The American Apologist

In honor of my Jewish & Israeli friends…

Jimmy Carter is not the only person to claim racism in current event surrounding the “ObamaCare” chaos — there are plenty of liberal elitists who perceive All whites (not just those that oppose Obama) as racists — but perhaps this cartoon best illustrates Carter’s true weakness.

And here’s a story I missed last month regarding Clearwater, FL and their budget crisis — apparently, the FIRST thing to go in the budget was the America flag and the flagpoles… un-be-lievable!

In a Chicago Sun Times article about Michael Jackson’s death (a jewish conspiracy, no less) Nation of Islam leader, Minister Louis Farrakhan, ended with this quote about President Obama:

In speaking of Jackson finding his roots in the black community, Farrakhan said President Obama did the same when he said police “acted stupidly” in arresting Harvard University Professor Henry Louis Gates Jr. Obama later said that he had used a poor choice of words.

“His [Obama's] black started coming out,” Farrakhan said. “He had to pull that fella back in. Underneath, it shows you all his brilliance, his magnificence … he’s one of the brothers.”

So the President acted “black” when he started making foolish remarks — or was it because his comments contained racist accusations?  Just wondering….

Below is a good video comparing the hatred and bloodlust the Islamic terrorists have for the Jews with the Nazis movement of the 1930’s -1945. If you are young, naive, or a liberal, please watch it and look for the similarities — and when you’re done watching, don’t tell me how “the Nazis were misunderstood” or “most Germans weren’t involved” or worse yet “each country has a right to exist with its own beliefs” — Bull Crap!

EVIL EXISTS and it is being propagated in radical Islam today. When an ethnic group, religion, or country takes a vow to eradicate All Jews (actually, all infidels) it no longer becomes a vague idealogical difference between peace-loving societies — it is a real and viable threat to the western world — not just Israel and the Jews, but all Christians, Hindus, Buddhists — all non-Muslim religions in the world today.

So watch the video and learn the facts, then get your head out of your ass and take a stand against radical Islam — do it before it’s too late!

According to the NY Daily News, a Norwegian diplomat by the name of Trine Lilleng doesn’t understand the concept of Reply-All.

Caught in Web: Diplomat’s email comparing Israel actions in Gaza to Holocaust causes controversy

Apparently, email horror stories of the dreaded inadvertent ‘Reply All’ or unintended ‘Forward’ haven’t circled the ranks of the Norwegian diplomatic corps.

Trine Lilleng, a first secretary at the Norwegian embassy in Saudi Arabia has come under fire for using her Foreign Ministry email account to circulate emails likening the Israeli offensive in Gaza to the Nazi Holocaust, the Jerusalem Post reports.

“The grandchildren of Holocaust survivors from World War II are doing to the Palestinians exactly what was done to them by Nazi Germany,” the email, obtained by the Jerusalem Post, states.

The missive, which contained asked recipients to forward it, also contains over forty attached pictures juxtaposing images from “Operation Cast Lead” with iconic Holocaust photography.

Lilleng told the Jerusalem Post the email was a “private email” sent to “a few friends”.

When asked whether it was appropriate for her to use a ministry account for such purposes, she responded, “I am not interested in saying anything about that.”

Upon learning of the e-mail, the Oslo-based Center Against Anti-Semitism filed an official petition with Norwegian Foreign Minister Jonas Gahr Støre, which was hand-delivered to the ministry in Oslo.

Noting that Norway is among the European countries looking to help mediate the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, center director Erez Uriely wrote, “We fail to see that the distribution of anti-Semitic pictures is compatible with such a role.”

For its part, Norway’s Embassy in Tel Aviv did not initially respond to the Jerusalem Post’s request for comment.

According to a profile posted on the professional networking site LinkedIn, Lilleng, 38, has been with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs for 11 years, and has been in Riyadh since 2007 after previous stints in Islamabad, Pakistan (2003-06) and Washington (2001-03). She’s also served as a radio operator for the Royal Norwegian Navy and as a peacekeeping soldier for the United Nations, and is scheduled to remain in Riyadh through 2010.

In a perfect world, Ms. Lilleng’s diplomatic career would have just ended…

Eye for an Eye: Arab Attacker Killed by his Own Rock

by Maayana Miskin

(IsraelNN.com) A Palestinian Authority Arab who stoned cars in Samaria was killed by one of his own rocks, police have concluded. A Jewish man held in connection with the death has been released.

The Arab teenager hurled heavy stones at Israeli-owned vehicles along a Samaria highway last Tuesday evening. He managed to hit one car, which was driven by a resident of the nearby town of Emmanuel.

Fearing further attacks, the driver fired a single shot in the air to frighten away the stone-thrower. He then contacted local security officers to report both the attack and his own response.

A short time later, Israeli paramedics received a report of an Arab teen found unconscious and badly wounded next to a highway. The teen suffered a serious head injury that appeared to be a bullet wound. Medical personnel rushed to the scene but were unable to save the young Arab, who died a short time later.

Police originally believed that the resident of Emmanuel who reported firing in the air had in fact fired at his attacker, killing him. The man was arrested and questioned. However, an initial forensic report showed that the attacker had not been killed by a bullet, and the detainee was released.

A final forensic report, released over the weekend, showed that the attacker was killed when a stone he threw hit the car driven by the man from Emmanuel. The stone hit the car’s tire and bounced back at high speed, hitting the attacker and leaving him with a fatal head injury.

Thanks to LindaSoG for the update on this event.

I am beginning to think there is no hope for western-based democracies with a Judeo-Christian foundation such as Israel and the United States. It seems that much of Europe has now become a quasi-Muslem state — if not in direct government policy, then certainly in social standing. Just look at Europe — I am shocked to see how Shia Law has influenced the cultures of France, Belgium, Britain, etc. in the last 50-60 years. Don’t get me wrong. I would never have called Britain a pro-Israeli state — after all, the Brits did ally themselves with the Arabs during the post-World War II era. Once Israel was established in 1948, recreating a Jewish homeland in the Middle East for the first time in modern history, the British seemed angry at the Jews.

That being said, I was still saddened when I ran across this posting in The Independent in the U.K.  The post is written by Yasmin Alibahi-Brown, an award winning journalist,  who asks the world:

How many Palestinian Anne Franks did the Israelis murder, maim or turn mad? Unless the Israeli state can see that equivalence there is no future for Palestine and even less for the moral health of Israel where racist attitudes towards Arabs are as dangerously pathological as the anti-Semitism of many Muslims.

Unbelievable… Yasmin is evoking a powerful and highly-emotional image there… Palestinian Anne Franks… images of a young Arab girl, hiding fearfully in an attic cupboard of her father’s factory come to mind. Never mind that it is journalistic falsehoods crap.

Let examine the so-called similarities between the late Anne Frank and her fictitious Arab counterpart — Hannah Hamas:

• Hannah Hamas doesn’t hide in the cupboard of her father’s factory. She is used as a human shield to protect the mighty Hamas terrorists…
• Hannah Hamas wasn’t put on a death train and sent the gas chambers — no, Israel routinely holds ceasefires to allow humanitarian aid to get into the Gaza Strip — unfortunately, there is repeated evidence of Hamas selling that humanitarian aid and not allowing it get to Hannah.
• Hannah doesn’t have to wear a yellow star (or cresecent moon) on her clothes to identify herself as a second class citizen — no, Hannah and her friends may be viewed with distrust (and rightly so in some cases), but she doesn’t have to wear a “badge of shame” does she?
• I have yet to see “The Jews” smash and loot Arab stores or factories in the region. I haven’t seen them burn hundreds of mosques in a single night. I haven’t seen them stone Arabs in the street while chanting “Arabs are the cause of all of the evils in our world”. You may have forgotten KrystallNacht, Yasmin, but much of the world has not.
• Furthermore, I don’t recall Anne Frank — the real Anne Frank, the one who died at the hands of anti-semitic Nazis –  or her fellow countrymen firing mortars or rockets at German civilians in another country.
• Lastly, Hannah Hamas and her fellow countrymen have allowed Hamas to gain control and create this chaotic war — firing rockets from mosques, firing mortars from schools, building tunnels under homes — I don’t remember Anne Frank and her family doing any of this…

No, Yasmin, the differences are monumental and your emotional imagery, although powerful, is crap. How dare you attempt to taint the memory of a Holocaust victim with your pathic attempt to gain sympathy for the Palestinians!

Examine the facts:

• Hamas is a terrorist organization. They have fired thousands of rockets and mortars into Israel in the last few years and they target civilian targets in order to create fear and terror among the population.
• Hamas is the recognized governmental authority of the Palestinian people since Fatah ceased to be in control and the Palestinian People support Hamas — so much so that they use themselves as (or are forced to be) human shields for these terrorists.
• Israel has warned civilians IN ADVANCE to planned attacks on military targets (something the Hamas cowards could not conceive of doing).
• Israel has routinely stopped offensive actions in order to allow humanitarian aid to enter the war zone — EVEN THOUGH they know that Hamas uses these lulls in the fighting to rearm itself.

No, Yasmin, Hamas has no Anne Franks in their midst. They are terrorists and as history has shown, they must be dealt with decisively or they will kill again — unlike Anne Frank.
