Top Black Dems to skip Netanyahu speech
The Hill ^ | February 5, 2015 | Mike Lillis

Posted on 02/06/2015 12:57:03 PM PST by yoe

Leading members of the Congressional Black Caucus (CBC) are lining up to skip a coming speech by the prime minister of Israel.

Reps. John Lewis (D-Ga.), the civil rights icon, and G.K. Butterfield (D-N.C.), the chairman of the CBC, said they won't attend Benjamin Netanyahu's March 3 speech before Congress to protest Speaker John Boehner's (R-Ohio) decision to invite the prime minister without first consulting President Obama and Democratic leaders on Capitol Hill.

Butterfield said that move marked an "unprecedented overreach of the Speaker’s authority" that "goes beyond the traditions of his office."

"It is baffling that Speaker Boehner, who incessantly proclaims executive overreach by the president, would buck long standing diplomatic protocol to extend such an invitation," Butterfield said in a statement.

"His actions unnecessarily politicize our steadfast relationship with Israel, and potentially subvert U.S. foreign policy," he added. "The United States is and will remain Israel’s strongest ally. However, I refuse to be a part of a political stunt aimed at undercutting President Obama.”

This a case of militant Black racism.

Well, how refreshing to see black Democrats broadcasting their antisemitism bigotry for all the world to see. Nothing like black racial bigotry writ large. This is obvious to everyone but the Mainstream Media who are OK with Jew hatred. Got it Fourth Estate — Jew hatred is wonderful and good, but listening to PM Benjamin Netanyahu’s address to both Houses of Congress is racist Nazism by Israel. How Islamofascist of you media whores.

The Congressional Black Caucus is one of the most despicable groups you can find.

Ah, John Lewis, the oft-proclaimed “civil rights legend.” Whatever he was in the past, he is now a decadent, stupid, lying jerk.

"African-Americans hate Joos."

And Asians. And whites. And Hispanics. The only people they like are murderous Muslims, which is why they increasingly give their children Muslim or quasi-Muslim names.

"Congressional Black Caucus (CBC) are lining up to skip a coming speech by the prime minister of Israel." How typical of the them: "The following sign was seen on a prominent Democrats desk: “I’ve made up my mind — don’t confuse me with facts.” Now, what could he mean?" http://quoteinvestigator.com/2013/02/13/confuse-me/ 1954 March 10, Daily Sitka Sentinel, Veatchcombing, Page 1, Column 1, Sitka, Alaska.

God hates those who hate His people. Black people should know this. Those who think racial solidarity is more important than solidarity with God will learn a painful lesson, I fear.

Oh, I don’t know, I was always thought the Southern Poverty Law Center could eat more watermelon and fried chicken as long as someone else was paying for.
Interesting headline at Legal Insurrection:

Now present day black “leaders” have turned against Jews out of malice and ignorance.

Yes they have and Lewis Farrakhan along with other American Imams have successfully corrupted the plantation negro into becoming Muslims even more forcible to obedience under the thumb of some overseer who uses the Negro to do whatever........

It’s do or die, to show weakness in the face of the anti-semitic backlash of the CPUSA would be suicidal on the orange mans part.

All the communists are doing is identifying themselves.

Communists are not particularly bright.

Amin Al Husseini seen inspecting his Hanzar Division made up exclusively of Muslims, mostly from the Crotia/Bosnia/Serbia region. They actively lead the genocide against Serbs, Serbian Jews and Gypsies.

Amin Al Husseini meets with Adolf Hitler in November 1942, weeks before the decision to implement the Final Solution which sent Europe's Jews to the gas chamber. The Third Reich provided Amin Al Husseini with a salary and appointed him Head of the Hanzar SS Division. The Hanzar Division was made of Nazi Muslims and implemented the genocide of 250,000 Serbs, Gypsies and Jews during WWII.

Amin Al Husseini shown here on a Nazi poster recruiting fellow Muslims to join Hitler in the fight against the West and the Jews. His disciples today include Yasser Arafat, Saddam Hussein and the leaders of Hamas, Al Qeida and Islamic Jihad.

Amin Al Husseini, future President of the World Islamic Congress (1961) and founding father of the Arab League (1944) inspects his Muslim Nazi troops, the Hanzar Division. Amin Al Husseini making the traditional nazi salute.

Yasser Arafat became a disciple of Amin Al Husseini since the age of 17. Here: recent picture of Palestinian soldiers under the leadership of Arafat making the traditional Nazi salute.

What is almost the most amazing part of this whole story is that Boehner hasn’t folded.

You're right... good for Boehner...

“unprecedented overreach of the Speaker’s authority”

He doesn’t know the proper meaning of at least one of those words.

Which is kind of ironic, since the Arabs who gave the world Islam were also the first foreign slavers of the African Black, even into the modern era.
