Hamas almost gets one right

On his Facebook page (yes, Hamas does Facebook), Senior Hamas official Izzat al-Rishq accused President Obama and the Democrats of 'begging for Jewish votes' by amending their platform to reinstate language about Jerusalem that was in the 2008 platform. Al-Rishq added "Jerusalem was and will always be the eternal capital of Palestine, and of the Arab and Muslim nations."

Al-Rishq almost got it right. It's not so much that Obama is begging for Jewish votes as that he is begging for Jewish money to run his campaign. He's far behind Mitt Romney in fundraising and far, far behind what he himself raised in 2008.

And check out this quote from the Arab American Institute in the same article:
“[The] amendment to reinsert the language on Jerusalem was a clear case of putting pandering above responsible politics,” the Arab-American Institute said in statement put out after the amendment was made, saying it “flies in the face of decades of policy and the positions of President Obama, international peacemakers, and the American public at large.”
And they're almost right too. It does fly in the face of President Obama's position and in the face of 'international peacemakers.' But the rest of that statement is wrong.

Speaking of the World Trade Center, did you see that Andrew McCarthy is going all in with David Horowitz's Freedom Center? A man who knows his bombers.

http://frontpagemag.com/2012/frontpagemag-com/andrew-c-mccarthy-joins-the-freedom-center/

"He is a former attorney for the Justice Department’s Southern District of New York, best known for leading the successful prosecution against Omar Abdel Rahman, the “Blind Sheikh,” who masterminded the 1993 World Trade Center bombing and plotted to conduct simultaneous attacks on the Lincoln and Holland Tunnels, the United Nations complex, and the FBI’s lower Manhattan headquarters. Andrew later wrote the Justice Department’s 650-page brief when the Blind Sheikh appealed his conviction and defended the case in a successful two-day argument before the Second Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals.
Following the 9/11 attacks, Andrew supervised the U.S. attorney’s command post near Ground Zero, helping launch the largest investigation in American history, involving hundreds of law-enforcement and intelligence agents.


After leaving the Justice Department as the Chief Assistant U.S. Attorney in charge of the Southern District of New York’s upstate division, he served as a Special Assistant to the Deputy Secretary of Defense. He has been an adjunct professor at Fordham Law School and at his alma mater, New York Law School."

David Horowitz's latest:

He's talking about "muscular Zionism." Well, OK, but I'd like to see "muscular Zionism" maintaining a County Clerk's office with the GIS layers, title search info, etc etc. The presentation of the "settler movement" as some kind of radical squatters is not true, but is continued by the people themselves by not Embracing the Mudane by setting up Counties and County Clerks. Displaying the documentation in an organized fashion that shows up as Accidental Info now and then on the internet.

David Horowitz is amazing in his scope and depth... from the link above:

"But as Deutscher ruefully acknowledged later, the Jews who listened to the Zionists were still alive, while those who listened to Marxists like him were dead."

I'm unsure from this article whether David has noticed the $billions in Green $lu$h that some Israelis have been accepting from the current Obama Team. And whether he sees it a a rotting of "muscular Israel". Given the Dem campaign ads that Pres. Peres, Ehud Barak, Minister Liberman, Amb Oren, etc etc are showing up in, without objection, except the blatant misquoting of Oren, with no corresponding Republican quotes... I think the Green $lu$h has done its job for the Obama re-election effort. Unless they actually DO AGREE on things with Obama and WANT him re-elected. Which would be a MAJOR problem for me, as Obama is demolishing my country and my chldren's future prospects... Hmmm.. I wish David would look into this and see what he thinks is happening.
