The setting for the question is notable. It was just before he made a photo op visit to "Yad VaShem," the Holocaust museum in Israel. What is also notable was Obama's "response" and how it was "covered" by the Mainstream media. While the Wall Street Journal's Jay Solomon and Cam Simpson noted the question, they did not note the response. Why not? Well, ABC News' Jake Tapper did, and it's telling and frightening (thanks to my friends Sean and Frank at WCBM for the tip): ===> Yarmulke-wearing fraud Obama Won't Say No to Holocaust Upon arrival at Yad Vashem, Obama was greeted by Avner Shalev, chairman of Yad Vashem. An Israeli journalist called out to Obama: "Can you ensure that there will be no second Holocaust?" Obama walked into the museum's main building without responding... In the "Hall of Remembrance," Obama put on a white yarmulke, lit the "eternal flame" and placed a white chrysanthemum wreath on a stone slab. Obama then went to the museum's Janusz Korczak Plaza, where he signed the guest book. <=== Jake Tapper goes on to quote Obama's BS speech about how terrible he feels about the Holocaust. Blah, blah, blah. Then, this: ===> Once again an Israeli journalist asked the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee how he'd help prevent a second Holocaust. "Senator can you assure Israel that there will be no second Holocaust despite Iran's threat to wipe us off the map?" he asked. Obama demurred, saying that it wasn't appropriate to answer the question there. "This is Yad Vashem!" the journalist responded. Obama said he would answer the question at a later press availability. <=== And, of course, Obama never answered the question. Disgusting. The question is a no-brainer. If you don't have an automatic, "I will assure that there won't be a second Holocaust," response, then you don't deserve to occupy a square foot of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. John McCain initiated the conversation about a second Holocaust, brining it up himself and saying he'll assure it won't happen. Barack Obama had to be asked, and he still couldn't bring himself to answer. G-d help us. Hey, Barack Obama, don't put on your phony white satin yarmulke again. Sadly, we know what's inside the head it covers. Posted by Debbie at July 24, 2008 12:29 PM ===== Comments You know how I feel, Debbie. Let me just say its an insincere photo stunt when a public figure visits Israel and pays tribute to the victims of the worst crime in Jewish history but says nothing about preventing an even worse one in the future. My G-d, does this really have to spelled out? And yes, Iran's threats are taken literally in Israel. We have advance knowledge of what can happen when warnings of annihilating the Jewish people are ignored. Rest assured, it will never happen again. Posted by: NormanF [TypeKey Profile Page] at July 24, 2008 01:08 PM ===== I believe Barack Hussein Obama is doing everything in his power to get elected TO cause another holocaust of the Jews. He doesn't "flip-flop" like some state he does--he blatantly lies in a jihad of the tongue campaign to get elected. Why does he want the presidency so badly? History sure is rhyming right now with the time leading up to WWII: A socialist with Nazi-like appeal with great support by Muslims and unthinking, weak-minded crowds worshiping this creature. There is no way that Barack Hussein Obama is going to support either Israel or America if elected. Posted by: Gabe [TypeKey Profile Page] at July 24, 2008 01:19 PM ===== You just explained it. McCain brought it up, so at this moment in time it became a political question. McCain brought it up as a political point, and don't pretend he didn't. So it's nowhere close to requiring the automatic answer you describe. If you're in a place where you're trying to be respectful and avoid politics, you don't answer political questions. That aspect is indeed automatic and simple to understand. Posted by: stormhit [TypeKey Profile Page] at July 24, 2008 01:21 PM ===== Barack Hussein Obama, the name is even chilling. I fail to understand WHY any American would even consider voting for this...IMO, a closet Muslim, let alone with all of his colon lined baggage. I'm simply amazed at how memories of 9/11 have lapsed, and become so short. Here's a photo that I grabbed from "Atlas Shrugs," that just about sums up this piece of shit of a person, with a picture of Yasser Arafart in the background: http://i35.tinypic. <http://i35.tinypic.com/24q3l09.jpg> com/24q3l09.jpg Posted by: Jackson Pearson [TypeKey Profile Page] at July 24, 2008 01:28 PM ===== And in our system of government, where president is also the commander-in-chief, we are in even more danger, with Mobarak Hussein Obama, than one suspects. Take a look at the damage current president/commander-in-chief/sell-out, whose "allies" in "war-on-terror" are terrorists themselves (Saudi Arabie & Pakistan), has done: http://www.buzzflas <http://www.buzzflash.com/contributors/2002/11/13_Laden.html> h.com/contributors/2002/11/13_Laden.html Ex-presidents are no better: http://www.blessedc <http://www.blessedcause.org/proof/Clinton%20Embracing%20Islam%20selling%20o ut%20children.htm> ause.org/proof/Clinton%20Embracing%20Islam%20selling%20out%20children.htm So much for American presidents, who turn into biggest traitors.

Posted by: TheBigOldDog [TypeKey Profile Page] at July 24, 2008 02:08 PM ===== Funny, stormhit - I was just at the Holacaust Memorial in D.C. and told my niece in that hallowed place that this should NEVER happen again and that I, a gentile, would help ensure it never did. Obama, what a piece of crap, empty suit, narcissistic, marxist, America-loathing scumbag. THAT was the PERFECT place to make such a statement, especially from a "super-natural" being of his stature. Again and again, his words (or lack thereof) and actions increasingly and clearly speak to his character. WAKE UP SENATOR MCCAIN!!! Posted by: FreeAmerican [TypeKey Profile Page] at July 24, 2008 02:12 PM ===== mock outrage at its finest. This is another example of "supporting the troops" mentality. Do you honestly think anyone is FOR the Holocaust? If you don't like Obama, fine. But try to find REAL reasons not to like the guy or his policies. This kind of nonsense doesn't resonate with anyone and just makes you look petty and hateful. Posted by: dj [TypeKey Profile Page] at July 24, 2008 02:15 PM ===== Perhaps Sen. O'Bama was concerned that anything he said would be held against him by Detroit's Muslim leadership again. Still, it seems to me that a true American patriot of any kind who walked through Yad Vashem would reflexively answer the proposal with a simple "Yes". Yet before we get too enthusiastic about Sen. McCain's comments, I'd like to remind everyone that campaign promises are not contractually binding. As long as both candidates propose a "two-state solution" with the current leadership in Ramallah, I think the future looks perilous regardless of whether Sen. McCain appears better on the campaign trail. Posted by: There is NO Santa Claus [TypeKey Profile Page] at July 24, 2008 02:29 PM ===== "This is another example of "supporting the troops" mentality." HUH? The only reason you're not speaking German or Japanese, is because thousands of GIs died for you. Moreover, the only reason you're not a Dhimmi with an Arab dick stuck somewhere in you TODAY, is because guess why...our troops are fighting ruthless killers for all of US in Iraq, Afghanistan, and elsewhere in the world. So I guess, if I'm guilty of having a "supporting our troops mentality," so be it!
