5080653The criminal complaint filed today charging James von Brunn with murder references a notebook found in von Brunn's car in which the Holocaust Museum shooting suspect rails against President Obama, whom he writes "was created by Jews."

CBS News' Deirdre Hester flagged the passage, which appears on page three of the complaint.

"You want my weapons - this is how you'll get them," wrote von Brunn. "The Holocaust is a lie. Obama was created by Jews. Obama does what his Jew owners tell him to do. Jews captured America's money. Jews control the mass media."

The passage continues in this fashion and is followed by the signature, "James W. Von Brunn."

The full complaint is below. (PDF)

That's odd. I thought Obama was a Muslim. Well, maybe Mel Gibson will help pay for this guy's defense!

A wise old man, told me years ago that "if you are alert you can protect yourself from almost anything.....but, the one thing you can't protect yourself from is an IDIOT".

taylorsucram....I agree. The elephant in the room needs discussed openly instead of being covered up and muzzled. Cover-up leads to resentment.

Prior to the widespread use of the internet the US media controlled public dialogue completely. Americans only heard what they were told and that was what the media and the elite wanted heard.

There are special interest groups (PC Police) in the USA that feel threatened by this and would like to shut down or outlaw any dialogue that doesn't meet with their approval. You might say they define hate speech as opinions that don't agree with their own.

" This guy was not a "right wing extremist", but oh how the liberal media like to spin that rhetoric

kt8268... you are confusing the term "right wing" with the words "Republican" or "conservative".

Right wing to the extreme goes to political movements like fascism or even Nazism - which are very jingoistic or nationalistic movements as much as political groupings. When a person is extremely racist or anti specific religions, they fall into this category.

Point: Don't get so defensive... obviously not ALL Republicans or conservatives are made of the same cloth as this certainly deranged man.

I think the point of this article is to question the undue influence that the Israeli Lobby has on American leaders in the White House and in Congress and not on the ramblings of a truly demented man. Jews make up less than two percent of the population of the US yet they hold 13 Senate Seats, the body that votes for War and/or Police Actions. AIPAC, PNAC, Douglas Feith, Richard Perle, Henry Kissinger, Robert Reich, Casper Weinberger, Sandy Berger, Paul Wolfowitz, Ari Fleischer, Rahm Emanuel, Lewis Libby etc., no one disputes the fact that these individuals have "dual-citizenship" and can rightly be questioned as to where their allegiances lay. Do they work for America or do they work for Israel. Our unswerving relationship with Israel has resulted in Israel being caught spying on us and stealing state secrets many times and the deaths of over 37 American naval personnel when Israeli Jets (bought and paid for by the U.S.) knowingly fired on the American Naval vessel USS Liberty during the 6-day war. They receive 10's of Billions of Dollars in loans and aid that they never have to pay back ( thanks to the late Democrat Senator Alan Cranston, a staunch supporter of Israel) and when you add this amount to the stealing of Millions of Dollars worth of "PELL Grants" during the Clinton administration (money meant for inner-city youth college funds) perhaps you can at least understand the Rev Wrights attitude. I keep my eye on these organizations and question everything that they promote. They are the "tail" that wags the "dog" and I am getting sick and tired of it.

Yeah sure, just like YOU aren't?! LOL It's time you people accepted the decision of the American People and decide to live with that decision in Peace. Take my word for it, the alternatives you will NOT like.

When Bush was President I appreciated the fact that Dems didn't do what you are telling others to do. Which is telling them to not speak their opinion and to "deal with it"
(I have seen many of your posts on many subjects) Much as I wanted to hear from the left when Bush was in charge, I want to hear the opinions of the opposition during Obama's rein. "Dealing with it" doesn't mean you have no right to speak your mind. One of the more admirable attributes that I at one time found appealing about the Democrats is that they embraced the mantra of "While I may not agree with what you're say, I'll defend to the death your right to say it. From what I have seen from many Dems, that concept doesn't appear important to them anymore.

The Weakly Standard is a thinly disguised pro-Zionist lobby organization. This right-wing extremist, if he hated Jews as much as he said he did, would have hated the Weakly just as much. That doesn't mean he's not a right-wing extremist. He is.
