bill Clinton and Harvey Weinstein until they were
politically inconvenient. Amy Klobuchar, who embraced the vicious
and obviously false allegations against Judge Kavanagh, was
re-elected! Like every other Democrat member of the judiciary
committee, she knew those accusations were false, without a shred of
corroboration, but her constituents re-elected her! Who are these
voters? How do they reconcile voting for people willing to destroy a
fine man for political purposes? She is exactly who every Democrat member
of that committee is, who every member of the Democrat Party
is: nothing more than power-hungry political operatives out to ruin
any and all opponents by any means necessary. They are a clear
and present danger to American as founded.
Young people are no longer taught the truth of American
history. They are not taught the truth of the Holocaust. Anti-Semitism is
acceptable, even promoted, by the Democrats. They
embrace Linda Sarsour and Louis
Farrakhan without shame. Young people don't know that communism killed over a
hundred million people in the twentieth century. Their
calculated-by-leftists ignorance is destroying our country. They try
to sell the idea that gender is not a factor of biology! They
attempt to convince young people that climate change is man-made (a travesty)
and that global warming causes wild fires (a lie). Having control
over academia, they have willfully brainwashed students for nearly two
generations. Unless your children are a strong-willed, independent
thinkers, do not send them to college!
How and why the American left has devolved into the kind of
party one finds in a banana republic is a mystery. That our media is
so anxious to promote their corrupt candidates and the low-brow tactics they employ is a
tragedy. Do they do it because they can no longer win by promulgating their
Orwellian vision of a socialist state, mandated equality of
outcome? Perhaps. They will never sell socialism to
enough sentient Americans to win. They need millions of uninformed
voters to succeed.
We must not let them cheat their way to power over the rest of
us. Their ongoing vote fraud must be stopped and the Democrats need
to take a look at themselves and at what they have become. It's not a pretty
picture. What they have become threatens to destroy the greatest
nation on the planet and they are doing it on purpose. They have
nothing but contempt for the US as founded and for those of us who love this
country.
