- America’s powerful Jewish lobby is alive, well and kicking.
- It is likely to become even more influential when President-Elect Barack Obama takes office as the 44th president of the United States in two months time, and Rahm Israel Emanuel the son of a former Zionist terrorist becomes the White House Chief of Staff in Obama’s administration.
- Emanuel, 51, is the first person named by Obama to become a member of his administration. He has been a Democratic member of the US House of Representatives since 2003, representing Illinois’s 5th congressional district, which covers much of the north side of Chicago and parts of suburban Cook County.
- Illinois is Obama’s home state, from where he was elected to the US Senate in 2006. He is the son of a Kenyan father and a white American mother. He was (allegedly -ed) born in the US State of Hawaii and grew up in Chicago.
- Emanuel was born in Chicago, Illinois. His first name, Rahm, means “high” or ‘lofty” in Hebrew, while his surname, Emanuel, means “God is with us.” The Jews call themselves “God’s chosen people” a description that implies that the Jews believe that non-Jews (i.e. the rest of the world) don’t matter. The meaning of Emanuel’s surname seems to be of a piece with this reprehensible Jewish belief. Judaism is the only religion in the world that, by implication, denigrates the followers of other faiths in this belittling fashion.**
- According to Emanuel’s father, his son is the namesake of Rahamim, a Lehi group commander who was killed. Rahm’s surname was adopted by his family in 1933 after Rahm’s paternal uncle, Emanuel Auerbach, was killed in a skirmish with Arabs in Jerusalem.
**This is a disingenuous statement which ignores Islam’s denigration of other faiths, especially towards Judaism, as practiced by most of the Arab world. Please note both religions are of Semitic origin.– Ed
