Reverend Wright: The Bible and No Jews

“I said that dirty word again, Israel.” This was one of the many disparaging remarks Obama’s pastor Jeremiah Wright made about Israel. According to Wright, Israel is occupying Arab land and has no right to its existence. He eliminates the legitimacy of the Jewish state of Israel in one speech; then he compounds the injury by usurping the Jewish historical ties to the land.

In Barack Obama’s apologia for Reverend Wright on March 18, the senator recounted his first service at Trinity church.

“People began to shout, to rise from their seats and clap and cry out, a forceful wind carrying the reverend’s voice up into the rafters….And in that single note – hope!...I imagined the stories of ordinary black people merging with the stories of David and Goliath, Moses and Pharaoh, the Christians in the lion’s den, Ezekiel’s field of dry bones. Those stories – of survival, and freedom, and hope – became our story, my story; the blood that had spilled was our blood, the tears our tears; until this black church, on this bright day, seemed once more a vessel carrying the story of a people into future generations and into a larger world...Our trials and triumphs became at once unique and universal, black and more than black; in chronicling our journey, the stories and songs gave us a means to reclaim memories that we didn’t need to feel shame about…memories."

FReepMail to be added or removed from this pro-Israel/Judaic/Russian Jewry ping list.

Warning! This is a high-volume ping list.

This anti-Israel BS is all about skin tone.

The Palis are brown, Israelis white.

Therefore, the Palis can do no wrong, and the Israelis are the White Devils.

Obama and Wright’s version of “hope” is based on tearing down and hating others. That’s not hope; that’s bigotry.

Sounds like the "identity movement": "the Jews aren't the real Israelites; our people are."

To read the TaNa"KH and see Jews instead of oneself requires a peculiar form of literalism that only "rednecks" seem capable of. Why so many Jews are terrified of the one group of chr*stians who insist that only the Jews are Israelites (and who are friendly to Halakhic observance) is a phenomenon I have beaten to death over the past fifteen hours or so.

Wright can buy any sign he wants for his church.

He is spouting all the Muzzie slogans...

[AngelesCrestHighway]

My-Oh-My.....with every tick of the clock “hope and change” looks more like “dupe and poop”.....

[Aria]

I wonder how many American Jews will vote for Obama....

[DainBramage]

No Israel is Gods land and Reverend Wright is against God.

What racism boils down to is hate. What envy boils down to is hate. What liberation theology, which is about racism and the unthinking envy which is the base unending Marxist class warfare is about is HATE.

Every follower of liberation theology therefore defines their "faith" by HATE. What differentiates liberation from Islamism - which is defined by HATE?

Obama's "hope" is REALLY hate.

Hate hides in the darkness, where it thrives.

Hope and love have always been identified with LIGHT.

Just another lie in a growing string of Obama's lies that are bring dragged from the darkness and into the light.

This photo is all you need to show to anyone. This is from late 2005, long after Wright said some of his most vile statements, and most in the presence of Obama. Nothing Obama says can take this away.

[Zechariah11]

But will the many liberal Jews who support this nuanced version of Jeremiah Wright continue to do so? I’m afraid they will! Iran will prosper and Israel’s enemies will as well if Obama is elected.

"He is spouting all the Muzzie slogans..."

He sure is. There's no difference between black liberation "theology" and Islamism.

[Always Right]

I wonder how many American Jews will vote for Obama....

Most. Aborting babies trumps the existence of Israel.

Memo:

Mr. Obama will be handing out dispensations for all racist comments made by his supporters, beginning at 6 AM, March 19, 2008

You merely need to swear your allegiance to Obama's candidacy in order to receive a 6 month's supply of these free passes

Do not bother to appear if you support Mrs. Clinton or Mr. McCain.

[padre35]

No no no, you’ve go it all wrong, Obama was giving Wright a hug because he thought he needed one after all the hatred he spread..

That is a picture of Obama, The Compassionate...

[SF Republican]

with every tick of the clock
I do believe he peaked just a bit early.
She will get the nomination.

[padre35]

Fascinating stuff indeed, I had read/thought that “identity” folks claimed descent through the dispossessed 10 tribes?

[syriacus]

The irreverent Wright says that white Romans persecuted black Jews like Jesus.

Doesn't Wright know black history?

Some Roman soldiers were black. Some Roman emperors were from Africa, including Septimus Severus who murdered hundreds of Christians of all races.
