RED ALERT - Tip: Two quotes from the Obama-Khalidi videotape

You know the videotape that shows Barack Obama toasting PLO terrorist Rashid Khalidi? The one that the Los Angeles Times refuses to release?

"The Los Angeles Times did not publish the videotape because it was provided to us by a confidential source who did so on the condition that we not release it," said the newspaper's editor, Russ Stanton...

How frickin' stupid do they think we are? Someone gave the Times a videotape so it wouldn't be released? And they can't publish a transcript?

I guess that's the kind of executive talent the newspaper business is attracting these days.

However, I received a tip from a person who has provided useful, accurate and unique data from LA before (e.g., "All six of CNN's 'undecided voters' were Democratic operatives"). Take it for what it's worth, but I believe this person is on target.

Saw a clip from the tape. Reason we can't release it is because statements Obama said to rile audience up during toast. He congratulates Khalidi for his work saying "Israel has no God-given right to occupy Palestine" plus there's been "genocide against the Palestinian people by Israelis."

It would be really controversial if it got out. Tha's why they will not even let a transcript get out.

Yep, I guess that would do it.

Send THIS AROUND to my fellow Jews....

Maybe PRE WWII Germany MIGHT pop into their thick skulls...

McCain-Palin need to publicly ask Obama and his campaign to join them in demanding that the L.A. Times release the videoptape for if there is nothing to hide the public interest overrides any purported source confidentiality; lord knows that if the shoe were on the other foot, it would be the public interest the L.A. Times would point to in overriding source confidentiality. Such an approach would seemingly put Nobama Campaign on the sport and on the defensive. Thoughts?

If you want something to be released about a leftist, especially Prince of Hades Obama, the Los Angeles Times would be the last place you would give it to - well, them and the New York Times, CNN, MSNBC, ABC, CBS or well you know the list.

JEWISH GROUPS need to protest and do whatever they can to make the LAT release this video.

"The Tape" that could ruin a Presidential election! If true - it's the stuff for super-drama movies.

I hope there are 'black-helicopter' types attempting a 'stealth operation' to find and reveal this tape before election day.

Also, Obama is wearing a t-shirt that says, “Stick it to Mr. Whitey!” and has cocaine under his nose and is obviously twitchy. Michelle, seated beside him, is wearing a palestinian scarf and a Che beret with a red star on it. (OK I just made that up but if the LA Times doesn’t release the video, I can make up what ever I want!)

Where is Meyer Lansky when you need him?

How frickin' stupid do they think we are? Someone gave the Times a videotape so it wouldn't be released? And they can't publish a transcript?

Exactly!

Everyone at the dinner could see there was a camcorder running.

The L.A. Times admits it has a copy of the video.

Selected facts about the event have already been published by the Times.

So how could there stell be any anonymity left to be protected?

It sickens me to think that this execrable creature has the even a remote chance to be the next President. I mourn for the country of my youth.

Is it possible that Joe Biden gave his long winded security warning (no gaffe there)...and his comments about the taxable income being $150k....because he suspects there is a problem with his running mate?

[Lonesome in Massachussets]

To paraphrase Ed Koch, any Jew who votes for Obama ought to have his head examined.

I don’t know if this has been posted some where or not:

In bringing professor Khalidi to Morningside Heights from the University of Chicago, Columbia also got itself a twofer of Palestinian activism and advocacy. Mr. Khalidi’s wife, Mona, who also served in Beirut as chief editor of the English section of the WAFA press agency, was hired as dean of foreign students at Columbia’s SIPA, working under Dean Anderson. In Chicago, the Khalidis founded the Arab American Action Network, and Mona Khalidi served as its president. A big farewell dinner was held in their honor by AAAN with a commemorative book filled with testimonials from their friends and political allies. These included the left wing anti-war group Not In My Name, the Electronic Intifada, and the ex-Weatherman domestic terrorists Bernadine Dohrn and Bill Ayers. (There were also testimonials from then-state Senator Barack Obama and the mayor of Chicago.)

“It sickens me to think that this execrable creature has the even a remote chance to be the next President. I mourn for the country of my youth.”

Amen to that, brother. This has been my lament for some time. What I think we are seeing is that the Democrats are and always have been but still cannot stand up for what they really are. God help us all if he wins.

This should be posted every hour

Releasing this information from a high level official of the MdCain campaign would require attention in the media. Palin is up to it, let her do it. She could repeat what McCain said yesterday, and add that, "we hear that these are comments that were made by Obama. If true, he cannot be believed when he says he will defend Israel."

That will get the MSM howling. If not true, it may force the LAT to release the tape to rebut it. If it is true, then the LAT may continue to hide the tape, but the story will be out there.
