The Washington Free Beacon is reporting that
Iran's Press TV praises Chuck Hagel. How is it possible in the 21st century that a Jew-hater like Hagel would be named Secretary if Defense? Obama.
Back in early December,
I posted on Obama's pick for Secretary
of Defense, Chuck Hagel. Much handwringing and chatter followed from
Obama's Jews, as if this was unexpected.
Geller, right again. And again. And again.

From my 2009 book, The Post-American Presidency, by Pamela Geller with Robert Spencer:
Like Brzezinski,
[Rosa] Brooks also indulged in the familiar anti-Semite’s complaint: that a few simple
criticisms of Israel got one slapped with accusations of…anti-Semitism.
(Neither, of course, seemed inclined to own up to how they had prejudged the
case and stacked the deck against Israel.) Brooks enunciated this complaint in
this way in 2006: “Publish something sharply critical of Israeli government
policies and you’ll find out. If you’re lucky, you’ll merely discover that
you’ve been uninvited to some dinner parties. If you’re less lucky, you’ll be
the subject of an all-out attack by neoconservative pundits and accused of
rabid anti-Semitism.”[i]Chuck Hagel
Former Senator
Chuck Hagel (R-NE) would probably have agreed with Brooks. According to the Jerusalem Post, he was “one of a handful
of senators who frequently didn’t sign AIPAC-backed letters related to Israel
and the peace process during his time in the Senate and opposed additional
sanctions on Iran.”Apparently, like
Brooks, he has faced criticism for these anti-Israel stances – and has
complained that “the Jewish lobby intimidates a lot of people.”[ii]Yet Hagel himself
doesn’t seem to have been particularly intimidated. In the Senate he amassed a
significant track record as one of a hardline hater of Israel who would not
affix his name even to the most innocuous pro-Israel initiative. When all but
four Senators signed a pro-Israel statement in 2000, Hagel was one of the
holdouts. The next year, he was again among the few Senators – eleven this time
– who refused to add their names to a statement urging George W. Bush not to
meet with Yaser Arafat as long as the Palestinian groups under his control
continued to pursue violence against Israel. In 2005, Hagel, along with 26
other senators, opposed a call to the Palestinian Authority to disqualify
terror groups from participating in elections. And when twelve senators wrote
to the European Union in 2006 asking that the EU join the U.S. in classifying
Hezbollah as a terrorist organization, Hagel was once again one of the few.[iii]Hagel wasn’t intimidated, and Barack
Hussein Obama wasn’t either. In late October 2009 he appointed Hagel co-chair
of his Intelligence Advisory Board.[iv] And in a
particularly piquant symbolic move, the appointment was announced at J Street’s
first annual conference – by Steve Clemons of George Soros’s New America
Foundation.[v]And the effect of
all this showed in his policies, beginning almost immediately when he took
office.It bodes ill for
Jews just how comfortable and at ease Obama obviously is with proud
anti-Semites and Israel haters. Obama has appointed all these people, but has
concealed their true natures.

True to form the fraud in the WH has picked an anti-semite for Defence Secretary. I wonder what the Jews who voted him in for another 4 years are thinking now!

Praise God! We need more loyal, patriotic Americans who put America first. I’m tired of that foreign land being interjected when it comes time for election or appointment. We have allies all around the globe. I don’t hear anyone whining about how pro-Australia or pro-Brazil or pro-Japan someone is. These folks that interject Israel into everything USA does should move to their country of allegiance – Israel – instead of lobbying on her behalf, sometimes at our expense. Geller doesn’t represent most American Jews. Most American Jews are loyal, patriotic, or even indifferent. Like Muslim Extremists & Fundamentalist Christians, Geller is a Jewish Extremist.

With a shared and almost identical world view seared in deeply by their Vietnam experience, Kerry and Hagel will assuredly give obama exactly the expected advice he wants to hear: Appease , runaway, select any contingency, any but…, so long as for now we don’t get into another Vietnam.

Historical speaking, obama has strengthened his future defense for having allowed under his watch the undoing of our National security for perpetuity: “I only followed the best advice given to me by my advisors” (Kerry, Hagel).
Unfortunately, both advisors knowledge and vision is confined narrowly by the tall grass of Vietnam

More important is that Hagel is a major player for Globalism. He is the Chairman for the Atlantic Council, a Rockerfeller stooge. They just released a study for America in the Post Western World! Not only does he hate Israel, he also hates Western Civilization!
He also sits on a few major financial institutions making him a BANKSTER tool.One board he sits on is Duetche(SP) Bank. They financed Hitler’s concentration camps. Do an engine search!
