Bernie Sanders’ New Speechwriter Following the Boston Marathon Bombing: ‘Let’s Hope the Terrorist Was a White American’

30

This is the 21st century Democrat party, viciously antisemitic and anti-American. What proud American, what person who loves this country, would want to be affiliated with such venomous hate? This is particularly egregious, because what David Sirota was revealing was that he loves people who are not white Americans — including jihad terrorists — more than his own countrymen. It is no surprise that this treasonous thinking would be rewarded by a leading Democrat Presidential candidate. The Democrats have become the party of treason and hatred of America, and are increasingly open and unapologetic about it. So this choice for speechwriter will only help Bernie among the Democrats’ base. For the Democrats, hatred of America is what makes Bernie Sanders appealing. They’ve been moving in that direction for a long time.

“Bernie Sanders’ New Speechwriter Following the Boston Marathon Bombing: ‘Let’s Hope the Terrorist Was a White American,’” by Cassandra Fairbanks, Gateway Pundit, March 19, 2019 (thanks to Todd):

Bernie Sanders just hired David Sirota as a speechwriter for his 2020 campaign — a man who once wrote an article for far-left Salon titled, “Let’s hope the Boston Marathon bomber is a white American.”

Sirota has also praised Venezuelan dictator Hugo Chavez and is massively critical of other Democratic presidential hopefuls.

Following the 2013 Boston Marathon Bombing, Sirota wrote, “regardless of your particular party affiliation, if you care about everything from stopping war to reducing the defense budget to protecting civil liberties to passing immigration reform, you should hope the bomber was a white domestic terrorist. Why? Because only in that case will privilege work to prevent the Boston attack from potentially undermining progress on those other issues.”

Sirota also asserted that “if the bomber ends up being a white anti-government extremist, white privilege will likely mean the attack is portrayed as just an isolated incident — one that has no bearing on any larger policy debates. Put another way, white privilege will work to not only insulate whites from collective blame, but also to insulate the political debate from any fallout from the attack.”

“It will probably be much different if the bomber ends up being a Muslim and/or a foreigner from the developing world. As we know from our own history, when those kind of individuals break laws in such a high-profile way, America often cites them as both proof that entire demographic groups must be targeted, and that therefore a more systemic response is warranted. At that point, it’s easy to imagine conservatives citing Boston as a reason to block immigration reform defense spending cuts and the Afghan War withdrawal and to further expand surveillance and other encroachments on civil liberties,” Sirota wrote.

He has also praised Chavez for advancing Socialism.

“Indeed, as shown by some of the most significant indicators, Chavez racked up an economic record that a legacy-obsessed American president could only dream of achieving,” Sirota wrote….

My guess is that he only has the glasses on his nose
so that his ears don’t hang in the air and he doesn’t
have to carry all the sawdust in his head with his hand.

I am for total freedom of the press and all human thoughts. But the one who
spreads hatred because he is looking for a guilty one gets to feel my hostility
and contempt. But is abhorrence of “Islamism” not also hatred and contempt?
Yes, but not against people who have fallen for this insanity, but against the
ideology on which it is based, as is also the case with Marxism and Nazism.

I don’t hate Islam, I despise it. Anybody even halfway civilized should do it. If he no longer does it, he has ceased to be civilized. He must no longer see himself as part of civilized society. This is precisely where the frontline between self-assertion and self-abandonment runs for all of us.

The apparently “tempting seductions” of all these destructive ideologies
Marxism, Nazism and Islam are apparently so powerful that many people
in the West no longer recognize any difference, but believe that following
these false “gods” would be “freedom of opinion”. They’re wrong! All three
ideologies have come to power through this fatal error of all good wills. And
we’ll do this again and again if we do not stop them. We are still a long way
from treating all three as the same as they are: ideological instruments of ter-
ror to oppress human society. Not even Nazism has finally disappeared into
oblivion where it belongs. So we are all still at the very beginning of our work.

What can you say against that? No bullshit capitalism, no national racism, no international communism, but an organic, healthy society that corresponds to life and people, that does
not pursue an ethnic occupation policy at the expense of those who have lived there for mille-nnia, but does not murder those who belong to their homeland in concentration camps either.

How can someone expect people who only learn theoretical nonsense in school,
which can be found in any Wikipedia article, instead of becoming loving and sin-
cere parents and people, to realize what is happening to their entire society?

ISLAM is an ideology (NOT A RELIGION) just like the KKK’s ideology of hatred toward the Jews and blacks. And, YES when a group’s premise and ideology includes EVIL ACTS (murders, lies, terrorism, etc), then YES we have a right to hate them, deter them, stop, them and call them what they really are: SATAN’S SPAWN.

I hate no one, BUT that does not mean I LOVE WHAT THEY DO. Therefore, those kinds of people should be stopped in any way available by the authorities. To NOT do so just means they are either AFRAID or are COWARDS. America stands for truth and justice. Without either, our Republic is no longer viable.

Hatred comes from Satan not God. Therefore, these people are influenced by demonic spirits. I THINK THAT ABOUT COVERS IT AND IS MUCH SIMPLER THAN TRYING TO EXPLAIN WHY THESE PEOPLE SAY ALL THESE EVIL THINGS ABOUT PEOPLE THEY JUST DON’T KNOW.

YOU are probably RACIST. Right?

I don’t know you, so I am ‘assuming’ you are a racist. NOW…….read this:

ASSUMPTION IS THE LOWEST FORM OF INTELLIGENCE, so if anyone claims a GROUP OR RACE OF PEOPLE ARE RACIST, then they are ASSUMING FROM A LIE.

Therefore, as a WHITE AMERICAN MALE, I know you are NOT racist BECAUSE I DO NOT KNOW YOU, until you tell me you are with words.

Just wanted to make a point to everyone who makes ANY ASSUMPTIONS ABOUT ANYTHING.

A bit simplistic, to say the least. There’s blind prejudice and informed prejudice which you employ yourself and without which you might not long survive. Islam encompasses the epitome of perverse bigotry. Therefore it’s perfectly logical and ethical to have a negative opinion of its followers.

Why? Because only in that case will privilege work to prevent the Boston attack from potentially undermining progress on those other issues.

Where to start with such twaddle? Well, to begin, should the Democrats nominate Sanders, the voters- particularly “white ones”- should be reminded that someone close to Sanders hoped that a murderer was “white”. It would be a bit politically incorrect, and would need to be handled with a deft hand (which Trump manifestly lacks), but pointing out that “whites” are not the primary source of terrorist concerns would resonate with a considerable part of the electorate. Moreover, what this cad wanted to do was to direct attention away from the serious terror-related concerns about a subset of America’s immigrant population that does indeed support terror.

I don’t know what the polling numbers were/are regarding Trump’s restriction on immigration from Moslem nations, and that might influence how expoliting this issue should be handled. Perhaps a few pointed reminders of how the prophet of Islam- a well-known pedophile- claimed he was “made victorious through terror” would be in order. Overall, I think that Republicans should make sure Democrats own the attitude of “hoping a terrorist is white”.

America’s wild SUCCESS in the world is driving the Left’s desire of coveting your “stuff” to new heights of GREED. They broke the all 9 Commandments and are going like a wild dog to get the 10th one down.

They are pulling out all the stops. Expect them to get even more DERANGED!
