Ayers, Dohrn helped organize flotilla group

Former Weather Underground leaders William Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn, as well as Code Pink founder Jodie Evans, helped organize the Free Gaza Movement, which launched the six-ship flotilla from Turkey to Israel that ended in a violent clash with Israeli Defense Forces, BigGovernment.com reported.

In January, the trio were spotted in Egypt attempting to stir up crowds on the streets with 1,400 other left-wing activists after the Egyptian government refused to allow Free Gaza Movement members to enter the Gaza Strip. About 100 marchers were eventually allowed to cross the border, where they were met by former Hamas prime minister Ismail Haniyeh.

BigGovernment quotes author Philip Weiss, who wrote that he witnessed Ayers and Dohrn arguing with fellow activists over whether to accept Egypt’s offer to allow a small number of them into Gaza:

“Dohrn said that the principle of ‘All or none’ was a miserable one for activist politics. You always took what you could get and kept fighting for more. A European man in a red keffiyeh screamed at her that she was serving the fascisti. Her partner Bill Ayers gently confronted him and asked him why he was so out of control. Between getting on and off the bus, Dohrn, who wore a flower in her hair, said that she didn’t like the absolutist certainty of the people on the other side of the police barricades, and having been in the Weather Underground, she knew something about absolutist feeling.”

And sadly, if we could get a solid conservative elected president he, or she, still wouldn’t prosecute these bastards. And there are a lot more than just Ayers and Dohrn who need prosecuting.

Perhaps Mossad will give us a "how to" primer. If you know what I mean.

Maybe Karl Rove can do a citizen's arrest on Jodie Evans for aiding terrorists the next time she tries to citizen's arrest Rove.

this was all a set up and it had been planned for months , probably when Ayers went over there a few months ago and is anyone going to say obama did not know about this.

I guess the media doesn’t think that the presidents mate, the man who launched his political career off the ground in his house is not newsworthy.

Outrageous. God give us the strength and courage to face the enemies within and to drive them so far underground that they dare not ever come up for air again. They do not deserve to live in America.

yes - said it was one of his favourite cities. I have never heard the name Al Quds before today.

So you also might not know where the name "Barack" or "Buraq" comes from, I take it?

First we learn today that Obama and some of his friends own the company that made the poisonous dispersant and now we find out that other Chicago friends were behind the anti-Israel flotilla, which we learned also had ties to Al Qaeda.

Corexit made by Nalco:

If you dig a little deeper you will find NALCO is also associated with Warren Buffett, Maurice Strong, Al Gore, Soros, Apollo, Blackstone, Goldman Sachs, Hathaway Berkshire.

We ate some peacock eggs. They look and taste like chicken eggs. Same for guinea hen eggs.

I should tell her I have been thinking about the name she gave her peacock and tell her that it is the most appropriate name as her hero is a peacock himself.
But that Wookie, what kind of bird would that be? Big Bird? She was wearing yellow during her yoga exercises today.

Photo and subsequent interview published on 09/11/2001 in the NY Times.

The photo comes from a Chicago Magazine article of a similiar title to the NY Times one ("No Regrets" vs "No Regrets for a Love Of Explosives...". Both were done within 1 month of each other.

'Guilty as hell, free as a bird—America is a great country,' he [Ayers] said."
August 2001, Chicago Magazine (article: No Regrets)

"It was at the Chicago home of [Bill] Ayers and [Bernardine] Dohrn that Obama, then an up-and-coming 'community organizer,' had his political coming out party in 1995. Not content with this rite of passage in Lefty World — where unrepentant terrorists are regarded as progressive luminaries, still working 'only to educate' — both Obamas tended to the relationship with the Ayers."

" Does this surprise anyone? What's the betting that 0bozo put his old terrorist pal Bill Ayers up to this stunt? "

Gazagate flotilla scandal.

When are we going to have Congressional hearings on this ?
