(Obama) Calling in the God squad (Sharpton) to save the Iran deal
Politico ^ | August 17, 2015 | Nahal Toosi

The White House campaign to save the Iran nuclear deal is getting a boost from the God squad.

Faith-based groups, many of them increasingly nervous about the well-funded push by opponents of the deal, are intensifying their lobbying of lawmakers ahead of an important congressional vote on the agreement.

Over the weekend, the Rev. Al Sharpton called on black churches to mobilize in support of the nuclear deal. On Monday, a group of 340 rabbis from multiple strands of Judaism released a letter, urging lawmakers to vote for the agreement. And plans are in the works for a coordinated rollout of endorsements by a number of religious groups next week, an organizer said.

The campaign is led largely by Catholic and Quaker groups, such as the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops and the Friends Committee on National Legislation, and it reflects many of the organizations’ traditional anti-war stances. It also comes as themes of anti-Semitism and Islamism have risen in the debate.

When talking about Al Sharpton the god squad should have a small “d”.

Al worships the prince of the power of the air, not the God of the Bible.

If you think that Al Sharpton is going to save the Iran deal, then you are seriously deluded. All Al knows how to do is shakedown people for money.

Getting a Jew-hating SOB to sell his Iran deal. Yeah, nothing to see here, folks.

You know you're desperate when you turn to a paid shill like Al.

I've been against the Iran deal from the outset. Now seeing that Sharpton is going to be bloviating for it...just makes me that much more certain the Iran deal is a bad deal.

To hell with Sharpton.

He's an ignorant charlatan.

The fool doesn't even have the intelligence to read a teleprompter.

What should really disturb everyone is this:

a group of 340 rabbis from multiple strands of Judaism released a letter, urging lawmakers to vote for the agreement.

So, Judaism is advocating for their own destruction at the hands of a bunch of jihadi mooselimbs that have no other purpose in their pitiful lives but to see the total destruction of all Jews and the downfall of the United States of America and Israel.

I am amazed at the depth to which some people can stick their heads into the sand.

Yeah, they say, “We have a list!”, yet we do not see the list. If the list exists, one wonders how many on the list are self-appointed rabbis. Also, let us give Dear Reader the benefit of the doubt and accept the notion that there is a genuine list of 340 Rabbis and ask how many rabbis are there in the USA? I’ll wager that there are thousands of Rabbis in the USA.

Ah, but Sharpton is an idol to the Organiser -in-Chief. Obama thinks that Al Sharpton is a significant figure and shall provide much persuasive gravitas to The One’s efforts; thus, we have another example of the delusional and outdated mindset of Dear Reader.

he may be able to incite a riot over a Jewish-owned business in Harlem but Reverend Al doesn't have either the oratorical skills or the smarts to make the Iran deal relevant and of import to any black churchgoers. And even they are getting upset with President Pro-Homo Obama.

Let’s understand that if they actually got 340 rabbis to sign off on this deal, that 338 are probably from Reform, Reconstructionist and Conservative congregations. The other 2 (or whatever very small number) that claim to be Orthodox are either utter fools, bought and paid for, or blackmailed. The Reform and the Reconstructionist are the vast majority of that number, and they aren’t real Jews by anything but birth - they don’t believe AT ALL in the divinity of the 5 Books of Moses, they don’t observe the Sabbath and they don’t keep kosher. They regularly intermarry their children, and see nothing wrong with it. They, for all practical purposes, believe in Liberalism or Leftism above the religion of their ancestors. Also, I’ll bet that many of these “rabbis” are women...so they are not really rabbis by any traditional definition, since Judaism does not allow for the ordination of women. By their very claim of the title “rabbi” they are an affront to authentic Judaism.

The point here is that you can find a few hundred “leaders” of any group to say just about any thing...and the Obamanoids have done that here. This is about blind loyalty to a man and his ideology, not about enlightened self-interest.

Most of us Jews are 100% against this agreement, and were even before it was announced (based upon “leaks” of what was in it). We understand quite well that this agreement will hasten the acquisition of nukes by Iran, and also enrich the terrorist operations of Iran everywhere in the world. It represents a mortal threat to Israel, and with that a mortal threat to all Jews, everywhere. The Holocaust was only possible because there was no refuge for Jews, and no armed force ready to come to the aid of Jews trying to survive. Eliminate Israel, and all Jews become much more vulnerable to those that hate them.

I, as a Jew, hereby completely and totally disavow any statements or positions taken by this group of 340 so-called rabbis. They do not speak for me, my family or my community. They spit in G-d’s face by placing His nation at risk of destruction.

Description

#1 bestselling author and radio host Glenn Beck exposes the real truth behind the roots of Islamic extremism in Muslim teachings in this sharply insightful handbook that debunks commonly held assumptions about Islam and the dream of a renewed caliphate.

From the barbarians of ISIS to the terror tactics of Al-Qaeda and its offshoots, to the impending threat of a nuclear Iran, those motivated by extreme fundamentalist Islamic faith have the power to endanger and kill millions. The conflict with them will not end until we face the truth about those who find their inspiration and justification in the religion itself.

Drawing on quotes from the Koran and the hadith, as well as from leaders of ISIS, Al Qaeda, and the Muslim Brotherhood, Glenn Beck seeks to expose the true origins of Islamic extremism as well as the deadly theological motivations behind these agencies of destruction. Using the same unique no-holds-barred style from his bestselling books "Control" and "Conform," Glenn Beck offers straight facts and history about the fundamental beliefs that inspire so many to kill.
