War on Terror = Holocaust?

June 10th, 2005 at 9:12 am by Preston Taylor Holmes

We’ve known for a long time that U.S. Representative Charlie Rangel is little more than your typical, run-of-the-mill race-baiting socialist – and an unintelligent one at that – but now he seems to have stepped over the random bedwetting leftist precipice and into raging full-on drooling idiocy.

Rangel unapologetically compares the U.S. war on terror (by the way, the war in Iraq and war on terror are inter-related, so I don’t differentiate the two) to the slaughter of 6-million Jews during the Holocaust.

Powerful lawmaker Charlie Rangel has provoked the ire of the Anti-Defamation League by likening U.S. military action in Iraq to the Holocaust of World War II.

The Iraq war “is the biggest fraud ever committed on the people of this country. … This is just as bad as the 6 million Jews being killed,” the 74-year-old Harlem Democrat insisted during a Monday radio appearance on the WWRL-AM morning show with Steve Malzberg and Karen Hunter. “The whole world knew and they were quiet about it because it wasn’t their ox being gored.”

When interviewer Malzberg challenged Rangel’s analogy, the congressman replied: “I am saying that people’s silence when they know things terrible are happening is the same thing as the Holocaust.”

So, when given a chance to clarify or retract his idiotic and illogical analogy, he tries to put together a coherent sentence, and fails miserably. Rangel also neglected to compare the slaughter, torture and mass murder that Sodomy Insane committed against his own people to the Holocaust. Still not an entirely accurate analogy, but much closer.

Yesterday, after Malzberg sent me an audiotape of Rangel’s appearance, ADL President Abraham Foxman responded: “It is so outrageous that a leader of Congress would compare one thing to the other. Sometimes we say it’s ignorance. Charlie Rangel is not ignorant. Charlie Rangel has been there.”

So, Foxman is still willing to excuse Rangel because Rangel was somehow persecuted to the same degree as WWII-era Jews. Rangel has been there? Hardly. Rangel wasn’t done though, he still had more MoveOn.Org talking points to spout off…

On the radio show, Rangel also suggested that proponents of military action – namely Vice President Cheney, Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld, Rumsfeld’s former deputy Paul Wolfowitz and Pentagon adviser Richard Perle – don’t worry about the Americans in Iraq because they’re “black and poor white soldiers” from “the lower economic class.”

“They had a plan to put our kids in harm’s way long before 9/11,” Rangel said. “Because it’s not their kids … that’s exactly why. They go and pick a fight, and then say, ‘I’ll hold your coat.’”

There’s your modern mainstream Dim-O-Crack party, ladies and gents. Raving lunatics out of touch with logic and common sense, willing to sell out the country’s national security as long as it brings down the Bush administration. It’s going to be a while before they win another national election.

    Even if we bought his bullshit comparison of ‘silence’ on the matter – that’s completely off base. The dude is a loon, hasn’t he been paying attention to his own freakin’ peeps? These people have been about as silent as 1000 crickets in a concert hall. The liberals haven’t shut up about the war on terror, and not just the politicians, the people too. They have been far from silent on the issue, this is nothing like the holocaust. As a Jew, I’m inclined to kick a liberal in the head for the comments made by this moron.

    These are the people with whom John f. Kerry was going to “bring us together.” How do you bridge the gulf of perception between the way Rangel and his ilk see the world and the way those of us who stand in the Six Meat Buffet line see it? You can’t. It’s a cultural war here at home to same it extent it is abroad, and there’s no basis for compromise, no “middle ground.” You have to fight these morons as hard as you do Islamists.

    That just warmed the cockles of my shriveled, black heart.
