MoveOn.org also published a derogatory photomanipulation of the Pope It is a matter of record that Barack Obama solicited (http://www.stentorian.com/cartoons/2008/obama_pope1.jpg) and accepted (http://moveon.org/press/pr/obamaendorsementrelease.html) the support of MoveOn.org, whose now-disgraced Action Forum served as a platform for the most vicious imaginable anti-Semitic hate speech. This included an actual blood libel of Jews, a statement that Jews control all the media, and even a suggestion that Jews did “something” to deserve the Holocaust....MoveOn.org itself published a derogatory photomanipulation of Pope Benedict. 9/11 denial and 9/11 conspiracy theories, anti-Evangelical hate speech, contempt for Vietnam veterans similar to that expressed by MoveOn.org’s defamation of...

We encourage our readers to circulate this Web page as widely as possible, and especially to Jewish voters who usually vote Democratic. This official Democratic National Committee ad makes a point of stating that Eric Cantor is a Jew, and does so in derogatory contexts. This is consistent with the anti-Semitic hate speech that pervaded Barack Obama’s official campaign site (My.Barackobama.com, over which the campaign exercises editorial control) and also MoveOn.org’s now disgraced Action Forum. Here are the relevant excerpts from the Democratic National Committee’s Web page, and we have taken a screen shot. http://www.democrats.org/page/content/VPCantor ...The Democratic National Committee seems...

Dozens of Israelis who have passed through the Arava border crossing during the last few days were given a choice, either turn over all items that carry Jewish symbols or be denied entry into Jordan. The reason? According to the Jordanians it is nothing more than a security precaution. "The Jewish symbols will make it easier on terrorist elements to identify Israelis" a Jordanian official explained. For the past year the Jordanians have been meticulous when checking Israelis, especially orthodox Jews, who wish to enter Jordan. Last week authorities reiterated their advisory that "Jewish paraphernalia" that could risk the lives...

From Barack Obama’s Web site at my.barackobama.com Do you realize what utterly horrific price we pay that our Congress has been bought by AIPAC and the right wing Israeli nazi party (yeah - that’s you Bibi) and the war crimes we have in the works for Iran? What do you think about that, Sen Obama? How about you, Barack? How about Sen Dodd? ... These Judeofacists and their Neocon comrades have already destroyed America - we will need a new constitution to redress the crimes these Neocons (Israeli-firsters) have brought upon us.

Hosted at the official Barack Obama campaign web site, this blog post has been public since March 1, 2008: IKEY G-KHAN GALACTICCA’s Support Senator Barack Obama For US President Blog: Jews Cannot Afford Not To Support Obama. However, if Jews betray Obama and he loses, Africans worldwide would consider it a betrayal to the whole African people and will never forgive world Jewry. In retaliation, (eye for eye, remember!) Africa would consider expelling all Jews from Africa who have been mining African Gold and Diamond and enriching themselves for many centuries. It was African gold and diamond that built international...

Wicher repeatedly refers to Israel as an apartheid state, and in fact claims that Israel’s treatment of Palestinian Authority Arabs is “worse than apartheid.” ...He dismisses any who call his claims of Israeli “apartheid” anti-Semitic as members of the “Zionist thought police.”

Tony Wicher’s “My Favorite Antisemite” at the Official Website of Barack Obama 2008 Presidential Campaign attacks the Zionist Thought Police and then quotes Desmond Tutu, who suggests that the “powerful Jewish Lobby” will fall like Hitler, Mussolini, Idi Amin, and other dictators.

(2) Tony Wicher’s material cannot be written off as a hit and run smear job by a Republican or Clinton operative. His point score, a measurement of his activity at...

Apparently, Obama went out of his way to endorse a pan-Islamist, anti-Semitic, anti-Israel bigot and one of the most radical Members of Congress--Congressman Chaka Fattah (that his last name is the same as one of the manifestations of the PLO isn't exactly a coincidence)-- in the Democratic Primary for Mayor of Philadelphia, last year. Fattah, for example, was one of 62 Democrats voting against a House resolution in favor of Israel's right to defend itself against Palestinian terrorism and also build a border fence to keep terrorists out.

Also compares Muslim terrorists to religious 'radicals' in Oregon JERUSALEM – Sen. Barack Obama's military adviser and national campaign co-chairman has implied U.S. politicians are afraid of Jewish voters in Miami and New York City and that American Jews are the "problem" impeding a solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Merrill A. McPeak, a former Air Force chief of staff, also compared the Hamas and Hezbollah terrorist organizations to what he described as religious radicals in Oregon and claimed "born-again [Christians]" supported the war in Iraq to help Israel.

He's a Muslim. He was sworn into office on the Koran. He doesn't say the Pledge of Allegiance. His pastor is an anti-Semite. He's a tool of Louis Farrakhan. He's anti-Israel. His advisers are anti-Israel. He's friends with terrorists. The terrorists want him to win. He's the Antichrist. By now you've probably seen at least some of these e-mails and articles about Barack Obama bouncing around the Internet. They distort Obama's religious faith, question his support for Israel, warp the identity and positions of his campaign advisers and defame his friends and allies from Chicago.

(IsraelNN.com) New York led the list of anti-Jewish attacks, with 351 incidents, a 23% increase compared to last year, according to The Anti-Defamation League's annual audit report released Wednesday. The audit tracks anti-Semitic incidents in 40 states and the District of Columbia.

(IsraelNN.com) The French Jewish community and local government officials are outraged after it was disclosed that anti-Semitic thugs locked up, brutally attacked and tormented a Jewish youth in the same Paris suburb where Ilan Hamili was tortured to death two years ago. The gang members are aged 17-25 and have been charged with locking up a 19-year-old boy, beating and sexually tormenting him. The gang had falsely accused the youth of stealing from them and lured him into an apartment of one of the attackers. They scrawled "dirty Jew" on the face of the victim, who was subjected to a...

“Anti-Semites for Obama” by the Tennessee Republican Party barely recognizes the tip of the ugly iceberg. Obama’s association with and refusal to repudiate anti-Semites, racists, and Catholic-haters is indeed a problem, but his open promotion of anti-Semitic, anti-Catholic, and racist individuals and organizations is far worse. ...The National “Jewish” Democratic Council, with its long and extensive record of whitewashing and sanitizing anti-Semitism and other forms of hate while promoting hatred of Christians for political gamesmanship, is an insult not only to Jews but to all decent people of all political persuasions. We can see no other motive behind Ira Forman’s...

NASHVILLE, TN - The Tennessee Republican Party today joins a growing chorus of Americans concerned about the future of the nation of Israel, the only stable democracy in the Middle East, if Sen. Barack Obama is elected president of the United States. “It’s time to set the record straight about Barack Obama and where he really stands on vital issues such as national security and the security of Israel,” said Robin Smith, chairman of the Tennessee Republican Party. “Voters need to know about two items that surfaced today which strongly suggest that an Obama presidency will view Israel as a...

According to a report in the Memphis Commercial Appeal, [Nikki] Tinker “declined to answer” questions about the flier, which was condemned by the Anti-Defamation League. The flier reportedly states that “Memphis Congressman Steve Cohen and the JEWS HATE Jesus.

Chabad-Lubavitch Rabbi Avraham Wolff, chief rabbi of Odessa, Ukraine, and director of the local Jewish community, called on Ukraine President Victor Yuschenko to do more to stem the tide of anti-Semitism in the wake of an appearance by a previously unknown hate group. According to the Jewish Telegraphic Agency, the "Orthodox Public Organization of Odessa" distributed pamphlets in local Russian Orthodox churches that called for pogroms and the murder of Jews. Community spokesman Berl Kapulkin said that preliminary information pointed to the pro-Russian groups of United Fatherland and the Union of Orthodox Citizens of Ukraine as responsible for the pamphlets'...

Police in Israel have uncovered a neo-Nazi ring which was responsible for vandalising synagogues and carrying out attacks on Jews and foreign workers in Israel, a court was told yesterday. The group of eight Russian immigrants aged between 18 and 21 appeared in court following an 18-month investigation into attacks on two synagogues in which swastikas were painted on the walls of the buildings. The men covered their heads with their shirts during the hearing, revealing arms tattooed with Nazi imagery. More than a million people from the former Soviet Union have emigrated to Israel, which has a population of...

Ron Paul Odds Slashed From 15 to 1 to 8 to 1 Following this weekend's Republican debate in Iowa and some extensive mainstream coverage and sound bytes., 2008 US Presidential candidate Ron Paul's odds to become the next Commander-in-Chief have been slashed further from 15 to 1 to 8 to 1.

It is inconceivable that any candidate could expect to be elected President after making statements like these or similar ones, but Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, and John Edwards have done exactly that. They have openly endorsed a prominent racist and anti-Semite whose hate speech played at least an indirect role in inciting two violent incidents in which people were killed: the Crown Heights riots and the arson of a Jewish-owned store in Harlem. The source is not some Republican blog, but the racist and anti-Semitic hate organization itself. It is vital that readers circulate this information as widely as possible...

Barack Obama is heading to Greenwich this weekend to raise money from well-known hedge-funders (i.e. Paul Tudor Jones), but a minimum $1,000-a-head reception at the home of retired Knick Allan Houston on Saturday is drawing heavy criticism from some Jewish anti-discrimination groups. "It's very unfortunate," says David Twersky, communications director at the American Jewish Congress. "It looks like Obama is doing pretty well. He doesn't need Allan Houston's money." Back in 2001, Houston and fellow Knick guard and so-called "God squad" mate Charlie Ward were jeered by fans after making statements Jewish groups deemed anti-Semitic. Though Ward was the most...

BURLINGTON, Vt. City's cable company offers Al-Jazeera A cable company is offering the Al-Jazeera network in its cable package, one of only a few in the nation to do so. Burlington Telecom, a city-owned cable company that serves 1,200 households in Vermont's largest city, began offering the Arab-operated network about six months ago. "We were certainly squeamish about it at first, given its reputation in the United States," said Tim Nulty, director of Burlington Telecom. "But if you look at it, it looks like BBC. I think it's more mainstream and more objective than CNN." (AP)

The Organization of the Islamic Conference (OIC) has successfully lobbied for the United Nations to include language against blasphemy in the tenets of a new human rights body. At the end of March 2007, the United Nations’ Human Rights Council issued a resolution against the “defamation” of religion and requested member states to ban literature and other materials containing “racist or xenophobic ideas” that could encourage hostility toward religious groups. It urges nations "to take resolute action to prohibit the dissemination of racist and xenophobic ideas and materials aimed at any religion or its followers that constitute incitement and religious...

Decision comes as Iran declares industrial-scale uranium enrichment capabilities It’s not a joke. On April 9, the United Nations Disarmament Commission reelected Iran to the senior office of a vice chairman. The commission also elected Syria as its recording secretary. The very day the Disarmament Commission—yes, as the name implies, this organization is in fact responsible for reducing the development of dangerous weapons by dangerous nations—cast its vote to reelect Iran to one of the three vice chair positions, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad declared that Iran could now produce nuclear fuel on an industrial scale. No joke. He did so...

Anti-Semitic hate crimes are on the rise, according to a new study released Sunday by the Stephen Roth Institute for the Study of Anti-Semitism and Racism. The study, released in conjunction with the World Jewish Congress and timed to coincide with Holocaust Memorial Day, noted that last year saw the highest number of anti-Semitic incidents worldwide – 590 reported in 2006 -- since 2000. Countries where the highest number of incidents was recorded included Great Britain, Australia, France and Canada. Institute director Professor Dina Porat said that Holocaust denial activities by Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and the Second Lebanon War...

National Jewish Democratic Council Denounces War Hero McCain (While Supporting a Confessed War Criminal) From the same hate organization that brought us Bubbie, the stereotyped Jewish grandmother for whom Bush’s Jewish cabinet members dance the hora, along with derogatory pictures of Christian ministers plus actual anti-Semitic propaganda, comes yet another creative inversion and perversion of truth, decency, and honor. To the National Jewish Democratic Council, war heroes who endure torture and abuse as the price of refusing to speak against their country become villains while confessed war criminals become heroes. It is all in the very unique world of Ira...

Rome, 3 April (AKI) - Prosecutors in the northern Italian city of Turin were scheduled to start investigating on Tuesday footage of an imam at the local Cottolengo mosque, Mohammed Kohalia, calling on Muslims to hate Christians and Jews and praying for their death. "The Prophet has said that the extremists [Jews and Christians] will be destroyed," the cleric is heard as saying in footage secretly filmed by a journalist. "Allah should kill the polytheists." Kohalia has denied making those statements. The DVD portraying Kohaila's sermon was filmed with a hidden camera by a faithful attending the prayers on behalf...

BERLIN (EJP)--- A tragedy was avoided on Sunday after a smoke bomb, thrown through a window of a Jewish kindergarten in Berlin, failed to ignite. However, the school, located in a northwest neighbourhood of the German capital, was not spared by the spray painting of swastikas, other Nazi symbols and anti-Semitic phrases, such as “Auschwitz,” “Juden Raus” (Jews, get out) and “Sieg Heil”, on its outer walls, as well as on toys that had been lying around in the school’s playground. A police spokesman said the attack did not cause serious damage or endanger children or staff at the school....

PARIS (Reuters) - The number of anti-Semitic incidents in France jumped sharply in 2006, lifted by attacks following the brutal murder of a young Jew at the start of the year and by the war in Lebanon, a Jewish group said on Monday. CRIF, the representative council of Jewish institutions in France, said physical attacks on Jews rose 46 percent to 112 last year from 77 in 2005. Anti-Semitic "actions", including both assaults and lesser attacks such as throwing objects or causing material damage, rose 40 percent to 213 from 152, while the number of threats rose by 7 percent...

Anti-Semitic comic book in Korea stirs anger in the U.S. By Choe Sang-hun Published: February 25, 2007 SEOUL: A best-selling comic book series in South Korea designed to teach children about foreign countries contains anti-Semitic images, causing an uproar in Korean-American communities in the United States, but barely raising a peep here. The series, authored by Lee Won Bok, a visual arts professor at Duksung Women's University in Seoul, has sold more than 12 million copies since it began publishing in the 1980s. The images "echo classic Nazi canards" by "recycling various Jewish conspiracies," Rabbi Abraham Cooper, associate dean of...

Jewish comedienne Joan Rivers has launched a scathing attack on Mel Gibson, insisting the actor should "die" for the anti-Semitic comments he made to police officers who arrested him for drink driving in July. The outspoken comic urges people to boycott Gibson's TV interviews with newswoman Diane Sawyer on Good Morning America, because the exposure will only help to heal the actor/director's tarnished public image. She tells Celebrity Week: "He is an anti-Semitic son of a bitch. He should f**king die. "I think everyone should not watch the interview with Diane Sawyer. The hypocrisy is what I hate. You know...

Israel is now history. We no longer recognize the State of Israel. There is no way back. The State of Israel has raped the world's recognition and will not achieve peace until it lays down its arms. The State of Israel, in its present form is history, writes Jostein Gaarder. There's no turning back. It's time to learn a new lesson: We no longer recognize the State of Israel. We could not recognize the apartheid regime of South Africa, nor did we recognize the Afghani Taliban regime. Then there were many who did not recognize Saddam Hussein's Iraq or the...

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Superstar Mel Gibson goes on a drunken anti-Semitic tirade and Hollywood's powerful Jewish community finds itself under attack for not speaking up strongly enough in protest. In the days since Gibson's arrest on suspicion of drunk driving after a wild ride down a Malibu highway, few of the leading Jewish figures in the film industry have publicly commented on Gibson's barrage of anti-Semitic comments. The actor was formally charged with drunk driving on Wednesday, six days after his arrest and subsequent rant to a police officer about Jews causing all the wars. On Tuesday, Gibson issued...

ACTOR Mel Gibson today apologised for making anti-Semitic remarks after his recent arrest for drunken driving and asked to meet with members of the Jewish community to begin a "path for healing". "There is no excuse, nor should there be any tolerance, for anyone who thinks or expresses any kind of anti-Semitic remark," Gibson said in a statement. "I want to apologise specifically to everyone in the Jewish community for the vitriolic and harmful words that I said to a law enforcement officer the night I was arrested," he said. Gibson, who directed 2004's blockbuster movie The Passion of The...

MEL Gibson was speeding, drunk and absolutely certain of how this episode would end when he was pulled over and arrested by a police officer in Malibu. Gibson, 50, told Los Angeles County sheriff's deputy James Mee he "owned" Malibu as he was driven, handcuffed, to the Los Hills sheriff's station early on Friday morning, and he would "get even" with him. "I'm going to f--- you," Gibson reportedly said. "You're going to regret you ever did this to me." What followed will cast a shadow over the remainder of the American-born, Australian-raised Gibson's career as one of Hollywood's most...

Whenever Israel uses military force, there is always a cadre of self-hating Jews who feel it is their duty to undermine the Israeli government. They begin arguments by claiming moral superiority through their Judaism. In criticizing Israel's defensive action in Lebanon last week, Fox News co-host Alan Colmes stated, "I'm Jewish. I don't think appeasement means peace, though. Or peace means appeasement. Peace would be the desire." British MP Gerald Kaufman asked in the July 23 edition of the Daily Mail, "As a Jew, I am grieved to ask the question, but I must: Will Israel never learn?" Then there's...
