Khizr Khan was tricked into smearing Donald Trump
The Hill ^ | July 31, 2016 | Charles Hurt

Posted on 08/01/2016 7:21:16 AM PDT by Hojczyk

To her, Capt. Khan is not a just soldier who died defending his country in a foreign land. First and foremost, to her, he is a Muslim of Pakistani heritage and therefor is a perfect political pawn for just the right situation.

For just about every American alive, Capt. Khan is an inspiring and unifying figure. To Hillary Clinton, he is a tool to be used to divide people. In her false promise of unifying America, she creates a national political Babylon. Her avaricious greed for more and more power knows no bounds.

It is an open secret in Washington that politics is the last bastion of rampant racial profiling. Both parties do it, but Democrats have taken it to a whole new scientific level.

Politicians like Hillary Clinton slice and dice people into racial and gender groups. Then they toot on all their little “dog whistles” to send all their little demographic pawns scurrying in various directions. That is how you wind up with Khizr Khan standing on stage beside his head-scarved wife, waving around the U.S. Constitution and distorting Donald Trump’s position on keeping radical Islamic terrorism at bay.

Perhaps a better testimony from Khizr Khan would have been for him to talk about how Hillary Clinton was in the U.S. Senate when she voted to invade Iraq. Years later, after that position became politically unpopular, she changed her mind and joined new political forces to vacate all the land across Iraq that so many great American patriots like Capt. Humayun Khan had died for.

It was her vote that sent Capt. Khan to his death. And then it was her decisions later to render that sacrifice worthless.

Try sticking that into your dog whistle and blowing it.

It’s obvious Trump was set up, but he has to stop shooting from the hip or he’s going to lose the election. He doesn’t have to have an immediate response but should discuss with his advisers before making comments. It’s obvious that his need to respond outweighs him sitting down and thinking about what he is going to say. They are simply going to keep doing this more often and he’s going to keep on digging himself into a hole.

This is playing itself out fast- they LOOK so silly playing this over and over and over as if this one muslim soldiers death outweaghs everything and so we need to let terrorists in.

they had to go back 12 years to find one, and they came to this country when he was 2, so it is nearly 30 years they’ve been in this country.

And HilLIARy’s people said the parents of dead soldiers should shut up

He wasn’t tricked, he was paid...he worked for the Clinton Foundation, and he is a bought and paid for Hillary Shrill...

Saw this comment over on Gateway Pundit – not sure if the links will work here

Khizr M. Khan used to work for Hogan & Hartson, which has ties to the Clinton Foundation. He now works as a Lawyer.
https://apps.law.georgetown.ed…;

Hogan & Hartson and Lovells announced their agreement to merge on 15 December 2009
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/…;

“Hogan Lovells LLP, another U.S. firm hired by the Saudis, is registered to work for the Royal Embassy of Saudi Arabia through 2016, disclosures show. Robert Kyle, a lobbyist from the firm, has bundled $50,850 for Clinton’s campaign”

http://freebeacon.com/politics…;

Concurrently Hogan Lovells has made a three-year Clinton Global Initiative (CGI) “Commitment to Action.”

http://www.hoganlovells.com/en…;

“Many lawyers at Hogan Lovells remember the week in 2004 when U.S. Army Capt. Humayun Khan lost his life to a suicide bomber. Then-Hogan & Hartson attorneys mourned the death because the soldier’s father, Khizr Khan, a Muslim American immigrant, was among their beloved colleagues”

I am so sick of this B.S. that Hillary pulls all the time, this is exactly what it’s going to be like if she wins, which she won’t...we have a strong Army of Supporters!!!

excellent article

ending quote:

“Perhaps a better testimony from Khizr Khan would have been for him to talk about how Hillary Clinton was in the U.S. Senate when she voted to invade Iraq. Years later, after that position became politically unpopular, she changed her mind and joined new political forces to vacate all the land across Iraq that so many great American patriots like Capt. Humayun Khan had died for.

It was her vote that sent Capt. Khan to his death. And then it was her decisions later to render that sacrifice worthless.”

Khan said if up to Trump his son would not have been in America (false)

Trump should note that if not for Bush-Hillary (and failed anti-terror policies of Bill) Khan’s son may not have been in Iraq (true)

That should have been Trump’s response. Instead he says something that opens him up to more criticism. We all know he is setting them up as with this incident we found out that the father has ties to Muslim groups. However, by the time this finally comes out, the rats are onto something else.

What Trump probably can use is a SWAT team that can get in front of this stuff.

All muslims are for rent. If I were the Donald, I’d be working a plan to pay this chump to do an about face on Hitlery. He’d most certainly do it because these people have no moral standard, virtue or principles that guide them do otherwise.

I agree with you entirely. Trump needs to step back and realize that hardly anyone was swayed by Muslim parents with a slain child whether it was in our war effort or not. It is obvious that the DNC selected Muslim parents of a slain soldier rather then other parents or a widow of a slain soldier.

Donald should have ignored it - or merely stated that the parents sorrow is expected and they need to realize that Hillary voted for that war. Enough said!

Why he should have ignored him? he attacked without any reason. Muslims look for or force Kufirs to become Dhimmi. He was doing with Trump and failed.
If you bow down once, they will go after your neck.

14 = Muslim US Soldiers who died while in service to USA

15 = US soldiers assassinated by Muslim US Soldiers MAJ Hasan and SGT Akbar

The muslims are winning the war of attrition even within the US military.

100%,as Trump would say.

By the way, looks like Mr. Khan-job is waving the white flag this morning and wants out of this feud.

Well...

Developments have had a way of later vindicating at least most of what Donald has said, even when he hasn’t made the very best answer. Donald has already adjusted his tack on various matters, and will surely keep on doing so.

Prayers for God to grant wisdom to Donald Trump will be quite helpful, I believe.

A question like this has many aspects. Let’s assume the best, that Khan chose this out of wishing the best to the America he had come to. The contrast between this and jihadism couldn’t be starker; and yet today the world Muslim community has a bad jihadism problem. Donald is caught between a rock and a hard place here. Some Khans might end up getting shut out in the attempt to bar likely jihadists, which is a shame. However maybe they could still use their courage at home to stop the jihadists.

I know the arguments about Islam per se, in fact I know how a “moderate” could easily slide into violent jihadism without any warning that we can see. I don’t preach any kind of pan-religionism, I preach Christianity. However there may be those people who are approached by the spirit of God before recognizing Him, and respond the right way. Khan may have been such a person.

I think there could be wiser answers, and if they come, they may come from Trump’s more spiritual Christian advisors.

Hillary voted to send him to war, and Muslims killed him. And that’s Donald Trump’s fault?
