Radical Son Holds the Key to Naomi Klein’s Love of Hamas
David Horowitz's NewsReal Blog ^ | June 24, 2010 | Jeanette Pryor

The Amazon best-seller No Logo was penned, ironically, by anti-capitalist activist Naomi Klein. Asked during a Big Think interview why she became involved in politics, the Canadian journalist replied:

“There was a moment where I became involved in politics as a university student, and that was a very political school shooting. A man named Mark Lepine who had tried to get into this school but he hadn’t…decided it was because there was affirmative action for women, so he went into the engineering department and he separated the men from the women and said, ‘You’re all a bunch of f-ing feminists,’ and killed 14 women…this was an amazing political awakening for a lot of women because the politics were just so clear, and we felt really vulnerable as women in universities at that point.”

It is disconcerting to find Ms. Klein, who traces her debut in politics to the slaughter of women, sits on the Board of Advisors of Free Gaza, a pro-Hamas organization. Since the terrorist attempts to run the Israeli defense blockade, Klein has been vociferous in her condemnation of Israel – true to the self-hatred that prompted her previous declaration:

“Some Jews even think we get one get-away-with-genocide-free-card.”
Klein, an investigative journalist, cannot be ignorant of Hamas-encouraged Honor Killings, imposition of Islamic burqa tent-wear, death-threats to women in the media who broadcast without hijab, and even the outlawing of women riding motorcycles ( greatly restricting independent transportation in the territory.)

If recent reports are accurate, Naomi's advice dressing Al didn't yield results with some of the opposite sex.

No matter, Go Hamas! Something leftists can agree on.

Mark Steyn on the Lepine case:

Every December 6th, my own unmanned Dominion lowers its flags to half-mast and tries to saddle Canadian manhood in general with the blame for the “Montreal massacre,” the 14 female students of the Ecole Polytechnique murdered by Marc Lepine (born Gamil Gharbi, the son of an Algerian Muslim wife-beater, though you’d never know that from the press coverage). As I wrote up north a few years ago:"

"Yet the defining image of contemporary Canadian maleness is not M Lepine/Gharbi but the professors and the men in that classroom, who, ordered to leave by the lone gunman, meekly did so, and abandoned their female classmates to their fate — an act of abdication that would have been unthinkable in almost any other culture throughout human history. The “men” stood outside in the corridor and, even as they heard the first shots, they did nothing. And, when it was over and Gharbi walked out of the room and past them, they still did nothing. Whatever its other defects, Canadian manhood does not suffer from an excess of testosterone."

And somebody might want to point out to the airheads that the only reason the Canadian girls were "vulnerable" is that none of them were packing heat.

That was Naomi Wolf who 'dressed' Algore. Nonetheless, Algore's Naomi, as Liberal; probably would agree with Canada's Naomi.

Oops, you’re right, Wolf not Klein. I need to keep up on fashion, especially tan colors.

Like here; too much 'soy' in Canadian diet. It's killing 'manhood'. . .and probably why it is so hyped as super food. (A plot and a plan. . .)

More importantly, we have only to remember that Canada IS ahead of us on the 'Liberal' timeline. (Hope we do not have to wait as long as they did to 'turn the curve' if only a bit; by Conservative Prime Minister.) Still. . .we pale by comparison.<> Have to look at what we call 'competition' for our young and rising,'learning class'.

Look at 'egalitarian grade inflation. . .and our even expanding 'equal playing field'- for all things; once red-blooded American. Look at what we are calling war today - with real enemies - thanks to Libs. A 'war' to win hearts and minds (per our efforts in Afghanistan).

Won't be long; and our men; will be walked out the door; while women are left behind. Liberalism; Political Correctness, and a some more soy; will guarantee it.

Naomi Klein is so dumb she doesn’t know that Mark Lepine had a Muslim Algerian father who beat him and a Muslim name until he changed it. Mark Steyn wrote about this. http://www.google.com/search?num=100&hl=en&rlz=1B3GGLL_enUS358US358&q=steyn+lepine+algerian&aq=f&aqi=&aql=&oq=&gs_rfai= This was a Muslim mass murder of 14 women. That’s my take

Good post, but wrong Naomi. Naomi Wolfe put Al Gore in earth tones. She is American.
