Nazi kapo targets pro-Israel conservative
Former Nazi kapo George Soros has set up a Super-PAC to target pro-Israel conservative Congressman Allen West (R-Fl), one of the most pro-Israel members of Congress (Hat Tip: Sunlight).
The Super PAC has been christened “Dump West” and is expected to file with the Federal Election Commission early next week. Sources have told The Shark Tank that a website along with a targeted web advertising campaign will soon be launched. Democratic House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi asked former Congressman Larry Smith, who’s now working as a lobbyist, to help line up initial funding for the group. West is said to be at the top of Pelosi’s hit list.Anyone who can should please contribute to West's campaign. Maybe they can get some Sheldon Adelson money for him. It would be a pity if Allen West lost.
Sources have also us that left wing billionaire George Soros is among those who committed to a $5 million war chest to defeat West. “It’s not surprising that the hard Left is seeking to beat West” said Florida Tea Party leader Eric Von Tausch “West’s a conservative hero.”
According to sources Halloran has brought in “American Directions” to manage the Super-PAC’s effort for internet based, low-dollar fundraising, polling and voter contact. “American Directions” is among the heavy weight firms in Washington DC and is considered on the on the cutting edge of the most sophisticated technology for voter contact through text messaging and email as well as sophisticated voter mailings.
The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee is fully on-board in the efforts to raise money for the “Dump West” effort. West’s Democratic opponent Patrick Murphy has raised a sizeable war chest and those donors who has given him the maximum are viewed as potential donors to the “Dump West” effort.
Conservative activists think that exposure of the Soros backed anti-West Super PAC will only spur pro-West Super-PAC activities. “We need to spend dollar for dollar with the liberals to re-elect Allen,” said Von Tausch.

West warns of 'Second Holocaust'

Rep. Allen West (R-Fla.) warned that Israel could become the site of a "second Holocaust" if the United States does not provide military cover against Iran, a local Jacksonville, Fla., radio station, WOKV-AM/FM, reported on Monday.I love Allen West, and I think that the US ought to be striking Iran - for its own sake and also for Israel's sake. But whether or not the US strikes Iran isn't going to protect us from a 'second Holocaust.' If God wants there to be a 'second Holocaust' - God forbid - there is nothing that the United States can do about it, and if God doesn't want there to be a 'second Holocaust' then there is nothing Iran can do to perpetrate one. We have to do what we are supposed to do, and make our best efforts to protect ourselves (including trying to get the US to do something) and God will take care of the rest.
“You’re looking at a second Holocaust … [if Israel doesn't] know they can trust and depend upon the stars and stripes … to provide them support,” said West, who was speaking at the First Baptist Church in West Palm Beach.
“There will be no spiritual homeland for Christians to return back to" if that Holocaust does occur, said West in the same speech, as reported by the Palm Beach Post."There will be no homeland for the Jewish people in the United States of America for their birthright. This is a dangerous situation and we have to take the Iranians for their word.”
In the same speech, West also warned that Israel's other hostile neighbor, Syria, could quickly turn from its current political turmoil to war against Israel.
“What happens if all of a sudden Syria doesn’t focus on fighting each other, but focus on fighting Israel?” West asked.

Florida Congressman On Israel-Iran Sarkozy Obama Statements on Bibi
“The threats to Israel right now are immense”, Florida Congressman Allen West said last night in a speech at the home of Rich Roberts. Known as a staunch supporter of Israel, West spoke about the Israel-Iran threats which currently faces the Middle-East, and about the recent ‘off-mic’ statements from the French and American presidents which sparked widespread criticism.
“The fact that President Sarkozy and President Obama quote on quote off microphone made the statements that they made, it’s not so much the words that they said, but the fact that those words were heard on the Arab street”, West said.
The first-term Congressman went on to talk about his relationship with Israel, and the love and support he has for it.
“America is my physical homeland, Israel is my spiritual homeland” he said.The Congressman concluded, “I want you all to know, for your children and grandchildren, I will not rest, until their future and their legacy, as Americans, and their Jewish Heritage is protected and secure for years and years to come”. “Le’chaim”.

Awesome interview with Representative Allen West

You are meeting tomorrow with the Palestinian Authority leadership. What is your message to them?Read the whole thing. He's awesome.
There is one very simple question I would ask: Do you really believe you are a credible peace partner? Because I think with the reconciliation pact with Hamas, that is a very telling thing. The fact is that they are trying to back-door the process by going to the UN for a unilateral declaration of a Palestinian state, when we don’t have a firm recognition of Israel, we don’t have the renouncing of terrorism. I would also ask, what is a Palestinian state? It is something that never existed before.
And even the word Palestine.
You take it back to Palestina – which comes from Philistia – which was nothing but a declaration by Roman Emperor Hadrian in 73 AD.
This is a region, it is not anything tied to a certain group of people; it would be just the same as saying we should have an Appalachian state, separate from North Carolina. It’s those questions I’d like to ask.
Do you support two states for two peoples?
I think that you have to first of all support the modern-day state of Israel. I think you have to support Israel post the ’67 borders. Now, I am not going to sit here and dictate to Israel what their polices should be, but my perspective on it is that I have never seen a Palestinian state, and I think before that ever gets talked about, there are some concessions that have to be made on their side: the recognition of Israel and the renouncing of terrorism.
And once again it comes back to those very important words: a credible peace partner.
I think the last thing you need to have is an erosion of your state of security. Look at what is going on right now. You gave back Gaza and the only thing you got in return were Kassam rockets and 220-millimeter [mortar shells]. You pulled out of southern Lebanon, and what did you get? You got a more militant Hezbollah, which during the Second Lebanon War rained down rockets and missiles.
So I think the other side needs to come to the table and show they are a credible partner before we continue to say to Israel, “This is what you must do, and that you must believe in a two-state solution.”
And I think the other thing we have to do is a better job on the information, propaganda side of this thing... I remember during the flotilla incident, I was sitting there looking at the TV with my wife, and I said, “They have paint guns on their backs.” She said, “How can you tell?” And I said, “I can tell the silhouette of a paint gun.” So you did everything necessary to try and have less of a confrontation, but yet you were attacked.
What I told people in America was to think about what if America was participating in a sanctioned blockade, and all of a sudden we boarded ships, and our Navy SEALs were attacked, what would you expect our Navy SEALs to do? We should allow Israel to do the exact same thing.
If you have rockets and missiles coming in out of Mexico over into the Texas territory, guess what we are going to do? We are going to defend our sovereignty. So why should we expect Israel to do anything less?
...
There are those who argue, however, that no matter how good the messenger, the message won’t be received because there is a double standard toward Israel and the Jews.
Yes, there is a horrific double standard. We, as your best ally, need to help you on that.
Because a lot of our media sources follow that duplicitous hypocrisy as well. We need to do better in our country.
Look, there is no better bond than the bond between American and Israel. I grew up in Georgia. I grew up knowing probably more about this country through Sunday school, Bible study and everything before I was a high school graduate, than maybe a lot of people who live here in this region. So that when I came here in 2009, it was just the same as me coming home.
A part of me is here.
This is my wife’s first time here, and a part of her is here because of the Judeo-Christian faith heritage that we share, the values that we share, the democracy that we share, the sense of liberty and freedom.
We need to understand that we are in this fight together and what is being done to Israel is also being done to America, so as Israel falls, then guess who is the next target – America. Because America and Israel are truly the beacons and shining light in this world.
I call it a sea of darkness of despots, dictators, theocrats and autocrats. If we let the light go out here, there is no doubt that the next target is the next shining light. So I think we have to do a better job with Israel in helping getting that message across.
You mention the strong Israeli-US bonds. Has President Barack Obama hurt those – have they been weakened over the last three years?
I won’t say that it has been weakened; it has definitely been shaken. I think that when you make the declarations that he has made in some instances, that is very hurtful.
I would have thought that going into his third year [as president], he would have come to visit Israel and show that support, show that bond, show that closeness and stand here. It was a great event when Prime Minister [Binyamin] Netanyahu came and spoke at the joint session of Congress [in May], and I would expect the American president to come here and address the Knesset just as well – to show that inextricable bond, to show that we are two countries which have roots that are just so intertwined.
Do you think President Obama has hurt Israel?
I think that President Obama has left a question mark with a lot of the Israelis. They are really not sure which direction things are going. You may see this, but then you get that. So there is a lot of uncertainty, and really when you talk to people in the US, that is the big theme, uncertainty – be it in our financial markets, our unemployment situation, debt deficit, foreign policy, whatever, there is just a lot of uncertainty.

Allen West rips Obama on Israel
Congressman Allen West Response to President Barack Obama's Call for a Two State Solution in Israel
(WASHINGTON) --- Congressman Allen West (FL-22) released this statement today:
"Today’s endorsement by President Barack Obama of the creation of a Hamas-led Palestinian state based on the pre-1967 borders, signals the most egregious foreign policy decision his administration has made to date, and could be the beginning of the end as we know it for the Jewish state.
From the moment the modern day state of Israel declared statehood in 1948, to the end of the 1967 Six Day War, Jews were forbidden access to their holiest site, the Western Wall in Jerusalem’s Old City, controlled by Jordan’s Arab army.
The pre-1967 borders endorsed by President Obama would deny millions of the world’s Jews access to their holiest site and force Israel to return the strategically important Golan Heights to Syria, a known state-sponsor of terrorism.
Resorting to the pre-1967 borders would mean a full withdrawal by the Israelis from the West Bank and the Jewish neighborhoods of East Jerusalem. Make no mistake, there has always been a Nation of Israel and Jerusalem has been and must always be recognized as its rightful capital.
In short, the Hamas-run Palestinian state envisioned by President Obama would be devastating to Israel and the world’s 13.3 million Jews. It would be a Pavlovian style reward to a declared Islamic terrorist organization, and an unacceptable policy initiative.
America should never negotiate with the Palestinian Authority- which has aligned itself with Hamas. Palestine is a region, not a people or a modern state. Based upon Roman Emperor Hadrian's declaration in 73 AD, the original Palestinian people are the Jewish people.
It's time for the American people to stand by our strongest ally, the Jewish State of Israel, and reject this foreign policy blunder of epic proportions.
While the winds of democracy may blow strong in the Middle East, history has demonstrated that gaps in leadership can lead to despotic regimes. I have questions for President Obama: 'Who will now lead in Egypt?' and 'Why should American taxpayers provide foreign aid to a nation where the next chapter in their history may be the emergence of another radical Islamic state?'
President Obama has not stood for Israel or the Jewish people and has made it clear where the United States will stand when Palestine attempts to gain recognition of statehood by the United Nations. The President should focus on the real obstacle to security- the Palestinian leadership and its ultimate goal to eliminate Israel and the Jewish people.”

"DEFENDER OF ISRAEL" In a day when Palestinians praise terrorists who slaughter children Israel needs strong men to stand with her. Here is one such man...
CONGRESSMAN ALLEN WEST is our own recently-elected, decorated military hero, a lawmaker committed to American Exceptionalism and supporter of Zion. He is unwavering in his commitment to speak undeniable truth at all times and in all situations, irrespective of the ramifications of his candidness. Moreover, Allen West has been a powerful advocate for Israel for many years.
In the midst of the uncertain future Israel and Jews throughout the world face as a result of rising anti-Global Semitism and de-legitimization, as well the growing threat that Radical Islam poses to all those who believe in Judeo-Christian values, we must take this opportunity to express our gratitude to Congressman Allen West

Rep. Allen West to CAIR rep: Don't try and blow sunshine up my butt
Congressman Allen West, Florida Republican, hosted a townhall meeting on Monday in Pompano Beach and was confronted by the executive director of the Council for American Islamic Relations (CAIR), Nezar Hamze. With a Koran in his hand, Mr. Hamze asked the Florida Congressman, "Can you show me one verse in this Koran where it says to attack America. attack Americans, or attack innocent people?” (h/t the shark tank).
Mr. West replied, "Well, of course it doesn't say to attack America or Americans. I mean, the book was written somewhere around the 8th or 9th century so America wasn't even around." Rep. West pointed out that the Koran has "talk about killing infidels."
At one point the congressman begins to list various dates when muslims attacked and killed non-muslims and the audience starts cheering. "Major Hassan was shouting 'Alluah Akbar.' The people who flew those planes into the buildings shouted 'Alluah Akbar.' I've been on the battlefield, my friend, ok? Don' try and blow sunshine up my butt."
"I am ashamed to be here with all of these people and you attack Islam," said Mr. Hamze. To which Mr. West strongly responded:"You attack us." He continued, "I went to Muslim countries to defend the freedom of Muslim people. Don't try to come up here and criticize me."
Rep. West faced pro-Islamic advocacy representatives in the past and defended his views on Islam. In early February he was accused of "insulting" and "demonizing" the religion. Prior that, he told a local Florida radio show that Minnesota Democratic Representative Keith Ellison, a Muslim, represents the “antithesis of the principles upon which this country was established, you’ve got to be able to defeat them intellectually in debate and discourse, and you to just have to be able to challenge each and every one of their assertions very wisely and very forthright.”
Mr. West recently met with terrorism expert Brigitte Gabriel, President of the organization ACT! for America.

Allen West condemns PLO flag in Washington
Freshman Representative Allen West (R-Fl) has joined House Foreign Affairs Committee chairwomanIleana Ros-Lehtinen (R-Fl) in condemning the PLO flag flying in Washington (Hat Tip: The Right Scoop).
The office of U.S. Rep. Allen West, R-Plantation, says the freshman congressman is publicly condemning the Palestine Liberation Organization, or PLO, for raising its flag outside its offices in the nation's capital.Make that two representatives who understand that the PLO is still a terrorist organization. Do I hear three?
"The raising of this flag is an attempt to legitimize an organization with a known history of terrorist actions," West said, in a written news release.
"By allowing this flag to be flown, the United States is extending a diplomatic right that we refrain from offering to even our own allies, like Taiwan. This action is a diplomatic slap in the face of our greatest of allies, Israel."
He was joined by another South Florida congressperson and fellow Republican, U.S. Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, in condemning the flag-raising. They're asking President Obama and the Department of State's Foreign Missions to yank back the permission that was given to the PLO to raise it.
