JERUSALEM – Sen. Barack Obama's Chicago church reprinted a manifesto by Hamas that defended terrorism as legitimate resistance, refused to recognize the right of Israel to exist and compared the terror group's official charter – which calls for the murder of Jews – to America's Declaration of Independence.
The Hamas piece was published on the "Pastor's Page" of the Trinity United Church of Christ newsletter reserved for Rev. Jeremiah Wright Jr., whose anti-American, anti-Israel remarks landed Obama in hot water, prompting the presidential candidate to deliver a major race speech earlier this week.
Hamas, responsible for scores of shootings, suicide bombings and rocket launchings against civilian population centers, is listed as a terrorist group by the U.S. State Department.
The revelation follows a recent WND article quoting Israeli security officials who expressed "concern" about Robert Malley, an adviser to Obama who has advocated negotiations with Hamas and providing international assistance to the terrorist group.
In his July 22, 2007, church bulletin, Wright reprinted an article by Mousa Abu Marzook, identified in the newsletter as a "deputy of the political bureau of Hamas." A photo image of the newsletter was captured and posted today by the business blog BizzyBlog. The Hamas piece was first published by the Los Angeles Times, garnering the newspaper much criticism.

I don’t get it....is he purposefully trying to make it worse for Obama?
read
Article says it was published in July 07.
Ok, this wasn’t JUST posted on the church’s website...it’s from last July. Not that that makes it any better but I thought it was new to the site.
Yeah, just caught that.
Actually no. That’s not the same article. But I DID search first!
The Obama bus continues over the cliff......
The liberals, the dimocrats, the terrorists, the DEVIL, all on the same team.
Moss, the new pastor wants his 15 min of fame. Wright got all tv time, even though he retired in Feb 08...jealousy wil get you every time.
His Most Bigoted Self The Rev. Jeremiah Wrong is apparently working for Hillary Ping!!!!
My spleen is hurting from laughing at these demmie tactics so much—please, make them stop! :-)
Well, no, don’t. Let them continue to eat each other alive. Like the Mackie D’s commercial—I’m lovin’ it! ;-)
Well, they reprinted an article from the L.A. Times so i doubt this will change anybody’s mind.
What I find more telling is the L.A. Times reprinting the most moderate thing I’ve ever seen from Hamas
Marzook's original piece was titled, "Hamas' stand" but was re-titled "A Fresh View of the Palestinian Struggle" by Obama's church newsletter. The newsletter also referred to Hamas as the "Islamic Resistance Movement," and added in its introduction that Marzook was addressing Hamas' goals for "all of Palestine."
In the manifesto, Marzook refers to Hamas' "resistance" – the group's perpetuation of anti-Israel terrorism targeting civilians – as "legal resistance," which, he argues, is "explicitly supported by the Fourth Geneva Convention."
Hmm you’re right this might be an issue after all.
There just can’t be much left that sane people wouldn’t understand about Obama’s ideology, so I see the problem as two-fold: One, a lot of Obama supporters are not sane people, and Two, some of his supporters may be more sane than not, but they aren’t going to hear this information if they only get their news from mainstream and network news sources.
