Obama Appoints Equivalent of Holocaust Denier to Green Jobs Post

Obama's Green Czar, Van Jones, signed letter blaming U.S. for 9/11 attacks

9/11 denial is exactly like Holocaust denial except for the fact that it excuses, denies, blames on the victim, or blames on somebody other than the known perpetrators two missing skyscrapers, four missing airplanes, and three thousand missing Americans instead of ten million missing Jews, Polish Catholics, Gypsies, and assorted Slavs. Other examples include accusations that Franklin Roosevelt was complicit in the Pearl Harbor attack, and Soviet Russia's efforts to blame the Katyn Forest Massacre on Germany. Barack Obama's appointment of Van Jones (who has already gone under that bus) as Green Jobs Czar is therefore no better than the appointment of a Holocaust denier, Katyn Forest whitewasher, or Pearl Harbor conspiracy theorist.

Here is the "9/11 Truth" petition along with not only the name of Van Jones but also those of Ralph Nader, Michael Lerner of Tikkun.org, and Medea Benjamin of Global Exchange. Archive.org has a copy.

Here are some easily recognizable signatories. The original page carries a disclaimer, incidentally, that they are signing on their own behalves as opposed to those of their organizations, but the presence of Code Pink and Tikkun.org is nonetheless hardly surprising. We did not know that Badnarik signed this, but now we will never support him for any public office.

“boy..quite a few Jews in association with Holocaust deniers...why so notsmart?”

It amazes me to see a professed Jew (and rabbi) like Michael Lerner engaging in the equivalent of Holocaust denial. Then again, Lerner is doing his best to endanger Jews in Israel (by supporting the Palestinian agenda) so it is not a big surprise.

Abraham Foxman of the ADL, who helped save MoveOn.org from total destruction (at my hands) in 2006, came one step short of Holocaust denial when he opposed Congressional recognition of the 1915 genocide of Armenians. Then he fired an ADL director who dared to speak up about this. I say “one step short” because he did not actually say that Armenians were not killed, or that Turks did not do the killing.

In 2006, ADL whitewashed MoveOn.org’s publication of anti-Semitic (and anti-Catholic) hate speech at its now-disgraced Action Forum. I exposed this and, had the ADL not stepped in to issue a whitewash, MoveOn might have been wiped off the face of the earth, just as the Million Mom March was destroyed in 2000-2001.

Van Jones was already involved in this in 2002—that is passed over to make it easier for Jones and his allies to pretend he didn’t know what he was signing in 2004.
