Former occupant of the Oval Office Barack Obama tried to make a case that everyone is complicit for the violence by Hamas because of allowing the “occupation” by Israel. Obama, continuing to stir the pot of leftism with his former staffers on “Pod Save America” November 3, said, “If there’s any chance of us being able to act constructively, to do something, it will require an admission of complexity. And maintaining, what on the surface may seem contradictory ideas — that what Hamas did was horrific, and there’s no justification for it; and what is also true is that the occupation [sic] and what’s happening to Palestinians is unbearable.” Apparently, Obama couldn’t resist lecturing America once again against Israel.
Let’s be clear: There is no moral equivalency in what Hamas did to Israel. Anyone with any sense can see that raping, torturing, dismembering, ripping babies from the womb, killing kids in front of parents and then killing the parents cannot be justified in any case. Nor can it be used as justification for some phantom “occupation” by a clearly establish nation that is often attacked from all sides. Let’s also be clear: There is no Israeli “occupation” in Gaza. Gaza was the first experiment forced by President George W Bush and Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon that the “Palestinians” could live side by side in peace with Israel. Israelis left Gaza under gunfire and missiles and it hasn’t stopped since September 2005. This is not about poor oppressed “Palestinians.” It’s about hatred for Israel and the extinction of Jews.
Let’s also recall how Obama instigated the overthrow of stable governments across the Middle East in favor of terrorist-sympathizers—all in the name of democracy. December 2011 found the first fruits of Obama’s Arab Spring in Egypt were an astounding victory for the Muslim Brotherhood, Obama’s terrorist-sponsoring, Sharia-promoting foreign policy partner. The initial count showed the Muslim Brotherhood taking 45% of the seats in Egypt’s parliament and the even more radical Salafist Muslims taking another 20%. The Washington Post reported that “Tunisia and Morocco have both elected Islamist majorities to parliament, while Libya has yet to announce dates for its first elections, Islamist groups have emerged as a strong force there…they also play a strong opposition role in Yemen.”
In short, Obama engineered a radical Islamic takeover of much of the Middle East in league with terrorists. Obama aided and abetted the Muslim Brotherhood, al Qaeda, Hamas, and other terrorist organizations. They swore to create a “civilization jihad” in the US and to drive Israel into the sea. On November 25, 2011, for example, Ynet News reported speakers at a Muslim Brotherhood rally of 5,000 people in Cairo often repeated “one day we’ll kill all the Jews,” calling them “treacherous,” vowing “jihad for the sake of Palestine.” Christ said in Matthew 7:15-16 said, “Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. You shall know them by their fruits.” For Obama to lecture us about moral equivalency between terrorism and Israeli occupation of its own land is, say it with me, Stupidocrisy.
