BREAKING SCANDAL: Obama’s Pastor Called for Divestment from Israel
IsraPundit ^ | 9/3/08 | Bill Levinson

Posted on 09/03/2008 11:45:29 AM PDT by Winged Hussar

Wright also called Zionism “racist” in the Trinity United Church of Christ’s official publications.

Although the Trinity United Church of Christ’s Trumpet Magazine appears to be inaccessible, Barack Obama’s pastor failed to cover all of his tracks, and we have retrieved a .pdf file of Jeremiah Wright’s “This is Where I Came In.” (this_where_i_came_in) It is hosted at tucc.org (the Trinity United Church of Christ) and therefore cannot be a forgery or smear.

Rep. Wexler (D-FL) and the National Jewish Democratic Council would doubtlessly prefer that voters, and especially pro-Israel ones, not know about this but Jeremiah Wright’s “This is Where I Came In” advocates divestment from Israel, and it does so openly and unequivocally.

[Jeremiah Wright, verbatim] The Israelis have illegally occupied Palestinian territories for almost 40 years now. It took a divestment campaign to wake the business community up concerning the South Africa issue. Divestment has now hit the table again as a strategy to wake the business community up and to wake Americans up concerning the injustice and the racism under which the Palestinians have lived because of Zionism.

The Divestment issue will hit the floor during this month’s General Synod. Divesting dollars from businesses and banks that do business with Israel is the new strategy being proposed to wake the world up concerning the racism of Zionism. That Divestment issue won’t make the press either, however.

It is already a matter of record that Obama’s church questioned Israel’s legitimacy, and accused Israel of developing an “ethnic bomb” with which to kill Negroes and Arabs. Barack Obama’s lip service to Israel’s right to exist as a Western democracy must therefore be assessed in the context of his close association with Jeremiah Wright and his twenty year membership in the church that sanctioned these position statements.

Wexler (Lib-Dem FL), Jewsvote.org, and the National Jewish Democratic Council are trying to get Jewish Democrats to remain loyal to Obama. This ought to derail their efforts permanently.

It won't cost Obama any votes if it stays at Free Republic, though. Please download, copy, and circulate the screen shots and link to Jeremiah Wright's own words (still hosted at tucc.org) as widely as possible. There is a backup copy of "This is where I came in" at the linked site in case TUCC "disappears" the original.

I wonder if the New York Times will be able to find Chicago (buy a map, guys) — and send a reporter over there to cover this.. .or are all their team in Alaska going after children?

Is this really all that “breaking?” Why do you think Obama’s Jewish support is so weak. Barack Obama makes Jimmy Carter look like a Zionist.

They are more concerned with the Pallin Family’s internal private matters than about Obamassa’s public matters.....

It will be weaker still once this circulates, and Obama can’t win Florida (Wexler’s state) without it.

You should have a Winged Hussar pictorial in your about page, so many among us don’t know who saved us from islam in 1689.

Obama’s beloved “Uncle” and mentor — is showing his MUSLIM past....

Yes — The Rev. Wright was a self confessed believer in Islam before he decided to “work the Christian streets of Chicago”.. He did very well, financially... His flock is still trapped on the Leftist’s plantation though.

I admit to being one of those Bible believing, gun owning, America loving, “Change” hating whites who despises Obama and EVERYTHING he stands for.... due to the depravity of his “ideas and plans” and his obvious lack of character, loyalty to America and his Black Liberation Theology beliefs rather than the color of his skin.....

I’m in total compliance with MLK Jr’s dream.....

BREAKING SCANDAL: Obama’s Pastor Called for Divestment from Israel

News?
That's the stance of some mainline (shrinking) Protestant denominations.
And I suspect more liberal black churches feel the same way...
as folks like Obama's pastor usually trot out some line about
Jews being enablers of the slave trade.
(even if they were, these "holy men" don't usually name all the
slave trade conspiracy...especially the Africans that kidnapped
their own fellow Africans to sell as slaves.)

Does this have something to do with tinfoil hats?

In NJDC’s “Bubbie vs. the GOP,” Bubbie has to wear one to keep Sinclair Broadcasting from beaming mind control rays into her head.

Yep, sure does....:)

[Here’s a secret though...”tin foil” is made of aluminum and doesn’t work. Paranoid delusionals must go to a flea market or antiques shop and find an old tin colander or lunch pail...very effective and rather fashionable, too]

Is this really all that “breaking?”

Hard evidence of Wright's anti-Semitism, in downloadable, easily forwardable .pdf form is indeed breaking news, given how the MSM has scrambled to bury the Wright story.

Yeah and what's that "concern"? Does the MSM think it's more important that Sarah's 17 year old knows about sex than that's Obama doesn't have ONE PERSON he "helped" that come forward?

He was a community organizer on the South Side of Chicago. There's got to be one former displaced steel worker that he "helped". Where is that person?

If he was a Republican, reporters would be looking for one person - ANY person who would be willing to say something bad about him. But since he's a dem, the fact that they can't find anyone to say how wonderful he was is telling.

Who did he help?

Was he a part of the radical liberals of Hyde Park? What was his connection to terrorists in that neighborhood? Is that really less important than a 20 year old DUI that Sarah's husband had? The MSM covered that.

Obama's judgment is important. Who he hangs with matters. If Sarah was hanging out with people who had advocated bombing, IT WOULD BE NEWS. Why isn't it with Obama?

His "I was only 8" is bull. He served on a board with the guy and knows him. Why doesn't the MSM pretend Obama's a conservative and that Sarah's a liberal and see how they would cover them if it WAS different. Tell a reporter some stuff about Obama, but tell him it's really about Sarah. Then watch the reaction. The bias will become obvious - even to a liberal.

Not surprised. Robert Malley’s still with Obama even though Barry claimed he fired Malley.

The link is at IsraPundit. I also uploaded a copy there in case the one at tucc.org disappears.
