Why did Obama compare Crusades to Islamic State at prayer breakfast?

It’s possible that President Obama knew his remarks at the prayer breakfast would blow some of his opponents’ stacks; it’s possible he’s surprised by the controversy. But controversy there is, manufactured or genuine

Barack Obama: A Divider, Not a Uniter

Mr. President,

We thought you were different, but you turned out to be like all the others. You promised hope and change, but we trust government even less than before. You offered a new brand of post-partisan governing, but the red states and blue states are farther apart than ever.

Washington was a mess when you arrived in January of 2009, but by breaking your promises and, frankly, our hearts, you made it worse.

You vowed to ban lobbyists from the White House only to sneak them in through loopholes.

Ventura: ‘If You Don’t Work, We Shouldn’t Have to Pay Taxes’

Former Governor slams political ‘gangs’ Dems, GOP over shutdown

Former Minnesota governor Jesse Ventura smacked down members of Congress in a CNN appearance Tuesday, saying that the two parties are nothing more than political gangs feeding off the American people.

Appearing on Piers Morgan’s show, Ventura declared that Democrats and Republicans have essentially “legalized bribery” in the American legislature, and that the only way to fix the system would be to elect independents to office.

Commenting on the government shutdown, Ventura said “That should mean we shouldn’t have to pay any taxes, right?”

“I think it’s time for a revolt in this country. I’ve been advocating a revolution for years now.” Ventura said, adding “revolutions don’t have to be violent, but we need one, and I would tell everyone here, vote them all out of office and don’t vote in a new Democrat or Republican, vote for anyone BUT Democrats and Republicans.”

Iran’s Hassan Rouhani calls the Holocaust ‘reprehensible’

Commentary By: Gordon King

What the new President Hassan Rouhani of Iran is saying in this article is a “crock”.  He says that what the Nazis did to the Jews and non-Jews is reprehensible and condemnable.   He goes on to say: “Whatever crimes they committed against the Jews, we condemn. The taking of human life is contemptible: it makes no difference whether that life is a Jewish life, Christian or Muslim. For us, it is the same. The taking of human life is something our religion rejects.”  

What?!  Something that their religion rejects!  Are you kidding me?!  It is exactly what their religion promotes and encourages.  As a matter of fact, the Quran commands the followers of Muhammad (Islam) to kill, torture and maim anyone (especially Jews and Christians) who disbelieves in Allah (including other Muslims who are not following these commands).

Islam is the religion of killing, murdering, death, torture, crime, violence, sodomy, pedophilia, lust, evil, hate, chaos, war, jihad, disrespect, lying, cheating and stealing.  If you compare Islam to Satan, they almost seem like they are one and the same.  What does it take for the world to wake up from their sleep and to see the truth?

Let us not forget what Jesus told us: 

Matthew 7:15    You Will Know Them by Their Fruits

15 “Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves.”

Iran's President Rouhani addresses the 68th United Nations General Assembly in New York

Iran’s new president denounced Nazi crimes “against the Jews” yesterday and offered “peace and friendship” to Americans as he sought to recast his country’s image.

SOURCE

 Hassan Rouhani’s charm offensive at the United Nations General Assembly in New York continued with a CNN interview designed to bury the impression created by his predecessor, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, who described the Holocaust as a “myth”.

Mr Rouhani could not bring himself explicitly to acknowledge the historical truth of the deaths of six million Jews. “I am not a historian,” he said. “When it comes to speaking of the dimensions of the Holocaust, it is the historians that should reflect on it.”

He added: “But in general I can tell you that any crime that happens in history against humanity, including the crime the Nazis committed towards the Jews, as well as non-Jewish people, is reprehensible and condemnable as far as we are concerned.”

Mr Rouhani said: “Whatever crimes they committed against the Jews, we condemn. The taking of human life is contemptible: it makes no difference whether that life is a Jewish life, Christian or Muslim. For us, it is the same. The taking of human life is something our religion rejects.”
