Hamas op-ed on Rev Wright's 'Pastor's Page'
Blogger Tim Blumer did the work the MSM wouldn't, and examined the back issues of the Trinity United Church of Christ's Bulletin. One issue carried on the "Pastor's Page" a pro-Hamas editorial by Mousa Abu Mazook, a high-ranking official of Hamas who has been implicated in terror attacks. He compares the Hamas Charter to the Declaration of Independence and calls for America to engage with Hamas and to pressure Israel .. The Charter of Hamas calls for the killing of Jews wherever they might live-Israel or beyond.
Of course the Obama campaign had to react to this latest revelation of scandal involving the views of his long-time "spiritual advisor" and "mentor" by issuing what has become a routine expression of outrage.
Ironically, in a separate press release, the campaign marked the holiday of Jewish Purim. The irony is because Hamas calls for the destruction of Jews everywhere, and Purim commemorates the deliverance of the Jewish people from the plot of the Persian ruler Haman's plot to annihilate them.
Then again, Barack Obama advocates outreach to Iran (modern day Persia) an engagement that will confer prestige on a regime that plans for the annihilation of the Jewish people. Haman has returned, and his name is now Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.
Happy Purim!
