Michigan Democrat: Hamas legitimate – Israel is the aggressor

27

I have long said the Democrats are the party of jihad and Jew-hatred, eliciting the well-worn catcalls and caterwauling of the left-wing smear merchants and goosestepping trolls. But no matter silky smooth the silver-tongued snakes are, reality keeps breaking through. What is shameful about this is that Garlin Gilchrist’s views are mainstream in the Democrat Party today. He should never have been chosen as a candidate for Lieutenant Governor with hateful views of this kind, but this is the way the Democrat leadership, and the Democrat base, thinks. They want candidates like Garlin Gilchrist. And they know they’ll win, because this is their base today.

“Michigan Democrat: Hamas legitimate – Israel is the aggressor,” by David Rosenberg, Israel National News, September 5, 2018 (thanks to Christian):

The Democratic ticket in Michigan’s gubernatorial race has come under fire again, after it was revealed that the nominee for Lieutenant Governor made statements condemning Israel and legitimizing the Hamas terrorist organization.

Story continues below advertisement

This after the gubernatorial candidate refused to denounce the anti-Israel Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement at a meeting with voters late last month.

Last month, Michigan Democrats nominated former county prosecutor and former Minority Leader of the Michigan Senate Gretchen Whitmer for this November’s gubernatorial race. Joining Whitmer on the ticket is Garlin Gilchrist, a political activist from Detroit and self-described “nonprofit leader”, who is running for Lieutenant Governor.

During a town hall event in late August, Whitmer refused to condemn the anti-Israel BDS movement, avoiding the question when asked and responding only that she would defend the First Amendment right of free speech.

“I recognize the fundamental rights are that we have the right to speak,” Whitmer said, according to video footage of the event obtained by the Washington Free Beacon. “No one gets to infringe on those rights on my watch.”

Following Whitmer’s refusal to take a stance on BDS, it was revealed that her running mate had a history of controversial statements vis-à-vis the Jewish state.

While Gilchrist, who has never held public office before, drew little attention during his primary bid, last week comments – including a statement supporting Hamas as a the ‘legitimate’ representative of Gaza – were unearthed.

On January 4th, 2009, Gilchrist tweeted that he was sick of politicians and Evangelical Christians “kissing Israel’s ass.”

“I’m suck [sic] of politicians and Evangelicals kissing Israel’s ass regardless of what they do in the name of ‘defense’.”

Two days later, Gilchrist expressed hope that then-President Barack Obama would end the “Israel-can-do-no-wrong approach”.

In a follow-up comment, Gilchrist expressed his support for the Gaza-based Hamas terror group as the ‘legitimate’ representative of Gaza, while condemning “Israeli aggression”….

WHAT THE QUR’AN REALLY SAYS

by Shaykh Prof. Abdul Hadi Palazzi

http://www.templemount.org/quranland.html

THE QUR’AN SAYS THAT ALLAH GAVE THE LAND OF ISRAEL TO THE JEWS AND WILL RESTORE THEM TO IT AT THE END OF DAYS

THE QUR’AN SAYS:

“To Moses We [Allah] gave nine clear signs. Ask the Israelites how he [Moses] first appeared amongst them. Pharoah said to him: ‘Moses, I can see that you are bewitched.’ ‘You know full well,’ he [Moses] replied, ‘that none but the Lord of the heavens and the earth has revealed these visible signs. Pharoah, you are doomed.'”

“Pharoah sought to scare them [the Israelites] out of the land [of Israel]: but We [Allah] drowned him [Pharoah] together with all who were with him. Then We [Allah] said to the Israelites: ‘Dwell in this land [the Land of Israel]. When the promise of the hereafter [End of Days] comes to be fulfilled, We [Allah] shall assemble you [the Israelites] all together [in the Land of Israel].”

“We [Allah] have revealed the Qur’an with the truth, and with the truth it has come down. We have sent you [Muhammed] forth only to proclaim good news and to give warning.”

[Qur’an, “Night Journey,” chapter 17:100-104]

………………..BTW, Palestine is NOT mentioned ONCE in the Qur’an!

So is this the same chapter that gives the muslums the right to the Temple Mount (i.e. through muhamMAD’s flying to the “furthest mosque” being construed to be the Temple Mount) on the back of a flying donkey w/the head of a woman?

Like always, the left manages to twist right and wrong inside and out — in reality, Hamas is the aggressor, and Israel is legitimate.

This man is truly in the mold of Obama. We must not forget that it was Obama and the Democrats who left America with the highest debt in history. That Obama and the Democrats paid to Iran (a country that seeks the destruction of both America and Israel) 150 billion and entered into a deal with the rulers there that began as a capitulation and today appears to the be the basis for the continuing terror that is not only affecting the Middle East, but is elsewhere as well. We must not forget that Obama was opposed to everything Israel did, and that his anti-Semitic tendencies were more than obvious. Obama weakened our military, and from my point of view, he neither had the experience or the courage to do what POTUS was expected to do to protect and preserve this great nation. When will those who call themselves Democrats see that reality. The ones who are running for office today have no agenda except to obstruct Trump, and the youth they are putting out there to run for election have forgotten what to be American is all about; in fact they have become socialists and they are promoting a hands out society, much to my chagrin. They allow their anti-Semitism to distance themselves from the truth. Since the late 1800’s all the Jewish people wanted was a place that they could go to, to avoid physical violence. That was what “Zionism” is defined as. The Jews lived in the area that is Israel today, including Judea and Samaria, for over 3000 years before the Koran. They lived there when the nation of Israel was created. They were never occupiers, and they did try to live peaceably with the Arabs, but, instead, the Arabs declared war and continue that violent conduct today. Those supporters of BDS, Hamas and the PLO are on the wrong side of both history and reality. None of them should be able to get elected to office in this nation, as they are clearly out of step with the facts of life, and they are unable to terminate their inborn anti-Semitism.

Dennis, you know full well that the current administration is going to trump Obama’s debt level, as had every administration since Kennedy. That is a disingenuous statistic.

You forgot to consider that with the incredible burst in our economy, more dollars will be produced and that will mitigate, I hope, the debt situation today and hopefully in the future. You also fail to credit Trump with making the kind of deals that, hopefully, will move us away from the category of a debtor nation. If you believe that the tax relief bill that was passed and the removal of burdensome regulations by Trump did not create these conditions today, you are living in a world of fantasy along with Obama who recognizes what has happened under Trump’s Administration and is falsely claiming that it was his doing. Obama fooled the American public for 8 years, and we all should know better. The Democrats and the media will say anything to get elected. Do not be fooled.

Do you have a degree in world political economy? How about Finance? Business? I didn’t think so. If you did, you wouldn’t be giving that black douchebag a pass.

Bobo ran up more debt than all other presidents combined. That’s just one part of the equation. The other parts include, but are not limited to:
-His refusal to reinstate Glass-Steagall
– forcing the ACA on Anerica, which has proven to be a job killer. Fewer jobs equals less tax revenue
-failure to collect $9 BILLION in back taxes (not including penalties, interest and fees) from Soros. He also has let some of his other wealthy buddies “forget” to pay their taxes.
-poor trade deals.
-calling for more illegals in this country. Costs us $130 billion/year and suppresses wages
– overkill on business regulations

These are just the tip of the iceberg. The man was either INCREDIBLY incomoetent or his goal was to destroy America.

Now, after new trade deaks are implemented, tax cuts start to show results, etc. Trump has stated that he will address our debt. But he can’t do that by himself. Congress must also be involved — and those corruot SOB’s aren’t too interested in cutting off their gravy train.

Instead of your ignorant hate, try reading up on the economy and how it works. Try to actually get informed on the topic before talking about it.

It takes a lot of money to support the military. Countries around the world are increasing their forces with the exception of Canada. Trudeau either expects the Sates to defend Canada or he simply wants China and Muslim terrorists to walk in and take over at his invitation. America also wastes billions supporting illegal invaders who should simply be sent back across the southern border.

Because left-wing Jews are Meshuga and not very bright!!

Jews that support Israel and the Republicans tend to be kinder, more intelligent, braver and have the ability to think for themselves and as our former great Prime Minister Stephen Harper said “left wing Jews go along to get along but brave Jews have the courage and integrity to support Israel when the world turns it back on Israel.

I hope everyone supporting Israel have a Happy, Healthy, Sweet Year 2018!

Lets make this a wonderful New Year full of kindness, beauty, laughter and great Health and Prosperity!

Gd bless Israel!

Hahahahahaha Shana! I’m not Jewish, but I’m an honorary Jew since I’m originally a New Yorker. And “meshuga” is the only explanation.

Also Jews who vote Dem have sometimes explained to me that they’re “used to” voting that way, kinda like the Black community. Yet others say that if they’re not religious Jews (I’ve always thought that was a contradiction in terns) they’re libs, so they feel comfortable with the leftist positions of the Dems.

L’shana tovah! God bless Israel, our great ally-

The Democrats will be the party of Nazis and Muslims and will lead us into civil war. They’re doing the exact same thing in Canada and Europe. The Conservatives must take power back then prosecute all the Muslim/Leftist Jew-haters as we would Neo-Nazis.

What a pity Sheer and not Bernier is leader of the conservatives. Bernier’s new as yet unnamed party would better represent Canada, but will likely split the vote and allow Trudeau the Traitor to get back in. Canada won’t get another shot ; a second term for the primo prick will seal her fate. Billy the bully is comin for yur guns and Kalid’s got a needle and thread for yur lips. Pucker up Rick, your ass has pack its bags and is waiting for a kiss goodbye.

OK have written him before! What they would do as typical brainwashed Muslims if they had their own country is to buy arms and continue killing Filipinos per the Quran! The Muslim clerics and mosques need to-be destroyed as the hotbed of where the hate begins! The Philippines did have a law not permitting Muslim boys to learn the Quran in the mosque on the island of Mindanao but that has failed to work! What many do not know as the Muslim men kidnap and force conversion of unbelievers in the islands! I have no time for their cult as is an organized criminal gang hiding behind a pagan death rape cult! See: http://www.policalislam.com and watch Youtube videos by Professor Dr. Bill Warner PhD!

Well-known the Demoncrap party is GODLESS and LAWLESS and COMMUNIST. Our Congogress is FOOL of them. And a house divided will fall.

They have destroyed your Constitution, made fun of Negroes since the Civil War and blame Republicans for stupid Negroes. Repugnicants FULLishly allowed MASS immigration through a mentally-ill coward called Ded Kennedy.

Perhaps that is why America has not fell yet. We are not a house divided. BOTH parties have agreed to DESTROY this country.

How is it that muslim jihadis are permitted to be in our country? It is because we have fools and criminals governing our country. How is it that these jihadis are running for political offices? If is because political tyrants and dictators are using these demons to subjugate and manipulate the populace. How is it that these jihadis are winning votes and overthrowing America within the political process? It is because the Godless populace, giving up the constant battle for freedom, has allowed itself to be brainwashed, content to be prisoners and subjects of tyrants. Most Americas, to their detriment believe that it is their duty as good citizens to hand over every right they have when told to by corrupt lawmakers.
Prescription drugs, TV, internet porn and social media distract them from reality and responsibility.
They have become sheep, penned in, waiting for their masters orders, oblivious to the coming slaughter.
