‘Daily Kos’ Blames McCain’s Team for Attack on Ohio Mosque

by on September 28, 2008 5

Dayton's newspaper reports a tear gas attack on a mosque there, affecting a lot of children. Dailykos makes the connection between the attack and the distribution of the free DVD of the anti-Muslim film "Obsession" by "McCain supporters" in swing states including Ohio. Who knows. Is Dailykos saying Ban the film? Happily, doesn't seem like anyone was injured. I'm against assault and harassment, for free speech. Though where's the free speech about the use of anti-Muslim propaganda to serve a pro-Israel agenda?

    I notice Daily Kos doesn’t make the connection between “Obsession” and its militant Jewish Zionist backers. Why, the left-liberal Democrats can’t very well risk all that Jewish campaign contribution money by actually identifying the REAL root of the problem, even when women and children are being gassed. When it comes to left-liberals and their GOP mirror image, money trumps principle every time.

    The Republican Jewish Coalition is behind this DVD.

    JewsOnFirst has the story and is actively pursuing getting hard evidence of Sheldon Adelson's financial backing of the Clarion Fund (latest mailer). if anyone has such hard evidence, email it to them.

    So Phil, let me get this straight–you find nothing wrong with that film, and with the manner in which it was distributed? Have you seen it? If you haven't already, maybe you should, to see it's all about hate and not at all about freedom of speech. By the way, do you think there should be ANY limits on freedom of speech? I am against censorship of any kind; however, that does not mean that those who abuse freedom of speech will not be attacked and put in their "right place" by us anti-racists. I was surprised to see your (non)reaction to the film. How would you have felt if there had been a film about "Radical Judaism"? It's an intellectual fallacy to equate a religion with the actions of those who claim to be religious and to be acting in the name of that religion. I found the film offensive from start to end and I am not even Muslim. I don't know how anyone could have missed the racism that it reeked of. A mere glance at the list of people who were interviewed in the "film" is enough to confirm that.
    Anyway, for a decent debunking, see the following website:

    The Republican Jewish Coalition is comprised of Jewish Zionists. It is working in conjunction with Christian Zionists. Zionism is common denominator, just like Zionism is the common denominator between the Republican Jewish Coalition and the tens of thousands of Jewish Zionists who are backing the Democrats.

    Now with that kind of confluence of interests, is it any wonder the two parties have merged on the question of wars for Zionism? And if they’ve merged on an issue as big as that, you can damn well bet they’ve merged on dozens of smaller issues as well — hence the two party regime.

    The narcissistic Left would rather focus all its rage on the straw man of the Christian Right for flouting its gay/transgender/bisexual marriage and abortion on demand agenda, and pretend the Jewish Zionist gorilla in the living room cutting deals with the GOP in the corner doesn’t exist. For the narcissistic Left, the pursuit of the institutional legitimization of deviant sex and baby sacrifice is more important than mass murder in the Mideast.

    The two parties have merged in an orgy of money worship and a culture of blood and death.

    "when women and children are being gassed."

    Sounds familiar, doesn't it?

    The Republican Party, among other objectionable things, is a cult of violence.
