Krauthammer:“Political correctness is not just a moral abomination, it’s a danger” »
Posted By pc25 3 weeks, 2 days ago in Political OpinionObama: “There are going to be instances in which an individual cracks”.
During his interview with Jake Tapper, this morning, Obama weakly tried to promote the theory that Fort Hood Jihadi, Nidal Hasan might have been suffering from a stress related disorder:
Well, look, we — we have seen, in the past, rampages of this sort. And in a country of 300 million people, there are going to be acts of violence that are inexplicable.

From what is being revealed now, Hasan has stepped over the proper conduct line several times, yet nothing was done. He received a poor evaluation, yet he was fast tracked to the position of Major. The whole thing stinks to high heaven.

Actually the biggest dangers to America are corruption and zionist traitor fifth columns. We will see lots of israel-firsters trying to distract us with "hatred of moslems" in threads like this one. An ultra-zionist israel-first psychologist from Brooklyn like Krauthammer (who was neither born nor educated in the US) is a good of the zionist "fifth column" trying to distract us from their crimes against humanity and their parasitism on our country.

Rulers and Ruled in the US Empire: Bankers, Zionists, Militants
http://www.propeller.com/story/2009/11/10/rulers-a...
The financial ruling class is internally stratified into three sub-groups: at the top are big private equity bankers and hedge-fund managers, followed by the Wall Street chief executives, who in turn are above the next rung of senior associates or vice-presidents of big private equity funds who are followed by their counterparts at Wall Street's public equity funds. Top hedge fund managers and executive have made $1 billion dollars or more a year-several times what the CEOs make at publicly traded investment houses. For example in 2006 Lloyd Blankfein, CEO of Goldman Sachs....
.... Within the financial ruling class, political leadership does not usually come from the richest hedge fund speculators, even less from among the junior bankers. Political leaders come from the public and private equity banks, namely Wall Street-especially Goldman Sachs, Blackstone, the Carlyle Group and others. They organize and fund both major parties and their electoral campaigns. They pressure, negotiate and draw up the most comprehensive and favorable legislation on global strategies (liberalization and deregulation) and sectoral policies (reductions in taxes, government pressure on countries like China to 'open' their financial services to foreign penetration and so on). They pressure the government to bail out bankrupt and failed speculative firms and to balance the budget by lowering social expenditures instead of raising taxes on speculative 'windfall' profits.
... The greater the salaries, bonuses, profits and rents for the financial ruling class engaged in 'restructuring' for M [mergers and acquisitions] , the greater the decline in living standards for the working and middle classes.
.... Inequality in the distribution of national income in the US is the worst in the entire developed capitalist world. Moreover studies of time series data reveal that in the US the inequality increase was far greater and intergenerational social mobility was far more difficult than in any country in Western Europe. .....

There was a national rush to therapy. Hasan was a loner who had trouble finding a wife and socializing with his neighbors.
This response was understandable. It’s important to tamp down vengeful hatreds in moments of passion. But it was also patronizing. Public commentators assumed the air of kindergarten teachers who had to protect their children from thinking certain impermissible and intolerant thoughts. If public commentary wasn’t carefully policed, the assumption seemed to be, then the great mass of unwashed yahoos in Middle America would go off on a racist rampage.
Worse, it absolved Hasan — before the real evidence was in — of his responsibility. He didn’t have the choice to be lonely or unhappy. But he did have a choice over what story to build out of those circumstances. And evidence is now mounting to suggest he chose the extremist War on Islam narrative that so often leads to murderous results.
The conversation in the first few days after the massacre was well intentioned, but it suggested a willful flight from reality. It ignored the fact that the war narrative of the struggle against Islam is the central feature of American foreign policy. It ignored the fact that this narrative can be embraced by a self-radicalizing individual in the U.S. as much as by groups in Tehran, Gaza or Kandahar.-

Well if we are gong to talk about murderous results from "sects", we ought to start with the biggest problems and the biggest murderers. The world's biggest refugee problem are the seven million christians and moslems that have been robbed, killed, expelled or put in concentration camps by racist zionist totalitarians.
Time for Americans to start paying attention to real jews rather than ultra-zionist hate-mongers like Krauthammer. Like this Israeli jew.
The Pathology of Evil - Netanyahu’s UN Speech
http://www.propeller.com/story/2009/09/30/the-path...
Israeli PM Netanyahu’s speech at the UN is a major insight into the Israeli’s mentality, psyche and logic. In his speech Netanyahu, a prolific and charismatic speaker, gives air to his genocidal inclinations, he brings to light the Israeli supremacy but he also allows us to detect some shaky and vulnerable spots at the heart of the Jewish national narrative. Reading Netanyahu’s speech makes it very clear that both the Zionist Shoa and the ‘promised land’ narratives are on the verge of collapse.
Israelis love their Shoa, for the Shoa is no doubt their best selling Hasbara (propaganda) product. It somehow allows them to kill en masse and to do it indistinguishably while insisting that it is they who happen to be the victims.
“I went to a villa in a suburb of Berlin called Wannsee.” Said Netanyahu. “There, on January 20,1942, after a hearty meal, senior Nazi officials met and decided how to exterminate the Jewish people.”
PM Netanyahu, if you are genuinely interested in ‘extermination plans’ you do not have to travel to Wannsee, Berlin. All you have to do is visit your IDF’s headquarters in Tel Aviv. Your chief commanders will guide you through their IDF ‘solutions’ for the Palestinians. At the end of the day, it is your army that surrounds Palestinians with barbed-wire, it is you who keep civilian populations in a siege with inadequate food supplies and medicine. It is your army that poured WMD over the most densely populated neighbourhoods on this planet. While the real meaning of the ‘Nazi Final Solution’ (Die Endlösung) is still discussed by historians who fail to agree between themselves what it really meant, the true reality of the Israeli murderous solution has been seen by us all.
... PM Netanyahu, may I suggest to you that not a single human cares about the exact numbers: whether it was one or four millions Jews who died in Auschwitz, no one doubts that the camp was a horrible place. Yet, two questions must be answered once and for all: how is it that the Jews, who suffered so much during that war, managed to get themselves involved in a colossal racist crime against the Palestinians (1948 Nakba) just three years after the liberation of Auschwitz? How is it that the Israeli leadership, that happens to be so sensitive to Jewish suffering, manages to neglect the pain they inflict on millions of Palestinians? -

However, for once I agree with Netanyhau: “The greatest threat facing the world today”, he says, “is the marriage between religious fanaticism and the weapons of mass destruction.”
Reply
In fact, no one could describe the danger posed by the Jewish state and Zionism any better. Israel is indeed a deadly marriage between Old Testament gross genocidal barbarism, Zionist fanaticism and a huge arsenal of WMD, chemical, biological and nuclear that has already been partially put into action.
Sabbath Goyim
Like other Zionist operations around the world, Netanyahu is convinced that the Goyim should fight the Jewish wars. ...
.... By now, the Israeli PM is ready to state his Judeo centric peace mantra. “Ladies and Gentlemen, all of Israel wants peace”. Yet as far as statistics are concerned, we have recently learned that 94% of the Israeli Jews also approved the carpet bombardment of their next door neighbours. It is impossible not to see a clear discrepancy between the ‘peace loving’ verbalism and the murderous reality.
“We ask the Palestinians to finally do what they have refused to do for 62 years: Say yes
to a Jewish state.” Once again, I happen to agree with PM Netanyahu. The Palestinian may as well say YES to a Jewish state, but not in Palestine or in the Middle East. If Obama, Brown, Merkel or any other deluded world leader who is still insisting to approve the validity or necessity of a racially orientated ‘Jewish national homeland’, he or she is more than welcome to allocate land to such a project within his or her own territory. Palestinians should say NO to a Jewish state in the Holy Land or in the region. Palestinians should never agree to the existence of a Jewish state on their land. In fact the UN must follow this line and do whatever it can to dismantle this evil apartheid regime.
PM Netanyahu, I will make it plain and clear. Not only are you foreign to the land, you are also foreign to almost every possible understanding of the notion of humanity. In fact, the Separation Wall that is going to be left after the inevitable disappearance of your ‘Jew only democracy’ will serve generations to come with an astonishing historical monument of Jewish national identity estranged from ethics, universalism and human brotherhood. The crime against humanity committed by the Jewish state in the name of the Jewish people is not something that will be wiped out from the history text books in a short time. Quite the opposite; it will stand as another mythological chapter in this never-ending saga of supremacist compulsive pathological self-loving. -

Funny. I heard a retired Three-Star General say that PTSD (Pre/not post) could have very well played a role in this murder spree.
Do you know better than a three star general? I mean we all know you haven't served (except perhaps serving yourself a big bottle of pop in your bark-o-lounger).. So you know better than a three star general? -

Suicide By PC
War On Terror: The No. 1 lesson of the Fort Hood massacre is that political correctness kills. But instead of learning this lesson, the Pentagon is repeating the mistake, putting more soldiers at risk.
Just a few months ago, Hasan was promoted to major. He passed a security clearance despite evidence he openly engaged in anti-American rants, and even discussed cutting the throats of infidels during a PowerPoint presentation. Now there are reports that U.S. intelligence intercepted contacts between Hasan and al-Qaida.
But shhh! This isn't about Islam. Close your eyes. Look the other way. Do not make the connection.
"It would be an even greater tragedy if our diversity becomes a casualty here," Casey said on Sunday's morning shows. Really? Tell that to the victims of the Muslim terrorist who shouted "Allahu Akbar!" before pumping fellow soldiers full of bullets at close range. Tell it to their grieving families.
Diversity is a good thing only if Muslims embrace the military's mission. Of course many do, but a growing number object to fighting Muslims abroad. By our count, at least a dozen Muslims in uniform have been charged or convicted of terror or spying since 9/11, including Hasan. That's a sectarian pattern, not a random act by a lone gunman, as the media have portrayed it.-

What a precious, wonderful gift we were given by our ancestors!
Reply
It was not achieved by trying to steal from neighboring nations, it was accomplished by hard work, very hard work, and building instead of destroying!
And now, we have the ones who over the last couple of centuries did not try to better themselves but attack their neighbors and now the US because of what was so hard earned. Goes back to the old proverb about the grasshopper and the ant .
Now there seems to be that even within our own borders we have managed to bring in our enemies, the same ones who are literally willing to die to be here. The same ones who covet what have earned are trying to destroy us!
Now we have some of our own citizens willing to do everything possible to destroy this wonderful gift we have been given. We are dangerously close to being too late to save us from the final flush.
Many will wake up in the next 5 months, if not by next July it may be too late, what a catastrophic waste! Being sorry then will not help.
We have been sold out. Please, please all you wafflers, we can still stop it, but time is quickly running out.
If not , fasten your seat belts, life, as you know it, will end. Please do not wait until it is too late!
Sigh, thanks PC for your preservance... -

Commentary by Krauthammer as posted by pc25...Can an article be more discredited just by existing?
Reply
Oh pc25...I see you ran away from another thread when challenged to back up your claim that Obama was a "crack head pusher". Have you grown stones enough yet to back up your claim?
Please note that I am asking this rather early into this thread to see how fast you turn and run again from your own words. -

Nidal Hasan is a man with ties to muslim extremists and logically was influenced by them to commit these acts. Did anyone question Timothy Mcveighs extremist motivations? He also could have suffered from PTTS having served combat duty in the first gulf war. Being politically correct is simply a form of doublethink in which one ignores the truth to make oneself appear socially acceptable.

Insofar as the whole concept of "Political Correctness"...it is a chimera dragged out by the fearful every time they get scared. The story repeats itself over and again. It is a tactic used mostly by the fearful "right", afraid of any change in this world and dreaming of a fantasy world that never existed which they can return to. The concept is used as well by the 'left' (though less effectively because, well, the 'left' lacks the feral fear of the 'right').
Reply
What is 'political correctness'? It is nothing. Those who decry it, this ghost of a concept, actually are doing naught but decrying the very concepts of LIBERTY AND JUSTICE FOR ALL which they pretend to so ardently adhere to.
Charles Krauthammer is, at best, a shill. This is one individual who has been wrong on so many occasions, had egg on his face so many times now, has been caught, pants down, trying to rape the freedoms od this land for ideological purposes, that any commentary wherein he attacks an non-existent boogey-man should, rather than celebrated like the partisan liar who posted this article (please see his Obama is a "crack head pusher" comments), just be ignored. Krauthammer has no integrity. -

Actually Donna is the Queen Moron. She types the same phrase to everyone, when she's not gloating when someone on the right here gets hit by a hurricane, as she did to me two summers ago. There are few if any nastier people on this site than our beloved Donna.
