United States of Israel - Senator Obama, his pastor and kow-towing to the Israel lobby

advertisement

Article reports how Obama has to toe the Israel Lobby Line: "the price of admission to the political mainstream is to abandon any foreign policy goals that diverge from those of the pro-Israel, anti-Palestinian lobby."

Obama March 18 speech re Pastor Wright: "[Wright's remarks] expressed a profoundly distorted view of this country -- a view that sees white racism as endemic, and that elevates what is wrong with America above all that we know is right with America; a view that sees the conflicts in the Middle East as rooted primarily in the actions of stalwart allies like Israel, instead of emanating from the perverse and hateful ideologies of radical Islam."

Excellent article that reveals the malignant power of the Israel Lobby in American public life.

From any humane perspective, McCain and Clinton - variously actively complicit in the racist mass murder of millions of Asian women and children from Palestine to Vietnam (post-1950 excess deaths in US Asian wars now total 24 million) - are unfit to a lead America.

Yet morally outstanding, cleanskin African-American candidate Barack Obama is obliged to toe the line of the racist Bush-ites, neo-Bush-ites and Zionists over Apartheid Israel.

According to outstanding Jewish South African Government Minister Ronnie Kasrils: "Israel 2007 - worse than Apartheid" (see: Israel 2007: worse than apartheid ).

Read Wlliam Blum's best-selling book "Rogue State" and see how Apartheid Israel collaborated with Apartheid South Africa in getting the Atomic Bomb and sided with the US at the UN to consistently defend Apartheid South Africa at the UN.

Apart from Northern Cyprus, Muslim countries have not invaded Western countries since the 17th century Ottoman Turkish siege of Vienna; according to former 7-year president of Italy, law professor, senator-for-life- and Western intelligence-intimate Francesco to a top Italian newspaper, the US CIA and Israeli Mossad were responsible for 9/11 to further US and Zionist Asian hegemony and Western intelligence agencies are well aware of this (see: "former Italian president Cossiga: US & Israel behind 9/11 ).

Support for Apartheid Israel has cost the US over %2.6 trillion and the zionist-promoted, anti-Arab anti-Semtic, Islamophobic Bush Wars have so far cost the US $3.5 trillion accrual cost (Nobel laureate Professor Stiglitz) - and as a consequence 20,000 mostly Hispanic and African-American infants die avoidably each year in the United States of Israel (see: How Bush-ites & Zionists killed 160,000 mainly African-American and Hispanic American infants ) .

Post-invasion violent and non-violent excess deaths in the Occupied Palestinian, Iraqi and Afghan Territories total (late 2007) 0.3 million, 1.5-2 million and 3-6 million, respectively (see: Palestinian Genocide, Iraqi Genocide, Afghan Genocide ) - the Zionists have not only trashed America's wealth, they have irredeemably trashed America's reputation.

African-American candidate Barack Obama has close roots in Kenya, a nation raped by the British in the 1950s with US-style and Israeli-style concentration camps holding 0.3 million Kikuyu, 1 million held in "enclosed villages", 0.1 million violently killed or killed in custody and 1.1 million 1950-1960 excess deaths (see p130: "" ( Body Count. Global avoidable mortality since 1950 ) .

Yet morally outstanding, cleanskin African-American candidate Barack Obama is OBLIGED by the Zionists dominating the United States of Israel to DENY the CONTINUING obscenity of racism within America and racist mass murder throughput the Zionist-backed US Empire - or quit the race.

The traitorous racist Zionists should be exposed for their malignant treason and racism and removed from American public life - as indeed has happened for the Nazis, the neo-Nazis and the KKK.

Counterpunch, Znet, and other alternative News outlets have written several samples of Obama's capitulation to Israel, and Zionism, class nationalism, imperial nationalism. One in which he did not even stand on his own remarks, and of course his duplicitous appeasement, to AIPAC, corporate, and Zionist groups, just like the whole of the democratic party, which pretends anti war positions, one foot outside Empire, and pro warmongering against Iran, for the sake of Israel's alliance with Amerikan Empire.

Of course since liberalism and conservativsm, as two class ideologies, two class parties are only embraced by Newsvine, you will see a majority of Obama and McCain supporters ignore this fundamental rot, capitulation to imperial policies, and proto fascist police laws. Obama voted for the Patriot act, votes for every Billion dollar occupation bill, and fails to impeach the war criminals. This guy is supposed to have a backbone????? for "change"??? when he won't even stand by his own remarks, and changes them to support Israeli occupation, after his sympathetic remark for Palestinians.

Rather than grimace over this inescapable fact, I do see some positive trends happening.

Such blatant capitulation only serves to remind even the most brain-washed of Americans, that the news they hear and reality are far removed. I think the propaganda overload (from megaphone and the like) is also helping sway many moderates to the truth of the matter...

It seems more recent that the common man is becoming aware of these crimes...

    The fundamental messages from the World War 2 Holocaust (that wiped my family from the face of Europe) are "zero tolerance" for racism" and "never again to anyone".

    Yet these fundamental messages are being daily DENIED by the anti-Arab anti-Semitic, Islamophobic Bush-ites, Clinton-style neo-Bush-ites and racist Zionists involved in the Palestinian Genocide, the Iraqi Genocide and the Afghan Genocide - a profound offence against Humanity, and the 30 million Holocaust victims, including 6 million Semitic victims of Nazi genocide.

    As outstanding Jewish American scholar Professor Bertell Ollman (NY University) has stated (see: Zionists are the worst anti-Semites in the world today ):

    "if Zionism is indeed a particularly virulent form of nationalism and, increasingly, of racism and if Israel is acting toward its captive minority in ways that resemble more and more how the Nazis treated their Jews, then we must also say so. For obvious reasons, the Zionists are very sensitive about being compared to the Nazis (not so sensitive that it has restrained them in their actions but enough to bellow "unfair" and to charge "anti-Semitism" when it happens). Yet, the facts on the ground, when not obscured by one or another Zionist rationalization, show that the Zionists are the worst anti-Semites in the world today, oppressing a Semitic people as no nation has done since the Nazis."

    Yet the power of the racist Zionist (RZ) Lobby in the United States of Israel (USI) is such that if Obama were to merely mention the views of outstanding anti-racist, humanitarian Jews such as South African anti-racism hero and Government Minister Ronnie Kasrils, or Professors Ollman, Chomsky, Rose, Finkelstein, Reinhart, Singer, Pappe etc etc - he would be out of the race immediately.

      First of all...you realize the source you seeded was "Electronic Intifada."
      Sounds extremely non-biased.

      Regardless...You speak of Israel and Zionism and its connection to Nazi Germany as if you have no understanding of either.

      You talk about Palestinian Genocide...but there is none, thank God.
      You blame Jews in Israel for the problems in the middle east.
      That is why people call you anti-semitic.

      Jeremiah9: What is corporate fascism? What is enabling police fascist laws, what is ethnic cleansing....why are your eyes closed? Supporting exclusive standards, double standards, is like saying:

      It ain't Fascism if we do it, It ain't torture if we do it, it ain't ethnic cleansing if we do it....Read Ilan Pappe the Israeli historian, but please open your eyes so you can read the script.

      Don't talk down to me like you're better than me.

      Don't tell me my eyes are closed when you can't even see my face.

      Don't tell me I support double standards when you clearly have none.

      And I like how you accuse me of "facism, torture, and ethnic cleansing."
      I find it real interesting how I can be guilty of all of those simply because I am a Zionist.
      I suppose if I accused all Muslims of blowing up the World Trade Center I would be an Islamophobic.
      Are you Zion-phobic?
