Comments on: Farrakhan: Don't Abandon Obama Over Remark

Nation Of Islam Leader Tells Supporters Not To Be Dissuaded By Senator's Reaction

[tomanyt]

Farrakhan...needs a bullet between the eyes!!! He is a racist pig.

[tomanyt]

tuckerndfw..."Hillary Clinton is unfit to be president. She tells people whatever she thinks they want to hear and then does whatever her corporate sponsors tells her to do." Unfortunately all politicians are that way. Obama will be no different.

[alicerea1]

Contrary to what others think, Hillary Clinton presents the stronger challenge to Republicans.


I think that the American People should know more about Obama''s connections with Radical Groups and Louis Farrakhan. This is a dangerous time in America. We need to find out more about this man.

This is not an attack on Obama but instead something that all of us need to be concerned about since 9/ll

[keithle1]

Please Farrakhan, shut up for once & stay away rom Obama, you idiot.

WHITE MOTHERS RULE

Right after you post your statement, "terrorislama" shows up to illustrate your point precisely.

These cut and paste death worshipers are the last dregs of the Bushbot movement, trying every lie they can think of in their pathetic attempt to continue genocide, and also aid domestic corruption.

They ignore that America is showing clearly that despite their best attempts, we don''t care about Mr. Obama''s religious affiliation, which has already been established, and is contrary to their lies.

They cannot understand that for us the important thing is to get the leader of the death worshipers out of the White House, and standing trial for their treasons and crimes against humanity.

Obama, or Clinton, Even Nader, any one but another Bushbot...

it''s funny to see some of these republican anti muslims display their bigotry and hypocrisy. They criticize obama for being muslim, yet they don''t hesitate in supporting bush and the republicans in helping the turkish muslim empire attack the US''s old allied, the kurds. This is yet another example that the US is nowhere in control, the fact that the turkish army has to invade to detract some supposed terrorists, so much for the surge. They love saudi arabia and yet almost all the hijackers from 9-11 were saudis. They hate muslims, yet they bend arse backwards and provide pakistan, a mainly muslim nation with weapons and billions of dollars.

Since Muslim Arabs are also Semitic, is not your comment incorrect, seeing as though there are far more Arab Semites than Hebrew Semites?

[truthfinder1]

One way to get a free ride on the media. I smell fish, a dead and rotten one. Does this mean Obama is anti-semitic behind closet? Clearly indicates that Farrakhan is. Race neutral gets an endorsment from a racist, and o.k. with that? Not a good sign..

"Well said!...except change white folks to "Non-Muslims"
Posted by dumbshun

"White" folks would be the more accurate term. If you know the history of the Black Muslim movement in the US, you will know that traditional Islam and the Black Muslims have very little in common. the US movement was not spread by Semitic Muslims to America in its'' traditional form, it started as a wholly Black American response to the use of a twisted version of Christianity in the US, that justified racial intolerance, discrimination, and even genocide of non "Whites", as "manifest destiny" the notion that it was sanctioned by the "Christian god" to practice such hatred against nonwhites.

Black Islam''s most famous disciple, Malcolm X was killed in part because of government opposition to the struggle for "Black" civil rights, and in part because after a pilgrimage to Mecca, Malcolm X was exposed to the positive aspects of traditional Islam, but the knowledge gained caused him to grow apart from Elijah Muhammad. In short, he made enemies on both sides.

The "Black Muslim" movement in the US was from the start about freeing one''s self from the oppression of racism. Just as the racists considered it their "god-given right" to be what they are, Black Muslims said in response, "If your god says what you do is OK, we have no benefit in following your god".

It always was about resisting racism.

[sociallyjust]

Perhaps of greater import is posing the following ''Q''.
Will mankind ever transcend our religio-cultural and other differences? So many **** sapiens remain stifled, backward, constantly misled, lied to, and abused - yes abused if not pressured into murdering and dying for one god or another - by RELIGION AND AGENTS THEREOF.

There seems to be a perpetual market of unfortunate people who are convinced by, and fall for myths, legend, lies and delusional dreams, et al, in the name of one brand-named God or another. Such appeals to them, as it does serve to fill their void of understanding their existence or purpose (falsely so).
But among the worst perpetrators of evil, fraud, murder and other unwholesome ideology, are those so-called Religious leaders, who for their own purposes, continue to use and hold their religious followers in their grip and in the grip of religion.

CONCLUSION:
Duping the people out of their money and even out of their lives in the name of MAN-MADE religion and God, still works!
Religion continues to be the scourge of mankind, and readies the minds for accepting of all sorts of fantasies, messiahs, and hate-mongers such as Farrakhan.

[dovesong-2009]

I didn''t hear Hillary reject or denounce the racist words of her surrogate. Yet the double standard reigns again. Farrakhan''s terrible statements were made years ago. Since then he has made strides in being civil. Once a rat, always a rat? I guess there is no redemtion for mankind? I love the Jewsih people, I love Israel, and I welcome anybody who has changed his heart to support Obama.

Hello taddles, thank you for your kind invitation to "cite" some passages from the "Glorious Quran" that exemplify Islam''s view of a woman''s place in society. Please therefore find below Abdullah Yusef Ali''s translation of Verse 34 from Sura IV.

"Men are the protectors and maintainers of women, because Allah has given the one more (strength) than the other, and because they support them from their means. Therefore the righteous women are devoutly obedient, and guard (in the husband''s) absence what Allah would have them guard.

As to those women on whose part ye fear disloyalty and ill-conduct, admonish them (first),
(Next), refuse to share their beds,
(And last) beat them (lightly):
But if they return to obedience, Seek not against them Means (of annoyance):
For Allah is Most High, Great (above you all)"

Of course from the muslim point of view, one cannot even blame Islam for this attitude because the words of the "Holy Quran" are those of Allah himself, so this verse in fact reflects the view of the Omnipotent, Omniscient Supreme Being himself.

"Hold one sec! You are partially correct.
However, as you can see, those last words and phrases were separate and incomplete. You have seized upon them inappropriately by taking them out of context." Posted by sociallyjust

Point taken, I stand corrected.

I will retract the part about your seeing Robertson as a protector. It is just that I see in the press, of in the blogs, or these comments threads, no where near the vilification of people such as Pat Robertson, who has advocated "cultural war", murder, and other hateful remarks, denouncement only comes softly as an after thought if someone should mention them.

The overall impression in mainstream media is that it is OK for a "White" man to posit such things as Mr. Robertson and others of his ilk, but in the case of Minister Farrakhan, small snippets are usually cut from larger speeches, taken also totally out of their context, then harped upon as if it was the main topic of the man''s speech.

Example, Malaysis''s Prime minister Mahathir Mohammed once said "If a country''s greatness is only measured by how many people it can kill, then Hitler''s Germany could be called a great country". The western press went apeschitt over "Mahathir says Hitler was great". They have done this to Minister Farrakhan frequently.

As far as the last statement, the sentence was posted in an incomplete state, there are no other words after the ones I cut and pasted, so I responded to the words that are in the post.

[sociallyjust]

To brianbwb:

Agreed! Robertson is another delusional, religious, Christian nutjob.

[sociallyjust]

Would the readers and participants make reference to the end of the last commentary, where at the very bottom, an incomplete phrase and a partial sentence appears ? They appear in error.

Thanks,

"and White man-bashing is bankrupt.
He has only contributed divisiveness, destruction, and..." Posted by sociallyjust

Exchange Minister Farrkhan''s name in your post to Pat Robertson, and you would be even more accurate, but apparently to you it is OK because you see Pat as a protector.

As far as "white man bashing" is concerned, it will be bankrupt only when the largest segment of the "white" population no longer practices economic and social apartheid. Please show statistics that show that "whites" no longer practice discrimination against "Blacks", then your "bankruptcy" assertion might have merit.

[sociallyjust]

Any attention given to Mr Hatemonger Farrakhan, is a waste of precious time.
His mind is filled with hatred and ill-conceived delusions of siezing power that would enable him to be in a position to inflicting harm and death onto Whites, Jews, Christians and others.
Hatemonger and MAJOR HYPOCRITE Farrakhan should be considered dangerous and should be incarcerated under US and/or state penal/justice codes for INCITEMENT OF HATE.

In addition, and consistent with historical mass murderers, Louis Farrakhan USES RELIGION, FEAR AND HATE AS POLITICAL TOOLS, which appeal to those (his own)unfortunate victims of such a sophisticated and treacherous political ''evildevil.''
To quote Abraham Lincoln:
"Those who deny freedom to others, deserve it not for themselves."
Yes, L F, if there is a hell, you have more than one foot in it for being rotten to the core, and right in the Land of Lincoln!

[shingles1]

This is ridiculous.

So Obama is somehow liable for the idiotic statements by any black personality out there, whether or not he even knows this person and whether or not he''s sought out his support?

I guess according to this idiot logic Reagan therefore is liable and tainted by the fact that white supremacist David Duke was a Reagan supporter.

The fact that they''re pumping this fake Farrakhan "story" while ignoring the fact that McCain has SOUGHT OUT AND WELCOMED the support of well-known anti-Catholic BIGOT John Hagee speaks volumes.

And for the record, this is not a liberal/conservative thing. Conservatives like Ann Althouse and Bill Donohue are already calling upon McCain to distance himself from Hagee. It''s just that the news media loves it''s little McCain darling too much to notice.
