One of Barack Obama’s Middle East policy advisers disclosed yesterday that he had held meetings with the militant Palestinian group Hamas – prompting the likely Democratic nominee to sever all links with him.
Robert Malley told The Times that he had been in regular contact with Hamas, which controls Gaza and is listed by the US State Department as a terrorist organisation. Such talks, he stressed, were related to his work for a conflict resolution think-tank and had no connection with his position on Mr Obama’s Middle East advisory council.
“I’ve never hidden the fact that in my job with the International Crisis Group I meet all kinds of people,” he added.
Ben LaBolt, a spokesman for Mr Obama, responded swiftly: “Rob Malley has, like hundreds of other experts, provided informal advice to the campaign in the past. He has no formal role in the campaign and he will not play any role in the future.” The rapid departure of Mr Malley followed 48 hours of heated clashes between John McCain, the Republican nominee-elect, and Mr Obama over Middle East policy.
(Snip)
Randy Scheunemann, Mr McCain’s foreign policy chief, suggested that Mr Malley was part of an emerging pattern in which other advisers had been repudiated after throwing confusion over policies on trade and Iraq. “Perhaps because of his inexperience Senator Obama surrounds himself with advisers that contradict his stated policies,” he said.

If Obama is elected I’ll take it as a sign that God intends to make us suffer for our transgressions and severely too.
Obama sacks a guy for doing what he (Obama) has said he would do as President.

Malley’s Arafat Connection
While Robert Malley’s past history might seem typical for a bright young man pursuing a senior Middle East policy position in a future Democratic administration, digging a little deeper reveals something quite untypical in his past. Robert Malley grew up in France, where his Egyptian-born father, Simon Malley, and New York raised mother, Barbara (Silverstein) Malley, were radical publishers of a controversial magazine about Africa and the so-called Third World. Malley’s parents were rabidly anti-Israel and counted Yasir Arafat as a personal friend. Indeed, Arafat was among those “leaders” (for want of a better word) who intervened with the French government to readmit the Malley family to France after they had been expelled for their radical activities.
That is, while in the Clinton administration Malley dealt directly with Palestinian matters, and with Yasir Arafat himself, despite having a huge and hidden conflict of interest: close ties between his family and Yasir Arafat.
Well, hidden from the public – when questioned about it in 2001, Dennis Ross, Clinton’s senior Middle East adviser, said that the Clinton administration knew all about Malley’s past.
While CAMERA did not publish all the facts at the time, we did mention the ties between Malley and Arafat in an article in 2005.
But now, with Malley possibly a Middle East advisor to a major presidential candidate, it seems the full story should be exposed. I will try to minimize repetition of what others have recently published on this subject, while still laying out the facts in a coherent way.
I think it's more liberalism and no.
Damn. I thought that privately sharing tea-time with the bad guys was illegal.
There is no such thing as "treason" in America anymore. One proof of that is we nearly elected a traitor for President in 04.
:-(
Point taken.
If it were Nancy Pelooser would be in jail.
Both Obama and Malley clearly violated the Logan Act. Both should be prosecuted and tossed in the federal Greybar Hotel.
§ 953. Private correspondence with foreign governments.
Any citizen of the United States, wherever he may be, who, without authority of the United States, directly or indirectly commences or carries on any correspondence or intercourse with any foreign government or any officer or agent thereof, with intent to influence the measures or conduct of any foreign government or of any officer or agent thereof, in relation to any disputes or controversies with the United States, or to defeat the measures of the United States, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than three years, or both.
This section shall not abridge the right of a citizen to apply himself, or his agent, to any foreign government, or the agents thereof, for redress of any injury which he may have sustained from such government or any of its agents or subjects.

Better start looking busy.
One can hope that GWB will take a principled stand ... for a change.
Bookmarked and thanks!
It IS Illegal, but unless Obama is elected, I don’t see this guy leaving London anytime soon.
Besides, why would we start prosecuting traitors NOW, anyway, after all that has happened?
Re: “If Obama is elected President, not even GOD will be able to save us..”
Obama’s pastor doesn’t want God to save us, he wants God to damn us.
If he associates with them, full knowing their backgrounds, no way should he ever see the inside of the Oval Office.
If he is/was unaware of their backgrounds - he isn't/wasn't, but just for arguments sake - then he is too naive, ignorant, inexperienced to ever be let into the Oval Office ...no middle ground here
There are more reds and islamofascists under Obama’s tent. It is just a matter of time before they are exposed.
Trust me!
What the hell are you talking about? The liberal traitors have been doing this crap for years. That is the face of the Democrat party.....and take a good look who they want to be president, a Muslim Militant and Communist Clinton.
Nice. A paper in London which is so far away that they can’t see West Virginia because the curvature of the Earth gets in the way covers the story, but the MSM in our own country will ignore it.
Good point Eric!
Do you really believe that they care? Obama is a friend of the Nation of Islam. The Nation of Islam hates the Jewish people. One thing that people don’t seem to realize.....Jews are different, Christians are different, everyone is different, but...........the Nation of Islam will never accept that they are not better than anyone else. Their leaders have them totally convinced of this. One day.....the rest of our country will wake up.
They are killing us, literally.
ENEMY WITHIN! GAH!Q!!!!@!#*(^$()&%!$_
This comes out after Obama critized John McCain as loosing his sense of direction in his campaign for responding to the question, asked by an Obama supporter, what he thought about the statement from Hamas that they prefer Obama to win the presidency.
It looks like Obama was trying to deflect the issue onto McCain, but it didn’t really work. McCain refused to bite. All he said was that I guess we know who Hamas favors.
So true.
Yeah....but will the “reds and islamofascists under Obama’s tent” be exposed widely? And who will care?
A foreign policy adviser to Senator Obama is scheduled to arrive in Syria today as the leader of a RAND Corp. delegation.
Zbigniew Brzezinski will travel to Damascus for meetings as part of a trip Syria's official Cham News agency described as an "important sign that the end of official dialogue between Washington and Damascus has not prevented dialogue with important American intellectuals and politicians."

Re the Logan Act. It is nice in theory but the government has always been afraid to prosecute anyone under it. Jane Fonda and Tom Hayden, David Dellinger and John Fu*king Kerry, Jimmy Carter, and Sen. Ted Kennedy would have been prosecuted and shot if we had a government that had any balls.
Ask John Kerry who paid his way to Paris to meet with the No. Vietnamese communists. The same for Bill Clinton in Moscow. And Ted Kennedy thru the idiot Sen. John Tunney, to the KGB in Moscow (Paul Kengor, “frontpagemagazine.com). The list would take up this whole website if the truth ever becomes known.
There is more to this and hopefully some documents will be coming out this year which will add to this discussion.
This election is going to get real nasty. The Democrats are in full force trying to cram this militant into the White House.
We have so many trolls this year trying to convince us to stay home and not vote and let this militant win. They are clueless to what this creep can do to our country.
Only voters can take them out. And until we clear the colleges from
the seditious preachings we'll have to wait for another generation.
I got an interesting you tube video about Obama and I am not sure how to post a link for that on this site. I sent it to my cousin who is a liberal..her whole family is..she sent a swift message back to the effect that this did it for her..unless Hillary is the dems nominee, she is going for McCain.
If Obama wind the WH it will be due to people who just do not pay attention or who have their heads in the sand where this guy is concerned. Even that idiot Alan Comes is a Hillary supporter but still defends this Obama.
It’s interesting that this came out on a Friday night in a foreign paper — suggesting the DBM in this country spiked the story. I hope the fact that it came out in a Murdoch paper means it will get a ton of play on Fox News Channel and particularly on Fox News Sunday. In spite of liberal mythology both lean too far to the left for my tastes, but they’re the best outlets to make some noise about this and force Bush’s hand. I’ve already dashed off a note to my RINO Congresscreep, not that it will do any good.
Should this not apply to the Speaker of the HOuse, Nancy Pelosi?
Oh move on nothing to see here. Nevermind that they all have endorsed me...move along nothing to see.
Makes one wonder what might happen on Inauguration Day if either the Hildebeast or The Muslim are fraudulently installed by a wave of illegal voters and their friends in the MSM. Given that scenario I’d say there’s a very good chance that those of us who’ve had enough of “progressivism” over the last 40 years will do whatever it takes to restore the Republic as the Founders intended it.
Yup just as my tagline predicts :)
now thats the black calling the kettle pot....
I’d prefer prison jump suits.
I posted the link and it came up oddly so I asked it be removed....I’m, hopeless with this kind of thing...please forgive..
If Obama is elected President, God will have allowed him to be in that position. Most likely, for His judgment to begin on our shores - something we do deserve for even allowing clowns such as Hillary, Obama, and McCain to even be in the running.
...and to Jimmy Carter, Bill Richardson, Hildebeast, Ted Kennedy, Jesse Jackson, et al.

Don't let the BS snake oil salesman get away with making the Jewish vote believe he gives a damn for them...after the election he'll cozy up to the Palestinians once again!!!
Obama sacks a guy for doing what he (Obama) has said he would do as President.
Well, he was fired for being caught, which was certainly a reasonable thing for Obama to do.
"Chittum starts out by asking the reader to figure out which "tier" you belong to in the new order. If you are a member of the white working class you will immediatly understand what Chittum means. The "International Bureaucratic Elite" are the ones destroying America and creating an empire for their own purposes,power and greed. To do this the white working class must be degraded to third class citizens. This will be done through "racist affimative action",politcal correctness, and outright tyranny. Since whites are the economic and racial backbone of America, they must go."
One muslim sacking another just so the wolf can continue on.
