Obama's Jewish apologists are having a party ! Last week one of the President's official mouthpieces, the NY Times ran a report about Capers Funnye, Michelle Obama's cousin and a Rabbi. "You See", They say, "Obama has a cousin that is Jewish, he HAS to be pro-Israel. There is only one problem, while Funnye has converted to Judaism, he is not preaching Judaism. According to the website of the congregation they are a Hebrew-Israelite congregation. While Funnye has been trying to get the "Black Jewish" congregations integrated into mainstream Judaism, their theology runs contra to Jewish theology.

The Hebrew-Israelite theology takes many forms. Some of them are Christian, they believe that Jesus was the Messiah, they believe that today's "white" Jews are not the true descendants of the faith. They believe Jews are descended from Khazars nomads who ruled the steppe area of central Asia for parts of the for parts of the 7th-9th centuries And converted to Judaism in the eighth century. Ironically this is one of the charges that Arabs use to deligitimize the Jewish claims on Israel.

Capers Funnye

If that's his birth name, mommy and daddy had a strange sense of humor.

Same way Trinity Church wasn’t really a Christian Church given that Rev. Wright was a Nation of Islam member until he had a falling out with Farakhan.

Lying sacks of dung. Everyone of them.
