NJDC guest Alcee Hastings denounces all gun owners and hunters as racists and anti-Semites Democratic Congressman Warns Jews, Blacks to Beware of Palin by Stephen Clark Florida Rep. Alcee Hastings on Wednesday warned two minority groups to beware of Sarah Palin because "anybody toting guns and stripping moose don't care too much about what they do with Jews and blacks." Hastings, who is black and a Democrat, made the comment in Florida at a panel discussion hosted by the National Jewish Democratic Council. The group recently criticized Palin's invitation to an anti-Iran rally held during Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmedinajad's visit...

Newark, Blast Ring 4: Radioactive mutants from the National Jewish Democratic Council today tapped an angry Morse code press release message on the lid of the fallout shelter of another Jewish organization, demanding that it "immediately disinvite" controversial Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin from its fortified underground bunker... Continued

Here is why the invitation for Sarah Palin to attend an anti-Amadinejad/Iran rally, to have been held today, and sponsored by the Conference of Presidents of Major Jewish Organization, was withdrawn. The National Jewish Democratic Council (NJDC), a rancorous, leftist and "partisan" bunch of Jewish Dems, felt that since Hillary Clinton was no longer speaking - that is, no longer speaking ALONE - the event was now a partisan event, and should not go forward. (Mind you, if Hill spoke alone, it would NOT have been partisan.) - - - - - - - - - - WASHINGTON, DC –...

We thought it was impossible for the National "Jewish" Democratic Council to sink any lower in terms of depravity and pure opportunism. Its effort to disrupt the Conference of Presidents of Major Jewish Organizations' Rally to Stop Iran to embarrass Vice Presidential Candidate Sarah Palin hardly surprises us, though. In addition, the National "Jewish" Democratic Council misrepresents Hillary Clinton's reasons for not attending the rally with Palin. We sent an E-mail to the Conference of Presidents of Major Jewish Organizations and we called the organization as well, to make sure it knows the real nature of the organization with which...

NJDC also whitewashed and enabled anti-Semitic hate speech"Biden will headline NJDC event" by Eric Fingerhut reports that Senator Joseph Biden will be the keynote speaker at this month's National Jewish Democratic Council's conference in Washington. We must point out emphatically that the only thing "Jewish" about this organization is its name, which it uses to whitewash and sanitize anti-Semitism from its political allies like MoveOn.org. The "Christian Identity Movement" similarly calls itself Christian, but no one except its members believe this. Hate and bigotry go hand in hand with the Democratic Party's left wing (the MoveOn.org wing, which claims to...

Maybe NJDC’s real problem with Sarah Palin is that she believes that Jesus is her Savior, even though Barack Obama shares this belief–but left-wing Democrats get a pass from NJDC. To: watchdog and info “at” barackobama.com cc: IsraPundit, Grizzly Groundswell, The Husaria: For Our Freedom and Yours, and Free Republic Subject: National “Jewish” Democratic Council’s promotion of anti-Christian hateThere is no place in modern politics for any organization that uses racial, ethnic, religious, or misogynist hate to advance its agenda. We therefore call upon the Obama campaign to reject the support of the National Jewish Democratic Council, whose “Bubbie versus...

Ira N. Forman, Executive Director of the National Jewish Democratic Council (NJDC) today released the following statement: Today, Senator John McCain made his first critical presidential decision with his selection of his Vice Presidential running mate. McCain’s judgment appears lacking. In Governor Sarah Palin McCain chooses a running mate with zero foreign policy experience and a brewing scandal which is being investigated by the Alaska state legislature. The contrast with Senator Joe Biden could not be starker and more unfavorable for the soon to be Republican nominee. For a party which claims it is trying to reach out to the...

Group also whitewashed MoveOn.org hate speech, published anti-Christian hate video The National Jewish Democratic Council is grasping at straws in its latest effort to smear John McCain. “McCain Picking on Jewish Supreme Court Justices?” (http://njdc.typepad.com/njdcs_blog/2008/08/mccain-picking.html) says, When Pastor Rick Warren asked Senator John McCain to name his least favorite current U.S. Supreme Court justices it seemed that he was picking on the Jewish members of our highest court. A review of the Kelo vs. New London decision, in which the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that municipalities can collude with private developers to use eminent domain to steal property for private...

We heard that the National Jewish Democratic Council and Father Michael Pfleger have come up with the long-sought resolution to the Judeo-Christian controversy over the identity of the Messiah. Christians, of course, believe that Jesus was the Messiah (who will return one day), while Jews believe he is yet to come. There is a rumor that the National Jewish Democratic Council and Father Michael Pfleger have arrived at the perfect compromise solution, and common prayer.

No complaints from “Jewish” Democrats while Obama promotes and enables anti-Semites, racists, and Catholic-hating bigots Linda Berg of the National Jewish Democratic Council (double oxymoron, there is very little Jewish or Democratic about it) wrote the following in “It took a lot for McCain to Finally Reject Hagee’s Endorsement.” It took a You Tube vido of Rev. John Hagee proclaiming that Hitler and the Holocaust had been part of G*d’s plan to get the Jews out of Europe and into Israel for McCain yesterday to finally reject his endorsement. We understand where Hagee is coming from, not that we like...

Urban legends help Obama while hurting McCain and therefore our country We recently showed [http://www.israpundit.com/2008/?p=1118] how the National Jewish Democratic Council cut out part of a statement by John McCain to suggest that he, like Obama, is open to unconditional discussions with terrorists and rogue governments. Half-truths, out of context statements, and blatant falsehoods are the National Jewish Democratic Council’s stock in trade, and we have exposed NJDC for this on many occasions. NJDC is therefore a Republican asset that will do Barack Obama far more harm than good in November. We must caution those who are on our side...

NJDC’s Long Litany of Misinformation, Anti-Semitic Propaganda, and Anti-Christian Hate Propaganda The National Jewish Democratic Council (double oxymoron, there is nothing Jewish or mainstream Democratic about it) allowed itself to make the following noises in its blog today (http://njdc.typepad.com/njdcs_blog/2008/05/new-blog-republ.html). Every year, the Republic Jewish Coalition (RJC) shows time and time again that it puts partisan interests above Jewish concerns and that they relentlessly attack anyone with whom they disagree, sometimes using only half-truths and drastically misleading statements. As Jews, we have long since known the dangers of misinformation. Indeed, as the targets of the blood libel and the Protocols of...

Tony Zirkle, a candidate in the Republican primary for Indiana’s 2nd Congressional District seat gave a speech to a rather unique audience, the Nationalist Socialist Worker’s Party, or the Nazi Party. ...This kind of attitude of racism and anti-Semitism is simply un-American. To his credit, it was a fellow Republican opponent for the primary, Luke Puckett, who brought this meeting to the attention of the media, and stated, “I can't believe, in 2008, someone could have such backward opinions." The point of mentioning this isn’t to paint the Republican Party as pro-Nazi, racist, or anti-Semitic; quite the contrary. owever, when...

NJDC denounces McCain’s ties to Hagee but has nothing to say about Obama and Michael Moore [http://www.israpundit.com/2008/?p=814] “How Does McCain Really Feel About Hagee?” by the National Jewish Democratic Council’s David Kim [http://njdc.typepad.com/njdcs_blog/2008/04/mccain-unsure-a.html] attacks John McCain for accepting the endorsement of Pastor John Hagee. Before we address NJDC’s concerns about Pastor Hagee, we remind our readers that the National Jewish Democratic Council has been totally unresponsive to our well documented requests [http://www.israpundit.com/2008/?p=685] for it to denounce: (1) Barack Obama’s pastor and church, which have published blood libels of the United States and Israel while calling upon God to damn America...

The Zionist Organization of America has “called upon Democratic presidential candidate Senator Barack Obama (D-IL) to quit his racist, anti-American, anti-Israel church and repudiate his pastor, Jeremiah Wright.” Noting that the National Jewish Democratic Council condemned Mitt Romney for appearing at the museum of a long-dead EX-antisemite, we are confident that NJDC will support ZOA’s request. Henry Ford retracted and repudiated The International Jew, but Jeremiah Wright has never retracted, repudiated, or apologized for his own hate speech, his publication of a manifesto from a genuine Hamas terrorist, or his placement of quote marks around “state” of Israel, as if...

“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...

National Jewish Democratic Council whitewashes hate speech and anti-Semites for political gain A kapo was a concentration camp trustee while Judenrats, as described by Wikipedia, “were generally composed of leaders of the Jewish community… They were forced by the Nazis to provide Jews for use as slave labor, and to assist in the deportation of Jews to extermination camps during the Holocaust. Those who refused to follow Nazi orders or were unable to cooperate fully were frequently rounded up and shot or deported to the extermination camps themselves.” Kapos and Judenrats therefore had the excuse that they had guns to...

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. So Memphis Christians must united and support ONE Black Christian to represent Memphis in the United States Congress in 2008.” [Memphis Commercial Appeal, 2/13/08 and 2/11/08]

No Place For Slander In Jewish Discourse by Ira N. Forman of the National Jewish Democratic Council warns against sinat chinam, or baseless hatred. History abounds with examples, such as anti-Semites attempting to blame problems like bad harvests and plagues on Jews, Nero blaming Christians for the fire that destroyed Rome, Inquisitors and witch-hunters inventing heretics and witches to justify their existences along with the worst atrocities in history, and so on. Orwell’s 1984 includes a fictional example of a subversive named Goldstein, who may or may not even exist. Sinat chinam, or baseless hatred, also has an opposite: the...

What you are thunders so loudly that I cannot hear what you say to the contrary. — Ralph Waldo Emerson Much has been made by the National Jewish Democratic Council about Barack Hussein Obama's purported support for Israel. Obama's actions, however, thunder so loudly that we cannot hear his lip service to Israel's basic security and right to exist. After soliciting the support of the prominent racist and anti-Semite Al Sharpton, Barack Obama just accepted the endorsement of MoveOn.org. Let's see what this official MoveOn.org bulletin has to say about Israel and the Palestinians. MoveOn Bulletin Friday, June 20, 2003...

A good strategist pays attention to what his enemy does not do, as well as what he does. NJDC’S "Guide to Responding to Obama, Clinton, and Edwards Smears aimed at Jewish Voters" actually makes some valid points, but one is conspicuous in its absence: the prominent racist and anti-Semite Al Sharpton. We know quite well from prior experience that the National Jewish Democratic Council would lie on Obama’s behalf, or whitewash and downplay his failings, if it were conceivably possible to do so. The fact that NJDC does not address Obama’s blatant promotion of Al Sharpton and his National Action...

The National Jewish Democratic Council is again trying to downplay, deny, and whitewash the vicious anti-Semitic hate speech that is coming from the Democratic Left. We are surprised that the NJDC would again bring itself to our attention in this manner, noting its own publication of anti-Semitic and anti-Christian hate propaganda. Nonetheless, we are always delighted to accommodate them, and we will take this opportunity to remind them that we asked them for their position on Al Sharpton, MoveOn.org, and Jeremiah Wright.

After the Nevada Democratic Party cancelled a Presidential debate on Fox News, the major Democratic candidates (Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, John Edwards, Joseph Biden, Chris Dodd, Bill Richardson) have all agreed to speak at the conference of an anti-Christian and anti-Semitic hate organization: the National Jewish Democratic Council. We have previously shown (http://www.israpundit.com/2006/?p=4275) that this is a double oxymoron, as there is nothing either Jewish or Democratic about this organization. The National “Jewish” Democratic Council is Anti-Semitic ...In contrast to Jews who cooperated with Nazis because they had guns (often literally) to their heads, NJDC leader Ira Forman was under...

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...

Flexing their political muscle, members of MoveOn.Org plan to hold a virtual town hall meeting April 10 to question some of the presidential candidates about the war in Iraq. ...“This event will give real people a chance to ask presidential candidates tough questions about Iraq, the most important issue of our time,” said Eli Pariser, MoveOn.org Political Action’s Executive Director. ...So far, Senators Hillary Clinton (D-N.Y.) and Barack Obama (D-Ill.), as well as former Senator John Edwards (D-N.C.), have each agreed to be available for the question and answer session. But 10 percent of MoveOn members must first say they...

The National Jewish Democratic Council, proud defender of the hate organization MoveOn.org and slinger of anti-Semitic “Jew as Christian hater” propaganda, is now falsely accusing John McCain–a strong advocate of American national defense–of using a racial slur. Not content with publishing anti-Semitic propaganda to damage Jewish-Evangelical relations, NJDC is now knowingly and willfully slandering a war hero and one of the few political figures who is known for his honesty and integrity. "Cedar Falls, Ia. - Republican presidential candidate John McCain used the term “tar baby,” which is sometimes associated with racist connotations, during a campaign stop in northern Iowa...

The National Jewish Democratic Council, which attempted to whitewash MoveOn.org’s vicious hate speech last year (http://www.israpundit.com/2006/?p=3149) while posting anti-Semitic “Jews as Christian haters” propaganda on its own blog (http://www.israpundit.com/2006/?p=3172), has suddenly decided that hate speech is bad–when it comes from sources like Ann Coulter and Michael Savage. We note, incidentally, that Michael Savage is among the country’s most vocal opponents of militant Islam, and his show has more than eight million listeners. “Savage Hate Speech” at the National Judenrat Democratic Council’s blog says, “to those who have heard Savage’s radio show, it is obvious that his hate filled-rage knows no...

On Tuesday, former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney returned to Michigan, his native state, to announce that he is running for president. He delivered this earth-shattering news at the Henry Ford Museum in Dearborn, posed between a model of the old Nash Rambler and the new Ford hybrid. The picture was meant to convey a message of "innovation and transformation," the motto of the Romney campaign. The venue had a local message, too. Romney's father, George, a former Michigan governor, was the automotive executive who (temporarily) saved American Motors with the compact Rambler in the late 1950s. Today, with Detroit hemorrhaging...

The National Jewish Democratic Council has reached a new level of desperation in its attack on Mitt Romney for making a speech at the Henry Ford Museum in Dearborn Michigan. NJDC argues that, because Henry Ford once published anti-Semitic material (which he later retracted and repudiated, which is more than NJDC’s friends at MoveOn.org ever did), Republicans “fail to understand the Jewish community.” This is quite a mouthful from an organization that was so eager to attack Evangelical Christians that it relabeled and repackaged genuine Nazi “Jews as Christian haters” propaganda in its own blog, of which we will now...

We previously reported (http://www.israpundit.com/2006/?p=3149) how the National Jewish Democratic Council made itself a knowing and willful accomplice after the fact to MoveOn.org’s tolerance of anti-Semitic, racist, and anti-Christian hate speech at its Action Forum. Now the NJDC is publishing the same kind of material that Nazis used to get German Christians to distrust and despise Jews....How is saying that Jews have “a visceral distrust, bordering on antipathy, for Evangelical Christians” anti-Semitic? The target of a propaganda campaign might in fact be the very people to whom the propaganda is addressed. Here is an example of this form of propaganda, straight...

The material quoted by the National “Jewish” Democratic Council is, in fact, similar to Nazi propaganda whose purpose was to incite hatred of Jews. From “Propaganda and Children during the Hitler Years” by Mary Mills, "Drawing on several centuries of anti-semitism, Bauer intensifies her anti-semitic assault by making the virtuous German the object of the Jewish hate. ...An example of this concept of the Jew as a Christian-hater occurs in Uncovered Jewry, Or A Thorough And Truthful Report About The Horrible Ways The Hidden Jews Desecrate The Holy Trinity." Let’s see what National Jewish Democratic Council quoted again: "More than...

The blog entry cites an article that says, "More than identifying the schism on any specific topic, the research describes a visceral distrust, bordering on antipathy, for Evangelical Christians on the part of American Jews." This is from the same organization, the National Democratic Jewish Council, that is knowingly and willfully whitewashing MoveOn.org for welcoming anti-Semitic and, to a lesser degree, anti-Christian hate speech at its Action Forum. (See http://www.stentorian.com/MoveOn/stooges.html#NJDC for details). I am Jewish and, far from feeling any antipathy for evangelical Christians, I share most of their values if not their theology. This reprehensible organization is obviously trying...

As a Jewish Conservative, I found this animation sick and offensive on a number of levels that should be obvious. It relies on many of the stereotypes these types of people always cry outrage about. Show this to other Jews who might be leaning conservative to truly reveal what the Jewish Democratic establishment thinks about American security and our President. Obviously, this type of thing is important in places like Florida and elsewhere.

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Speakers at this week's Republican convention make their remarks at a wooden podium that some Jewish groups find offensive because its decorative panels appear to form the shape of a Christian cross. A cross is even more visible in a waist-high gavel stand adjacent to the podium, leading some to question whether the party is trying to send a subtle message to its base among conservative Christians. "It is the very height of insensitivity for the Republican Party to feature a cross at the center of the podium of this convention," Ira Forman, executive director of...

Christophobia, Paranoia, and the Republican Convention. Where do all of these "cross"? When neo-Jewish and Marxist groups collect their schizophrenic thoughts on the Republican Convention, we see the results: Christophobia. Crosses seem to follow them everywhere -- the scurrying little feet on the bottom of the vertical beam always keep up. Jesus is silently talking to them, and they can't get it out of their heads.   Do these groups get offended whenever they drive up to a street intersection? One needs to wonder what's the difference between a Christian cross and one that's secular. My previous post (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/PghPL1/message/33) already...

Ready to Rumble: More than 20 Jewish Democratic lawmakers are volunteering to debate President Bush's Jewish Republican partisans on any aspect of John Kerry's record. "The Bush-Cheney campaign thought they could get away with mischaracterizing Kerry's record. Let's do Israel. Let's do domestic policy. Bring it on," said the executive director of the National Jewish Democratic Council, Ira Forman, who extended the invitation to debate in a letter to Bush's campaign manager, Ken Mehlman, and the Republican Jewish Coalition. "I can't tell you how easy it was to get them," Forman said of the Democratic lawmakers who volunteered. "We're not...
