The picture that could have changed everything

It is said that a picture is worth a thousand words. It can also be worth several million votes. The above picture was taken in 2005 by Askia Muhammad:

Photojournalist Askia Muhammad released a photo this week showing former President Barack Obama and the controversial Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan from Obama’s years as a state senator — and the photographer revealed Thursday that the Congressional Black Caucus had pressured him for more than a decade to keep it hidden.

Muhammad told the Trice Edney News Wire last week that he believed that the image “absolutely would have made a difference” in the 2008 presidential campaign had it been made public.

The image taken in 2005 at a Congressional Black Caucus meeting on Capitol Hill showed then-Senator Obama, a young Democrat from Illinois, smiling side-by-side with Farrakhan.

It was spiked:

Muhammad told Fox News’ Tucker Carlson that the same day he snapped the photo, the CBC contacted him.

“A staff member from the black caucus called me and said ‘we have to have the picture back,’ and I was kind of taken aback. And we talked a couple of times on the phone after that, and I said ‘Okay, I will give the picture back to Minister Farrakhan’s chief of staff,’” he said on “Tucker Carlson Tonight.”

He added that after he gave the original copy to Farrakhan’s staff, he kept his own copy but remained quiet.

It gets worse. obama was thick with the Nation of Islam:

Muhammad also said that Obama had, at some point, people from the Nation of Islam working on his staff and in his offices.

“In fact he had people from the Nation of Islam working on his staff and in his office in the Chicago, his Senate staff. The members of the Nation of Islam helped him in his Senate campaign and on the South Side of Chicago.”

Farrakhan has quite the history of antisemitism:

Farrakhan has consistently described Jews as “the “Synagogue of Satan” and has claimed that “the Satanic Jews… control everything and mostly everybody.” In 2011, he said: “Some of you think that I’m just somebody who’s got something out for the Jewish people. You’re stupid. Do you think I would waste my time if I did not think it was important for you to know Satan? My job is to pull the cover off of Satan so that he will never deceive you and the people of the world again.”

and

“White people deserve to die, and they know, so they think it’s us coming to do it,” Farrakhan said in 2015. He has also called white people “white devils,” “potential humans” who “haven’t evolved yet” and “sinful by nature.”

and

Farrakhan spoke positively about comparisons between himself and Adolf Hitler in 1984. “The Jews don’t like Farrakhan, so they call me Hitler. Well, that’s a good name. Hitler was a very great man.” Farrakhan praised Hitler’s leadership against the United States in World War II. He briefly touched on the Holocaust, saying he wasn’t “proud of Hitler’s evil against the Jewish people, but that’s a matter of reckon.” He then praised Hitler’s leadership and compared himself to Hitler.

There are even more at the link.

Alan Dershowitz said had he known about obama’s relationship with Farrakhan he would not have campaigned for him:

Harvard Law Professor and longtime Democrat Alan Dershowitz said he would not have campaigned for then-Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) if he knew about the future president’s photo op with Louis Farrakhan.

Farrakhan, leader of the Nation of Islam, is a “virulent anti-Semite and anti-American,” Dershowitz said on “Fox & Friends.”

“He has called Judaism a gutter religion. He is a horrible, horrible human being,” he said.

This picture could have changed history. It could have saved the country from the eight years of damage visited upon this nation by barack obama.

Should’nt they all be wearing Prison Jump Suits with numbers on them and espeiclay Obama who should be doing 60 years at Sing Sing or Pelican Bay

Obama proved over and over that he preferred radical Islamists over loyal American allies. Perhaps knowing that in advance would have changed the minds of some liberals (who have also shown they feel pretty much the same way, adding dangerously insane N. Koreans to their preferences), but not many. The MEDIA would have had to told them this was wrong and bad and THEY have proven they are prone to that line of thinking.

The fact is, this was suspected in 2008 and almost demonstrably proven by 2012 but liberals didn’t care then and they don’t care now. Their gods don’t die easily.

Farrakhan spoke positively about comparisons between himself and Adolf Hitler in 1984. “The Jews don’t like Farrakhan, so they call me Hitler. Well, that’s a good name. Hitler was a very great man.” Farrakhan praised Hitler’s leadership against the United States in World War II. He briefly touched on the Holocaust, saying he wasn’t “proud of Hitler’s evil against the Jewish people, but that’s a matter of reckon.” He then praised Hitler’s leadership and compared himself to Hitler.

Trump is criticized whenever he goes an hour without denouncing the KKK or some notable supremacist. When was the last time Obama denounced Farrakhan? Or, Hitler? Never would be the answer. By the liberal way of thinking, that is the same as worshiping them.

This picture could have changed history. It could have saved the country from the eight years of damage visited upon this nation by barack obama.

Another example of the media protecting Obama. Imagine the harm, pain and misery that could have been avoided had Obama never been President.
