Pull up a chair and a grab a notepad while our president lies on a couch and speaks of his father, his youth in Indonesia, and the evils of western colonialism. Yes, we are all now to be Obamas national therapists. The news cycle must never upset the delicate balance of his mind, lest he lose that placid demeanor and become angry or sullen.
American media dutifully fulfills this purpose daily, serving up only the stuff that sustains Obamas fragile psyche.
I wrote that the Chapel Hill killings story would evaporate by today because it couldnt be presented as a hate crime. I was mostly right.
Its gone from NBC News, and not even in the last 50 stories list on CNN, where even the Jackie Robinson Little League scandal got front page billing. ABCs got nothing on ittheir website looks like some rehash of Yahoo from 1997, by the way, thousands of irrelevant, garish and useless links from around the Internet (such as Scarlett Johansson Reportedly Buys LA Homewho cares and why is this the third story on the front page?).
The New York Times hasnt covered Chapel Hill since Friday. The Washington Post had a story on it Saturday, from the Palestinian angle. I didnt know this story had a Palestinian angle, but it only proves my point that if the story cant be connected to the Crusades, Jim Crow or Israel, it would die.
The Chapel Hill story isnt even on Fox News.
They all led with the Copenhagen shootings. Or I should say Copenhagen killing. A man put up to 30 rounds from an automatic weapon into a free speech eventa talk by Swedish cartoonist Lars Viks. Viks is one of the new class of marked people who have drawn cartoons of Mohammed. He then put more rounds into a synagogue. Theres only one group of people who go to a synagogue.
Jews. Jews who grow up in Israel have a different experience than young rich sons of African academics. Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu has no need of group therapy to salve his conscience. His concerns are more immediate and existential. Netanyahus very presence disturbs Obamas reality distortion bubble and causes his entire worldview to wobble.
The press is scared to penetrate Obamas bubble, even fair and balanced press. They call it terror as if it rises up from a crevice at the oceans bottom like Godzilla emerging from the sea. Terror is handled as some alien force uncoupled from the human experience. What a lie: terror is committed by people: evil, terrible human beings who look just like we do. Theres no such thing as a war on terror, only a war on people who commit it.
Although the unidentified Copenagen shooter was described as 25-30 year old man, wearing a bandana partially covering his face. Fox News is holding off on calling this a hate crime, relying on a quote from Netanyahu to make that connection.
"Again, Jews were murdered on European soil just because they were Jews," Netanyahu said at the start of his Cabinet meeting Sunday. "This wave of attacks is expected to continue, as well as murderous anti-Semitic attacks. Jews deserve security in every country, but we say to our Jewish brothers and sisters, Israel is your home."Did I mention that the only victim of the Copenhagen killing was a Jew? He was guarding the synagogue, and was shot along with two policemen, who both survived.
So, the Copenhagen killing, which is, on its face, a hate crime with the exact same fingerprint as the Paris killings, isnt being called a hate crime by anyone other than the Israeli PM. In fact, NBCs website, with no irony at all, strings together a second story appearing below the Copenhagen coverage, titled Finsbury Park Mosque Opens Doors to New Era After Expelling Extremists which reads like a travelogue brochure for Visit My Mosque Day. I only found that because I searched for the word hate in the Copenhagen article and my browser highlighted this sentence: Finsbury Park was one of 20 mosques to participate in the initiative. The mosque received hate mail after the attacks ... so we decided to get involved, Omour added.
To NBC, the only hate is in the form of mail to a mosque. Bullets dont apply.
Back to Chapel Hill. I was wrong about the story evaporating on CBS News. Their headline is How hard would it be to prove Chapel Hill killings were a hate crime? Front page, just to the right of the Copenhagen story. The first answer that occurs to me is harder than the Copenhagen killing.
Lets delve further.
After rehashing what we know about the Chapel Hill murdersthree young university students, Deah and Yusor Barakat, and Yusors younger sister Razan were gunned down by a madman, Craig Stephen Hicksthe article answers its own question.
"It's very hard" to prove a hate crime, according to Joseph Kennedy, a law professor at the University of North Carolina. "It's always hard to get into someone's head. It's always hard to prove motive."There you go. This open-and-shut murder case is not going to be handled as a hate crime. But of course, it will. The federal government will exhaustively search for any evidence to try this as a civil rights case because the victims are Muslim."It's not enough if it's one of the reasons. It has to be the main reason why they committed the crime," Kennedy said. "You can't prosecute someone for a hate crime simply because of past hate speech or even because of membership in a hate group."
Every time a Muslim goes out and kills Jews, around the world, the media will stick to terms like copycat or incited and refer to the Charlie Hebdo attack. They wont call it what it is: targeted hate, especially against Jews.
Because of the active do-nothingness and abdication of American moral authority by President Obama, we are all suffering the consequences: we cant admit that Islam calls for death to infidels, and those who believe it seek to kill us, especially Jews, without somehow proving that everyone else hates Muslims just as much.
But its just not so.
Believing what isnt true as Barack Obamas guilt therapy is collective insanity worthy of cult status. We must take a hint from Netanyahu, and stop being scared to pierce the bubble.
Re the photos above, I’ll take the one on the left.
"Thou shalt not speak, neither thinkest thou, any word or thought against Thy Lord And Savior The Obama, The Messiah, The Won, lest thou be revealed as racist, and other diverse names besides."
Here endeth the lesson.
"Don't you dare try and paint all of Islam with the same brush!"
Judas effing priest
All this doesn’t explain Valerie Jarrett. The anti colonialist explanation is appealing because it deflects the gaze from a simpler but less politically correct conclusion that William of Ockham would surely reach were he here today. The man is an activist Moslem performing his obligations as outlined in the Moslem operating manual. When he passes from he scene he will go straight to the gardens with rivers flowing under them and there meet his houris or whatever it is that awaits him yhere.
If the west would survive then perhaps Islam must needs be painted with a nuclear brush.
