Obama Speaks Under Arafat Banner
The Weekly Standard ^ | 03/21/2013 | Daniel Halper

Posted on 03/21/2013 7:12:44 AM PDT by pepsi_junkie

At a press conference today in Ramallah, President Barack Obama addressed the assembled journalists while standing under a Yasser Arafat banner:

"Hope everyone saw presser. If not there, it was notable that Obama and Abbas spoke from under a banner bearing pictures of Arafat and Abbas. Also another big banner was hanging on wall nearby with Abbas kind of superimposed on Arafat," the White House pool reporter notes.

I am a non-denominational Christian, thus my dogtags say “Christian”. However, Dirtbag claims to be Christian because muzzies can lie about their faith if it serves their purpose.

This ass-clown is like a bull in the china shop over there.
Jesus wasn’t goo enough but Arafat is? Muslim.

Now just a cotton pickin’ minit here. Let’s be fair. He could have spoken under stills of the Ramalleh lynching: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3U5-IVKe5QI, or blown up busses. But he didn’t. We all ought to be grateful for his restraint and diplomatic savvy. Them Israelis will put up with anything, and the Palis will go off at the slightest provocation, especially when trying to be sensitive to their oppression and sad plight./sarc

Arafat was the number one serial killer of Jews since WWII.

This is the kind of thing that historically gets politicians assassinated. What in old HAIL was Obama thinking?

DUH?

Obama campaigned in Israel, lying to every group he addressed, then he campaigned in Gaza, lying through his teeth to Hamas.

Far too much campaigning. Far too much telling both Israelis and Palestinians "what they wanted to hear."

No wonder that Obama did not address the Knesset. No campaigning is allowed there. Nethanyahu made Obama look like a mental midgit.

Who is the leader of the free world? Benjamin Nethanyahu. Obama still feels that America is in its late colonial phase and needs to reign itself in, instead of enforcing peace without any hesitation.

He was heckled.

But, for the few you refer to...’t surprise me If O’s people made arrangements for students who support Free Gaza Movement and the International Solidarity Movement, ..you know....the Code Pink crowd.

Because it is Impossible to believe he would speak without trying to manipulate the audience. For goodness sakes, if they will troll the web like crazy trying to manipulate discussions...we can be sure they’d arrange their own to work the crowd for his first visit to Israel as Prez.

Not necessarily. I'm a non-denominational Christian. I believe that the Bible is the word of God. And that God sent his only son Jesus to Earth to live here face and deny temptation, and to die on the Cross to atone for sins of all mankind. End of story. I don't recall seing anyhing about Catholic, Lutherin, or Baptist in the Bible. Just followers of Christ and wanting to follow in his path hense CHRISTian.
If God doesn't care about denominations, why should I.

I hate to say this but Notre Dame (and Georgetown) could have said no about covering up references to Christianity.

He may have asked it..they did not have to comply.
