"On CNN, the Islamist Turkish prime minister says Israel has "surpassed what Hitler did." A CNN reporter calls Israelis "scum"; a NBC reporter tweets a scurrilous article calling U.S. Jews who join the IDF "America's Israeli jihadists"; and a writer for Gawker says it's time to send the Jews back to Germany. Reporters once embedded with military forces. Now the talking points of a military force‚ the talking points of Hamas‚ are embedded in the U.S. media."
"As soon as you talk about Israel, it crystallizes all passions, with up to 20,000 or 30,000 comments sometimes after an article, of which we will only let 5% to 10% through," explained David Corchia, head of an online moderation company of which both Le Figaro and Liberation (French news publications) are clients. "Corchia says that as an online moderator, generally 25% to 40% of comments are banned. Moderators are assigned with the task of filtering comments in accordance with France's legal system, including those that are racist, anti-Semitic or discriminatory. "Regarding the war between the Israelis and Hamas, however, Corchia notes that some 95% of online comments made by French users are removed. "There are three times as many comments than normal, all linked to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict," added Jeremie Mani, head of another moderation company Netino. "We see racist or anti-Semitic messages, very violent, that also take aim at politicians and the media, sometimes by giving journalists' contact details," he added. "This sickening content is peculiar to this conflict. The war in Syria does not trigger these kinds of comments. "His last comment is particularly significant; as reports come in that 270 Syrians were killed in a massacre at the hands of ISIS, there is little heard around the rest of the world. Where are the rallies and demonstrations? The boycotts? The condemnations?"The anti-Israel protest is Barack Obama's Arab Spring come to nightmare life on the streets. "The Arab Spring is a revolutionary wave of demonstrations and protests (both non-violent and violent) riots and civil wars in the Arab world that began on Dec. 18, 2010". (Wikipedia) Proof of Obama's links to the anti-Semitic mobs come with his documented association to the anti-Semitic Code Pink, an anti-war organization that both participated in the Gaza flotillas and whose radical members offered themselves as "human shields" to a declining Hamas. Code Pink co-founder Jodie Evans, an Obama bundler, was personally thanked by Obama at the White House on January 8, 2010, days after Code Pink's Hamas trip. (Breitbart) Hamas doesn't just depend on their own terrorists in the tunnels they built to attack Israel in the Gaza strip. They depend on the oxygen of the propaganda war being waged in cities around the world. The men and women hiding behind the masks throwing rocks at police are professors, their students, the malcontents who long have been been part of the anti-war, anti-establishment, anti-capitalist pig crowd ready to join the mobs wherever they gather in any country. Protected by the anonymity of a balaclava or keffiyeh head gear, you can be as raucous and as anarchist as you choose with no worries of missile strikes. The face of the street protester has changed over time. First came the hippies of the '60s, now government bigwigs, represented by dozens of unelected czars in the Barack Obama administration. The mainstream media didn't seem to notice when the radical environmentalists swapped signs with the anti-war protesters. The demonstrations and protests of the Arab Spring that began on Dec. 18, 2010, were followed by those of Occupy Wall Street, which went into action on Sept. 17, 2011. By the time Occupy Wall Street took to public parks, the quintessential protester had only become scruffier, lazier and more willing to occupy city parks for free stuff. The face masks of the Arab Spring revolutionaries and the Occupy Wall Street are the same, but they now sport the keffiyeh in massive anti-Israel protests worldwide. It is becoming more clear on a daily basis that Obama wants the same legacy for Israel as he is leaving for America.
