Saban: Obama is Best for Israel

The Truth About Obama and Israel, by Haim Saban, NYTimes.com:

AS an Israeli-American who cares deeply about the survival of Israel and the future of the Jewish people, I will be voting for President Obama in November. Here’s why.

Blah, blah, Israeli-firster rationale omitted.

When I enter the voting booth, I’m going to ask myself, what do I prefer for Israel and its relationship with the United States: meaningful action or empty rhetoric? To me the answer is clear: I’ll take another four years of Mr. Obama’s steadfast support over Mr. Romney’s sweet nothings.

Haim Saban is a private equity investor, the chairman of the Spanish-language media company Univision and a founder of the Saban Center for Middle East Policy at the Brookings Institution.

What's best for America and Americans? "Israeli-American" Haim Saban and the New York Times don't even pretend to care.

At Democratic convention, a focus on Jewish swing voters as key to election win:

At the session, Jewish public officials such as Delaware Gov. Jack Markell and U.S. Rep. Jan Schakowsky (D-Ill.) shouted out the party’s new Jewish tagline: “I’m here because I’m a Jew and I support the president and I support Israel.”

. . .

Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-Fla.), the DNC chairwoman and the party’s highest-ranking Jewish member, said Republicans hammer on the Israel issue because the Republican Party has little common ground with Jewish voters on domestic policy.

“The natural political home for Jewish voters in this country is with the Democratic Party,” she said.


The JTA article disingenuously focuses on jewish votes. In contrast, this HuffPo/AP article, Obama, Romney Court Jewish Vote, notes the real reason is jewish money and lobbying:

For all the wooing of American Jews in presidential campaigns, those who say Israel's fate drives their vote make up 6 percent of a reliably Democratic bloc. The tiny numbers are overlaid with an outsize influence. Campaign donations from Jews or Jewish and pro-Israel groups account for as much as 60 percent of Democratic money, and groups such as the American Israel Public Affairs Committee can bring strong pressure on candidates.

From Phil Klein at the Washington Examiner: DNC chairs says Israeli Ambassador called GOP “dangerous for Israel”:

Wasserman Schultz went on to elaborate that Republicans were “undermining Israel’s security by suggesting that the United States and Israel don’t have anything other than a unique and close and special relationship. It undermines Israel’s security to its neighbors in the Arab world and to its enemies. And we need to make sure that the fact that there has never been and will never be daylight between the two parties or the support for Israel that we have in the United States, that that is conveyed to Jewish Americans across this country. That’s our responsibility. It’s the responsibility we’re asking all of you to take on.”

Jews have long undermined US security by equating it, and even subordinating it, to Israel's security. Through money and lobbying jews have created a "unique and close and special relationship" with both major political parties, effectively dominating them and dictating their policies, foreign and domestic.

The result is that one party proclaims itself the "jew party" while faulting the other for being the "White party", while the supposed "White party" tries all the harder to be the better "jew party". Both parties act as if pandering to jews is an unquestionable good while pandering to Whites would be unthinkably bad.

Judeo-democracy in action:

A big flip flop by the Democratic Party has replaced what was perceived as a big snub to Israel.

It was a stunning development. The party had dropped the assertion that Jerusalem was the capital of the Jewish state, but on Wednesday evening the Democrats had a change of heart. The vote went down just before 6 p.m. and it was quite contentious on the floor. It needed a two-thirds majority and it took three votes to get it, CBS 2’s Marcia Kramer reported.

And even after the vote, many thought the crowd of delegates on the floor was split 50-50, rather than delivering the two-thirds majority needed.

The Democrats caved, changing the platform language to reflect that they now regard Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. It came about as a result of intense political pressure,” CBS 2’s Kramer reported.

Very succinct description, Tan. You're really good at getting to the essence and making it clear to others.

Thanks Carolyn.

Mary posted a link to DNC County Chairman: Christians Want Jewish People to Die at tWn. The self-righteous jew in the video is Mark Alan Siegel, Palm Beach County Democrat Chairman. More here.

Considered together with the "political pressure" behind the DNC flip-flop on Jerusalem, it is clear that the politcal calculus in the US is dominated by jews, of all parties, whether more or less in support of Israel. This stands in contradistinction to Whites, including even the most rabid Christian supporters of jewish nationalism, who are generally regarded as good and right to fear and loath.

While jews argue ever more openly with each other about what's best for jews, I'm wondering how long Whites, Christian or not, will stand by, paralyzed by a poisonous kind of jew-inflicted Stockholm syndrome, and what we can do to help break that paralysis.

This NYT article is pretty strange if you think about it. It's pretty blatant, and it's hard to imagine that it really makes much of a difference one way or another who wins the election as far as Israel is concerned.

It seems like the jews are doing a bit of a 180 in terms of how they're presenting themselves in the media: instead of trying to pretend to be powerless victims, they're now flaunting their power and hoping to intimidate us.

They do both, sometimes at the same time, and have been doing so for centuries. Tan has got it right that it's about how long Whites are going to stand by helplessly in the face of it. This combination they present - victim and master both - seems to have us at a loss.

We need to talk about how to break through it.

Yes, this is one of Tan's definite strengths and one that has helped me grapple with the JQ.

Ps: I guess you guys know by now that Canada has closed its Iranian embassy and called back its ambassador and supporting staff. Given Harper's jew-worship, this can't bode well for whatever things might be on the way this fall.... :(

"“The natural political home for Jewish voters in this country is with the Democratic Party,” she said."

The hypocrisy is stunning - literally stunning.

They'll quite openly call for jews to vote as an ethnic bloc while attacking White people for the same thing - or not even doing the same thing - only appearing to do so because the anti-white bloc has become so blatantly anti-white that only masochist White people or those relying on a government job could possibly stay with the Democrats - and no shame, absolutely no shame, which i think is another big factor.

"This combination they present - victim and master both - seems to have us at a loss. We need to talk about how to break through it."

There's something about the scale of their hypocrisy which is stunning. When i read something like the first quote my jaw drops slightly and i am literally stunned for a moment or two despite years of trying to get used to it.

I think their utter alien-ness is a factor. I think the way they can hold two opposite moral views at once e.g. x is good for jews so x is morally good buf if x would be good for white people also then what's good for white people is bad for jews so x is morally bad in that context so x is both morally good and bad at the same time, does something to white people.

They're not just not-white they're more like a photographic negative of white people - so alien they stun.

I don't know what can be done about it. One aspect is to realise they must believe they're the master race and everybody else is literally sub-human. It's the only way the moral algebra works.

How about hit them with this?
ASIA FOR THE ASIANS, AFRICA FOR THE AFRICANS, WHITE COUNTRIES FOR EVERYBODY!

Everybody says there is this RACE problem. Everybody says this RACE problem will be solved when the third world pours into EVERY white country and ONLY into white countries.

The Netherlands and Belgium are just as crowded as Japan or Taiwan, but nobody says Japan or Taiwan will solve this RACE problem by bringing in millions of third worlders and quote assimilating unquote with them.

Everybody says the final solution to this RACE problem is for EVERY white country and ONLY white countries to “assimilate,” i.e., intermarry, with all those non-whites.

What if I said there was this RACE problem and this RACE problem would be solved only if hundreds of millions of non-blacks were brought into EVERY black country and ONLY into black countries?

How long would it take anyone to realize I’m not talking about a RACE problem. I am talking about the final solution to the BLACK problem?

And how long would it take any sane black man to notice this and what kind of psycho black man wouldn’t object to this?

But if I tell that obvious truth about the ongoing program of genocide against my race, the white race, Liberals and respectable conservatives agree that I am a naziwhowantstokillsixmillionjews. They say they are anti-racist. What they are is anti-white. Anti-racist is a code word for anti-white

Obam was made (their own words) by the Chicago jewish establishment.

http://www.chicagojewishnews.com/story.htm?id=252218&sid=212226

One longtime Jewish observer of the political scene, who did not want to be identified, said admiringly that "Jews made him. Wherever you look, there is a Jewish presence."
