Is this incitement?

Louis Farrakhan calling for 10,00 fearless men to say that death is sweeter... and also saying that “Retaliation is a prescription from God to calm the breasts of those whose children have been slain. So if the Federal Government will not intercede in our affairs, then we must rise up and kill those who kill us. Stalk them and kill them and let them feel the pain of death that we are feeling,”

Is that incitement? Louis Farrakhan thinks not... “I never said kill all White people. Those are not my words. Those are the words of the mischief-makers,” said Min. Farrakhan. “If you are going to quote me then quote me! But when you add your evil mischief-making to my words to make White people to think that I’m calling on Black people to kill White people to start a race war, then you’re nothing but a lying devil!”



What do you think?

Barack Obama, Louis Farrakhan and universal change

That's Louis Farrakhan the ever pleasant Supreme Minister of the Nation of Islam:

"You are the instruments that God is gonna use to bring about universal change, and that is why Barack has captured the youth. And he has involved young people in a political process that they didn’t care anything about. That’s a sign. When the Messiah speaks, the youth will hear, and the Messiah is absolutely speaking."

Will the US media or the BBC report these comments? Of course not as Barack Obama in their eyes could well be the messiah.


Thanks to NewsBusters for teh spot.

Barack Obama has another unpleasant supporter

Nation of Islam Minister Louis Farrakhan has said of Barack Obama that “This young man is the hope of the entire world that America will change and be made better".

Louis Farrakhan is an odd figure in US political life, he is often accused of being anti-semitic amongst other thought-crimes:

He has called Judaism a “gutter religion”, referred to New York as "Hymietown", praised Hitler "Hitler was a very great man. He wasn't great for me as a Black man but he was a great German and he rose Germany up from the ashes of her defeat by the united force of all of Europe and America after the First World War. Yet Hitler took Germany from the ashes and rose her up and made her the greatest fighting machine of the twentieth century, brothers and sisters, and even though Europe and America had deciphered the code that Hitler was using to speak to his chiefs of staff, they still had trouble defeating Hitler even after knowing his plans in advance. Now I'm not proud of Hitler's evil toward Jewish people, but that's a matter of record. He rose Germany up from nothing. Well, in a sense you could say there is a similarity in that we are rising our people up from nothing, but don't compare me with your wicked killers", he also said "White people are potential humans — they haven't evolved yet" and he has suggested that crack cocaine might have been a CIA plot to enslave blacks.


An unpleasant man and his support for Barack Obama whether or not Barack Obama wants the support is not going to improve Barack Obama's image.
