Birther Joseph Farah Smears Another New Founded Czar and Argues That Israel Is Beyond Reproach

Another Bush created czar attributed to ObamaSeriously, what country is Joseph Farah loyal to - the United States or Israel. Farah attacks Hannah Rosenthal, Obama's appointment to the State Department's Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Anti-Semitism for being anti-Israel. Does Farah not understand there is a difference between being anti-Semitic and to criticize Israeli policy? Of course not, these are people who believe that if you ever criticize a Republican President you are un-American and that if you do not criticize a Democratic President you are un-American.
Before, I continue, it needs to be noted that Farah claimed that this "anti-semitism" czar is a newly created position in an attempt to mislead his readers that Obama created another czar. The truth, something alien to Farah, is that the position was created during the Bush Administration and that Rosenthal's appointment is to replace Bush Appointee Gregg Rickman. Did Farah ever claim Rickman to be a czar? Of course not.
Here is Farah's justification for claiming that Rosenthal is anti-Israel:
"I'll tell you point-blank: I have two grown daughters, and I didn't think that my kids were going to have to deal with some of the same anti-Semitism that I did as the daughter of Holocaust survivors," Rosenthal said. "It's a scary time, with people losing the ability to differentiate between a Jew, any Jew, and what's going on in Israel."
How would you interpret that statement?
Here's how I would explain it: "It's wrong to condemn Jews per se, but attacking the one and only Jewish state, home tp half the Jewish population, isolated as it might be among a world of Jew-haters, is fair game."
Get that, anytime you criticize any policy coming from the Israeli government, you are automatically anti-Semitic. So, I guess that means anytime you criticize the United States, you are automatically anti-Christian. These people are incredible. Who exactly is Farah loyal to? The United States or Israel. I cannot believe in his world, and a world shared by many "conservatives", criticism of Israeli policy is akin to anti-Semitism. I guess that makes Israel beyond reproach. But not the United States, since these people attack our government on a daily basis. They also have no problem attacking other governments. Could you imagine how ridiculous you would sound if you claim that someone is anti-French for attacking the policies of the Sarkozy government.
Farah's ridiculousness knows no bounds:
This is the president who publicly supports ethnic cleansing in the Middle East against Jews . . .
It would seem if you were sincere about fighting the worst kind of anti-Semitism in the world today you would be working for the removal of Barack Obama from office, not promoting his policies.
But Hannah Rosenthal is beguiled by Obama's demands for Israel to lay down and be carved up by those whose history of political involvement places them as the political disciples of Adolf Hitler's Nazis. . .
Now Obama has appointed an "anti-Semitism czar" who believes even Israel's most appeasement-oriented leaders were warmongers.
I admit I never expected any president to name an "anti-Semitism czar." Yet, I kind of expected that if one were ever named, the purpose would be to fight anti-Semitism, not spread it.
This is intentional on these people. They purposely conflate anti-Semitism with criticism of Israeli policy because they want to stifle all criticism of Israel. And, they are pretty successful. People are afraid to criticize Israel for fear of being labeled anti-Semitic. Hell, even Jews cannot attack Israeli policy without being considered self-loathing. We will never come to any resolution in the Middle East with this type of mentality. But, then again, people like Farah do not resolution in the area. It goes against their world view as evangelical Christians. They are waiting for Armageddon and the Rapture - and the quicker the better.
It is disgusting that these people, who are as apocolyptic as Ahmadinejad, are a prominent voice in the "conservative" movement and form an unholy alliance with the neo-cons. How many Americans must die and how much debt must we compile to fulfill this wild fantasies of these people?
