Updated: Obama’s & Abdullah’s Plans for Israel

Barack Obama, Education, Islam, Israel, Palestinian Authority, South-Africa

The excerpt is from my new WorldNetDaily.com column, “Obama’s & Abdullah’s Plans for Israel:

“Barack Obama has decided to revive a plot the Saudi Crown Prince hatched in 2002. Abdullah bin Abdulaziz had suggested Israel beat a retreat to the pre-1967 borders, in return for the recognition, whatever that means, of the Arab world.” …

“For its concessions, the Arab League will doff a collective kafia to Israel. As will Israel be given ‘an effective veto’ on the national suicide pact known as the right of return—the imperative to absorb millions of self-styled Palestinian ‘refugees’ into Israel proper. …”

“There is nothing Solomonic about splitting up Jerusalem, which was sacred to Jews for nearly two thousand years before Muhammad, and is not once mentioned in the Koran.
Did Gaza not set a sufficiently strong precedent against such folly? It was “returned” to the Palestinians, who promptly destroyed the hothouses Israelis had built there, and planted Qassam rocket launchers in the ground instead. Gaza now hothouses Hamasniks.”

“(On the general wisdom of handing over territory—any territory—to voracious, vicious majorities, consider South Africa and its capital, Pretoria. Renamed Tshwane, Pretoria is now occupied by Saint Nelson Mandela’s syndicate, the African National Congress. The difference is that more people worry about the Holy City going to hell in a hand cart than care about the decay of Pretoria.)”

Update: The Sunday Times is a British newspaper. The item about Obama agitating for Israel’s return to the 1967 borders originated in the Times. Has this been reported in the US press? Recall, the first time we learned about George Hussein Onyango Obama, the president elect’s half-starving, half-brother, was from the British press. Is this the case with resepct to Obama’s direction with Israel? If the American press intends to abrogate its responsibility to report about this man, much as the same media neglected to report the truth about the invasion of Iraq—scouring the foreign news media will become a must.

On the topic of minimizing iffy news about the media’s Messiah; did you know Malia and what’shername—Obama’s other precious progeny—will be attending a private school at the cost of 30 grand a pop, per year. “Mayor Adrian M. Fenty of Washington strongly lobbied the Obamas to consider a public school, but that was apparently never an option,” reports the NYT. A man of the people is our Prince. What’s good for average Joe’s goose is clearly no good for Obama’s gander.

Why Weep For Joy?

Barack Obama, Elections 2008, Race, South-Africa

Would I weep for Joy if a Jew were elected president of the US? No (especially given my tribe’s leftist penchant). But Colin Powell, Oprah Winfrey (who catapulted Obama from anonymity), and Jessie Jackson wept for Obama’s triumph. Caught in a drama of their own making.

Now, if Americans were as good at driving a bargain as they were at coming out in droves for Obama, they’d insist that the media and their minders in Washington quit smearing them as racists. Quit talking about how those rednecks have come along way; talk about a people who do not judge a man by the color of his skin.

As some of us have always contended, Anglo-Americans are no racists.

If anything, American minorities are more deserving of the pejorative since most stated quite openly that they voted for Obama because they perceived his run as a triumph for their side. But of course, as one petty government official once wrote:

“In the United States, at present, only whites can be racists since whites dominate and control the institutions that create and enforce American cultural norms and values. … All white individuals in our society are racist, even those who have no conscious prejudice because they receive benefits distributed by a white, racist society thoughts institutions.” (Frederick Lynch, 1989)

Don’t expect the charge to be dropped when the founding people of America no longer control its institutions. As is evident from South Africa, if white, one can be among a disenfranchised minority, yet still be considered racist.

Update II: Afrikaner Special Task Force In Action in Africa

Africa, Crime, Military, South-Africa

Afrikaner Special Task Force in action in South Africa, doing what kept the place a civilized society until … recently. Not for the fainthearted.

Update I (November 3): I am somewhat surprised, like Alex, that this unit is allowed to operate in the new South Africa given the unit’s ethnic composition. The ANC is disbanding other Afrikaner-dominated paramilitary units, such as the Commandos.

Note how these (fine) young men revert to speaking Afrikaans when things heat up. Can anyone translate for us?

Update II (November 5): Read JP Strauss’ translation (hereunder) of the exchange before and during the assault. Thanks, Mr. Strauss.

The NYT’s Half-Truths & Wholesale Lies About South Africa

My VDARE.COM column is up. Here’s an excerpt from the column, which I had titled “The NYT’s Half-Truths & Wholesale Lies About South Africa”:

“Fourteen years and approximately 300,000 murders after black rule devastated my homeland, the New York Times is shocked to discover that South Africa is fast disappearing down the same hole into which Rhodesia, rest in peace, was dropped. [Post-Apartheid South Africa has entered an Anxious Era, by Barry Bearak, October 5, 2008)

I guess some latitude is in order. It took decades and piles of dead bodies before Robert Mugabe lost luster in the eyes of the American MainStream Media [MSM]. By the time the megalomaniac Mugabe was conferred with honorary doctorates (1984 and 1986) and a knighthood (1994), he had already done his “best” work: slaughter an estimated 20,000 innocent Ndebele in Matabeleland (1983), with whose leader, Joshua Nkomo, he refused to share power.

Western conventional wisdom was, well, no wiser.”
