Pelosi, Democrats fume at Netanyahu “condescension”

Mar 3, 2015 7:36 pm By Robert Spencer

PelosiIran is a threat to Israel and the free world in general? The Democrats know that. Israel’s relationship with the U.S. should be above politics? They know that. Israel will stand alone if it has to? They know that. And they don’t appreciate being reminded of facts they’re ignoring and principles they’re betraying.

“Pelosi, Democrats furious over Netanyahu ‘condescension,'” by Laurie Kellman, Associated Press, March 3, 2015:

WASHINGTON (AP) — House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi politely stood and clapped when Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu entered the House chamber for his long-awaited, and highly controversial, speech to Congress. The longer he spoke, the less enthusiastic she got.

At one point, when Netanyahu suggested his nation’s relationship with the United States should be above politics, Pelosi looked at her lap and shook her head. When he declared that, “if Israel has to stand alone, Israel will stand,” Pelosi threw her hands up in exasperation. More than once, she turned to her deputy, Rep. Steny Hoyer of Maryland, and appeared to vent. And even before Netanyahu had begun his ascent up the center aisle toward the exit, Pelosi pivoted and headed out a different door and into the Democratic cloakroom.

“I was near tears throughout the prime minister’s speech — saddened by the insult to the intelligence of the United States,” she fumed in a statement afterward, adding that she didn’t appreciate “the condescension toward our knowledge of the threat posed by Iran and our broader commitment to preventing nuclear proliferation.”

Pelosi’s was the highest-profile sign that Netanyahu had inflamed his relationship with some congressional Democrats with his address to Congress, a 39-minute warning that Obama’s negotiations on limiting Iran’s nuclear capability would all but guarantee that Tehran gets nuclear weapons. Even as he spoke, the Obama administration pressed on with those talks, and the president dismissed Netanyahu’s speech by noting that “foreign policy runs through the executive branch and the president, not through other channels.”

More than four dozen Democrats skipped the speech altogether, offended by an array of developments before they even got to the policy substance of the speech itself….

“Prime Minister Netanyahu’s speech was not condescending,” said Rep. Brad Sherman, D-Calif., who was one of the lawmakers who escorted Netanyahu into the House chamber. “Every speech contains passages which remind the audience of facts they already know, and conclusions with which they already agree. That is not condescension; that is oratory.”

But Cohen and 11 other House Democrats later expounded on their multiple frustrations with the speech, including the substance. His statement about Israel standing alone particularly chafed.

“I think that’s delusional,” said Rep. Earl Blumenauer, D-Ore., who skipped the speech. “The notion somehow that he thinks that Israel can just bull through this on their own against the world … Israelis don’t believe that.”

“What I heard today felt to me like an effort to stampede the United States into war once again,” said Rep. Jan Schakowsky, D-Ill., who also skipped the speech.

Rep. John Yarmuth, D-Ky., said the speech was “straight out of the Dick Cheney playbook — fearmongering at its worst.”

      I AM SORRY TO WRITE THIS — AS A 66 YEAR OLD LIFELONG DEMOCRAT :

      Dems were once the courageous party of Roosevelt and Truman, defenders of freedom during World War II, statesmen who prevailed over Japanese supremacism, and assured that America would survive.

      In pathetic contrast, our Dem party “leadership” tenure in 2015 includes VERY WEALTHY Nancy Pelosi, who — if she considers this at all — thinks the Islamo-Realism of Spencer and Geller is concocted.

      Looking at her behavior during Netanyahu’s speech, I must conclude that she was off her depression medication OR boozed up early in the day.

        “Dems were once the courageous party…”

        That’s because once they were the liberal party. They were Liberals. But a change took place some time in the past few decades and now they aren’t liberals at all any more. If they were, they’d be following Robert Spencer’s lead on telling the truth about Islam’s fascism and hate mongering and taking action against it — like Bill Maher does. He is a Liberal. Now the Dems are the LEFTIST party. They are Leftists, not Liberals. Hard leftists. Fascist leftists. And their leading politicians are usually rich fascist leftists — who never have to deal with difficult reality in their own personal lives and develop a realistic perspective on the world. Like Nancy Pelosi.

          @Don: Aptly put. I consider myself liberal because I have liberal values like Bill Maher. I am horrified by what the leftists in the Democratic party have been doing (and not doing).

          The political left has gone so far left that it is now some kind of fascism. Nothing the Democratic party has been doing makes any sense to me (using the greater good for our country and world as a frame work for reference).

        Nah.
        It’s just that the US and assorted Dems are used to condescending to Israel and Jews.
        The ones they suck up to are the Muslims, Jihadis, Saudis etc.

        But treating Jews as serious political identities? Only if they’re betraying Israel!!

        Plus, with their campaign to disguise Islam as a candy-flosslala religion, they don’t like someone else pointing out reality.

        Hence – the hissy fit.

        I’m am the quintessential Irish-Catholic Bostonian and a product of the 1950’s. Being a Democrat was part of our DNA. Republicans were viewed as the party of the country club snobs. At some point, exactly when is hard to nail down, but a subtle political inversion took place. Democrats evolved into the country club snobs, and Republicans became the champions of the common folk.

        As for Nancy Pelosi, I kind of feel sorry for her. She obviously has lost any ability to reason. I am a little surprised that the good people of California haven’t politely advised her start enjoying retirement.

        Ms. Pelosi is a bigot towards a Jew who just happened to have been an American Citizen before becoming an Israeli Citizen. Can we allow a bigot to get away with her behavior calling this previous American who is now an Israeli President “Condescending”. Well, i personally believe she is the Condescending Jew hater who needs to apologize to Bibi and respect our only ally in the Middle East who is willing to fight against our enemies. She and her Democrat Cohorts need to be recognized for their bigotry and need to be censured in the House.

    We know when a treaty was signed concerning Tripoli when the Muslims were capturing American Vessels, the American President dare not say we were a Christian nation…. Now we have John Kerry negotiating with Iran, a Muslim nation who hates Christians and Jews, and will not speak truthfully to infidels–how will the U. S. be able to expect the Iranians to honor anything on a treaty? Just plain stupidity. Here we have our only democracy’s leader in the Middle East who was born in America and was an American Citizen, now here in our country whom we can trust, treated by this Administration and the Democrats in Congress as an Infidel!!!!! And they call Republicans as racist? The Democrats are both Jew and Christian bigots.
    We have a chance to make America energy independent of Muslim influence, but this President does not sign the XL Pipeline Bill. More and more it is clear where this President’s heart lies, with his Muslim Brotherhood. How can this be confused with anything else other than his disdain for Christians and Jews.

      Remember; our Congressmen/women & Senators look for our letters, and actually count them… and multiply by some number, in order to see which way the wind is blowing. So, let’s blow them away with a flood of hand-written letters & emails, okay? We the people actually matter to these CongressPeople, see?

    Just one more piece of evidence that any Jewish-American continuing to vote Democrat does indeed do their bit to invalidate one of the longest held stereotypes of Jews (and virtually the only good one), that being, speaking in the aggregate, that Jews have above average intelliigence.

    As for Pelosi herself, she is so awful that she has managed, rather as Ted Kennedy did, to become a parody of herself. The woman is a national disgrace. But then again she is worth a barrel full of laughs.

    I have written all this so that you can know what was in my mind before I wrote it.

    Yet these SAME Democrats are now Complaining about a Speech they didn’t even hear, and are Lambasting it as though they HAD ACTUALLY listened to it, Considered it, and Weighed the Points ?.

    It’s quite obvious that they had ALREADY made their minds up in Advance, that they were going to Fume over and Lambast the Speech no matter WHAT Netanyahu said, and their Talking Points were already pre-Prepared in Advance.

    It’s also obvious that whatever they CLAIM that they DO know about the Speech, they learned Second Hand through Similar Minded BIASED word of Mouth, Chatter , and Personal Opinions, that Agreed with THEIR Points of View.

    They walked off like Spoiled, Pouting Children, and did not even hear the speech, so they really know NOTHING about it.

    House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is either a fool or ideologically blinkered. The ‘agreement’ Obama seems so desperate to make with Iran is not, in its current form, going to impress America’s allies. If the US can blithely shove Israel under a bus, why should the rest of us expect any better treatment? Obama behaved in the same way as Netanyahu when he last visited Australia (in fact his behaviour was worse – the US had no existential threat involved) – does American exceptionalism apply to their Presidents? I didn’t vote for Tony Abbott, but I wasn’t thrilled at the cavalier treatment he received either – something the US seems prone to do under the current administration….and I’m speaking as an Americaphile.

    • Dexter L Wilson says

      Mar 4, 2015 at 12:55 pm

      You speak of American Exceptionalism, there is no such thing. You might start with a book by Susie Federer concerning some of the miracles that saved our country and made it what was. It is the Exceptional God YHWH and His Son Jesus that has made our country great.
      Here is statistical scientific proof that God is:

      The Bible, with the Hebrew Old Testament Text and the original Greek New Testament does things that no other religious text of any other World Religion does; demonstrating that only the Creator could have, through 44 inspired writers, written this book. The scribes who copied the original Hebrew Old Testament text copied carefully every letter, jot and tittle. As they read the copied text, if a single letter, jot, or tittle mistake was made, they would destroy all that had been written and start over.

      Ivan Panin, a Harvard Hebrew, Greek, and Mathematical Scholar researched the numerical values of the Hebrew and Greek letters. He sent 43,000 pages of numerical research to the Nobel Research Committee in 1900, and they could not refute the fact that God through 44 inspired writers wrote the Bible.

      Del Washburn has written two books expanding on the numerical values, “Theomatics” and “Theomatics II”. (See http://www.biblecode.com ).

      The most amazing proof that the Creator of the Universe wrote the Bible through the inspired men of God is the Equidistant Letter Sequences. The NSA tried to duplicate such coding and failed. Harold Gans, the lead code breaker for the NSA, before he died, satisfied himself that God wrote the Bible, by using a mathematical formula to determine the probabilities involved in creating codes throughout the surface text of the Old Testament (www.biblecodedigest.com ). Through the code, the multitude of information reads like yesterdays news–you must know the names, events, persons involved, locations, and/or the dates. For this reason it can not be used prophetically.

      The original text of the Old and New Testament with the letter numeric values and the multitude of Equidistant Letter Sequences should be enough to prove to anyone that the God of the Bible, is our Creator. There are thousands of words, names, sentences and locations encoded in the Old Testament. If you are thinking that some super intelligence wrote this book other than God, God reminds you from Numbers 23’19”, “God is not a man that He should lie….” No human or computer can duplicate anything resembling the quantity of ELS coding in surface text like the Bible does. There are even codes between books, God knowing which books would be canonized.

      In Ezekiel 36′ 25″-27″ it describes God’s way of salvation–“I will remove your stoney heart and give you a heart of flesh (being born again and receiving Jesus as your Savior), I will sprinkle you with water and make you clean (water baptism), and put my Spirit in you to cause you to walk in my laws and statutes (receiving the Baptism of the Holy Spirit).

      The Bible is the Manufacturer’s Handbook for Planet Earth!

      Ivan Panin corrected an Exhaustive Bible Concordance using what he called the Bible Numerics. He said if there were 2 words found in the Greek New Testament in a sentence and you wanted to know which word to use, the word that harmonized with the sentence numerically was the correct word. He provided a Greek Numeric New Testament. Example of Bible Numerics: In the first sentence in the Old Testament, Genesis 1’1″, every verb is divisible by 7, every noun, and more; there are over 34 features of the number 7 in just this one sentence and these type features are consistent throughout the Bible.

      JUST A FEW of the codes found (NOT INCLUDING ALL THE ONES THAT ARE BEING FOUND ONGOING): Hitler, Holocaust, Eichmann, Fuhrer, Meinkampf, Berlin, Germany, Belson, King of the Nazis, Crematoria for my Sons, (for statistical purposes only-there are more) 66 names of Rabbis-the cities in which they lived-dates of death, Anwar Sadat-1981-parade-shot-gunfire-Chaled (his assassin), Yitzchak Rabin-Israel-will be murdered-date born-date of death-location of the assassination-assassin’s name-Oslo Peace Process, both Wars in the Gulf, George Bush, Saddam Hussein-America Schwarzkopf-the missiles will terrify-Scud B-they shut the door-3rd of Shavat, empty the gas, Murrah Building-Tim-McVeigh-slaughter-desolate, (in Genesis 38′) all the ancestors of King David, (in Genesis)25 trees are named, (between Isaiah 52′ and 55′) Behold the Blood of Jesus-Let Him Be Crucified-Mary-Joseph-Jesus is my Name-all the disciples names,Nazarene, Messiah, Shiloh, Passover, Galilee, Herod, Annas, Caiaphas Caesar, The evil Roman City, (in Zechariah 9’13”)Jesus, (in Zachariah 11’13”)Jesus, (in Daniel 9’26”) The Peace Offering, (in Micah 5’1-2″ Mary, Joseph, and Jesus(Yeshua),(in Matthew 24’7 through 48″) Jesus, Nazareth, Mercy, Lamb, (in Mark 8’9″ through Mark 9’2″) Jesus, Blood, Son, Innocent, Lamb, (in John 5’5″-13″) Jesus, Nazareth, Lamb, the name of the person most responsible for all the satellites circling the Earth and their names—–and on and on and on and on. I don’t think all of the codes will be found. Who knows, the Old Testament in the original Hebrew may have the list of those whose names are written in the BOOK OF LIFE.
      NO OTHER RELIGION HAS A BOOK THAT DOES THIS. NONE.

        Point taken. I must say though, I was referring to President Obama’s evident belief that America’s Manifest destiny is manifest in his own wonderful self. <> I was one of the huge number of ‘liberals’ who was delighted when he was elected. I’m still happy America voted herself a black president – I just now wish it hadn’t been Obama. Put bluntly – he’s been somewhat of a disappointment.

    Hello all

    Bright sunny day here in the UK …how is it for you peoples….don’t tell me …let me guess…

    Nice and sunny outside but you are still chilled to the bone …ah yes … I am right.

    Who could have possibly imagined just 5 years back that the US president would skip a speech by the prime Minister of Israel and leave that darling Nancy …”in charge” so to speak …and she walked out too.

    And to boot Obama had a stinging rebuke for Netin… later on all he has managed to do is alienate Israel further.

    People of the USA…it is time to face facts…like the peoples of the UK no longer have leaders like Churchill and we are left with the Camerons and Millibands …so too this is rapidly approaching in the US.

    Your leaders are the Obhama, the Pelosis and the Hillarys…there is none other *who will be elected*.
    Clearly this means huge influx of rufugess and greater multiculturism.

    I believe we will see an Assura marcjh next to ground zero within the next decade ….I want you all to come and watch!!!

    Much more Later …

      Got some AWFUL news for you, Rezali.

      Muslim populations in the Dar al-Islam are undergoing an unprecedented demographic decline (dare I say collapse) as documented most recently by Nicholas Eberstadt and Apoorva Shah in the 1 June 2014 issue of Policy Review. Europe and Japan have gone through the transition and are weathering quite well – Muslim countries with their parlous economies won’t get through the coming decades in anywhere so well. Iran, that font of Shi’ite rectitude has had a decline in the population growth rate greater than anything in the historical record. And Turkey, Morocco, Tunisia and Libya are close behind. By 2040, the majority or military age males in Turkey are going to be Kurds. And Persians will be a minority in their homeland. Egypt can’t feed itself, Syria and Iraq’s population growth rates are dropping….I guess the Dar al-Islam’s not doing too well is it, melekha?

      Better yet – Muslim reproductive growth rates in the West are dropping. Their growth rates are being sustained PRIMARILY by immigration – that most fragile of mechanisms which a determined government could easily cut off.

      And the Western Diaspora countries are in no risk f being demographically conquered by Muslims – especially as anti-immigration (for which read anti-Muslim immigration sentiment) is growing rapidly. So I don’t see the West falling to your people – we’ll see a Balkanized and it will be a tragedy, and costly in human lives – but it won’t be the victory subliterate Muslim natalists fantasize about. If we lose a lot of Britain and the Scandinavian Countries, parts of France and Germany – you can be sure the non-Muslim portions will rapidly develop the same policies towards your coreligionists that you are so amply displaying towards the Kaffir.

      Don’t gloat, Rezali. It’ll be a tragedy. And far, far more so for the acopic, under-educated, poorly employable Muslim masses than for the better educated, far better socialized infidels. The infidels will yet have time for the last laugh.

      As for Pelosi and Obama and Cameron – they’ll be out of power soon enough. And the rising generation is much less Multi-Kulti than their parents. You might not like living among the over-trustful kaffir then.

        Well done Phil. That was perfect. However, I doubt if he understood much of your educated use of the English language!! I may be wrong, but in the longer term, when organisations like the EDL become broader based with a smattering of an intellectuals and a greater middle class representation, the tide may turn and UKIP may have developed a spine to deal with Islam head on. You are right, the apologist for Islam, Cameron, will not last forever.

      rezali the repulsive is back again, I see, trying to sow some more ham fisted dawa. 🙂

      ”Bright sunny day here in the UK … ”

      But you’re not *in* the UK, are you, dumkopf ? Any more than you’re a woman.

      You’re sitting in pakicrapistan, because you’re too much of a yellow belly to get yourself over to Syria and fight alongside your ‘bros’. The wifies might get up to shenanigans while you’re away, and you just can’t cope with all those ‘whispers and pointing fingers’. On the other hand, I expect your beard is doing well …

      ”Who could have possibly imagined just 5 years back that the US president would skip a speech by the prime Minister of Israel and leave that darling Nancy …”in charge” so to speak …and she walked out too”

      Because a bunch of dim and complicit leftards can’t bear to hear the truth, spoken by a brave, intelligent statesman with buckets of integrity. They won’t be in power for forever, you know.

      ” … the peoples of the UK no longer have leaders like Churchill and we are left with the Camerons and Millibands … ”

      Who’s ‘we’, mohammedan ? Even if I’m mistaken, and you are one of the mohammedan parasites infesting my country, **you are not one of us, and you never will be**.

      As for the camorons, the milibands et al, they won’t last forever either. Nigel Farage and Paul Weston are up and coming, and garnering *loads* of support. Ten years from now, chumbawumba, all you mohammedan scum will be put in your place, and kept there.

      ”I believe we will see an Assura marcjh next to ground zero within the next decade ….I want you all to come and watch!!!”

      Pigs will fly, before that ever happens !

      More later, chumbawumba !

      I would feel ashamed, but thanks G-d I was not born in the religion of peace, my family paid tax to them big time in the past. But as you are a muzzie, I guess you don’t care Shit about it, because that is just the way you guys are.

    The only good thing about Obama and Pelosi is that their behaviour will insure that the next President will not be a democrat, If American democracy is still around by then.

  25. jwarpinski says

    Mar 4, 2015 at 6:58 am

    Over the past 50 years the democrats have become fascists and the republicans have become what the democrats used to be. After this speech the Congress capitulated once again to Obama’s amnesty funding agenda, going back once again on what they promised in November election. The democrats are motivated to do what they do by a rabid anti-God ideology; the republicans by their desire to stay in office and enrich themselves and their cronies. They don’t have much use for God either. Neither party represents the majority of working Americans.

    The world must back Israel against the fundamentalist Islam of both the vile Iranian variety and of the Islamic State. I love Iranian people, but they are too scared to rise up and send packing their Nazi Mullas. Netanyahu knows the only way forward is to completely destroy all their centrifuges, etc. That muslim, Obama, along with the muslim CIA boss, would never do this because they want to see Islamic supremacism throughout the world. Cameron, the touter of “the religion of peace”, is the same. He has got his head stuck so far up Obama’s arse that he can only see his tonsils and nothing else! He will follow Obama, whatever. I’m a liberal Brit, but I too would advise you guys to swamp Congress persons with letters supporting Netanyahu. Those Dems need to worry about their seats!!

    While one of the most masterful and cogent speeches ever heard in Congress was being delivered by a great statesman, Obama’s democrat lackeys clapped unenthusiastically while giving Netanyahu the stink-eye.

    It’s understandable why Obama wanted to keep the Prime Minister away from that audience: The contrast betweet the two men couldn’t have been more apparent. Obama will never again be able to take the podium and address Congress while pretending to be a leader……. because America has just seen what a great leader looks like.

    I thought I was listening to the POTUS when Netanyahu spoke. So did the congress based on there reactions. Obama has taken away the peoples pride in this country. Obama has changed this country so much for the worse.
    We need to get Obama and his cronies out of Washington and put in a leader who has real leadership abilities and a spine.

    Netanyahu is a leader who has both.

  29. Lioness says

    Mar 4, 2015 at 11:00 am

    Obama hates Jews, just like it is prescribed in the Quran. He is hoping for the demise of the state of Israel, to be replaced by a muslim state and a caliphate in the Middle East . He is cozy with the Muslim Brotherhood and is hoping to bring them back to power in Egypt, so they can aid in terror against Israel. Of course he did not want to see Netanyahu, he does not disguise his hatred for him. He rather cozy up to Iran, who wants to destroy America as well as Israel.

Just think of how many tax dollars he would save per year. No handouts to muslim nations, no military aid, Hed clean out the rot in universities, A US army base in the west bank…lol, The Golan, West Bank, and Jerusalem will be recognised as Jewish Land, and the effects around the muslim world will be catastrophic. Starvation, disease civil war, rape pillage and plundering, and worst of all ever so slowly creeping sharia law, right back to the seventh century. Now theres a reality show, actually Im just dreaming!

      Better birth certificate! Better brain! Better speech! Better actions! Wow!

    “I was near tears throughout the prime minister’s speech — saddened by the insult to the intelligence of the United States,” she fumed in a statement afterward, adding that she didn’t appreciate “the condescension toward our knowledge of the threat posed by Iran and our broader commitment to preventing nuclear proliferation.”

    ms Pelosi’s hypocrisy is noted

    Mar 4, 2015 at 2:30 pm

    Is this the same N Pelosi, whose bestie President took himself off to Cairo U immediately after his election and did a lot to see Mubarrak deposed and the MB’s Morsi elected?
    Talk about a visiting leader talking over the head of his host!
    Luckily the Egyptians saw the error and got rid of Morsi and installed al Si Si.
    The latter has actually DONE what BHO should have done, which is to tell the Imams that their incitement is making Islam a by word for blood and terror.

    BIBI NETANYAHU HAS COURAGEOUSLY EXPOSED TO ALL THE WORLD

    Barack Hussein Obama for the weak, dangerous, blundering, reckless, rank amateur that he is. And.standing shoulder to shoulder with Netanyahu are the vast majority of US lawmakers, 55% of the US military and 65% of Iraq and Afghanistan war veterans all of whom give Obama a well deserved Grade D as Commander in Chief. Add to this the disillusionment of most Americans with Obama’s handling of foreign policy and you have a president with no credibility in world affairs blindly midwifing the deadliest and most dangerous Islamic regime on earth in becoming a nuclear armed terrorist state. Even if it means destroying Iran with nuclear weapons it must not get the bomb.

  36. alyn21 says

    Mar 4, 2015 at 7:31 pm

    The Democratic Party has always had excellent PR. The reality has been quite different. Let us not forget that it was the Democratic party that supported the Jim Crow laws in the South. Later on we had Roosevelt whose only real accomplishment was making radio announcements during the Depression that people had nothing to fear but fear itself. This was being done while people were losing their homes,their businesses and were travelling from one end of the country to the other looking for work. The other Roosevelt claim to fame was that he closed the borders to Jews fleeing the Nazis in WW2 resulting in millions of deaths that could have been avoided. Later on the Democratic party introduced affirmative action programs that discriminated against qualified white Americans in favour of unqualified Black Americans.
    Now we have a Democratic Party supporting muslim extremists and will likely be responsible for Iran being able to produce a bomb without any significant opposition.
    In reality the only real Liberals in Democratic history were JFK, Lyndon Johnson and perhaps Harry Truman. The rest of them were either right wing bigots or left wing racists. That is your Democratic party.

    In the West, we have a wondrous diversity of self-hatred — both in terms of the groups indulging in it, and in the degrees and kinds of (self-)hatred involved.

    We have, from the top down, Westerners hating their own West (taking various forms and degrees, all bubbling and percolating out of an amorphous welter of white guilt at our “shameful chapters” of history, of Colonialism, etc., taken to an irrational excess (PC MC, normative Leftism) or to a morbidly deformed excess (radical Leftism).

    Next down the modern West has scads and scads of self-hating Christians; and a subspecies of that would be the “recovering Catholic” phenomenon.

    Then we have self-hating Americans (ashamed of their “shameful chapters” including Vietnam and “McCarthyism” and Japanese-American internment, etc.); self-hating Brits (ashamed of their Colonies, ashamed of what they did to the Irish, etc.); self-hating Frenchmen (e.g., resting on decades of assbackward hyper-criticism of their Algerian colony and the subsequent war (e.g., defending against the Algerian Jihad against them) not to mention having such a widespread subculture of anti-Le Penism); self-hating Norwegians, Swedishs, Germans; and so forth.

    Let’s see, what else do we have…? Oh yes: self-hating whites (how could I forget?).

    Anywho, this story featured above about the Democratic reaction against Netanyahu not only demonstrates the generalized Western self-hatred, but also yet another subcategory of that general theme: Jewish self-hatred.

    For example, note in the story quoted above:

    But Cohen and 11 other House Democrats later expounded on their multiple frustrations with the speech, including the substance. His statement about Israel standing alone particularly chafed.

    That would be Stephen Ira “Steve” Cohen (born May 24, 1949) — U.S. Representative for Tennessee’s 9th congressional district, serving since 2007. He is a member of the Democratic Party… Cohen is Tennessee’s first Jewish congressman.

    The article goes on:

    “I think that’s delusional,” said Rep. Earl Blumenauer, D-Ore., who skipped the speech. “The notion somehow that he thinks that Israel can just bull through this on their own against the world … Israelis don’t believe that.”

    according to Wikipedia’s page on Blumenauer: “Religion: Judaism”

    “What I heard today felt to me like an effort to stampede the United States into war once again,” said Rep. Jan Schakowsky, D-Ill., who also skipped the speech.

    according to Wikipedia’s page on Schakowsky: “Her parents were Jewish immigrants, her father from Lithuania and her mother from Russia.”

    The craven reactions of these three Demcrats would be like three African-American politicians sniping at a great speech by Martin Luther King, Jr.

    Shame on them.

    Nancy Pelosi probably fumes when she looks into a mirror! As she is pimping (would that be
    pimpetting?) for the islamo-marxist dictator, she should show the way to the future and wear the full burkha!

    Mullah Barak will soon issea “fatwa” calling for sharia-law in the US. His “transformation” is virtually complete, thanks to the great inactivity, silence and co-operation of the sniveling Quislings who run the congress.

    No opposition leads to totalitarianism!

    “Fearmongering”?? Anyone who does not fear Iran acquiring nuclear capabilities NEEDS to be sat down and lectured to. And who better than the Israeli PM to do the lecturing? With his country more threatened than any other, and Obama playing diplomatic games with Islamists?

    It seems to me a case, once again, of Jews not being permitted to defend themselves; much better to appease the Islamists; doesn’t matter if another 6 million Jews are annihilated. Even if it doesn’t matter to Barack Obama – and of course it doesn’t – we still have the absolute right to stand up and defend ourselves. Whether it be by writing, speaking or bombing. And let no-one – especially not an Islamist President – stop us from doing so.
