The West’s proxy war against the Jews
Jerusalem Post ^ | Caroline Glick

It was a stunning moment of moral clarity. As the South Vietnamese refugees clambered onto rickety boats in the South China Sea to escape the victorious Communists, the American Left that orchestrated the US defeat through a sustained campaign of propaganda and fake calls for peace stood silent.

As Pol Pot, the “progressive” dictator tortured and murdered a third of his people in Cambodia, the leftists “peace” activists in the US and Europe who never saw a US military operation that was justified, turned a blind eye. The silence of the likes of Susan Sontag, Jane Fonda, Noam Chomsky and their fellow travelers came to mind last week when the Western media and intellectual elites averted their gaze as Sheikh Yusuf Qaradawi, the long exiled spiritual guide of the Muslim Brotherhood spoke before a crowd of millions at Cairo’s Tahrir Square.

It will be interesting to see how much political support Obama will get from American Jews this time around.

When the question of Obama’s allegiance to Islam comes up in the 2012 elections, his Republican opponents should make much of the circumstantial evidence:
the alleged remark to Egyptian ambassador that he is a Muslim, his strange inability to prosecute terrorists in American justice system, his policies of building mosques with US taxpayers’ dollars; the list goes on. I'd love to see this brought up in national debates and the pubbie candidate need not make a direct accusation, just bring up the circumstances and challenge Zero to explain.

Excellent article; thank you.

Glick is a very thoughtful and informed writer. I very much enjoy her articles ever since she was embedded with our troops during invasion of Iraq. She was one of the few reporters who was unapologetically positive about our troops.

These folks all won bigtime when the world's governments paid off their phoney derivatives losses, which were purchased as naked shorts with no money down. If the carbon credit markets had gone operational the same people would have won out.

Suddenly, blaming 'the West' when a criminal financial cabal operating out of Tel Aviv & London is caught orchestrating the crash of the world's markets makes this all laughable.
