Hamas Manifesto on TUCC Pastor’s Page of Newsletter
Obama Denies being Around

I know this is probably old news to many of this Website’s readers; however I just ran into today. A couple days ago CreepingSharia.com roughly reprinted the story of BizzyBlog’s exposing that Obama’s Church – the Trinity United Church of Christ (TUCC) – published support of the Hamas Manifesto on Jeremiah Wright’s “Pastor’s Page” of the Church newsletter. BizzyBlog broke the news, but I read about on CreepingSharia.com thus I then posted from the CreepingSharia.com perspective.
I am now learning from WorldNetDaily that Obama contacted the Jewish Telegraphic Agency to condemn Hamas and to explain (once again) he was not present at TUCC when the terrorist-racist support was expressed by Jeremiah Wright and TUCC by publishing the Newsletter which had the Hamas Manifested in it from a reprint of a Los Angeles Times editorial written by Islamic Terrorist Mousa Abu Marzook.
Is it just me noticing this: Obama seems to never be present at TUCC when the racism and pro-Terrorist and anti-American rhetoric comes from the pulpit or the Church’s written word?
I am beginning to wonder if Obama is following the old Goebbels paradigm on propaganda:
“If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.” – Joseph Goebbels (Emphasis Mine)
I mean Obama has been making an awful lot of denials and many condemnations over and over again … has not he?
Why is the Hamas Manifesto such a big deal? It is because America’s own State Department has Hamas listed as a terrorist organization. Hamas has essentially rebelled against the PA in the Gaza Strip and basically run the show there. Part of the Hamas Manifesto (actual document link) is a call for the unmitigated and utter destruction of Israel which would of course if successful lead to another Holocaust of carnage that would make Hitler happy in hell that the Final Solution is continuing even after his demise.

Obama: 'Outrageously wrong' to reprint Hamas manifesto
Says 'I certainly wasn't in church' when defense of terror appeared on 'Pastor's Page' of bulletin

Once again, Democrat presidential candidate Barack Obama is distancing himself from a statement made by his Chicago church and defending himself by saying he wasn't present when the statement was made.
This time, Obama is reacting to a WND report of the church's decision to reprint a manifesto by a Hamas spokesman that defended terrorism as legitimate resistance, refused to recognize the right of Israel to exist and compared the terror group's official charter – which calls for the murder of Jews – to America's Declaration of Independence.
The Hamas piece was published on the "Pastor's Page" of the Trinity United Church of Christ newsletter reserved for Rev. Jeremiah Wright Jr., whose anti-American, anti-Israel remarks landed Obama in hot water, prompting the presidential candidate to deliver a major race speech earlier this week.
Hamas, responsible for scores of shootings, suicide bombings and rocket launchings against civilian population centers, is listed as a terrorist group by the U.S. State Department.
In his July 22, 2007, church newsletter, Wright reprinted an article by Mousa Abu Marzook, identified in the publication as a "deputy of the political bureau of Hamas." A photo image of the piece was captured and posted today by the business blog BizzyBlog, which first brought attention to it. The Hamas article was first published by the Los Angeles Times, garnering the newspaper much criticism.
Late Thursday, following WND's story, Obama e-mailed a statement to the Jewish Telegraphic Agency criticizing Hamas and noting that he was not in church the day the bulletin was distributed.
"I have already condemned my former pastor's views on Israel in the strongest possible terms, and I certainly wasn't in church when that outrageously wrong Los Angeles Times piece was re-printed in the bulletin," Obama said.
"Hamas is a terrorist organization, responsible for the deaths of many innocents, and dedicated to Israel's destruction, as evidenced by their bombarding of Sderot in recent months. I support requiring Hamas to meet the international community's conditions of recognizing Israel, renouncing violence, and abiding by past agreements before they are treated as a legitimate actor," he said
WND has quoted Israeli security officials who express "concern" about Robert Malley, an adviser to Obama who has advocated negotiations with Hamas and providing international assistance to the terrorist group.
Malley has penned numerous opinion articles, many of them co-written with a former adviser to the late Palestinian Authority President Yasser Arafat, petitioning for dialogue with Hamas and blasting Israel for policies he says harm the Palestinian cause.
Malley also previously penned a well-circulated New York Review of Books piece largely blaming Israel for the collapse of the Israeli-Palestinian negotiations at Camp David in 2000 when Arafat turned down a Palestinian state in the West Bank, Gaza and eastern sections of Jerusalem and instead returned to the Middle East to launch an intifada, or terrorist campaign, against the Jewish state.
In February 2006, after Hamas won a majority of seats in the Palestinian parliament and amid a U.S. and Israeli attempt to isolate the Hamas-run Palestinian Authority, Malley wrote an op-ed for the Baltimore Sun advocating international aid to the terror group's newly formed government.
Malley said the U.S. should not "discourage third-party unofficial contacts with [Hamas] in an attempt to moderate it."
In a separate statement received by JTA and timed to coincide with the Jewish holiday of Purim, the Obama campaign referenced the Bible's story of Queen Esther to condemn anti-Semitism:
"The story of Queen Esther and her uncle Mordechai saving the Jews of ancient Persia from destruction," his statement said. "Even as the parties are held, the songs are sung, and the noisemakers are rattled, the history of a people that has had to fight for its survival, remains at the heart of the Purim story. In our day, the celebration is mingled with a determination to ensure that Israel remains safe and strong, that we fight anti-Semitism wherever it occurs, and that the American Jewish community continues to play such an active and vital role in the life of our nation."

Hate Attacks by Christian Ultra-Nationalists Worry Jews of Russia
Posted January 13, 2006

Pogroms and purges of Jews are a thing of the past in Russia, but as women scrubbed the bloodstained floors of Moscow's Chabad Bronnaya synagogue on Thursday, a day after a man burst in and stabbed worshippers, alarm spread over increasingly open anti-Semitism.
Jewish leaders warned official indifference is fueling a wave of hate attacks and called for a crackdown on aggressive nationalist and fascist groups that have mushroomed in recent years. Police should guard outside synagogues and other Jewish sites, they said.
"We expect government and law enforcement agencies to take real measures to ensure this doesn't happen again," Russia's chief rabbi, Berel Lazar, said. "If there is indifference, nothing will change."
Worshippers were somber at the synagogue in downtown Moscow, where the knife-wielding man shouting "I will kill Jews" slashed and stabbed at least eight people before a rabbi's son wrestled him to the ground.
"Until yesterday, I felt completely safe but things have gotten serious now," said Nadav Zavilinsky, a 21-year-old religious student who witnessed the attack.
Among the eight men wounded were an American, an Israeli and a Tajik, chief Moscow prosecutor Anatoly Zuyev said. Four of the victims remained in serious condition Thursday.
State Department spokesman Sean McCormack denounced "this perfidious attack" and said the United States "expresses its sympathy to the wounded and their families." He also said the United States welcomed condemnation of the attack by the Russian government, "including its commitment to an investigation of this crime."
A million Jews live in Russia, according to the Federation of Jewish Communities, as the Jewish community has experienced a revival after a wave of emigration to Israel and other countries before and after the break up of the Soviet Union.
But hundreds of racially motivated attacks, including the occasional desecration of Jewish cemeteries and synagogues, have occurred in recent years in violence aimed at Jews as well as dark-skinned immigrants from former Soviet Central Asia and the Caucasus Mountains region.
More than 40 people in Russia were killed in apparently racially motivated attacks last year, according to the Moscow Bureau of Human Rights. The group estimates that Russia is home to some 50,000 skinheads and numerous neo-Nazi organizations.
Rights activists say such groups are emboldened by mild prosecution of hate crimes and they complain that Nazi and other extremist literature is sold freely.
The suspect in Wednesday's attack, identified as Alexander Koptsev, 20, was reading a book about Jews betraying Russia shortly before the assault, his father told the Kommersant daily.
Two men assaulted two rabbis near another synagogue in Moscow in January but were convicted of assault and hooliganism, which carry lesser sentences than hate crimes.
Alla Gerber, head of the Holocaust Foundation, said anti-Semitism persisted within law enforcement ranks despite high-level condemnation.
"I was shocked at what happened yesterday, but not surprised. Anti-Semitism is a traditional problem in Russia, and it is flourishing now in a general climate of xenophobia," Gerber said.
In what was seen as a step forward, President Vladimir Putin acknowledged anti-Semitism as a problem when he attended ceremonies in January marking the 60th anniversary of the liberation of the Auschwitz death camp.
But just before the Auschwitz commemorations, a group of nationalist Russian lawmakers called for an investigation aimed at outlawing all Jewish organizations, accusing Jews of fomenting ethnic hatred.
While the authorities ignored calls by human rights groups to prosecute the legislators, they investigated whether an ancient Jewish text incited religious hatred after a complaint from two nationalist activists.
Later Thursday, Moscow police chief, Vladimir Pronin promised to deploy officers to help protect synagogues. Lazar and Pronin also agreed in a meeting to set up a joint working group to monitor xenophobic propaganda and extremist groups, Lazar's office said in a statement.
The rabbi of the synagogue targeted in Wednesday's attack, Yitzhak Kogan, said Jews in modern Russia face a new threat.
"There is no more anti-Semitism on the state level, as we saw in Soviet times, but instead we have a lot of freedom for anti-Semitic groups in Russia, and the incident yesterday was one of its manifestations," Kogan said.

I commented to your post at "Ban Islam Before It Causes MORE Bloodshed and Misery." The meaning of the title is that Hamas is a terrorist organization that acts totally contrary to the post you left for me on your other comment.

Russians have been anti-semitic, anti-Christian unless it is the Russian Orthodox Church and anti-Islamic.
Russia's history is almost as violent as Islam's. It is thought their violent nature (of their ruling elite anyway) was a result of years of Mongol domination from the days of Ghengis Khan. Old Ghengis was not a pleasant fellow and may have even put Mohammed to shame in unnecessary violence and death.
Russia's hatred of the Jews stems from the belief that the whole Jewish race is responsible for the Crucifixion of Christ instead of a handful of Jewish Elders groveling to Roman power in order to remain the leader of the Jewish Temple.
In fact you may be interested to know that the Protocols of Zion was a forged myth invented by one of Czars who hated Jews. I am not that I remember why the Czar did this; however if I was to guess as most of Europe that borrowed from Jewish banking, it was a way to off the hook for debt.
The Czarist invention of the Protocols of Zion was totally believed by his subjects and has been spread to the Islamic world as fact rather than fiction.
