Al "Anti-Semitic" Sharpton Tim Bueler

The Reverend Al Sharpton's run for the Democrat presidential nomination was a shock to reasonable people. Sharpton has built his career as a self-proclaimed savoir, or civil rights leader, but he only shows up to grandstand for minorities who he claims have been the victims of racism, hate crimes, or police brutality. Sharpton inserts himself into the conflict, throws around racial slurs and anti-Semitic comments, and incites riots for personal political gain.

"Winner in Brawley suit says victory is bittersweet," (CNN.com, July 14,1998). Tawana Brawley, a 15-year-old black female, was found in a garbage bag with dog feces smeared on her body and racial epithets scrawled on her, after disappearing from her home on November 1987. With the help of Al Sharpton, she claimed a gang of white law enforcement officers had abducted and raped her. One of these accused men was former prosecutor Steven Pagones. Eventually, a grand jury pronounced her story a hoax, exonerating Pagones. The jury found Sharpton liable for $65,000 of the total damages for making seven defamatory statements about Pagones, many of which included Sharpton calling Pagones a "rapist." Sharpton never apologized for his remarks against Pagones, demonstrating his unrepentant hatred toward whites. According to a Jewish Forward article "The Crown Heights Riot & It's Aftermath," January 1993, by Philip Gourevitch, Yosef Lifsh, a Hasidic Jew, a Hasidic Jew, lost control of his car while driving in Crown Heights. A black seven-year-old, Gavin Cato, was killed, and his seven-year-old cousin, Angela Cato, was badly injured. When Lifsh stepped out of his car to help the child, angry black bystanders beat and robbed him before police could reach the scene. With Lifsh badly beaten, and the Cato children under the car, medics placed Lifsh in the first ambulance. Seeing this, the black crowds began to gather, crying "racism," and chanting "Jews, Jews, Jews."

Later that day, the angry black mob accosted Yankel Rosenbaum, a twenty nine year old Orthodox Jew, shouting, "Get the Jew!" and "Kill the Jew!" Rosenbaum was stabbed and beaten. He died, despite receiving medical treatment. True to form, Al Sharpton rushed to Crown Heights. He called for the arrest of Lifsh, and even pressured Brooklyn DA Charles Hynes into convening a Grand Jury, which found no cause for an indictment.

Al Sharpton then spoke at Gavino Cato's funeral, saying, "The world will tell us he was killed by accident. Yes, it was a social accident. It's an accident to allow an apartheid ambulance service in the middle of Crown Heights. It is an accident to think that we will keep crying and never stand up and call for justice. What type of city do we have that would lie on our children and allow politics to rise above the blood of innocent babies? Have we lost all our moral fiber? Talk about how Oppenheimer in South Africa sends diamonds straight to Tel Aviv and deals with the diamond merchants right here in Crown Heights." During horrific three-day, four night attack on Jews in Crown Heights neighborhood, angry black mobs attacked Jewish homes, and held up signs that read, "Hitler didn't do his job." Many Jews throughout the community lived in fear - fear that was perpetuated by Al Sharpton's fiery rhetoric against Jews, whom he referred to as "diamond merchants."

Why isn't the "elite" media exposing Al "Anti-Semitic" Sharpton for his comments? Is it because he black? Yes. Is it because he is bleeding heart liberal-Democrat? Of course. Why doesn’t the press persecute him like they would if a Republican said these things? Because the radical left control’s the culture! They are deaf, dumb, and blind when it comes to criticizing their own. We live in liberal times, where bums like Sharpton can say all the racist, anti-Semitic comments they want, and the media will over look it; but if a conservative dares say anything that could be remotely construed as hateful, that will be front page headlines.

Are Al Sharpton's comments about Jews just an accident? When he's walking with people carrying signs that glorify the Nazi’s killing Jews, could this be by chance? The answer is no. Sharpton has built his political career by attacking Jews and whites. He is the racist monster he claims others to be!

According to the Jewish Post of New York, article titled "Burn the Jew Store Down," January 1996, by Hy Drusin, the Reverend Al Sharpton organized a group of protestors in 1995, resulting in two months of protest outside Fredi's Fashion Mart, a Harlem business owned by Fred Harari, a Jewish man. At the time, Sharpton was head of the National Action Network. The protest centered on the eviction of Sikhulu Shange, owner of the Record Shack, who was subletting from Mr.Harari. In months leading up the Harlem Massacre, Al Sharpton used black radio stations (WWRL and WLIB) to attack non-black Harlem storeowners. Here is a transcription of one of his speeches:

"Now, many of us are involved in various levels of struggle. One of the things that our Buy Black Campaign, and Brother Morris Powell and I are engaged in, is there is a systemic and methodical strategy to eliminate our people from doing business off 125th Street. It started with the vendors, now they're going to the actual merchants. One of our brothers who has for years been a backbone in our community, who has not only been an entrepreneur, but has also been a activist and involved in the struggle is now being threatened with not having his lease renewed."

"Brother Sikhulu -- stand up, brother -- on 125th Street. I want to make it clear to the radio audience -- and do you hear -- that we will not stand by and allow them to move this brother, so that some white interloper can expand his business on 125th Street. And we're asking the Buy Black Committee to go down there, and I'm gonna go down there, and do what is necessary to let them know that we are not turnin? 125th Street back over to outsiders as it was done in the early part of this century." (Radio Station WWRL, Sharpton Rally, 9/9/95)

Sharpton organized crowds of protestors, screaming about "bloodsucking Jews" and "Jew bastards" and threatening to "burn the building down." Finally, Roland James Smith, Jr., got Sharpton's message. On Friday, December 8, at 10:12 a.m., Smith walked into Freddy's Fashion Mart, pulled out a gun, ordered all the black customers to leave, spilled paint thinner on several bins of clothing and set them on fire, resulting in the deaths of eight people, including himself. Isn't it wonderful, how Al-the-racist Sharpton can throw around words like "white interloper" and "bloodsucking Jews" in public, and the "elite" media conveniently misses it again! But I see it all. I see Sharpton for the kind of guy he really is: a low life bum and racist who hates Jews and Whites. I am not shocked by anything any more. It is clear in my mind that the Democrat party doesn't care what Al Sharpton says or does. They have so few blacks in high positions, and that they are willing to justify anything in the name of their idol, “diversity.” Maybe that’s even understandable politics. But the press? The newspapers and TV we are supposed to rely on for fair and balanced reporting?

Let me get something straight, if a conservative opens his mouth to speak the factual truth, he is called "racist," "fascist," or "homophobe;" but if guys like Al Sharpton say things that would be objectionable coming from anyone else, they are called "activists."

Is it just me, or is there something terribly hypocritical, unfair and damaging to freedom, here?

Al Sharpton is a racist scumbag. He's a lying, cheating, pathetic man, who, along with Jesse Jackson have done enormous damage to race relations. I mean, how in the heck do you accuse someone of rape and nothing happens to you when it's proved not just false, but a hoax? Why any person would put stock in either of these shysters is beyond me.
