Why Doesn't Obama Bash Mahmoud Abbas For Holocaust Denial?
MEMRI/The Lid ^ | 5/6/09 | The Lid

President Obama seemed visibly moved during his trip to Buchenwald the other day.

"More than half a century later, our grief and our outrage over what happened have not diminished." Obama said after witnessing the crematory ovens, barbed-wire fences, guard towers and the clock set at 3:15, marking the moment of the camp's liberation by the U.S. Army in the afternoon of April 11, 1945. To this day, there are those who insist the Holocaust never happened," Obama said. "This place is the ultimate rebuke to such thoughts, a reminder of our duty to confront those who would tell lies about our history."

Most reporters saw that statement as a shot at Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, a holocaust denier. And its hard not to be pleased at the President's message. It would have been a much stronger comment however, if he put Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas in the same category as Ahmadinejad. Abbas wrote a doctoral dissertation about how the Holocaust was exaggerated and how the Zionists worked with the Nazi to kill all of those Jews so they could steal the Muslim land:

Didn’t he do that to Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, already, for him saying that about the Holocaust?

Well, talk is cheap, Barack.

If he’s moved by the sight of holocaust camps, and says we need to confront those who deny this history, his number one target can be Ahmadineajead (sp?). That guy has had seminars on the subject of holocaust denial, in addition to his public statements.

And to think that a guy with a mind like that is in charge of a large nation, and has or is developing nukes. It’s a dangerous world, Barack.

Why doesn't Barack Hussein Obama base Mahmoud Abbas for being a Holcaust denier?

The answer is simple once you know BHO's real name: Barack Rodney Hussein King Obama. The motto on his coat of arms is: Everyone should like me, they should really, really like me...as long as I avoid confrontation.

I don’t care how “moved” he was yesterday, who wouldn’t be? The point is he got up there in Cairo and equated the Holocaust with the plight of the Palestinians. Did Israel build hundreds of ovens that we haven’t heard about? Disgusting. Wake the hell up Jewish voters!

Don’t let him fool you, he is a better actor than President.

What a dumb question. READ some of the posts around here, will ya? And then wander on over to The Obama File.

Sheesh, I have no patience for the galactically stupid.
