Fairfax Underground
Welcome to Fairfax Underground, a project site designed to improve communication among residents of Fairfax County, VA. Feel free to post anything Northern Virginia residents would find interesting.
That appears to be the White House’s defense of President Obama’s argument yesterday that the January killings at a Jewish grocery were “random.”
From today’s White House press briefing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=ZFBJB4mO_do
This is, remember, the administration that seems to have no qualms about implying or outright arguing that American policemen (and zoning boards, for that matter) are effectively racist.
The State Department’s spokeswoman also refused today to suggest the attack was aimed at Jews: https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=NDF-oN3B1PA
That the killers in Paris had specifically targeted Jews isn’t a matter of interpretation or commonsense, it’s what one of the attackers said.
The State Department said it didn’t want to speak for the French government. Well:
(Whoops!!! Someone at the White House forgot to send the memo to Francois.)
Rosenberg, of Tablet, points out that the Obama administration has at times said the attack was targeted at Jews and argues this is just a particularly insane instance of the administration’s refusing to back down after a rhetorical misstep.
But hey, who knows — one of the reasons why the White House (like the Bush White House) is delicate about referring to Islamic extremism is that it would offend some of our Muslim allies. Why not just show due deference to their anti-Semitism, too?

Why can't Obama just say the victims in the Paris kosher shop were targeted because they were Jews? Is he stupid or anti-Semitic?

‘There Were People Other than Just Jews Who Were in that Deli’

Cause he's a dirty jug-eared dune coon. He can't criticize his jihadi brothers-in-arms.

French socialist Hollande is more honest than our "president"?
A shameful and disgraceful day for America.

It's hard for the president to say they were targeted for being jews when he pals around with the likes of CAIR and the Muslim Brotherhood lest he upset his masters.

Jews and Muslims are both core Dem constituents. Obama needs these two groups to hate white Gentiles and not each other. Therefore French Muslims and Jews are BFF just like Jews and Muslims in the States
