We know who you are and who your friends are. Barack Obama, why don't you just go home?
Barack, your visit here is just a waste of time; you're not wanted or needed here. We'll do just fine without you and you'll probably do better with out us, too. Don't come around here making as if you're looking out for the good of Israel. We know who you are and who your friends are. Zigzagging back and forth about dividing or un-dividing Jerusalem won't clear your history.
I'm not talking about your middle name. Any good Christian might have the middle name Hussein (although I can't think of any others). We won't hold that against you. There are worse things than having an Arab name; like for instance being supported by a known Jew-hater, bigot Louis Farrakhan of the Nation of Islam, who among other statements has accused the Jews of bringing on the Holocaust through cooperation with Hitler - "They helped him get the Third Reich on the road." But, of course, it would be wrong to hold that against you, because you haven't been rallying for his support (recently).
We can't really blame you for the beliefs of Father Michael Pfleger, who embraces Black Liberation Theology, which claims that Jesus was Black - so the Jews have no claim to Israel and, therefore, the Muslims are the rightful heirs of the Holy Land. Those beliefs have nothing to do with you, aside from the fact that you have coined the man your "moral compass." But one must admit that Pfleger is not your only mentor and also is not alone in looking up to Farrakhan.
Your spiritual mentor is Reverend Jeremiah Wright, who has praised Jimmy Carter for denouncing Zionism. Last year, the Trumpet Newsmagazine of Chicago's Trinity United Church of Christ gave the Dr. Jeremiah A. Wright Jr. Trumpeter Award to Louis Farrakhan and said that he is a man who "truly epitomized greatness." You are a member of that Church and Jeremiah Wright is its leader and your spiritual adviser.
Now you won't go so far as to criticize Jimmy Carter, not even for meeting with the heads of Hamas, because, to paraphrase your words, "It's not your place to criticize him." That is, not until the next day, when you were seeking the support of Jewish leaders. Then you must have found a new place for criticism. Aren't the Jews great for giving a guy a new vision and a sense of self-confidence? Is that what you meant by, "It's time for change"?
Barack Hussein, we won't hold it against you. But can you tell us what you mean by supporting a Palestinian State along side Israel? Do you mean a replay of the ethnic cleansing of Jews from Gaza three years ago? Do you foresee soldiers carrying men, women and children away from their homes, which are to be demolished by bulldozers? Palestinian rule brought on the endless rocket fire on Sderot and the thousands of Jewish refugees who have yet to find permanent homes or means of a steady income. Is that your vision of a new hope that Farakkhan's Final Call website praises you for?
Barack Hussein, why don't you just go home? Your visit to Israel this week is not because you're looking out for the wellbeing of Israel and the Jewish people. You're coming to Israel looking for the Jewish vote; your goal is to speak with the Jewish American voters through the press coverage of this tour to the holy land. You want them to think that you took the time off from your busy campaign to further peace in the Middle East. Your hope is that enough stupid Jews will misread the message and take it as an act of support for Israel.
Don't use us or our land as a photo-op to transmit a twisted call for support to Jewish-American voters. You don't fool us. We know who you and your friends are.
Barack Hussein, why don't you just go home? But on the way out, remember the words you heard here from the proud Jewish settlers in Judea and Samaria: "This is our land!" We are back after two thousand years of forced exile and we are not about to leave it again.
Yes, yes, Jews were living and have always lived in and around Palestine. That has nothing to do with a movement of immigrants who proclaim the ‘right’ to come to an area, displace its inhabitants, and create a ‘state’ based on their interpretation of mythology. Thank G-d in this country Utah is subject to the limits of the federal constitution and not the vagaries of some of its citizens beliefs. How cute would you find a ‘Mormon’ state, or Baptist, et al for that matter?
But as the land of Jordan was created by international treaty, (remember Transjordan?), stating that the land across the Jordan River to the East was to be made into an independent country and the land to the WEST of the Jordan was to be Israel... The West Bank is obviously "settled" by international Law by Arabs, not Jews.
But why let things like deeds of property, and International Law bother you when you have a chance to be rude to a Jew about his homeland.
Why not just get all upset about it and cite your own history that proves his point, and feel all morally superior. Jews are used to hypocritical arguments justifying the theft of their lives, not just their land, I am sure they will be polite to your excesses.
As to displacing its inhabitants, the Jews build on hilltops and the Arabs tend to build in valleys. In no place did the Jews “displace inhabitants”.
That is just Jihad bait that you took hook line and stinker.
BTTT!!!
BTTT !!!
Kudos to David Ha’ivri!
He puts Obama in a coffin.
Nails it shut and throws it into the ocean.
By By Obama!
STE=Q
I wish the American Jews were as enlightened as David Ha’ivri.
I wish everyone was as enlightened(about Obama)as David Ha’ivri!
Actually, Obama’s an open book, but — as George Orwell said:
“To see what is in front of one’s nose needs a constant struggle.”
STE=Q
BTTT!!!
bttt!
I wonder what David Ha’ivri has to say now that the news has surfaced that Obama leaked his “Wailing Wall prayer” to the media before he placed it in the wall?
One Freeper said, more or less, that the Jews would see this as a sacrilege.
What say ye?
“One Freeper said, more or less, that the Jews would see this as a sacrilege.
What say ye?”
The prayer is MEANT to be between the individual and God.
If he chooses to share it with others than that’s his decision.
I’m not sure Jewish rules would apply to a non Jew.
You would have to ask a Rabbi.
As for the political signs and stuff in the area of the wall — that is an impropriety. (IMHO)
These actions could be seen as highly disrespectful, however, again, I’m not sure what standard a non Jew should be held to.
Quiet frankly, I’m shocked that the rabbi in charge let him get away with it.
It would also seem that the onus is also on those that should be in a position to guide the uninitiated as to what is and is not, appropriate behaver, within that holly space.
STE=Q
BTTT
I was in Israel and at the Wailing Wall in 1985. Don’t remember what my prayer was. Hope I didn’t confess anything sinister. If so, there may be a warrant out for me should I ever return.
