Charles Johnson, Hypocrisy Defined



Thanks to alert reader "anonymous" for reminder about Johnson's "stalker" post earlier this year.

UPDATE:
Frequent commenter "timur" congratulates Pamela Geller on her website (no link for her):

Where are the suicide bombers when you really need them? One well placed Moslem with a bomb vest could have taken out Sheehan and the whole moonbat colony. A golden opportunity missed!

I saw Cindy Sheehan in NYC on Friday. Her supporters were proclaiming she was going to replace Bush and Cheney. She screamed at the top of her lungs, and there were posters all over the place about how 9/11 was an inside job.

This does not respect her son, and in fact she should be ashamed of the mockery of a human being she has become.

Her son fought and died for this country, and in response, she meets with those such as Hugo Chavez, who seek to destroy America. Her son is turning in his grave, at the way his mother is dishonoring his memory.

The fact that she is a mother and is so dishonoring her son is a double insult; it makes her the worst sort of a person out there. She is the sort of person who lets her son's grave go without a headstone, so she can use the money allocated for the headstone to protest against the country he fought and died for. She does this all while pretending to be acting in his memory, when really she was a communist and anti-American activist prior to her son going off to Iraq.

I was with a friend from out of town who asked what that protest in Union Square was, and I answered: "Don't worry about that. It's just a bunch of antisemites (they believe we fight only for Israel and Israel was behind 9/11). They prove America is a great and free nation, as they are saying the worst sorts of things, that America is behind 9/11, and yet do not face any sort of punishment."

I'm sure some of our fauxtography experts over there can explain why we don't see Stark's middle finger in that photo.

Yes anti-Semites are everywhere. You cant be too careful you know. They are everywhere. They run the media and the banks too!
Thats why the Muslibs criticise US support for Israel and Israeli foreign policy and Israeli border claims - because theyre anti-Semites!

You did good. Keep it up.


Oh btw, I nearly missed your profile there.

I am a tireless advocate for freedom of speech and freedom of religion

Tireless you said. You wrote that?

I find it difficult to reconcile that with your latest demand that people should face punishment for shouting in the street.

I guess Pamela Geller now qualifies as a "nutroots blogger" and a "stalker."

Anon,

I love it when I am called trash by people like you. It gives me goose bumps. I beg you...please keep complimenting me!

Now as far as the rest goes...

Cindy Sheehan did let her son's grave go without a headstone longer than the typical amount of time, because she was too busy speaking out against the cause he fought and died for to put a headstone there. It is a fact.

I was at the event. Were you? Who are you to deny the screaming I heard? Absolutely the speakers were screaming, or the loudspeaker was so loud, that my eardrums were being blasted from that alone. So yes, it was unbearably loud, either from screaming or the loudspeakers. There was no courtesy to the fact that the area has many offices, and business was possibly disrupted.

Let me add that, yes, it is antisemitic to suggest Israel was behind 9/11 and that Israel was behind the war in Iraq. I am not saying one way or another whether I support the war in Iraq, as it is irrelevant. But to suggest that Israel controls foreign policy is nonsensical and not based in fact, but based in hatred. Sheehan said exactly that. This is why she is an antisemite, as are her supporters, who go further and say Israel was behind 9/11. ('troothers' were there on that day)

Finally, Chavez has publicly called Bush the devil, and aligns himself with Iran, a nation that is seeking nukes and funding worldwide terror. He is not merely seeking to steer Venezuela clear of US intervention, he is actively working with America's enemies.

Sheehan advocates all these positions, knowing her son thought exactly the opposite, and does so supposedly in his name. It boggles the mind how people think the fact that she lost her son makes her beyond reproach; the fact that she lost her son would normally mean she would try to honor her son. The fact that she is actively dishonoring her son means she should be openly shown to be the dishonorable woman she is.

Nope but your own neocon ally Pam from Atlas Shrugs posted photos of it. Sheehan was being friendly and cordial posing for photos with you guys. Pam was giving her the finger. Your own photos prove you're a liar.

Anon,

I was not at the event Pamela went to. I was at the event that "Urban Infidel" went to on a different date, and stated as much.

The loudspeaker was deafening at this event.

Red: I love it when I am called trash by people like you. It gives me goose bumps. I beg you...please keep complimenting me!

Translation: I am an attention whore. I troll because I am needy.

Red: She is the sort of person who lets her son's grave go without a headstone, so she can use the money allocated for the headstone to protest against the country he fought and died for.

Translation: I'm the sort of person who thinks a chunk of rock is more valuable than human lives. I'm also incredibly petty.

Translation: I went on like that for another hour. My "friend" was deeply impressed and enthralled by my awesome description of all war protesters as anti-Semite! (Also that dog who crapped on my shoe! Anti-semitic cur!) And my "friend" is totally real! I have friends! I do! Man, I wish we could execute you people!

oh happenstance, more compliments, thank you! I feel so loved!

I will respond simply to the following:

Translation: I'm the sort of person who thinks a chunk of rock is more valuable than human lives. I'm also incredibly petty.

If Sheehan were too busy saving lives to put up a headstone, you would have a point. Instead, she was too busy pretending to act in her son's memory, while actually desecrating his memory, most vividly seen in her delay of the headstone.

I already explained that if someone believes Israel is behind 9/11, as Sheehan's supporters do, they are antisemites. It is also antisemitic to claim Israel dictates American foreign policy, as Sheehan has stated. The fact that they protest the war is not what makes them antisemites, it is what they specifically say.

It cannot get more clear than that.

Whatever. It's the same group of three of four right-wing crusties who go to every anti-war event in New York. All you do is waste police overtime money because they have to pull up barricades to protect you.

And Sheehan's not much different from event to event. So stop lying OK?

You just shot yourself in the foot on this one. You provide a photo of a right wing neocon cunt giving Cindy Sheehan the finger and Sheehan taking it all in good humor. Then you go try to convince us that it was Sheehan who was acting like the asshole.

Uh Huh.

Anti-Semitism is real. Unfortunately people like our friend red tulips have completely drained it of any real meaning.

For them it means "anybody who questions my right wing politics or who thinks the Palestinians are human".

I also had the misfortunate of clicking on its "photo" (and I use the term loosely) website.

Is there something about right-wingers that they can't go to the store and buy a camera with a flash? Is there something about them that thinks "well if I frame a photo badly from behind thesubject from a off kilter angle at high noon with no flash and boost the contrast up in photoshop to the point where it looks like it came from a 1998 digicam that it's the protesters who look bad and not that I'm a crappy photographer"?

Ha. Ha. But even it its photoblog the only good photo is the one of Sheehan who, once again, posed graciously and smile for people she had to know were going to post it on the internet to try to mock her

And once again, in NYC, it's like 3 or 4 right wing crusties who go to every anti-war event.

Sheehan probably felt sorry for them. I wouldn't be so generous.

Lol. Spoken like a true TIRELESS advocate for freedom of speech and freedom of religion!

Accusing Israel of being behind 9/11 is NOT anti-Semitism. Stop being silly and trying to lower the bar.
Israel are more than capable of carrying out an attack as ambitious as 9/11 as are many countries with well-funded intelligence agencies. Personally I think its ridiculous, but thats just me.

If you need convincing that Israel is not incapable of such an act then read about the Lavon affair, its well documented. Read the witness accounts from the USS Liberty.

Its well-proven conspiracies like these that give ammunition to the troofer nuts. Not their Jew-hatred.

Red Tulips said...

Anon,

Thank you for showing yourself to be the nutjob you are. You actually think Israel could be behind 9/11. This is so insane and so lacking in fact (as well as attacking the one JEWISH STATE in the world), that it is most certainly evidence of antisemitism.

Why was Israel targeted for this hate? Why not Zimbabwe? France? Portugal? You chose the one JEWISH state for a nonsensical conspiracy theory...sad.

I did not purposely attend the event. I happened to be in the area anyway and bumped into it. I did not stay longer than a few minutes, because I try to avoid events like those.

Anyway, I find it amusing to see support for 9/11 conspiracy theories on this site, which is supposedly 'anti-hate.' It's okay to hate Jews, of course...because they deserve the hate, don't they? They rule the world and dictate foreign policy, so Jews are fair game?

But no, you are not antisemites.

Tulips, there are lots of genuine, honest reasons to criticise Israel. Too many to list here.

Though for genuine critics of Israel, I think contriving claims about 9/11 is certainly misguided and unproductive.
If you ask why people don’t criticise place like Zimbabwe - people already do! It’s not a mutually exclusive situation.

Criticism of Israel won’t stop when we start sanctions or action against Zimbabwe. It will stop when Israel starts treating Palestinians like human beings and reigns in influential Zionist extremists at home and abroad. It’ll stop when influential people in the US stop endorsing Israel’s oppression of a whole population of Palestinians and violent and brutal occupation of Palestine.

I don’t understand why you gave France and Portugal as examples of public political pressure (-Oh you called it 'hate'). As far as I’m aware they don’t receive Billions of dollars in military aid from the US taxpayer and use it to oppress millions of people.

They are also not illegally occupying anybody’s land.

Maybe thats why?
