Obama Calls on Americans to Resist His Administration and Party
AP Quoting Mr. Obama ^ | June 5, 2009 | PittsburghAfterDark

Buchenwald "teaches us that we must be ever-vigilant about the spread of evil in our own time, that we must reject the false comfort that others' suffering is not our problem, and commit ourselves to resisting those who would subjugate others to serve their own interests," Obama said.

Mr. Obama must not realize the extent of historical irony of him making this statement.

The hallmark of his administration and party is to reject the suffering they cause and sbjugating others to serve their own self interests.

It’s also a great statement for the justification of the Iraq War he apologized for just yesterday.

Indeed he has made many simular “ironic” statements in recent days - too bad the state run American media fails to report them for what they are.... whereas the UK press seems to enjoy throwing obama’s own words back in his face

Well right on Mr. Obama.

FOR ONCE, I can agree with something you said, even though I know your words are as empty as Joe Bidens head.

Gives a whole new meaning to the concept of a vacuum.

He talked of how the Jews should understand what the Palestinians are going through.

He missed the boat in trying to use the Holocaust for an analogy.

The Jews were a displaced an enslaved people throughout history.

There are some in the Middle East who do not believe that Israel has a right to exist at any size. He should do more to speak out against that rhetoric.

All Obama seems to have heard of is the “Holocaust.” He He does not seem to know the history of the Middle East at all or that Jews have lived there continuously for 2,000 years or.

He does not seem to know that the West Bank is 100% legally Israel’s by all international law. Obama has bought into the Islamic hate and whopper lies and is now repeating them. Everyone on the planet knew until a few decades ago that “Palestinian” was associated with the Jewish people. Mark Twain and world leaders are but a few. It was only a few decades ago that the Arabs started to call themselves “Palestinians.” Jordan is the homeland of the vast majority of this group. Jordan, Egypt, Syria, Saudi Arabia, etc, etc, etc, have vast lands and great wealth. These countries don’t really care about their brethren or they wouldn’t purposefly keep them in refugee camps. Wtih far few resources availalbe to do it, Israel absorbed an equal number of Jews who were expelled by the Muslim countries and fled Ethiopia, the Soviet Union, etc, etc.
