It Never Stops: Obama's Church Published Letter Alleging Israeli "Ethnic Bomb."
Middle America, I'm sure this sort of stuff appears in your church bulletins all the time.

Wow. What a great honor it is to be a terrorist?
In my little hometown church the bulletin says stuff about some old lady that's having a hip surgery, or that the Legion's having a pancake breakfast.
It makes for a good compare/contrast.
On one hand you have "bake sale on Tuesday".
On the other hand you have "It's good to be a terrorist."
Hmmm.

Seems to me Obama's "church" is more like a front for terrorist groups like Hamas and al Qaeda than it is any kind of "church."

Perhaps Obama is telling the truth about never noticing any of this stuff in twenty years of being a member of the church. What does that say about the performance we can expect from him as President? The last time we had someone that clueless and oblivious in the Oval Office, it was Ulysses S. Grant. Look how that turned out.
No, thank you.

Good point,Pat, but I don't think you have to go all the way back to the 1870's. How about the 1970's? Mr. Peanut was that clueless and oblivious (and has not improved with age) and look how that turned out!

You guys are all looking in the wrong column. Mary gave birth to a PALESTINIAN? Is that why Jesus was always bitching about the Jews?
Also, Bob, let me dig around and find a pic of the River Jordan taken last year that will show that it is neither polluted nor dry.

Barack Hussein Obama is a post racial politician who can unite America by reaching across the aisle and striking non-partisan agreements.
Obama is against the war and wants to pull out immediately. His foreign policy team is decidedly anti-Israel and pro muslim. He wants to attack Pakistan but talk to Iran.
In the middle of a war, he wants to cut defense spending by 10%, cancel FCS, stop SDI, stand down nuclear alert and stop research into a new Nuclear weapon. (The B61 is 30 years old.)
He's for all forms of abortion including partial birth. He wants gay marriage and hate crime laws.
He wants to deny city residents their second amendment rights and all of us our right to self defense. Ban on semi automatic weapons and registration of all handguns.
He wants to control loans and regulate business. He wants to repeal the Bush tax cuts and raise taxes on upper income (above $30,000) people. He wants to tax oil company profits and sue Pharma.
He wants to institute universal health care.
He will open the borders and grant amnesty to illegal aliens.
He believes what Rev Wright preaches - black master race, violent overthrow of the US government. He hates whites and hates America. He refuses to wear an American flag lapel pin or render customary courtesy when our National Anthem is played.
His associates include the New Black Panthers, the Weather Underground, Kenyan Islamist politicians and bagmen like Tony Rezko who had ties to Saddam Hussein through oil for food.
Obama is a middle of the road guy. What's wrong with you people?

Well, South Africa and Israel did work together on WMD, including testing and developing nuclear weapons. Israel allegedly has chemical and biological weapons. It avoids signing up to the chemical weapons convention. It refuses, along with the US to turn the middle east into a nuclear free zone. You guys should read more widely?

Do you even use that thing between your ears or is it just there to give the pot a work out?

David Smith: There was some collaboration between Israel and South Africa. Both were small, somewhat isolated countries facing a communist menace. This did not signify Israeli approval of Apartheid and it had parallels in many other countries.
South Africa was accused of conducting one nuclear test (in 1979) and Israel was dragged in gratuitously. In any case, it's almost certain there was no such test. A sensor on a US satellite probably malfunctioned or got hit with a burst of solar radiation. Ground data showed no signs of an event.

Obama is not a racist, he is worse. He is a typical idiotic radical leftist, little different than the morons marching in Seattle and Berkeley with "paper-mache" puppets on their heads, but he is in a shiny package which the MSM can present as a new type of Democrat.
And as any Christian knows, Jesus was a Jew.
Obama's church is nothing but a black equivalent of the KKK.

Yeah, is it not insane they would consider a baby born in Bethlehem as a Palestinian considering the name Palestine was not created for 100s of years after the Romans destroyed the 2nd Temple in Israel. These Pali-Loving antisemites stop at nothing to bend the truth. They are the force of evil in the world, trying to deceive and rewrite history. These forces of evil, the Rev Wrong and his minions, will be erased from the earth soon. The hate they spew will be their own undoing.

Make noise about this.
Via the Lizard king, this derives from a 15 November 1998 article by Colvin and Mahnaimi. Here's another little Colvin gem, in which she maintains much of the same citing peace-studies prof Malcolm Dondo. Another associate of Colvin is one Sarah Baxter, who writes for the "Centre d Recherche sur la Mondialization", far-left kook site.
Mahnaimi for his part is best buds with "former" PFLP terrorist Bassam Abou-Sharif; the two now write anti-Israel books. (Documentation on their associations.)
They were most likely punk'd by a sci-fi story. Much like the Protocols, which began its life as a satire against Napoleon III.
Colvin-Mahnaimi is oft cited by Vanguard and IHR types, that is to say neonazis and holocaust-deniers.
This is blood libel, pure and simple.

The "ethnic bomb" they devised as per the original papers (whether hoax or not), were made to kill Arabs and Gentile Europeans.
Obama's church's keyboard commandos deleted "whites" (the main victims of Israeli treachery) and instead put in "blacks".
As if Israel would pick a people who aren't a national problem, over their enemies or their increasingly freedom-seeking western slaves.
Israel knows their host nations. Israels worry about uppity "goyim" (white gentiles). They don't have to care about uppity blacks.

I am for John McCain (because Socialism is madness--especially in a tanking economy).
But prior to this, many White people almost never seemed to care this much about about racism when people try to point it out to them. Now people are all of a sudden not afraid to use the word "racist" anymore.
They have now found the racists. At long last.
This is sort of funny. No lie.
I do find though, that very few people seem to treat Israel like a normal country in discussions anymore. It's either the closest thing to heaven--complete with Gods and angels--or it's another Apartheid regime.
Can it not be "normal"?
Israel is a great ally and a democracy surrounded by people who need to take more than a hint from it. That is my feeling about Israel. But like any other country--including ours--it has varying degrees of bad historical turns, and the South Africa thing is one of them.
Much of the "details" in the "brochure" are pure nonsense, but we do know for sure that Israeli cooperation/ties with South Africa were much deeper than many people would like to admit; and that was a sad, sad, thing--especially considering the history of the founding of Israel.

David Smith is complaining about Israel's arsenal and refusal to sign the NPT.
It seems that David doesn't know that Israel has to confont the whole Arab world and, in the past, the Soviet Union. Does he not know that Russians were embedded int he Egyutpian and Syrian military, that they flew combat for Egypt?

Honestly people, it's a church bulletin not a white paper. These kind of really peripheral ad hominem attacks make it look like Republicans can't fight Obama on policy issues.

I love that first paragraph, describing the "beautiful" church in Bethlehem, and the wonderful image of how Palestinian fighters were "given refuge inside it." One cannot help but imagine pacifist priests, appalled by the violence, who opened their doors to the poor, shivering, feareful, brave...sorry, I gotta stop here before I make myself gag.
Because what actually happened was that armed terrorists burst into the church, took those inside hostage, ate their food, urinated and deficated in the aisles, desicrated the holiest parts of the church, and trashed the entire interior.
Wright's statement is appalling in its brazen dishonesty. The fact that the world forgets quickly allows him to get away with his lie.

So whose running for President again, Rev Wright or Barrack Obama? Finally a descent man with passion for change and the betterment of the country, and the only thing people can continue to bash him with, is the fowl remarks from his FORMER Pastor. I am so sick and tired of reading about Rev. Wright as if he is the man running for President. We have real issues to deal with in the US and we need a cleansing. Obama or Hillary Clinton would be the best choice for the US right now. So let's get back to reality and back on track on the REAL issues in the US and nominate a person that can make the changes desperately needed in the US. Rev Wright have received entirely too much attention. I am sick and tired of all the desperate attempts to bring down Obama, as if he made the comments that Rev. Wright have made. They are clearly two different people, with two different agendas and passions in life. WAKE UP!!!!

Obama is "for change"? Uh, ANY candidate will usher in "change". The question is: good change or bad change? Merely blathering on about being "for" Change is stupid. In the extreme.
He also claims to be for "hope" - interestingly void of details. His followers therefore base all their joy and rapture on the man's claims to be for change and hope. But there's no "there, there". No details of what exactly he's offering that is so breath-takingly hopeful about his proposed "change".
Higher taxes are hopeful? Raising regulations, costs, and taxes on major American corporations ("big" oil, "big" Pharma, "big" auto etc.) is certainly "change" but hard to claim it'll be "good change". 40% of all American's 401k and retirement pensions are invested in these "big" corporations. So if their profits are seized by Obama's "change" guess who gets shafted? Why, that's right! "the little guy".
Speaking of little guys. Obama is pro-abortion to the hilt. He also wants to pull out of Iraq, consequences for millions of Iraqi civilian children be damned.
He claims to be for uniting America, getting us away from the polarization (caused by democrats) of these past few years. But what has he done in Illinois or Washington to show an ability to bridge the ideological divide? NOTHING. He's voted hard-core left 100% of the time. He's not crossed the aisle on anything. So again, he offers great sound bytes of being for some great American reconcilliation...but has exactly zero experience or record actually doing what he claims to be an expert in.
His famous race speach telegraphed his understanding of who "the real enemy" is: rich white people. He excused both black rage and white blue-collar class warfare rage as inevitable. His solution? redirect this against business. Seize private property and use government to redistribute the spoils to these two groups of haters who each feel entitled to what fellow Americans happen to have.
So much for a great unifying ideology - the only people he wants to unite are the haters, the angry, the undereducated "America owes me everything, I owe America nothing" entitlement groups. Call them the proletariat and we have classic Marxism here.
The man is a stuffed shirt- brilliant only in his own mind and the mind of people who can't specify exactly what specifics he offers as his 'change'.

Yes, Change and Hope is what Obama stands for. . as far as it being void of details, I have to disagree. Instead of listening to him to find out what you can critize, listen and hear what you can learn about the man's plan. I am one that can listen with understanding and with an open mind to what actions he wants to take. I have also listened to McCain and Hillary. I personally don't see any one of the three having more experience than the other.
Some simple facts:
In the U.S. Senate, Obama introduced the STOP FRAUD Act to increase penalties for mortgage fraud and provide more protections for low-income homebuyers, well before the current subprime crisis began.
Predatory Lending: In the Illinois State Senate, Obama called attention to predatory lending issues. Obama sponsored legislation to combat predatory payday loans, and he also was credited with lobbying the state to more closely regulate some of the most egregious predatory lending practices.
American Jobs: Barack Obama introduced the Patriot Employer Act of 2007 to provide a tax credit to companies that maintain or increase the number of full-time workers in America relative to those outside the US; maintain their corporate headquarters in America; pay decent wages; prepare workers for retirement; provide health insurance; and support employees who serve in the military.
It's so ironic how some have translated the "Race Speech" and made it out to be something totally different than what it was meant to be. Maybe that's because some just don't want to be unified. Some are just simply satisfied with the unfairness in America. Some believe change isn't needed and content with how things are now. How? Why? Please someone answer that for me.

Hey Truth.
Do you think it's an honor to be a terrorist?
Cause that's what the topic is.
Folks don't have a problem with Wright being black. Folks have a problem with him being weapons-grade crazy.
There's no correlation between those two things, don't you agree? Maybe you think there is correlation. Or maybe even causation.
I say that there is no correlation. But that's just me.

Practically no one is content with the way things are now. But there is something much, much worse, and that's the tired old collectivist crap on offer by Obama and Hillary.
Progressives are dressing said collectivist crap in a new wrapper and calling it "Change". This sort of collectivist "change" has been inflicted on many countries over the last century. The result was always - ALWAYS - the same: loss of liberty, declining living standards, opression, repression, and above all, rot. The people got "Equality" it's true. Equality in peasanthood.
That's why.
Senator Obama, who apparently agrees with much of the exceptionally goofy variety of Liberation Theology preached at his church, can stuff this sort of "change" where the sun don't shine.
