THE BELOW (RIGHT-JUSTIFIED) IS TAKEN FROM FOXNEWS.COM:

'''...President Obama on Tuesday, in an interview with Arabic television, called for more dialogue with Iran to express difference and see "where there are potential avenues for progress."

"...Without mentioning President Barack Obama by name, Ahmadinejad Wednesday repeatedly referred to those who want to bring "change," a word used often in Obama's election campaign, and indicated that Iran would be looking to see if there would be substantive differences in U.S. policy..."

The Americans who have suffered at the hands of the Middle East (and its Moslem societies) are not a prejudice of any kind.  They were hurt terribly, if they were not killed, but to our current administration that does not mean a thing, apparently.  Our President spoke of "... potential avenues for progress.'  What areas of progress are there with a nation that has threatened us (and our 'allies', although under this man I wonder if they will remain as such...) with the potential of nuclear devices?  I believe there are none, as I know you do as well.

As in the last essay I wrote (and shared with so many of you), I speak once again with something that many would call a bias against the Arabs (and the Moslems).  I am a Jew.  An American Jew, but a Jew nonetheless, and that is not something that the Moslems of the Middle East are willing to accept.  Jews anywhere are an abomination... even if most of those in the United States are heartless, gutless fools who will never stand their ground against the peoples of the Middle East.

THE BELOW (RIGHT-JUSTIFIED) IS TAKEN FROM FOXNEWS.COM:

"...The Holocaust is a concept coming from a big lie in order to settle a rootless regime in the heart of the Islamic world," Gholam Hossein Elham told a conference on Gaza in central Iran's religious city of Qom..."

"...In September last year a group of Iranian Islamist students unveiled a book mocking the Holocaust and filled with anti-Semitic stereotypes and revisionist arguments.

The United Nations designated January 27 as international Holocaust memorial day in 2005, marking the date Soviet troops liberated the largest Nazi death camp, Auschwitz-Birkenau, in Poland..."

Perhaps my sarcasm is unfair.  Frankly, I really don't care either way, though.  The U.N. has turned in to a bunch of anti-Semetic (and often politically liberal) idiots who are so busy wagging their fingers at Israel for defending itself that they ignore what is happening in the rest of the Middle East.  Making a 'Holocaust memorial day', international or otherwise, is a token gesture on their part, and it was likely done just so they could say, "... See!  We support the Jews!  We stand behind them and we mourn their loss!..."

What a joke.  If I could laugh at how pathetic and hollow they (and their gestures) are, I would... but I can't.

Sometimes, when I wake up in the morning, I find myself wondering if the news isn't going to tell me that Israel isn't there anymore, or that the Israelis have finally dealt with the Arabs, and that the United States has turned their back on the home of the Jewish people.  Under the man we are now calling our President, with his desire to appease the Iranians, it really would not surprise me.

I said to my father once that depending on what happened with our new President, that I would be making ready to exercise the 'Right of Return' (given to all Jews by our ancestry) and leave the United States for Israel.  When asked why (I do not remember if it was by Dad or someone else), I gave the answer I would give if asked now:  Because I would rather be where I know who my enemies are, and I can face them head-on, rather than having to wait for them.

9/11 was, when it happened, to the people of the United States, a very important matter.  Men like Barack Obama supported our stance on it primarily because they were standing with the desires of the people of our nation (Jewish and otherwise) to have 'revenge' on the al-Quaeda.  As long as 'patriotism' was the 'in-word', the Liberals were happy to stand by it.  Now, however, it has fallen from the light, and it is no longer useful in their efforts, so they have thrown it away like so much paper, useless now, but ready to be recycled when they have need for its benefits again.

The (Reform) Jews were the same thing, for Barack Obama.  Something to be used, then placed on the pile to be reused when once again needed.  I would say, though, that he has shown his true feelings toward the Jews in the United States of America in his behavior toward the Iranians.  The Iranians support the desires of Hamas, including the complete obliteration of Israel and the Jews.  Many Jews in this country still do not understand that, however... they are thinking in a way that the German Jews did before the Nazis came for them, except in this case, it goes more like this:

'We are ...good Americans first, good Obama supporters first... the fact that we are Jews doesn't matter as long as we stand with him.'

I would say that they are forgetting something very important, though.  Something well put in a statement made by a (liberal) politician some time back.  He said he was "...a Democrat first, an American second, and a Jew third..."

It is reported that Henry Kissinger once made a similar statement to Golda Meir (Israeli Prime Minster from 1969 to 1974). Her response was to say to him, “Henry, unfortunately, the people we deal with from read right to left.”

As to the aforementioned politician, my Father wrote a statement to him in an e-mail I find it appropriate to repeat (here):

  "When they come for you, Sir, you'll be a Jew first."
