Obama decided to give a Presidential Freedom of medal award to the racist and anti Israel former President of Ireland: "AIPAC is deeply disappointed by the Obama administration's choice to award a Presidential Medal of Freedom to Mary Robinson," the group said in its statement. "AIPAC respectfully calls on the administration to firmly, fully and publicly repudiate her views on Israel and her long public record of hostility and one-sided bias against the Jewish state."
"The Anti-Defamation League also condemned Robinson's medal, saying "she is not an 'agent of change' and is undeserving of America's highest civilian honor."
"She issued distorted and detrimental reports on the conditions in the West Bank and Gaza Strip and blamed Israel for the outbreak of Palestinian violence – the Second Intifada," ADL director Abraham H. Foxman said in a statement. "As the convener of the 2001 U.N. World Conference Against Racism in Durban, South Africa, she allowed the process to be hijacked to promote the delegitimizing of Israel and pronouncements of hateful anti-Jewish canards, such as 'Zionism is racism.' She failed miserably in her leadership role, opting to join the anti-Israel forces rather than temper them."
"She continues to bring attention to international issues as Honorary President of Oxfam International, and Chairs the Board of Global Alliance for Vaccines and Immunizations (GAVI Alliance)," the White House said in the award announcement. "Since 2002 she has been President of Realizing Rights: The Ethical Globalization Initiative, based in New York, which is an organization she founded to make human rights the compass which charts a course for globalization that is fair, just and benefits all." This last part just sounds nice.
Nothing new here, we already know who this guy is--it is as bright as the sun. One day these seduced people will wake up and see him for who he is.
They use equality and other things as a smoke screen to do what they want. Too many people don't think about what they hear. Ex, we want to help the poor but they hurt them. We want equality but they promote inequality.
ReplyDeleteIt is amazing who this man associates himself with and puts in positions of power: Alinsky, Wright, Carol Browner, Van Jones, John Holdren, and etc. If he does not agree with a lot of what these people believe, why does he surround himself with them?
