Pamela Geller, WND Column: The Liberals’ Conservative

Don't miss my WND column today — a profile of Jennifer Rubin, the appalling pseudo-conservative that the WaPo props up. The mainstream media will never feature a true conservative.

One of the worst aspects of the mainstream media is their tendency to prop up false and weak conservatives, and then claim they're giving voice to all sides of today's public debate.

Jennifer Rubin of the Washington Post is a prime example. She best represents the liberal's idea of a conservative. She is weak, at best. So naive and ignorant is Rubin about the stealth jihad and creeping Shariah that she dismisses as "ridiculous" the observation that 10 years after 9/11, we are losing – even though no government or law enforcement entity is doing a single thing about that stealth jihad as it continues to advance.

Similarly clueless and cowardly was her response to Newt Gingrich's unexpectedly statesmanlike and courageous observations that the "Palestinians" were an "invented people," a nationality made up out of whole cloth to further the Islamic jihad against Israel. In a piece on Gingrich's detractors, Caroline Glick noted that "the attackers' most outspoken representative has been Washington Post blogger Jennifer Rubin. These insiders argue that although Gingrich spoke the truth, it was irresponsible and unstatesmanlike for him to have done so."

Glick quotes Rubin asking: "Do conservatives really think it is a good idea for their nominee to reverse decades of U.S. policy and deny there is a Palestinian national identity?"

Yes, of course it's a good idea. If that U.S. policy is based on jihadist propaganda, the only interests that will be served by perpetuating this fiction will be those of the jihadists. But since Rubin hardly realizes that there is a jihad anyway, she missed that. Her cluelessness builds on itself.

Glick points out that in the view of Jennifer Rubin and others like her, "Gingrich is an irresponsible flamethrower because he is turning his back on a 30-year bipartisan consensus. That consensus is based on ignoring the fact that the Palestinians are an artificial people whose identity sprang not from any shared historical experience, but from opposition to Jewish nationalism."

Also clueless and dangerous was Rubin's take on the "Arab Spring," i.e. the Islamic supremacist winter, but in that Rubin was just following the liberal media herd. (And that's part of the problem, too.) The Islamic imperialism of the revolution was evident from the beginning. I wrote of the Muslim Brotherhood's stealth coup back in January and February of 2011. But Rubin wrote last June that while "there was and remains legitimate concern about the influence of the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt … the argument that removing Mubarak meant handing the government over to the Muslim Brotherhood has not proved correct. At least not yet." She cautioned the U.S. and other Western powers to avoid "fanning hysteria that Egypt is on the brink of falling into the Islamist camp." She even added a warning: "The more time we devote to the latter, the greater chance it becomes a self-fulfilling prophesy."

Is she kidding? It's our fault? Spoken like a true jihadist. What's next? Sept. 11 was our fault?

Is there a synagogue out there that I can join that does not have false Jews like Jennifer Rubin as members? They are ruining my spiritual journey.

These days the word “Consensus” could be replaced by Damned or doomed.

I interviewed someone who was running for Congress a few years ago and he stated that the war is making things worse and making those in the middle east hate us more. So I asked him what we did prior to 9/11 and he stuttered out a few words but really said nothing. Oh, and he lost.
When reporters make assertions such as Rubin did, they need to be asked about it over and over again. Leave a few words in the comments section. If this is reported in your local paper, call the paper. E-mail the president of the paper. They get the e-mails and read them. Don’t let them continue doing this type of thing.

Will I ever stop being surprised by the stupidity of our jewish folks. I am a convert to judiasm and the reason, I saw a little country named Israel, who behaved properly but was tough, tough enough to be fair, to be considerate of everyone’s right to pray, to uphold women’s rights, to be established so that Jews had a place to go and not be killed senselessly. Now we have Jews condemning Israel for what, for putting up a fence, for not allowing suicide bombers into their country to kill their people and the many other people and religions who reside there, to retaliate when they are constantly bombarded with rockets from the wonderful Palestinians who don’t want peace, but their destruction. This is their crime. NEVER AGAIN, This is just like Germany where the Jews kept quiet, tried to appease their persecutors and we lost 6 millions of them. So NEVER AGAIN. and shame on you Jennifer Rubin because you have absolutely no idea what you are talking about.
