Candidate B H Obama's previous visit to Israel

I have previously blogged on this but it bears repeating today. When BHObama was initially a candidate for the US presidency he visited Israel. He went to Gilo, a South Western suburb of Jerusalem, although BHObama ignored the map and compass, and declared it to be East Jerusalem.

Anyhow, we both stood at the same spot, him in 2008 and me in 2010, being shown the same things by the same guide. The guide advised to look up, just as Candidate BHObama had done, and I saw the pock marks of bullets fired at civilians etched in the Jerusalem stone of residential apartments and the bullet proof shutters required by the inhabitants that overlooked a beautiful valley. The shutters had to be kept closed for protection. The valley sits between Gilo and Beit Jala, which was a village used as a firing point for snipers and mortar bombardment by non-resident Fatah terror operatives (a.k.a. "peace partners") against the civilians of Gilo. Israel had belatedly constructed a part of a security fence in the middle of the valley to try to protect the civilians.  BHObama’s immediate comment to the guide was that this was purely a "land grab" by Israel. He ignored the evidence of the terrorist bullets, he ignored the location of the fence being central, he ignored the fact that this was Jewish owned land before the British trained and commanded Arab Legion of TransJordan had captured the area in 1948 and ethnically cleansed it of Jews.

Somehow, BHObama’s default position was that this defensive measure against terrorist activity on Jewish owned land was a "land grab" by Jews.

This is his ideological mindset and he cannot be trusted with the future of the Jewish people.

Hopefully - Pope Andres Rodriguez Maradiaga of Honduras

Alan Dershowitz recently warned that a virulent anti-Semite was on the short list to become next pope.

In spite of Alan Dershowitz’s warning to the Catholic church, I would like Cardinal Andres Rodriguez Maradiaga of Honduras to be appointed the next Pope. This is not in spite of, but rather because of, his history of hateful anti-Semitic statements and actions. Anti-semites and ethno-racists who stand behind their hate can be more easily thwarted in their schemes than those who slither around professing their good intentions whilst doing harm.

Those who have to loudly proclaim that they are your friends, and that they have your back, are those least likely to be your friends or to have your back, unless it is to stab you in it. Some may even actually believe they are doing you a favour to save you from yourself, but those are the ones who do you most damage.

Whilst I hold Professor Dershowitz in high regard for his often lonely efforts against falsehood and hatred, my respectful advice to him is that he would be better placed looking over his shoulder before he has to exclaim “et tu, Barack”.

Morsi justifies his anti-Semitic tirades and the US buys it

Reading the justification accepted by the US for the anti-semitic tirades by Egypt’s president Morsi, it seems like Lewis Carroll could have included the excuse in Alice Through the Looking Glass as logic was lacking.  

 

It was reported that “both sides… want to get beyond the gap”? The "gap" is a record of Morsi's more virulent sub-medieval anti-Semitic rants and the "both sides" in this case actually refer to Morsi and the US, represented by the visiting John McCain (who I actually do admire). However, it was not the US who was party to Morsi’s vile ethno-racism, so by ignoring the actual victim of the slander and moving on, the US is accepting Morsi had a legitimate, though disagreeable, point.

And I bet they both "want to get beyond the gap" because Egypt’s dire economy needs US funding to feed its population and Obama’s administration wants to give funds from the US’s dire economy to Morsi’s Muslim Brotherhood government.   There should be no "get out of jail free" card for Morsi’s coarse, base, ignorant and vile hatred.

Unlike Morsi, I have never been a member or supporter of a nazi inspired organization, such as the Muslim Brotherhood. Nonetheless, if I ranted that all Muslims or Egyptians are diseased bloodsucking pigs and apes, I would rightly be considered persona non grata with John McCain, and of course with Barack Hussein Obama and the US State department, even if I explained that this was just a comment on Egypt's economic policies and its policy of supporting jihadi terrorists and not really a statement pertaining to all Muslims. Morsi has justified his hate based on a fiction dictated by his world view and he made false claims that were unchallenged in the media reports. Morsi even asserted that Israel, the victim of over 12,000 missile attacks from Gaza, a place that Israel itself ethnically cleansed of Jews, should take no action against the terrorists and their supporters there.

 

Whilst Mali and Algeria burn, the US turned a blind eye to the one resurgent age-old hatred now acceptable in Western polite society, and seeks to funnel billions of dollars to the promoter and terrorist enabler of such evil.

The current political cowardice of BHObama administration and the lamentable US foreign policy are a sore sight for democratic eyes.
