31. No surprises there.....
Yaron ,   USA   (10.15.08)
Jackson has been one of the most divisive black leaders in modern-day America. His remarks about NY being Heimytown only raised his overt racism to the surface. The issue in America is not white on black racism but rather the opposite and Jackson is simply a manifestation of an affirmative action policy that has in fact reversed the tide of racism so much that now the victim is the perpetrator. Jackson should worry more about making a change in the black community in the US rather than spend time thinking about big issues with his little tiny brain.
32. Hey #12
Yaron ,   USA   (10.15.08)
Your little brain must be hurting after that brilliant revelation. The money we spend is well worth it...trust me. My question would be, what comes of the money we send to the cesspool of countries we do otherwise. I can assure you that good Israeli innovation is far outweighing the money we spend on assistance to our ONLY ally in the ME. Furthermore, can you tell me ONE war the US fought on behalf of Israel.....genious? As far as I recall, we went to war with Iraq to protect Kuwait you mental midget.
33. Any facts to back up your remarks?
Yaron ,   USA   (10.15.08)
Hope you like paying taxes retard! Obama is a disaster and is amateur at best. Your assessment of going to war for Israel is as idiotic as your choice for President. Keep writing.....the facts might be forgotten if you just lie!
34. Obama's buddies
Bernie ,   Formerly Seattle   (10.15.08)
Jesse Jackson, Reverend Wright,Calypso Louie Farrakhan, Rashid Khalidi, Khalid Al Mansour, Bill Ayer, Bernadette Dohrn, Jimmy the Dhimmi Kaker, Zbignew Brezinski,Robert Malley, Samantha Power ( who wants the US to invade Israel) Tony McPeak, Tony Rezko,Susan Lake, Saul Alinski, Alwaleed bin Talal ,etc. Every one of then a documented Jew hater You can tell a person by his friends!!!!
35. Jackson is a disgrace
Robert   (10.16.08)
Jackson is a disgrace and an anti-semite. I don't even know why the media report anything he says. As far as I can see, he has never earned an honest day's living in his life. He merely stirs up trouble by exploiting religious and racial tensions for his own financial benefit. The guy is shameless.
36. STUPID JEWISH VOTERS
Dan ,   USA   (10.16.08)
Despite what Obama cronie Jackson says, 90 percent of American Jews will vote for Obama. They are so liberal that they hate Israel or they can't stop believeing the Democrats are good for Jews and Israel. And they are wrong.

39. Jackson also said he wanted to cut Obama's nuts off...
Ethan ,   New York   (10.16.08)
He is no friend of Obama. Obama has upstaged him and stands to become what Jackson also wanted to be: the first African-American prez. Jackson has expressed his resentment and dislike of Obama multiple times during the campaign. This comment was a hit job.
40. Jackson: Jealous of Obama and Undermining
Noah ,   New York, NY   (10.16.08)
Everyone knows Jackson deliberately said this to undermine Obama and hurt his chances of being elected. It's no secret that Jackson, who unsuccessfully campaigned to be the first black president of the US, has been jealous of Obama since Day 1. Look, he recently said he wanted to cut Obama's privates off. He can't do that but he can try to cut off Obama's Jewish support. There's no way Obama, or any elected US president, will ever decrease American support for Israel. If you believe Jackson, you're either naive, or you are just against Obama to begin with.
41. I'm An American + I Know What I'm Talking About
Seth ,   Washington, DC   (10.16.08)
Jesse Jackson is a clown and opportunist and nobody takes him seriously - neither black people or white people. Jackson hates Obama for stealing his thunder and he already was caught mumbling into a live microphone that someone needs to cut off Obama's balls. To say that Jesse Jackson is in any way affiliated with Obama is a joke. I believe Jackson was trying to stir up trouble for Obama but Jackson is held in such low regard that nobody gives a flying @#@ about the comment. By the way, the election is over and Obama wins in a landslide.
42. To#15 And Rachel
PatriotUSA ,   ROregon, USA   (10.16.08)
Both of you show your stupidity and ignorance of obumma and the farrakhanista: Jackson. Over the year jackson has not hidden his racist views against the Jews at all. He always says waht he truly means and then tries to back track and cover his sorry ass. How can obumma distance himself from the disgusting rev. wright, the terrorist ayers and the rest of his "good" friends?" They are all anti- Israel and all one has to do is read between the lines and see who obumma hangs out with. jacksion has a BIG mouth and obumma is smooth talking charlatan that will turn the USA into a pool of socialist wussies, just like europistan. You do not think obumma has ties to radical islamists at some very discreet levels? He will lower the U.S.standing in world's eyes to rock bottom. Trust history that we are not even close to that yet but obumma will get us there. Sorry, I have no interest in his socialist plans or ideas.Anyone who lets moveon.org, pelosi and her scummy ilk do his thinking and speaking for him is NOT be given the office of POTUS. The demodorks have a 9% public rating since they came into power and that is even way lower that Bush's worst rating. You commie loving left wing nuts will get what you deserve should the nation be stupid enough to elect obumma and the rest of us will suffer along with you, and work to make sure the left wing nuts in the U.S. get tossed out ASAP. And you think things are bad now, ignorant fools.
43. what's best for israel
tom ,   toronto, canada   (10.16.08)
american "support" hasn't been of much use to israel. instead, america has used israel to further its own interests in the arab world, while blocking israel's development and sales of advanced weapons. both presidents bush have blocked israeli self-defence in the face of scuds and katyushas and qassams, and substituted impotent patriot batteries, fully under american command and control. and the americans will eventually block israel from destroying the iranian threat, "for fear of destabilizing the middle east". we have seen quite enough of such "friends" and their support. what we need now, for the good of israel, and in the interests of peace, is an american president who will NEGLECT the middle east, stop pressuring israel into nonsensical, unilateral "concessions", and stop shipping huge quantities of arms to all sides.
44. #34 Bernie, You Go!!!
PatriotUSA ,   Oregon, USA   (10.16.08)
Excellent and accurate post. Everyone of those you named are proven Jew Haters and anti semeites to the core. Don't forget franklin raines who was instrumental in wrecking Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac while he walked away with MILLIONS of taxpayers dollars. These are the bums obumma will appoint to into his cabinet and we can all watch the USA burn like Rome did. No Jews need these jerks around , in fact no one needs these racists around.
45. Robert...
Heather Czerniak ,   Milwaukee, WI, USA   (10.16.08)
...I believe the word is "traitor."
46. Jesse Jackson
(10.16.08)
In case anybody wonders why people like Jesse Jackson (and Rev. Wright for that matter) seem hell bent on sending Obama's candidacy into the crapper, it's because Jackson is race hustler, and if Obama wins the presidency, Jackson's attempts at extortion against major corporations, and his diatribes about America being a racist country, will begin to appear illegitimate if Americans have elected a black president. And without a "racist America" to rail against, Jesse Jackson will be out of a job. But, as much as I would like to never have to hear from Jesse Jackson again, this liberal Democrat is going to vote for McCain.
47. #34 Wow I agree to bad so many people prefer a lie.
Gr ,   USA   (10.16.08)
We are in big trouble at least we will not have the money(USA) to spend like this clown will want to.
48. #34, Excellent post Bernie.
Matt C ,   Canada   (10.16.08)
Obama sure has a LOT of friends who hate Israel. He always seems to be saying that such-and-such does not speak for him. Yet Obama never actually stops these people from getting close to him. This does not bode well.
49. 22 Gershon Hunt: Rabbi Michael Rood has an
Rivkah   (10.16.08)
interesting take on the "born again" aspect Yeshua spoke of. Yeshua said to enter the kingdom of God, one must be born again. Michael Rood believes that is referring to the resurrection body, not a mystical feeling. It is an actual rebirth into a new body that is destined for eternal salvation. His book "Mystery of Iniquity..." has some great explanations of scripture and he does not believe in the trinity of mainstream Christianity which is from Mithraism. Zechariah chapter 6:12-15 describes the Messiah rebuilding the Fourth Temple in Jerusalem since the Third Temple will be destroyed like the First and Second. The counsel of peace from the Temple the Messiah builds will be from them "BOTH". God has a son who is the Messiah. God is not a trinity which was put into the Christian doctrines by Pope Damasus who was not a Christian. He had his thugs slaughter a lot of Bishops who gathered to elect a Pope and the surviving Bishops voted for Damasus in fear. He then corrupted the religion of Yeshua with a trinity of Mithraism and the Sunday sabbath of Mithraism. There is so much "commandments of men" in mainstream Christianity, I prefer to be called Messianic Jewish instead of Christian. The pagan idols of Rome were renamed with the names of followers of Yeshua and the Mother-infant religion of Mithraism was forced on people. Mithra was born on December 25 in a cave to a virgin and died on a cross at Easter time. The Cross of Mithra religion predated Yeshua's coming as the sacrificial lamb. Emperor Constantine fought under the Cross of Mithra, not Yeshua. Jews were persecuted by the Mithra religion long before it became known as Roman Catholicism, etc. In regard to the Jews in government, there are Jews who are Jews in their hearts and there are Jews who are atheists and there are Jews who are members of the Synagogue of Satan that Yeshua warned about. Voting for Jews who are Jews in their hearts should be a goal in life. God loves the Jews who are Jews in their hearts because He sees them as Abraham's seed that inherited the birthright and the crown. Jews who are in God's camp are more blessed than other peoples of the world. But Jews who are not in God's camp are more cursed, either in this life or the next. The people who get elected to public office are put under pressures from Shadow Government figures who will destroy them by true or false accusations or kill them if they do not do what they are told to do. King David was annointed by Samuel to be king, but that alone did not make him king of Israel. He had to wait for Saul's death and then he had to make an agreement with the elders of Israel before he was given the kingship. The elders are the "Shadow Government" behind the scenes who are not always wise, who coerce elected officials into doing things they do not want to do. After the 9/11 attack on the WTC towers, President Bush got on Air Force One to fly to a command center. He was notified by someone who had access to the top secret codes who told him Air Force One would be shot down unless President Bush agreed to attack Iraq. He agreed. I believe it was Roman Catholics in our government who did that because when Pope Benedict visited Washington, D.C., the President met him at the airport which had never been done before for any official or head of State. Other heads of State have done the same unprecidented thing: greeted the Pope at an airport as he arrived. I don't know the whole story, but clearly the Pope is part of the Shadow Government of many nations.

51. 28 Brod: When I voted in an AOL.COM poll,
(10.16.08)
the next screen showed I voted for Obama when I voted for McCain. So the polls are rigged.
52. Don't turn your back on Obama
PSALMS83 ,   Selah   (10.16.08)
there already to many questions he is unwilling to be transparent on .... McCain at least will stand behind Israel ....
53. 38: You make me so happy to have a friend.
(10.16.08)
The bible says there is only one friend and that is God. That is the joy you bring to my life every now and then: God's friendship through your heart. When I feel the most down, there you are, just as your father before you lifted my soul from the depths of despair. "Athaliah" is a name that means, "afflicted by the Lord." One day, the Lord will tell me why the afflictions of my life were necessary. Naomi in the Bible was similarly saddened by life until the Lord gave her joy in her old age with Ruth and Boaz and Obed.
54. obama
ametai ,   las vegas/usa   (10.16.08)
to hell with jackson he's mad obama took his spotlight, obama is going to be the best friend israel ever had, don't believe me, then listen to the former head of the mossad, he agrees.
55. Jackson does NOT speak for Obama!
voter ,   usa   (10.16.08)
Personally, I think Jesse Jackson is a disgusting hypocrite. He fathered a child out of wedlock and LIED about it. He referred to New York City as "Hymie Town." His "Rainbow Coalition" practically started the political correctness movement. BUT... he is not associated in any meaningful way to Obama other than the fact the he is a black politician. People should rightly be judged by what they DO and SAY, and Obama has been very supportive of Israel thus far. The opinions expressed on this forum show nothing but prejudice and assume guilt by racial association.
56. #42 I bet you voted for Bush!!!!! hahahahaah
rachel ,   usa   (10.16.08)
Look at the mess he has left for us to clean up .......
57. 24 Andy: You mock the living word of the Lord. Why not
Rivkah   (10.16.08)
try reading the Holy Scriptures to see what is there for yourself? Ask the Lord to teach you. Your lack of indifference to my posts is promising if you redirect the energy toward something positive, like reading the scriptures. Indifference is the absence of love. You are not indifferent, so there is something there that can be redirected in a positive way.
58. 26 Rachel: Try taking two fish oil capsules twice daily and
Rivkah   (10.16.08)
cood in fish oil. There are lots of Filipinos in Israel, so there must be fish oil for cooking. Then talk to a doctor about taking low dose propranolol (Inderal) to slow your heart slightly on a 10mg daily dose. That can be used for post traumatic stress syndrome and takes away the trauma but not the memory. You have some trauma inside you that is like a red flag in front of a bull: it triggers anger. Slowing the heart slightly is a way of controlling the trauma from something that distresses you.
59. #55 And yet Nobama and Jackson's son hang out together.He
spent a great amount ,   with Jesse.   (10.16.08)
