Al Jazeera's Holocaust-denial video no 'mistake'


Al Jazeera's Holocaust-denial video no 'mistake'
Celebrated terrorist, joined KKK member in blaming 9/11 on Jews
 
Two recent incidents illustrate how Islamic supremacist organizations portray one image to the Arabic-speaking world and another to the West.

In each case, the organization posted a video in Arabic filled with expressions of hatred toward Jews that drew no outrage until it was translated into English by the Middle East Media Research Institute.

And in each case, the Islamic organization insisted the posting of the video was a “mistake” that certainly was not in keeping with its beliefs and views, vowing to punish the low-level employees responsible.

This week, the Al Jazeera TV network apologized for posting on its AJ+ Arabic site a seven-minute video with the caption “The gas chambers killed millions of Jews … So the story says. How true is the #Holocaust and how did the Zionists benefit from it?”

Al Jazeera, which pressed Twitter to block the English translation of its video, blamed two rogue journalists. But the Daily Caller recounted both the news network’s and the AJ+ subsidiary’s long history of anti-Semitism, including holding a party for a terrorist and joining with a KKK member to blame 9/11 on the Jews.

In the previous incident, this month, MEMRI translated from Arabic to English a video posted on Facebook showing Muslim children at a Philadelphia Islamic school lip-syncing a song and reading poems that called for beheading and torturing Jews.

The Muslim American Society insisted the event and the posting of the video was “an unintended mistake and an oversight in which the center and the students are remorseful.” MAS promised an “internal investigation” and “sensitivity training.”

But MAS lied when it claimed it was not affiliated with the school, as records show. And the organization was founded by members of the Muslim Brotherhood and designated a terrorist organization by the United Arab Emirates.

Al Jazeera: Hitler carried out Allah’s punishment

The Daily Caller presented evidence that Al Jazeera “pushes Islamic rhetoric in Arabic but has wrapped itself in progressive liberalism in English, is controlled by the royal family of Qatar.”

One of Al Jazeera’s most popular weekly programs, for example, was called “Sharia and Life,” hosted by Muslim Brotherhood spiritual leader Sheik Yousuf Al-Qaradhawi.

In January 2009, he said the Holocaust was “divine punishment.”

“Allah has imposed upon the [Jews] people who would punish them for their corruption,” he said. “The last punishment was carried out by Hitler. By means of all the things he did to them – even though they exaggerated this issue – he managed to put them in their place. This was divine punishment for them.

“Allah willing,” Qaradhawi continued, “the next time will be at the hand of the believers. … I will shoot Allah’s enemies, the Jews, and they will throw a bomb at me, and thus, I will seal my life with martyrdom. Praise be to Allah, Lord of the Worlds. Allah’s mercy and blessings upon you.”

In 2008, the network held an on-air party for Palestinian Liberation Front terrorist Samir Kuntar after he was released from prison for murdering a 4-year-old Jewish girl.

Al Jazeera’s Beirut bureau chief called him a “Pan-Arab hero.”

In 2002, the Daily Caller reported, Al Jazeera interviewed former Klu Klux Klan official David Duke. Both Duke and the Al Jazeera journalist blamed 9/11 on the Israelis, as the Middle East Forum noted.

In 2017, Al Jazeera English did an undercover investigation of Jewish advocacy organizations and produced a documentary series called “The Lobby.”

Middle East Forum found that while Al Jazeera, under pressure, did not air the program in the United States, the tapes mysteriously wound up in the hands of neo-Nazi website the Daily Stormer.

Al Jazeera also promoted conspiracies claiming President George W. Bush and Jews were engaged in a “Crusader Zionist campaign” to turn Europe against Muslims.

Photo Shows John Cusack Sitting During Military Salute At Cubs Game. The Actor Hits 'MAGA F***' When Defending Himself.


Photo Shows John Cusack Sitting During Military Salute At Cubs Game. The Actor Hits 'MAGA F***' When Defending Himself.

On Thursday, a viral photo of vocal anti-Trump actor John Cusack sitting down during a military salute at Wrigley Field sparked criticism online.

"Here’s [John Cusack] staying firmly seated during tonight's military salute at Wrigley Field," read a tweet featuring a photo of the actor surrounded by standing folks at a Cubs game on Wednesday.
Cusack gave a slew of angry responses in reaction to the photo. He claimed that he was merely slow to stand up for the salute, while also belittling patriotism and suggesting the military salute at Wrigley Field was just promoting the military industrial complex.

"I didn’t stand up for Boeing military salute — fast enough for some maga f*** - see?" the actor wrote in a tweet, referencing a supporter of President Donald Trump.

"I stood up— just not on que — like an Obedient pet," he added. "I made a film called war inc — watch that."

Cusack again noted that his actions were a "non protest": "They worship a draft dodger who insults POWs, but freak out if someone silently protests at a sports event. The irony is...next level."

In other tweets and retweets posted by Cusack, the actor continued criticizing views on patriotism and questioning the president’s patriotism:

Cusack has been a vocal critic of the president, calling for a coup against “ill, deranged and dangerous” Trump in June.

"Let’s go to streets — Who owns the streets? Civil disobedience," he wrote in a tweet, which is no longer viewable on Twitter. "Require the government to leave if you are not satisfied with it. We need to kick Trump out of the office now He’s ill, deranged and dangerous. He’s putting children in cages — f*** the Nazis — shut them down."

"Cusack continued to call for Trump's removal and accused the current administration of placing illegal immigrant children in cages at the South border," The Daily Wire reported at the time. "Cusack was likely referencing photos taken during the Obama Administration that were wrongly credited to Trump by the media, last week. As noted by Daily Wire Editor-in-Chief Ben Shapiro, it is Democrats and leftist judges who have said that children cannot be detained, meaning kids are being ripped from their parents when the government enforces the law concerning illegal border crossings."

In that same month, Hollywood player and sister of Jane Fonda, Peter Fonda, went off the rails with his Trump-hatred. "Fonda, 78, ... called White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders and Secretary of Homeland Security Kirstjen Nielsen ‘g***es,' which he noted is "much worse than c***.’ Sanders should have her children ripped from her and given ‘to Stephen Goebbels Miller for safe keeping.’ He called for the stripping and whipping of Nielsen, too. Additionally, Fonda suggested ICE agents be doxxed and anti-Trumpers find out where their children go to school and harass them," The Daily Wire reported.

"WE SHOULD RIP BARRON TRUMP FROM HIS MOTHER’S ARMS AND PUT HIM IN A CAGE WITH PEDOPHILES AND SEE IF MOTHER WILL WILL STAND UP AGAINST THE GIANT A**HOLE SHE IS MARRIED TO. 90 MILLION PEOPLE IN THE STREETS ON THE SAME WEEKEND IN THE COUNTRY. F***," Fonda posted in a tweet.

In another tweet, Fonda wrote: "Kristjen Nielsen is a lying g*** that should be put in a cage and poked at by passersby. The gash should be pilloried in Lafayette Square naked and whipped by passersby while being filmed for posterity."

Regarding Sanders, Fonda said: "SS (Sarah Sanders) is a lying g***, too. And “g***” is much worse than c***. Maybe we should take her children away and deport her to Arkansas, and giving her children to Stephen Goebbels Miller for safe keeping."

Traitor: "Hanoi Jane" Fonda
The Patriot Post
She was born Lady Jayne Seymour Fonda, but earned her reputation as "Hanoi Jane" Fonda after "aiding and abetting" the enemy -- North Vietnam -- as documented in these photos taken in Hanoi (July 1972):
Hanoi Jane on North Vietnamese anti-aircraft gun: A few hundred yards from the location of this photograph, American POWs were being subjected to all manner of torture at the "Hanoi Hilton." You can read about one of those POWs, Col. Roger Ingvalson, whose aircraft was shot down by an NVA-AAG similar to the gun Hanoi Jane is straddling.

Hanoi Jane laughing it up
Showing her admiration
Fonda called returning POWs "hypocrites and liars," adding, "These were not men who had been tortured. These were not men who had been starved. These were not men who had been brainwashed. ... Pilots were saying it was the policy of the Vietnamese and that it was systematic. I believe that's a lie." You can read about one of Fondas "hypocrites and liars" in this Veterans Day Profile: Point Man, Roger Helle
 Visiting with Friends
Looking for target 
With Tom Hayden back from Hanoi
Read the transcript of Hanoi Jane's propaganda radio broadcast delivered in Hanoi, North Vietnam on August 22, 1972.

As for the success of anti-democracy protests by radical protagonists like Fonda, John Kerry and others, Hanoi could not have been more pleased.

General Vo Nguyen Giap, supreme leader of the North Vietnamese Army, told CBS in a 1989 interview: "We paid a high price [during the Tet offensive] but so did you [Americans] ... not only in lives and materiel. Do not forget the war was brought into the living rooms of the American people. ... The most important result of the Tet offensive was it made you de-escalate the bombing, and it brought you to the negotiation table. It was, therefore, a victory.... The war was fought on many fronts. At that time the most important one was American public opinion. "

More to the point, in a 1995 interview with The Wall Street Journal, Bui Tin, a communist contemporary of Giap and Ho Chi Minh, who was serving as an NVA colonel assigned to the general staff at the time Saigon fell, had this to say about the Leftmedia and Soviet puppets like "Hanoi" Jane Fonda and John Kerry: "[They were] essential to our strategy. Support of the war from our rear was completely secure while the American rear was vulnerable. Every day our leadership would listen to world news over the radio to follow the growth of the American antiwar movement. Visits to Hanoi by people like Jane Fonda, and former Attorney General Ramsey Clark and ministers gave us confidence that we should hold on in the face of battlefield reverses."

Bui stated further, "Those people represented the conscience of America. The conscience of America was part of its war-making capability, and we were turning that power in our favor. America lost because of its democracy; through dissent and protest it lost the ability to mobilize a will to win."

Most notably, Bui observed, that the 1968 Tet Offensive was "to weaken American resolve during a presidential-election year. We had the impression that American commanders had their hands tied by political factors. Your generals could never deploy a maximum force for greatest military effect."

Sixteen years later, under enormous pressure after Ronald Reagan had restored the honorable social standing of military service, Fonda admitted to former American POWs and their families that she regretted the pain she caused them. Few accepted her apology.
Fonda Power
In a 2005 interview with CBS, Fonda reiterated that she had no regrets about her trip to North Vietnam in 1972. "There are hundreds of American delegations that had met with the POWs. Both sides were using the POWs for propaganda... It's not something that I will apologize for."
Peace
More Peace
Fonda with last in husband line, Ted Turner, Village drunk and self-appointed ambassador to North Korea, who observed recently, "Obviously, I don’t like to see nuclear proliferation, and I’m very upset about [the North Korean test]," as opposed to his earlier position being "absolutely convinced that the North Koreans are absolutely sincere" about not developing nuclear weapons.
What a life
Hanoi Jane's real life -- so far...

Are You Sure You Want to Play Russian Roulette With Your Child’s Values?


Are You Sure You Want to Play Russian Roulette With Your Child’s Values?
By Dennis Prager
Published on May 21, 2019
Most Americans are not aware how morally and intellectually destructive American colleges — and, increasingly, high schools and even elementary schools — have become. So, they spend tens of thousands after-tax dollars to send their sons and daughters to college.

But today, to send your child to college is to play Russian roulette with their values. There is a good chance your child will return from college alienated from you, from America, from Western civilization and from whatever expression of any Bible-based religion in which you raised your child.

What’s Happening on College Campuses?

If you think this is in any way an exaggeration, here is some of what has happened on campuses in recent months:

Harvard University fired law professor Ron Sullivan from his position as faculty dean of Winthrop House, a student residential hall, because he was one of Harvey Weinstein’s lawyers. (He has since resigned from the Weinstein legal team.) Some female Harvard students said they felt “unsafe” with Sullivan as a faculty dean.

Alan Dershowitz, a professor emeritus at Harvard Law, said the decision “may be the worst violation of academic freedom during my 55-year association with Harvard.” Laurence Tribe, also a professor at Harvard Law, said he could not recall a “worse” blunder in his 50 years as a professor there.

Also at Harvard, all-black graduation exercises were initiated. And like most other colleges, Harvard has long allowed an all-black student dorm to exist on campus.

Help us champion truth, freedom, limited government and human dignity. Support The Stream »

If nothing else, this provides additional proof of the vast difference between liberalism and leftism. That is why liberals such as Dershowitz, Tribe and numerous liberal writers have condemned Harvard’s cowardly capitulation to a few female students. Unfortunately for America, however, most liberals will not confront the fact that they have far more to fear from the left than from the right. Conservatives are not the enemy of liberalism; the left is.

In Minnesota, some students at South St. Paul Secondary petitioned the administration to allow students to wear sashes — stoles — with ethnic and LGBT colors to celebrate their identities. As one student said in leftist English, “I’m able to repurpose what was once an obstacle into a source of energy and pride.”

As reported in the Minneapolis Star Tribune: “If they’re not allowed to don the sashes, some students have talked about wearing them anyway, said Naomi Gedey, a Black Pride Organization leader. Gedey added that many immigrant students also hope to wear flags of their nations of origin.”

Other Minnesota schools already allow students “to don so-called ‘identity adornments.'”

American Public School No Longer Americanize Students

Those who still believe that one of the primary purposes of American public (and most private) schools is to Americanize students should know this is no longer the case. On the contrary, most American high schools now celebrate every identity except American identity (which the left brands a euphemism for white supremacy).

Meanwhile, at its commencement next month, the City University of New York will award an honorary doctorate of humane letters to Al Sharpton.

Among the many nonhumane activities Sharpton has been involved in was the infamous Tawana Brawley hoax, in which he fabricated a charge that four white men had raped a young black woman named Tawana Brawley.

Sharpton also runs a phony civil rights organization called the National Action Network, which has collected many millions of dollars from corporations in what essentially amounts to an extortion racket that enables those corporations to buy racial peace.

And Sharpton helped stoke the Jew-hatred that sparked black anti-Jewish riots in 1991. In a book published in 2006, Edward S. Shapiro, a Brandeis University historian, described the riot as “the most serious anti-Semitic incident in American history.”

In Pennsylvania, the Sabold Elementary School in Springfield announced that its principal will no longer say “God bless America” after the Pledge of Allegiance. The school district released a statement two weeks ago stating that the principal saying “God bless America” “violated the law.”

And of course, college students across the country are increasingly taught, often from their first day at college, that being male and female is a choice, not a biological fact.

Other than Hillsdale and a handful of other colleges and religious colleges, the American university has become nothing more than a left-wing seminary.

Buyer beware.
