On the heels of John McCain's strong statement to Israel and the Jews that he would "not allow a second Holocaust" to happen, Barack Hussein Obama was asked whether he'd prevent a second Holocaust by reporters during his trip to Israel.
The setting for the question is notable. It was just before he made a photo op visit to "Yad VaShem," the Holocaust museum in Israel.
What is also notable was Obama's "response" and how it was "covered" by the Mainstream media. While the Wall Street Journal's Jay Solomon and Cam Simpson noted the question, they did not note the response. Why not?
Well, ABC News' Jake Tapper did, and it's telling and frightening:
Upon arrival at Yad Vashem, Obama was greeted by Avner Shalev, chairman of Yad Vashem.
An Israeli journalist called out to Obama: "Can you ensure that there will be no second Holocaust?"
Obama walked into the museum's main building without responding. . . .

He’s probably just being modest because of his uncle that liberated Auschwitz and all that.
Non-story. His handlers have him trained.
He learned his lesson concerning “shouting journalists” with the “sweetheart” comment.
None of this should come as surprise to any of us.
It is obvious, based on the people he has chosen to call his friends over the last 25 years or so, that B. Hussein Obama is anti-Semitic.
You shall be known by the company you keep... Wright, Farrakahn, etc...
“Will we stand for the human rights of the dissident in Burma, the blogger in Iran, or the voter in Zimbabwe? Will we give meaning to the words “never again” in Darfur?”
Why would Obama say he would prevent a second Holocaust? The above is from his speech in Berlin today. You can look at each thing he mentions, Darfur, Iran, Burma, and Zimbabwe and see he talks about all, but has done nothing about any. He stiffs the wounded soldiers at Landsthul and goes to the Ritz-Carlston to work out. That is all one needs to know about the Messiah, it is all about him and nothing else.
but when is going to end the US ‘occupation’ of Germany we have had troops there for more than 60 years after the war has ended?
Sure wish somebody had pulled the plug on his teleprompter halfway through his Berlin speech.
UH!
But on the issue of a Second Holocaust, the guy can't even come up with his usual empty words and pablum. I don't think he cares. I really don't. Six million dead Jews is a photo op for him, nothing more.
Obama won’t answer...he’s a coward. And we don’t need a coward in the White House - not again anyway.
We need to keep Germany under occupation until they can get on their feet. When they have an army able to defend themselves and an economy able to provide jobs them maybe we can leave. Now we need to protect Germany from its aggressive neighbors, like France and Poland. (Sic)
I am wondering if the REV Wright will come out against Obama sometime this Fall and call him out for what he is. ON the other hand, we haven’t heard a peep out of him for months. I suspect that he has been threatened to stay silent.
Stupid question. It means nothing except "Hey Obama, who's your Daddy?"
The job of the US president is to look after the interests of the US and US citizens, including American Jews.
“...empty words and pablum. ... .”
Why, when you use the word “pablum” do I think “pflegm?”
Let’s not bring the Dutch into this ...
And meanwhile American Jews are crawling all over each other, trying to be the first to vote for this guy. Remember this next time some goofball tells you Israel pulls all the strings in DC.
“Let’s not bring the Dutch into this ...”
LOL....sorry, I dont get it...LOL. :`)
Who would respond to that question?
An excerpt that’s telling from the article....
‘The two entered Beit HaNasi where Peres started describing an important book he read that contrasted the merits of socialism versus capitalism, which he recommended to the young senator whose books Peres found to be full of a moving humanity.’
For starters it’s not an ‘occupation’. I’m not sure if you meant that as sarcasm or not. The moment one of two situations happen you will see the U.S. presence in Germany disappear. The first situation being if the German government asked us to leave. The second situation being the moment that our troops being there stops being mutually beneficial to both our countries.
