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.

Morsi has justified his hate based on a fiction dictated by his world view and made false claims that are unchallenged in the report.

The only moral countries in the world on November 29, 2012. Kudos to Canada, The Czech Republic, Marshall Islands, Micronesia, Nauru, Palau, Panama & the USA

US, Canada, Israel, Czech Rep, Panama, Palau, Marshall Islands, Nauru, Micronesia are the only moral countries that voted against rewarding the terrorism of the PLO and against stripping away all Jewish holy sites from Israel.

Other than the victim Israel, these are the only 8 countries in the world to exhibit moral courage and not reward a total abrogation of the Oslo accord by the PLO. They voted” no” to the establishment of yet another radical theocratic Muslim state on the core historic Jewish heartland that includes the only sites holy to Judaism – the Temple Mount and Western Wall, Cave of the Patriarchs in Hebron, Rachel’s Tomb in Bethelehem and Joseph’s Tomb in Schechem. They voted “no” to giving a state to a fictitious people only created in 1964, and repeatedly admitted by Arab leaders to simply be a tool to eradicate Israel.

Please consider sending a message of thanks to the following representatives for their clear sighted and moral support of freedom, truth and Israel.

An open letter to the Jews of America and to all good democrats everywhere

My friends, I realize that this is late, and that this is a long essay reaching as it does into history, ethics, domestic policy, foreign policy and economics. I also realise that you have probably already made up your mind as to your vote in the US presidential election. But if not now, then when? You may also resent a non-American presuming to give you advice on voting in America. If this is true, then nothing I write below will reach you. But I feel that I must try, because the stakes are too high for the democracies of this planet.

This is an election that is critical not only to the future of America, but to the future of the Free World. Even more, this election is absolutely critical to the state of Israel and to the entire future of the Jewish people.

Thus, before you cast your vote on Tuesday, just consider if you believe you would have the same rights and opportunities in the US without the existence of the state of Israel? If you believe you would, then just ask your grandparents and parents what life was like for Jews before Israel’s rebirth. Even ask them what life was like before 1967.

Do you trust the future of the Jewish people to BHObama?

Do you trust BHObama to ensure the ability of Jews to pray at the Kotel (Western Wall of the Second Temple), the Cave of the Patriarchs in Hebron, the tomb of the Matriarch Rachel, Joseph’s tomb? If those names and places mean nothing to you, other than ancient myths, and yet you believe in the modern myth of BHObama’s economic and foreign policies, then go ahead and vote for him.

Vote for a man who believes that the 1949 armstice lines, established when 7 Arab armies invaded the 600,000 Jews of Israel and slaughtered 1% of them just 3 years after the Holocaust ended, should be the line that determine where a Judenrein region of Judea and Samaria should begin..

Do you trust BHObama when he says he will not allow Iran to obtain nuclear weapons? Do you believe he is not being cute, because although he will not say that he won't let Iran gain the ability to develop nuclear weapons, he actually means both things?

Not only that, why are his minions despatched around the globe to disparage Israel's deterrence capability? Why would he threaten Israel’s leaders against a pre-emptive attack that would try to stave off another Holocaust? Yet Iran’s leaders already deny the Holocaust committed via Nazi Germany and friends, whilst they still promise another as soon as they can enact it. BHObama's action are not those of a friend, they are not even the actions of a neutral.

At a time, when the Jewish people are again faced with the threat of 6 million Jews being exterminated, and nevertheless 120 non-aligned countries turn up in Tehran in spite of BHObama’s vaunted sanctions, the president of the USA decided to denigrate and humiliate the Prime Minister of Israel. Still he found time for late night chat shows. Nonetheless, funds and welcomes are showered on the leaders of the nazi-inspired, and initially sponsored, Muslim Brotherhood.

I have heard many things directly from people who have met BHObama, primarily as the 2008 candidate. One tale in particular stuck out (although there is one story I cannot repeat because I don't have permission to breach a confidence that involves a direct meeting with BHObama and which would shake any supporter of Israel).

BHObama was in Gilo (which is a South Western suburb of Jerusalem although BHObama ignoring the compass, declared it to be East Jerusalem with the loaded political baggage that entails) and we both stood at the same spot, being shown the same things by the same guide. We both looked up and saw the pock marks of bullets fired at civilians in the Jerusalem stone of residential apartments, and the bullet proof shutters required by the inhabitants that overlooked a beautiful valley. Israel had finally constructed a part of the security fence in the middle of the valley to try to protect the civilians. BHObama’s immediate comment was that this was purely a land grab. He ignored the evidence of the terrorist bullets, 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 Jewish owned land was a "land grab" by Jews.

When I was born, Jews were not allowed to visit the Kotel. Jews could pay some nuns and they may then be allowed to climb a tower and have a look at the Kotel in the distance. BHObama’s pressure on Israel is to relinquish all areas of Israel that resonate with Jewish history, and be left with an indefensible 9 mile waist. If re-elected that pressure will be all but irresistable. Israel will be abandoned on the world stage by the USA, possibly left with only Canada as a friend.  

Not only this, but if you actually know the history of the area, you will know that the deliverance of another swath of the Middle East to create yet another modern Arab country that has never existed in history, is based on fictions. But that may be irrelevant to your sensibilities.

You should be able to guess where my thoughts are going. Let me say that voting for BHObama is not a treacherous thing for an American to do in terms of the American people, it may be damaging to them, but it is not treacherous.  But voting for BHObama is a treacherous thing for a Jew to do in terms of the Jewish people.

I have lived many years in both Europe and North America, and I simply don’t panic. Yet, I have seen the demise of European Jewry to approximately one million souls, but bullied and harassed souls, turned into frightened shells of communities protected by barbed wire, closed circuit cameras, defended by young Jews, tombstones laid flat so that they cannot be desecrated and windows that cannot be opened in schools or synagogues. This, less than 70 years after a third of the Jewish people were wiped out on that continent, and where today, Jews fear to defend Israel in polite company at schools, universities, the office, golf clubs (if let in), the media; as Israel yet defends its citizens from theocratic terrorists who rain missiles upon civilians. The modern day blood libel of apartheid is stuck on the backs of all Jews who are not turncoats to their history, and as with the Nazis, boycotts of products of the Jewish homeland are promoted to punish Jews. This is what you are facing too if you re-elect a leader who wants to lead you down a European track of supposed sophistry and entitlement.

Perhaps your vote will ignore the above and simply be in pursuit of social justice, and for some reason in the US, the right of women to have government funded abortion on demand seems especially critical. But have you looked at the Democratic Party recently? Just like the Liberal Democrats in the UK and the National Democratic Party in Canada, it has morphed into a collection of radical causes that have found a political home. It’s not a focused party any more, just a wave of tearing down morals that have existed.

Personally, I don’t have a firm conclusion on abortion but I do know that a large number of my UK colleagues used abortion as their form of contraception, and that cannot be good on any level for any party. Yet, there are the obvious cases where abortion is not just warranted, but required, and sadly in the UK, there are still too many children being born into the treadmill of poverty and social welfare.

The fact is, those women who want abortions will continue to be able to get them whoever is in power, no matter what you are being told by mendacious attack ads. Abortion is not a reason to vote for BHObama.

Social Justice? Quickly research the lobby groups at the Democratic National Convention. I am not going to direct you to those groups, simply look at them and see if they truly represent values you wish to dominate your country.

Economy? Well, I remember Ronald Reagan facing a terrible economic climate, but I don’t recall him continually blaming Carter and he began to turn things around almost immediately. Reagan didn’t continue to dig so deep that, even now, I have no clue how the USA is going to get out of the exponentially devastating $16 Trillion debt hole. I do believe in universal health care, but as King Solomon allegedly said, there is a time for everything. In the worst global recession in 80 years, that is not the time to restructure a sixth of the economy under government controls. “Stimulus” is simply illogical, and deters the private sector from competing with a government that can abuse its own laws and rules, as it did with the secured lenders of the auto companies.

You don't get the ability to promote a viable social justice program without a functioning economy. An economy that simply borrows without the ability to pay the debt, is not a functioning economy.

So, I see no reason on domestic policy to vote for Obama.

But Jews need to go back to what Israel will face during another 4 years of BHObama rule. Iran will develop nuclear arms capability. No ifs, no buts.

Will Iran attack? Possibly not immediately, but they are governed by brutal theocratic tyranny led by people who believe in an apocalyptic vision that involves initiating a world war to inspire the return of the 12th hidden Mahdi. Iran is the biggest sponsor of terrorism across the globe, on every continent and who knows where a weapon may one day emerge? Iran’s soldiers are currently slaughtering Syrians, and aiding their puppet Assad. Do you think they will care more about the lives of duplicitous apes and pigs, as Jews are described in the Koran? It is merely a matter of time before they deploy a nuclear arsenal.

Even after a nuclear attack by Iran, probably via Hezbollah to provide plausible deniability, then being pummelled by the tens of thousands of missiles prepared under the “watch” of UN forces in Lebanon, and from Gaza, and possibly attacks now from Egypt, Israel will survive in some form. However, it will once again be at the cost of 1 in 3 of the approximately 12 million Jews left in the world. Jews did not recover to the pre-Holocaust number of 18 million even after the best 70 years in 1,800 years of Jewish history. What chance is there of a real future if the numbers are reduced once more and the homeland left as a radioactive pool? 

Let’s leave some final words to Tevye  of Fiddler on the Roof fame, as he reflects on the decision you must make. Most American Jews will at least be aware of Tevye and his torments. Let him guide you.

How can I turn my back on my faith
My people
If I try and bend that far
I will break

On the other hand
No! There is no other hand

Given his actions to date and speeches around the world, I ask you again. 

Do you really trust BHObama with the future of the Jewish people?

RTFQ: Obama, Benghazi, videos and root causes of Muslim violence

As analysts pontificated on the so called root causes of current global Muslim violence, I recalled the wise advice drilled into me when studying for examinations; RTFQ.  The best way to reach a valid answer is to first understand what is actually being asked by proceeding to “Read The F****** Question”. In these violent instances, the advice remains valid and should also be RTFQ. I recommend everyone “Read The Quran” and the root causes will be apparent.
