Van Jones, Barack Obama's Green Jobs Czar, produced a record album entitled "WarTimes: Reports from the Opposition" a few years ago that was narrated by convicted cop killer Mumia Abu Jamal and featured a clip of an interview Jones did where he slammed the United States and Israel and proclaimed his stand with a "global struggle" against the United States.
Jones used his Ella Baker Center for Human Rights to found Freedom Fighter Music, the label WarTimes appeared on. WarTimes is also the name of an anti-war-on-al-Qaeda propaganda newspaper Jones helped organize.
The album was unearthed by the website Verum Serum, which posted a YouTube video with highlights of the album.
About three minutes forty-five seconds in to the highlight video, there is a brief interview with Van Jones at an anti-Israel demonstration where Jones criticizes Israel and calls for Palestinian 'right of return' then unloads on the United States:
"We see violence against poor people and poor people of color within the U.S. border, at the U.S. border, and beyond the U.S. border and you see U.S. tax dollars funding all of it. And so we have this now global struggle against the U.S. led security apparatus and military agenda that impacts people here and impacts people around the world and I think that we need to see our problems as linked."
Mumia closes out the album by describing it as a "small tease of the truth about U.S. imperialism's war on the world."
The time frame of the album is hard to gauge, but Verum Serum writes that Freedom Fighter Music existed from around 2002-2003 to 2005-2006 and produced maybe two or three albums. The album appears to be from late 2002 or early 2003.
Jones mentioned the label in an interview with USA Today's USA Weekend magazine published February 9, 2003 that Verum Serum found:
[I understand you have] developed a record label, Freedom Fighter Music.
Jones: Yes, we've had one for a little more than a year. Our second CD is coming out this year.
Verum Serum gave a link to an MP3 file of the entire album at Indymedia.
Maybe 0bama can have Van Jones preside over his 9/11 “National Day of Service” parade.
What is the punishment for traitors nowadays? Whatever it
is, he needs to have it happen!
Speak of the Huffington Post:
9/11 Truther Van Jones Was Arianna Huffington’s Political Director
Jones was Huffington’s grassroots political director when she ran for governor in the 2003 recall election

who saw this coming?
No one.
“The liberal crowd helping the red crowd.”
The liberal crown IS the red crowd.
And VERY proud of it.
Here is what is going on at Wikipedia, for anyone interested: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Van_Jones
Medicare and Food Stamp fraud.
That's why Obama wants total control of health care.
Laugh if you want, but I predict soon there will be a very real effort (starting at the grassroots level) to impeach obama. I further predict that after months and months of proof of his hatred and incompetence, there WILL be congressmen who are no longer afraid and will call for his impeachment...
Thanks for the ping 444 Flyer.
That’s great!!! ROTF!!!
0bama wants a WAR with America.
Then he can have carte blanch to “burn that village in order to save it”.
Jones is but a Lt. in that War.
Obviously from rich America hating obots, e.g. Soros, Hollywood types; and of course your tax dollars.
Ship this SOB to Cuba
It’s not an “administration” it’s a REGIME!
I am worried that if Obama throws Jones under the bus he will meet up with Wright and the others who have been tossed there. I fear these people are mating under there. It is like a bunch of roaches there now. They just keep crawling out; only to be tossed back under once exposed to the daylight!
Post #183 - Spot on!
But this is only part of their penetration into all minority groups, gay groups, women’s groups, etc.
The hard-left targets the ‘opressed’ groups, stirs the pot, and uses them as tools. And they are just tools. I mean, we all know how kind communists were to gays and minorities.
Isn’t it ironic that blacks would support the hard-left, the greatest slave-owner in human history—the Equal Opportunity Enslavers. Everyone is equal as slaves under communism.
Life is hard no matter where you are—we’re all going to pay a price for existing. The hard-left uses this universal truth to their benefit, as have all power mongers in history. They sell the lie that government (which is nothing but a group of people) can somehow remove this pain from the masses—it cannot be removed. We are built to be discontented—our growth depends on our discomfort and longing for something more, something better, etc.
To be free, it is perceived by too many, is to be vulnerable and alone against life’s hardships (This is especially true for women as they are hard-wired to protect the ‘nest’—examine the votes of single women if you need proof.). But only a free person has the opportunity to stare down the hardships him/her self and create a solution. It is certainly preferred to waiting for someone else to fight your battles for you.
If you are not free you are denied the pain/discomfort that would spur you to grow, spur you to knowledge, spur you to wealth, etc. You are also denied the option to wander out on your own and thus pave the way for the rest of us (AKA, individual success, greatness, creativity, etc. These can only be reached by one human at a time. All invention happens in one mind at a time—there is no collective mind, or collective creativity.).
A free man/woman does not a-void the abstract (the void) but embraces it. It is from there, and only there, that we find all that we require. Our ancestors did not shy from this. But with a prosperous ‘society’ and ignorant, power-thirsty ‘leaders’ comes the choice to not act alone, as a free human.
Just as you wouldn’t want to spoil your child, and there’s good reason to call it ‘spoil’, you don’t want to offer the masses a way to vote away the prosperity of other humans—it is mass ‘spoiling’, and in the end, mass suicide. For these humans are not survivors, but doomed parasites.
America left you alone, in freedom. This is the ONLY reason we have done as well as we have—that is it, folks. The rest is romance.
Our confidence, our righteousness, as Americans comes from our integrity, which is the distillation of our fortitude and creativity in the face of the ongoing ‘pain’ of being free—American grit, or American exceptionalism—which is nothing more than the glorious human survival instinct.
Do you want the pain of freedom, or the pain of the parasite? There is no other choice for us as humans.
Wonderful post! Spoken like a true John Galt! Thank you for expressing the truth so well.
Thanks for the link. It’s been a while since I’ve been to the site and it never ceases to amaze me at the array of forces set against America and its patriots. When the balloon goes up, the list may come in handy.
