White House Sends ‘Islamophobia’ Fighter Eric Holder To Paris
Daily Caller ^ | January 8, 2015 | PATRICK HOWLEY

Posted on 01/09/2015 12:25:53 PM PST by maggief

Attorney General Eric Holder is flying off to Paris this weekend for a meeting with the French Minister of Interior in the aftermath of a violent terrorist attack in which 12 people were killed and 11 wounded at the Paris magazine Charlie Hebdo, which printed cartoons of the prophet Muhammad.

Holder, who will meet with French officials on counter-terrorism, is a big opponent of “Islamophobia” against Muslims.

“There can be no ‘us’ or ‘them’ among Americans,” Holder said at a 2010 dinner held by the California-based group Muslim Advocates. “And I believe that law enforcement has an obligation to ensure that members of every religious community enjoy the ability to worship and to practice their faith in peace, free from intimidation, violence or suspicion. That is the right of all Americans. And it must be a reality for every citizen.”

“We have also strengthened efforts to prevent and combat hate crimes — and to protect American Muslims from acts of violence and discrimination,” Holder said.

I still think he won’t leave AG job until the regime is in the clear, that’s when there won’t be enough time to prosecute them.

Sending Holder to France to fight jihadists is like the French sending Marshall Petain to fight the Germans, IN WW2.

If you don’t know this part of French history, either get a book or Google it.

What if an Islamist terrorist bagged Holder with a suicide bomb? How would Odumbo spin that? Oops, the Religion of Peace is having a hissy fit?

Can’t be.

Only renegade cowboys like George W. Bush come stomping into town trying to tell other countries how to go about their business. /SARCsarcsarcsarc

I propose that islamophobia is a sign of mental health and a realistic outlook on life.

Are there members of other cults who are trying to kill us for not being members of their cult?

I didn’t think so.

The woman who will replace Holder appears acceptable to the new senate.
We’ll see when she’s approved.

Perhaps they’ll open up a Fast ‘n Furious Firearm dealership for the poor welfare-addicted victims of Islamophobia.

Sending a Black Muslim to talk to....just who again? Anyone else he needs to meet with from the cells over there? Greetings from Obama and Farrakhan?

“We have also strengthened efforts to prevent and combat hate crimes — and to protect American Muslims from acts of violence and discrimination,” Holder said.

I'd like to see the two lists... Muslims in American killed by American citizens expressing 'hate'.... AND the other list - of American citizens killed by Muslims...

Yes, I also thought he had resigned. Apparently not. The only positive I see in this is that he’s out of the country.

This is a most useless meeting. An advocate for Muslims talking about Islamic violence.

“Attorney General Eric Holder is flying off to Paris...”

Hope his plane crashes.Better yet, hope his plane lands safely and the French hang this racist Nazi pig from a lamppost.
