Washington Post Enlists Holocaust Against Israel

In an earlier incarnation, Scott Wilson worked for several years as the Washington Post's Jerusalem correspondent. So you would think that he learned something about the ancient historical, political, national, and cultural ties of Jews to the Holy Land.

But you would be wrong.

In the Post's May 28 edition, Wilson, currently the paper's White House correspondent, writes as follows in the lead paragraph of his article about the arrival of President Obama in Poland:

WARSAW--Within hours of arriving Friday in this once-occupied capital, President Obama encountered the enduring emotion surrounding the state of Israel, founded as a sanctuary from the virulent anti-Semitism that wiped out much of Poland's Jewish population during World War II. ("Obama visits monument to Warsaw Ghetto uprising" page A10).

In one stroke of the pen, Wilson thus wipes out 4,000 years of Jewish national and territorial attachments to this land. According to Wilson, Israel is merely a recent sanctuary for Jews persecuted elsewhere. This is the same distortion of history that Obama promulgated in his 2009 Cairo speech to the Muslim world when he erroneously connected Israel's existence to 'the aspiration for a Jewish homeland rooted in a tragic history that cannot be denied -- anti-Semitism in Europe culminated in an unprecedented Holocaust.

Libtard propagandists buy into the Islamist line of BS

Interesting... I presume Wilson mind cannot comprehend 4000 years of history, but what about the League of Nations’ decision in 1922 - Jewish National Home, which included modern-day Israel, Judea and Samaria (so-called West Bank) and the modern-day Jordan? It's 20 years before the Holocaust and less than 100 years ago...

Agreed. The Islamists keep saying “Abraham was an Arab”. Well, they’re correct-—Abraham came from the city of Ur, in what is known today as Iraq. HOWEVER, Abraham WAS NOT an Islamist, which they keep FORGETTING to mention!!!
