DANIEL GREENFIELD: THE NEW WHITE HOUSE CHIEF OF STAFF BLAMED THE MOHAMMED VIDEO FOR BENGHAZI…..READ ABOUT HIM

http://frontpagemag.com/2013/dgreenfield/new-white-house-chief-of-staff-blamed-mo-video-called-for-a-world-where-islam-is-not-disrespected/print/

Denis McDonough’s appointment as Chief of Staff is probably the biggest win for the Soros Lobby since the Obama victory. Denis McDonough was a Senior Fellow at the George Soros funded Center for American Progress, which is the criminal brain behind the Frankenbody of Obama Inc. Delivering a speech after the Benghazi terrorist attack, McDonough profaned the very concept of religious freedom, at a conference on US policy and international religious freedom, where he eulogized the dead and blasted the Mohammed video, a worldview that eventually led Obama Inc. to see to the imprisonment of the filmmaker.

A top White House official has blasted as “truly abhorrent” the anti-Islam film which appears to have triggered an outpouring of violence against U.S. diplomatic posts in Egypt and Libya.

Speaking to an international religious freedom conference in Washington Wednesday, Deputy National Security Adviser Denis McDonough endorsed efforts to create “a world where the dignity of all people—and all faiths—is respected.”

According to his prepared remarks released by the White House, he then added: “This work takes on added urgency given the truly abhorrent video that has offended so many people–Muslims, and non-Muslims alike—in our country and around the world.”

McDonough also praised Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood thug Mohammed Morsi in this same speech.

Denis McDonough also appeared at the ADAMS Islamist center which is linked to Hamas and the Muslim Brotherhood to promote Obama’s outsourcing of “violent extremism prevention” to mosques.

ADAMS (All Dulles Area Muslim Society) is led by its Executive Director, Mohammad Majid. Majid is also the President of the largest Muslim Brotherhood / Hamas support entity in North America – the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA).

At ADAMS, Denis McDonough delivered a speech dedicated to whitewashing Islam and promoting Obama’s appeasement of Islamism.

For example, we know there are many different reasons why individuals—from many different faiths—succumb to terrorist ideologies. And there is no one easy profile of a terrorist. But based on extensive investigations, research and profiles of the violent extremists we’ve captured or arrested, and who falsely claim to be fighting in the name of Islam, we know that they all share one thing—they all believe that the United States is somehow at war with Islam, and that this justifies violence against Americans.

So we are actively and aggressively undermining that ideology. We’re exposing the lie that America and Islam are somehow in conflict. That is why President Obama has stated time and again that the United States is not and never will be at war with Islam.

Islam can be at war with the United States, but as long as Obama Inc. is in charge of America, we’ll continue living in denial.

We undermine al Qaeda’s ideology by showing that it is the power of nonviolence and democratic change that leads to progress, not senseless terrorism. And now people across the Arab world are proving the point.

Consider this. Al Qaeda’s second-in-command, Ayman Zawahiri, an Egyptian, has spent decades trying to overthrow the government of Egypt through terrorism. But in just a few short weeks, it was the people of Egypt—men and women, young and old, secular and religious, Muslims and Christians—who came together and changed their government, peacefully. It is the most dramatic change in the Arab world in decades, and al Qaeda had nothing to do with it.

Al Qaeda couldn’t overthrow Egypt’s government, but Obama could. And once Obama did that, the Muslim Brotherhood took over and Salafis launched attacks on the US Embassy in Cairo with the approval of the Muslim Brotherhood.

Al Qaeda is alive. American national interests are dead.

NATIONAL REVIEW ON WOMEN IN COMBAT

http://www.nationalreview.com/articles/338772/sex-and-violence-editors The Obama administration has doubled down on its social-transformation agenda, unilaterally deciding to overturn longstanding policy and integrate women into combat roles in the military. Give the administration this much: Unlike the question of gay marriage, the issue of women in combat was never something that Barack Obama felt obliged to pretend to be […]

DAVID SOLWAY: UNDERSTANDING THE EDUCATIONAL MESS WE ARE IN ****

ANDREW McCARTHY” THE COURT SLAPS DOWN OBAMA OVERREACH

http://pjmedia.com/andrewmccarthy/2013/01/25/the-makes-all-the-difference/ The D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals today invalidated one of President Obama’s most despotic overreaches to date: his attempt to use the Constitution’s recess appointment power to make appointments despite the absence of a recess. Judge David Sentelle’s opinion for the three-judge panel makes a powerful case for an originalist interpretation of the relevant […]

BRITISH M.P. DAVID WARD CLAIMS JEWS PERPETRATE ATROCITIES AND COMPARES MID EAST CONFLICT TO “HOLOCAUST” SEE NOTE PLEASE

http://www.thecommentator.com/article/2567/british_member_of_parliament_claims_liberated_jews_perpetuate_atrocities_compares_mid_east_conflict_to_holocaust

Liberal Democrat MP David Ward has been said to have ‘breached common decency’ for his remarks about “the Jews”, conflating the Middle East Conflict with the Holocaust

REGRETS…HE HAS A FEW….AND HAS TAKEN DOWN THE OFFENDING STATEMENT FROM HIS WEBSITE…..RSK

British Member of Parliament David Ward has issued a statement to the ‘Asian Image’ magazine, juxtaposing the Middle East Conflict with the Holocaust.

As Holocaust Memorial Day is to be observed on Sunday, the Liberal Democrat MP, upon signing the Holocaust Educational Trust’s Book of Commitment in the House of Commons, stated:

“Having visited Auschwitz twice – once with my family and once with local schools – I am saddened that the Jews, who suffered unbelievable levels of persecution during the Holocaust, could within a few years of liberation from the death camps be inflicting atrocities on Palestinians in the new State of Israel and continue to do so on a daily basis in the West Bank and Gaza.”

Ward’s statements come at a particularly sensitive time, and many will argue that the comments indeed are in breach of the European Union Monitoring Centre’s definition on anti-Semitism, of which it is stated that, “Denying the fact, scope, mechanisms (e.g. gas chambers) or intentionality of the genocide of the Jewish people at the hands of National Socialist Germany and its supporters and accomplices during World War II (the Holocaust)” is a particular example of anti-Semitism.

Ward’s comments may be said to fall foul of the definition, as they actively seek to contrast the Middle East conflict, which is indeed an ongoing conflict between various parties, with the oppression and mass slaughter of the Jews under Nazi Germany.

David Ward is the Member of Parliament for Bradford East, the constituency that neighbours George Galloway’s Bradford West. Campaigners have told The Commentator that Ward’s comments are ‘disgusting, deplorable and factually inaccurate, bordering on anti-Semitism and breaching all levels of common decency in the run up to Holocaust Memorial Day”.

‘Israel to boycott UNHRC despite US protestations’

GENEVA – Israel is expected to boycott the UN Human Rights Council next week despite the United States urging its ally to show up for an examination of its record, the US ambassador said on Thursday.

The Jewish state is scheduled to be in the dock of the Geneva rights forum on Tuesday, Jan. 29 as part of the Universal Periodic Review (UPR) process, the council’s regular scrutiny of all United Nations member states.
“They (Israeli officials) signalled that they want it postponed. It is very unlikely they will participate on the 29th,” US human rights ambassador Eileen Chamberlain Donahoe told reporters in Geneva.

“I’m fairly optimistic we will find a solution that does not undermine universality or cooperation. That is my hope.”

Israel’s last review was in December 2008, when it attended. A boycott would be unprecedented and diplomats fear other countries might follow suit to avoid scrutiny of their human rights records.

Israel suspended relations with the council last May because of what it called an inherent bias against it, and has informally told the council’s president, Poland’s ambassador, that it wants the session postponed, a UN spokesman said.

“A decision will be taken in the event Israel does not show up for its UPR, the council will decide on a course of action. States are working very hard behind the scenes to come up with a solution,” council spokesman Rolando Gomez told Reuters.

Islamic states, often led by Pakistan and Iran in the forum, would have to agree to any postponement of the examination of Israel’s record. The next UPR sessions are in April and October.

A team of UN investigators, set up by the council last year, is due to report soon on whether Jewish settlements in the Palestinian territories violate international human rights law. Washington cast the only vote against the initiative brought by the Palestinian Authority.
