Op-ed:
Obama and Biden...No Friends of Israel
By: Diane Sori / The Patriot Factor / Right Side Patriots / Right Side Patriots Radio
The Op-ed posted here is this authors opinion alone,and does not necessarily represent the views of blogspot.com or Google.

Simply, Joe Biden is no friend to Israel nor was Barack Obama when he was in office. Two U.S. presidents speaking out of both sides of their mouths when it concerns the Jewish State of Israel. Two presidents twisting the knife deeper into the back of America's staunchest ally not just in the Middle East but in the world, all while capitalizing on political infamy that serves no one well.

And it started with Obama back in 2011, when he “demanded” that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu have Israel “retreat” to its pre-1967 borders, with “retreat” the Palestinian demand for peace negotiations to even begin. And Netanyhau's response to Obama was that, “the pre-1967 borders are 'indefensible,” which they then were...thus proving to all willing to listen that in his pushing for said borders Obama was making light of both Israel's right to determine and secure its own borders, and of her people's right to feel safe within said borders.

But little did the safety of Israeli citizens matter to Obama for he helped to usher in a decided change in U.S. policy towards the Jewish State. And what was initially but a small, could be patched-up split in U.S./Israeli relations grew wider, culminating in what I call Obama's “great divide”...a “divide” that not only further jeopardized said relations, but put Israel and the world in danger. More on that in a bit.

In fact, Obama's “demands” of Israel while president...including his “land swaps” fiasco that called for Israel to suspend all new settlement construction in the Israel owned West Bank...showed exactly who he personally...and thus our country...aligned with. Clearly, the Palestinian agenda was more important to Obama than was Israel's objective then as it is today...simply to live in peace without having to fear the Arab world that overwhelmingly surrounds them.

Now remember back to May 2015, when this man and his administration tried to interfere in Israel's election in an attempt to remove BiBi Netanyahu from office. And how exactly did Obama do this...simply by his funneling what were our taxpayer dollars to the State Department who in turn, then funneled those monies in the guise of grants... hundreds of thousands of dollars in grants...to a pair of “questionable” non-profit groups who used said monies to directly try to unseat Netanyahu. Don't believe me, then read this report, in full, in the July 12, 2016 edition of “THE TIMES OF ISRAEL.”

Also in 2015, in what I consider to be the worst of Obama's anti-Israel stances...the one that solidified what I call his aforementioned “great divide”...was when said “divide” was officially given a name, as in the “Joint Comprehension Plan of Action” (the JCPOA) otherwise known as “Obama's very bad nuclear deal.” Remember, this deal made in conjunction with the Israel-hating U.N., would allow Iran...the world's leading sponsor of terrorism...to join the club, if you will, of nuclear nations.

And while Obama and Iran claimed then and do still claim now courtesy of our puppet president, that Iran's goal has always been the development of “peaceful use” nuclear energy, Iran and the mullahs simply don't care that most know they've always been lying. And why should they care when Obama had to know Iran's true objective was to garner an arsenal of nuclear weapons, and yet he kept pushing the JCPOA down everyone's throat. A vile secret kept, while always hoping that Iran would not get caught “red handed” producing weapons that surely would be pointed directly at Israel.

But what's even more disturbing about the JCPOA is Obama's underhanded way in securing it. How so...in January 2016 while the deal was still in the final negotiates stage Obama, secretly in the middle of the night, sent $1.7 billion in cash (using non-U.S. currency) to the government of Iran...claiming it was the settlement of a decades-old arbitration claim between the U.S. and Iran. And this occurred within just days of his already having make a $400 million cash payment to Iran...a payment done on the very same day Tehran agreed to release four American held prisoners. Simply, what Obama did was what America never does, as in negotiating with terrorists by literally, in my opinion, “buying” said prisoners freedom, while at the same time the monies helped bring to fruition one of the worst deals any U.S. president ever made...a deal that not only jeopardized Israel, but the world as well. 


Want more? In December 2016, just one month before he was to leave office, Obama instructed our then U.N. ambassador to vote in favor of a resolution that allowed the Security Council to condemn Israeli settlements in both the West Bank and East Jerusalem, calling them a “flagrant violation” of international law, thus having “no legal validity.” And Israel's response to Obama's turncoat action came courtesy of a statement from Netanyahu's office saying that, “Israel rejects this shameful anti-Israel resolution at the U.N. and will not abide by its terms.” In fact, Netanyahu's response went even further by rightfully blaming Obama for failing to “protect Israel against this gang-up at the UN” and “colluding with the country’s (as in Israel's) detractors.”

Three major back stabs to Israel courtesy of Obama occurred within a mere two years time, but he wasn't done yet for just as his time in office was finally reaching its end, he gave Israel the proverbial finger one last time by releasing $221 million to the Palestinians, monies House Republicans had been blocking. And Obama, true to form, did so in a most despicable manner via his sending a notification to Congress that said money release was signed and sealed just hours before Donald J. Trump was to be sworn into office as America's 45th president.

Simply, Obama's anti-Israel actions while in office coupled with his deep seated personal hatred of Netanyahu, laid the groundwork for Iran's probably, in time, securing nuclear weapons. And when you add in Joe Biden's current flip-flop Israeli policies, you know more problems lay ahead for Israel as Biden is basically continuing the anti-Israel policies of Obama.

How so? Biden's two-faced Israeli stance actually surfaced during his first trip to Israel as president when he told Netanyahu that, “I don't believe you have to be a Jew to be a Zionist, and I am a Zionist.” And while those words might be true in most cases, for Biden it's just one more in a long list of lies told. And when that's coupled with this year's caught on “hot mic” moment where he said, “I told him, Bibi, and don’t repeat this, but you and I are going to have a ‘come to Jesus’ meeting”...you just know that Israel has no real friend in Joe Biden...never has and never will.

And Biden's sorted history with Israel and Netanyahu not just dates back to when he was Obama's VP, but goes further back to when in 1973 while still a senator, the great Israeli Prime Minister Golda Meir noticed that when meeting Biden for the first time that he outwardly “signaled his lack of diplomatic experience” when laying out concerns over Israel having seized land in the West Bank and Gaza Strip.

Also, in 1982, then Sen. Joe Biden was among a group of U.S. lawmakers who had a not so cordial meeting with then Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin. And it was here where Biden pressed Begin to “halt” the building of Jewish settlements in the West Bank, while at the same time openly criticizing of other aspects of Israel’s policies.

And so a pattern emerged over the years of a two-faced Joe Biden showing support for Israel while in the public venue, but criticizing Israel's leaders and actions in private conversations not meant for public consumption. Embracing the art of “double speak” when it's to his political advantage, Biden recently reiterated his past words said that, “the Jewish State has a right to self-defense.” What are true words in every sense have now become but hollow words for Biden, as witnessed when soon after Iran's drone and missile attack on Israel, he tempered down those nine important words by saying that in any retaliation Israel undertakes that, “Israel must protect Iranian civilian lives.”

And so Joe Biden...who like Obama...cares more about Iranian lives than he does about Israeli lives, doesn't see that Israel is basically now fighting a “two front” war...a war they never wanted...a war that if Iran does not back down could, in time, turn nuclear dirty. And if Iran decides to go that route Biden best know that “collateral damage” will be high, and that diplomacy that might have worked... especially with a “different” president at America's helm... will most assuredly not work now.

So if “collateral damage” is something Biden really doesn't want...whether it be Palestinian or Iranian...the answer is simply to stand strong and united with Israel or keep your big mouth shut. Remember, the best one can hope for in any war is that when the fighting ends it's the “good guys” that won and that the “bad guys” lost, but for Obama's puppet it seems he wants it to be the other way around.

Why so? Since Hamas' October 7, 2023 savage attack on Israeli civilians, Biden has vacillated back and forth as to how Israel has responded. And while Israel has done what needs to be done, all seemed to reach a head when back in late March, Biden tried to “play tough” with Netanyau by laying down a “red line” that his actions in Gaza were “over the top,” and that he dare not cross into Rafah to remove the last “vestiges” of Hamas. Saying doing so would “risk killing more civilians” and create more problems in delivering “humanitarian assistance,” what Biden ignores is the fact that maybe, for now, no “assistance” will be allowed to go into Gaza. And why...because a “humanitarian crisis” is not a crisis when those needing aid are but the enemy in disguise.

And making matters worse, Biden said in a memorandum that Israel is committing “mass murder” and “war crimes” in Gaza, and that he will immediately cut off all aide to Israel unless he gets “assurance” that Israel agrees to meet “arbitrary deadlines” in regards to Gaza's “humanitarian crisis.” And yet nary a condemnation of Hamas nor their actions taken has come from the Palestinians...Palestinians still loyal to Hamas...nor did Biden mention the fate of Israeli hostages let alone the real “war crimes” committed by Hamas on “Black Saturday.”

Indoctrination and the hatred of Jews runs deep in these folks and might well take generations to overcome even when this war...as all wars do...finally ends. But for now it seems that Biden's true intentions mirrors those of Obama who recently said in an interview regarding Israel...an interview where he does say that Hamas' October 7th actions were “horrific” but added that, “Israel does need to bears responsibility” for the “unbearable occupation” of Gaza.

But what Obama willfully chooses to forget is exactly what Biden is oblivious to, as in the fact that Israel has not...I repeat not...occupied Gaza since 2005 when they withdrew all military forces and settlers from the Gaza “enclave.” Simply, the Palestinians fate was sealed when they willingly voted Hamas into power.

And so Joe Biden remains as he's always been...a joke on the world stage...a man who thinks he can tell Netanyahu how to run his country and fight the very war that could determine Israel's survival. No wonder Republicans continue criticizing Biden for being “insufficiently supportive” of Israel, while the Democrat party base criticizes his “tentative approach” to what they deem to be a Palestinian “human rights crisis.” A crisis of the Palestinians own creation...a crisis only they can fix. No excuses, no sympathy from me...case closed.

Op-ed:
Obama and Holder...brothers in racism...brothers in hate
By: Diane Sori


AG Eric Holder and the infamous DOJ are mulling over whether to file civil rights charges against George Zimmerman for his killing of Trayyon Martin in self-defense.  Mulling it over and spending our taxpayer dollars on a useless fishing expedition in hopes of finding anything NO matter how insignificant just so he can charge Zimmerman with a fabricated 'hate crime,' all while completely ignoring the fact that the FBI thoroughly investigated the incident and concluded that NO racial bias or animosity was involved...NO racial profiling...NO targeting based on race...NO nothing.

And he's doing this because, I believe, Eric Holder hates white people...as in an in-your-face hatred of the white race simply because he still holds us accountable for slavery...for slavery that was over and done with here in America over a century and a half ago before anyone alive today was born. 

Eric Holder is fixated on this one chapter in our great nations history that happened so long ago...forgetting the simple fact that slavery for the most part was perpetrated by blacks on blacks.  Holder refuses to accept the fact that even after the European slave traders began shipping black slaves to America, most slave traders dealt in just that...trade... NOT in the barbaric corralling of people (made famous in Roots), because for the most part the European slave traders did NOT need to use any force to get their slaves. The slaves were 'sold' by their black owners and black tribal leaders (black on black slavery was an integral but grossly unreported on part of African history for centuries).  In fact, estimates show that about 12,000,000 Africans were sold by African blacks to European slave traders.

So Eric Holder needs to place the guilt for the start of slavery where it truly belongs...on his own ancestors NOT on the whites he so loves to hate.  And in NO way am I excusing what happened here in America while slavery was in fashion...it's just that he cannot keep holding today's white Americans responsible for what happened to his ancestors so many years ago...and he cannot be allowed to take that hatred out on a man found NOT guilty by a jury of his peers, done in an adjudication as per our laws.

And while Eric Holder continues to spew his race-baiting hatred, yesterday Barack HUSSEIN Obama called on Americans to respect the verdict handed down in the Zimmerman trial...and he should have left it at that..but NO...he had to start comparing himself to Trayvon Martin.

Trying to deflect attention off  his infamous comment that laid the ground work for all the racism involved in the Zimmerman case when he said, "If I had a son he'd look like Trayon," yesterday Obama said, "Trayvon Martin could have been me 35 years ago".  So, is Obama admitting he was a thug 35 years ago, just like Trayvon Martin was when he was killed...just wondering...

Seriously though, his next comment just adds more fuel to the racial fire.

"There are very few African-American men who haven't had the experience of being followed in a department store — that includes me," Obama said.  Oh really...so what Obama is saying is that the vast majority of young black men in this country have been racially profiled, targeted, and followed simply because they are black.  And to that I say bull, because if that was the case there would have been a lot more George Zimmerman type incidents going way back, and that is just NOT the case.

Continuing on and saying that African Americans view the Zimmerman case through "a set of experiences and a history that doesn't go away," Barack HUSSEIN Obama just threw a log on the fire of racism for he was eluding to the very hatred that Eric Holder feeds on.

This miserable excuse of a president deliberately brought the Zimmerman case full circle back to racism NOT because racism was ever involved in this case but because racism is the cause de-jour for the 'small but very vocal militant black minority' even though the FBI said the case was NOT about racism...the trial judge said the case was NOT about racism...the jury said the case was NOT about racism...even the prosecutors said the case was NOT about racism...but the likes of Barack HUSSEIN Obama and Eric Holder, along with their outwardly racist buddies Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson, like to make every case, every perceived wrong, every word spoken about NOTHING but racism.

And when Obama said that he and his White House staff were “bouncing around ideas” about racial profiling and were calling for a review of Florida’s 'Stand Your Ground' laws, a light bulb should have gone off in every patriotic Americans mind.  A light bulb moment when reality set in that Barack HUSSEIN Obama is NOT only butting into what should have been a local city's issue but butting into a state's rights.  Ignoring our Constitutional defined balance of power, Obama has now just told the American people that if a particular state's laws do NOT meet with his agenda he will overstep his presidential bounds and work towards getting said law repealed.

And that my friends is a very scary thought indeed along with being a willful misuse of power.  But NOT to worry...his good buddy Eric Holder will find, in a hastily arranged independent investigation done to sooth the masses psyche, that NO misuse of power was done. After all they will cover each others backs against their self-perceived racist white population that profiles, targets, and follows all young black men...for hate and instigation is their racist calling card...expiration date at this time unknown.

Op-ed: 
'Stand Your Ground', racism, and Eric Holder 
By: Diane Sori

George Zimmerman has been found NOT guilty in the self-defense shooting of Trayvon Martin yet two very important ramifications have occurred because off this verdict.

First, while this case was NEVER about 'Stand Your Ground'...it was always a case about self-defense...Barack HUSSEIN Obama and crew tried to make it just that so they could use the tie-in to work towards getting Florida’s ‘Stand Your Ground’ law repealed…which is something Obama desperately wants as doing so would accomplish what his failed gun control law couldn’t…that is disarm ‘We the the People’ because if Florida’s ‘Stand Your Ground’ law is repealed the other 30 states that have a form of this law will also most likely face repeal.

Passed by the Florida legislature in 2005, ‘Stand Your Ground’ allows Floridians to use, if necessary, deadly force in cases of self-defense when they believe their lives are at risk or their person is at risk of severe bodily harm. But the main difference between ‘Stand Your Ground’ and what’s known as ‘common-law self-defense’ is the matter of ‘retreat’. While ‘Stand Your Ground’ removed the necessity to ‘retreat’ (pull back), ‘common-law self-defense’ does require an individual to ‘retreat’ if it’s safe to do so to avoid violence, especially to avoid the need to use deadly force.

So simply, ‘Stand Your Ground’ means that a person may justifiably use deadly force in self-defense if there’s a reasonable belief of a threat being made against their life or person without having to pull back first, and ‘common-law self-defense means you must pull back if you can.

Thirty states besides Florida have some form of ‘Stand Your Ground’ laws, including those that have adopted the so-called companion Castle Doctrine statutes (a legal doctrine that states a person’s home is where the use of force, including deadly force to defend against an intruder is allowed, and where one is free from legal responsibility or prosecution for the consequences of any force used), and three other states are considering either ‘Stand Your Ground’ or Castle Doctrine laws of their own.

So take away the right to defend yourself or your home from 34 states and ‘We the People’ are in deep trouble.

Second, isn’t it odd that suddenly ‘Stand Your Ground’ is in the forefront since the ‘small but vocal, militant black minority’ didn’t get the verdict they wanted against George Zimmerman. And isn’t it odd that those peacefully protesting and even those NOT so peacefully protesting are overlooking that the media willfully turned what should have been a simple self-defense case into OJ revisited.

And isn’t it quite hypocritical that those who are using this case for race-baiting...those like Barack HUSSEIN Obama, Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, Louis Farrakhan, and their ilk…happily looked away when a totally guilty black man accused of killing two white people walked with a verdict of NOT guilty. Where was the outrage for everyone knew OJ was guilty, the evidence was there ten-fold, yet through legal wrangling he was found NOT guilty simply because the media turned the case into an issue of race and racial inequality.

And ‘supposed’ racial inequality is the calling card of vile men like Jesse Jackson who said on FOX News right before the verdict was read that he would only accept a verdict of second-degree murder or manslaughter. Guess what Jesse, we don’t give a damn what you will or won’t accept.

And yesterday one of the biggest racists of them all, Attorney General Eric Holder, calling the shooting death of black teenager Trayvon Martin “tragic and unnecessary,” had the audacity to say on national television that since the trial in Florida failed to serve justice, he and the DOJ would continue to investigate the evidence in this case as a civil rights case of racial hatred NO matter that the jury verdict was already adjudicated…as in George Zimmerman according to our rules of law was found NOT guilty of all charges by a jury of his peers, but the jury verdict be damned as this was NOT the verdict he and his racist ilk wanted.

Placating Obama’s allies and echoing the NAACP accusations that the verdict was an “outrage,” Holder will cater to the ‘small but very vocal militant black minority’…the very ones who if any verdict comes down against any black person…even if they are guilty…yells racism. Claiming George Zimmerman ‘supposedly’ criminally violated the civil rights of Trayvon Martin, Holder could care less that right after the shooting the FBI investigated and found NO evidence of racial bias or that a hate crime of any kind had been committed.

And by his saying that ‘justice for Trayvon may still be possible’ Holder is deliberately and with malice saying the jury reached the wrong verdict and he will make sure the right verdict, according to him and his racist ilk, is handed down…and this makes a mockery of our judicial system for Eric Holder has now crossed the line and is overstepping his bounds by violating the civil rights of George Zimmerman.

Thankfully, winning a federal criminal civil rights case is NOT easy for two reasons…first, the DOJ will have to prove that Zimmerman acted out of hatred for Trayvon Martin, someone he didn’t know, strictly because of Trayvon’s race. and two, by finding George Zimmerman NOT guilty of second-degree murder, the jury rejected the charge that Zimmerman acted with ill will, spite, or hatred...the very charges Holder wants to bring against Zimmerman.

Add in that the DOJ itself has stated many times that “negligence, recklessness, mistakes, and accidents are not prosecutable under the federal criminal civil rights laws” and the bottom line becomes that Eric Holder wants more than anything for the killing of Trayvon Martin to somehow be labeled a ‘hate crime’ so he can scream racism and divide our country even more…as per the agenda of his buddy Barack HUSSEIN Obama.

Sadly, in today’s America civil rights, included due process, civil liberties, and the right of being innocent until proven guilty, have now become whatever the racist ilk like Barack HUSSEIN Obama, Eric Holder, Jesse Jackson, and Al Sharpton want them to be.

And while Obama publicly says he won’t involve himself in the DOJ’s decision on whether to bring criminal civil rights charges against George Zimmerman, if you believe that I’ve got some swap land to sell you for Barack HUSSEIN Obama will indeed be the one telling Holder what to do after he sees how this plays out over the next few weeks and months…we know it, he knows we know it, and guess what…he could care less that we do.

And so we all need to stand strong with George Zimmerman for this man will be looking over his shoulder for the rest of his life, and all because he was found NOT guilty of killing a thug in self-defense...and notice NO mention of race is included in what I said.

Op-ed:                                                                                                      Court in session...and the verdict is...NOT GUILTY!!!
By: Diane Sori
Politics does indeed permeate our judicial system through the two should NEVER mix, and that was proven with George Zimmerman being rightly found NOT guilty Saturday night in a unanimous decision...much to the chagrin of race-baiters Barack HUSSEIN Obama, Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, and their ilk who used Zimmerman as a pawn in their attempt to open healing racial wounds to serve their own political agendas.

Starting with overcharging George Zimmerman with second-degree murder, this case has now ignited a national debate over self-defense laws and race relations as six jurors reached a verdict that proved that sometimes a tragedy NO matter how sad it might be for a family is just NOT a crime... especially when the victim is portrayed to be something he is NOT.

George Zimmerman never denied shooting Trayvon Martin, but he said he did so in self defense. And while nobody is happy that a young man is dead, the bottom line is that Trayvon Martin was a 17-year old thug NO matter how many times the prosecution called him a 'sweet child'. Coming to light after the verdict was reached was that the prosecution knew that Trayvon had jewelery and such in his possession that clearly did NOT belong to him, yet they hid this fact from the defense until it was too late to use as the biased judge had already ruled that Trayvon's 'character' would NOT be allowed to be brought into evidence.

Nor would the truth about the Skittles and iced tea be allowed into evidence, a combination when mixed with cough syrup becomes a street drug and a cheap high (known as Purple Drank or Lean) even while knowing that both were found unopened by the police at the scene...nor were Trayvon's cell phone pics of his homegrown marijuana plants, the pics of him blowing joint smoke, the pic of his hand holding a gun, or the pics of him with his middle fingers in the air with a look on his face that was chilling...nor were his text messages with obvious racial overtones and bravado about his fighting abilities...nor was his past incident about punching a bus driver in a fit of rage.

NO...none of this would be allowed into evidence by a judge so obviously biased towards the prosecution, with an attitude so arrogant that her very demeanor was an insult to everyone in that courtroom. Judge Debra Nelson herself needs to be reprimanded a least, disbarred at best, as she ruled time and again NOT to allow defense evidence into testimony.

And in a last minute grandstand play, Judge Nelson told the jurors that in addition to the second-degree murder charge, they could also find George Zimmerman guilty of the lesser charge of manslaughter (a charge where the prosecutors only had to convince the jury that Zimmerman killed without lawful justification), but NEVER telling them that a manslaughter conviction could have George Zimmerman facing up to 30 years in prison. And earlier Saturday, showing how shocked even they were at the inclusion of this new charge, the jury sent a note to the judge requesting clarification of instructions related to manslaughter, giving credence to how seriously they were reviewing the case, and how seriously they were looking at the possibility of what many considered a compromise verdict.

Before deliberations began the jury was instructed by Judge Nelson that “Zimmerman cannot be guilty of manslaughter by committing a merely negligent act or if the killing was either justifiable or excusable homicide.” But probably a critical turning point in the jury deliberations was when Nelson refused to answer their direct question on what really was the level required for the crime of manslaughter, as her refusal allowed Nelson's constant indigent attitude to finally come to a head, and this refusal could have been a light bulb moment for the jury who might now have realized that George Zimmerman was being railroaded.

The NOT guilty verdict means the jury found that Zimmerman justifiably used deadly force, as per Florida's 'Stand Your Ground' law. They came to the conclusion that he reasonably believed that such force was "necessary to prevent imminent death or great bodily harm" to himself, which is Florida's definition of self-defense.

The charges broke down as followed: for second-degree murder the jurors would have had to believe that Martin's unlawful killing was "done from ill will, hatred, spite or an evil intent" and would be "of such a nature that the act itself indicates an indifference to human life."

To convict Zimmerman of manslaughter, the jurors would have had to believe he "intentionally committed an act or acts that caused the death of Trayvon Martin."

Thankfully, after deliberating for 16 hours, the jury came back with a verdict of NOT guilty on all charges...and that should have ended this sad case...a case that should NEVER have been brought in the first place, a case hyped by the media and instigated by Barack HUSSEIN 'If I had a son he'd look like Trayvon' Obama, Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton and their racist ilk. But instead this is what happens...even after head prosecutor Bernie De la Rionda said, "I am disappointed in the verdict but I respect it. We accept the jury's verdict"...Roslyn M. Brock, Chairman of the NAACP said that just because Zimmerman had been cleared on all charges doesn't mean that this case is over. So on Saturday night a petition was posted to the Department of Justice, asking AG Eric Holder to file civil rights charges against Zimmerman, saying there is no more fundamental civil right than the right to live.

But this case as presented by both the prosecution and the defense was NEVER a case about race or civil rights but a case about a killing done in self-defense, so the NAACP is way off base on this one. And also important to note is that soon after the killing took place the FBI did their own investigation and found NO racial bias in reference to this event.

And so while both sides did ask for peace even before the verdict was read, people like Jesse Jackson were fueling the flames of racial discontentment. On FOX News' Judge Jeanine show on Saturday night, this miserable excuse of a man said the only verdict he would accept would be second-degree murder or manslaughter, and that he would NOT be happy with anything else. First, who gives a damn what Jesse Jackson would accept, and second, his words sounded very much like a threat of violence if the verdict didn't go how he and his ilk wanted it to go.

And adding even more discontentment, big mouth, race-baiter Al Sharpton issued a statement saying, "The acquittal of George Zimmerman is a slap in the face to the American people".

NO...I don't think so as the acquittal of George Zimmerman shows that our system of justice still works in spite of the liberal left and the racial bigots trying to hijack it.

As expected after the NOT Guilty verdict came down the internet came alive with all sorts of rage against Zimmerman (and small scale rioting did break out in some cities), so much so that now George Zimmerman will have to live his life in fear of a fringe element who have said, at least in tweets and on the internet, that they 'demand' revenge for Trayvon.

One person wrote on twitter, "What kind of world do we live in where an innocent is killed, and the killer is found innocent?...America has given a free pass to murder black youth." And while many blacks believed this case was about generations of young black men being targeted, stalked, and brutalized by police, security guards, neighborhood watches and the courts NOTHING could be further from the truth as most so-called 'black innocents' are killed as a result of black-on-black crime NOT by the perceived notion that whites are after young black men.

And this is something Obama and his ilk don't want anyone to know for they'd rather condemn and accuse non-blacks, even without evidence, while they ignore the murder of their own by people by their own people. For them, feeding into the perception is more important than facts, but the fact is that 93% of blacks killed in America are killed by blacks, And the truth is that while blacks make up only 12.5% of the US population they commit nearly 40% of murders in America every year, with nearly 50% of those murder victims being black. Yet remember that blacks make up only 12.5% of the total population culminating in the sad reality that blacks kill more members of their own race every year than do all other races in America combined.

And with NO outrage within the black community about this most truthful of all sad realities, the perception of 'the white man' doing injustice to 'the black man' will continue...egged on by the likes of Barack HUSSEIN Obama, Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, and their ilk, because racial divide serves their purposes of bringing America to her knees oh so well.

And through George Zimmerman...a now officially adjudicated innocent man...all their racism, bigotry, and hate will funnel as they work towards their goal of starting a race war here in America.

Nor would the truth about the Skittles and iced tea be allowed into evidence, a combination when mixed with cough syrup becomes a street drug and a cheap high (known as Purple Drank or Lean) even while knowing that both were found unopened by the police at the scene...nor were Trayvon's cell phone pics of his homegrown marijuana plants, the pics of him blowing joint smoke, the pic of his hand holding a gun, or the pics of him with his middle fingers in the air with a look on his face that was chilling...nor were his text messages with obvious racial overtones and bravado about his fighting abilities...nor was his past incident about punching a bus driver in a fit of rage.

NO...none of this would be allowed into evidence by a judge so obviously biased towards the prosecution, with an attitude so arrogant that her very demeanor was an insult to everyone in that courtroom. Judge Debra Nelson herself needs to be reprimanded a least, disbarred at best, as she ruled time and again NOT to allow defense evidence into testimony.

And in a last minute grandstand play, Judge Nelson told the jurors that in addition to the second-degree murder charge, they could also find George Zimmerman guilty of the lesser charge of manslaughter (a charge where the prosecutors only had to convince the jury that Zimmerman killed without lawful justification), but NEVER telling them that a manslaughter conviction could have George Zimmerman facing up to 30 years in prison. And earlier Saturday, showing how shocked even they were at the inclusion of this new charge, the jury sent a note to the judge requesting clarification of instructions related to manslaughter, giving credence to how seriously they were reviewing the case, and how seriously they were looking at the possibility of what many considered a compromise verdict.

Before deliberations began the jury was instructed by Judge Nelson that “Zimmerman cannot be guilty of manslaughter by committing a merely negligent act or if the killing was either justifiable or excusable homicide.” But probably a critical turning point in the jury deliberations was when Nelson refused to answer their direct question on what really was the level required for the crime of manslaughter, as her refusal allowed Nelson's constant indigent attitude to finally come to a head, and this refusal could have been a light bulb moment for the jury who might now have realized that George Zimmerman was being railroaded.

The NOT guilty verdict means the jury found that Zimmerman justifiably used deadly force, as per Florida's 'Stand Your Ground' law. They came to the conclusion that he reasonably believed that such force was "necessary to prevent imminent death or great bodily harm" to himself, which is Florida's definition of self-defense.

The charges broke down as followed: for second-degree murder the jurors would have had to believe that Martin's unlawful killing was "done from ill will, hatred, spite or an evil intent" and would be "of such a nature that the act itself indicates an indifference to human life."

To convict Zimmerman of manslaughter, the jurors would have had to believe he "intentionally committed an act or acts that caused the death of Trayvon Martin."

Thankfully, after deliberating for 16 hours, the jury came back with a verdict of NOT guilty on all charges...and that should have ended this sad case...a case that should NEVER have been brought in the first place, a case hyped by the media and instigated by Barack HUSSEIN 'If I had a son he'd look like Trayvon' Obama, Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton and their racist ilk. But instead this is what happens...even after head prosecutor Bernie De la Rionda said, "I am disappointed in the verdict but I respect it. We accept the jury's verdict"...Roslyn M. Brock, Chairman of the NAACP said that just because Zimmerman had been cleared on all charges doesn't mean that this case is over. So on Saturday night a petition was posted to the Department of Justice, asking AG Eric Holder to file civil rights charges against Zimmerman, saying there is no more fundamental civil right than the right to live.

But this case as presented by both the prosecution and the defense was NEVER a case about race or civil rights but a case about a killing done in self-defense, so the NAACP is way off base on this one. And also important to note is that soon after the killing took place the FBI did their own investigation and found NO racial bias in reference to this event.

And so while both sides did ask for peace even before the verdict was read, people like Jesse Jackson were fueling the flames of racial discontentment. On FOX News' Judge Jeanine show on Saturday night, this miserable excuse of a man said the only verdict he would accept would be second-degree murder or manslaughter, and that he would NOT be happy with anything else. First, who gives a damn what Jesse Jackson would accept, and second, his words sounded very much like a threat of violence if the verdict didn't go how he and his ilk wanted it to go.

And adding even more discontentment, big mouth, race-baiter Al Sharpton issued a statement saying, "The acquittal of George Zimmerman is a slap in the face to the American people".

NO...I don't think so as the acquittal of George Zimmerman shows that our system of justice still works in spite of the liberal left and the racial bigots trying to hijack it.

As expected after the NOT Guilty verdict came down the internet came alive with all sorts of rage against Zimmerman (and small scale rioting did break out in some cities), so much so that now George Zimmerman will have to live his life in fear of a fringe element who have said, at least in tweets and on the internet, that they 'demand' revenge for Trayvon.

One person wrote on twitter, "What kind of world do we live in where an innocent is killed, and the killer is found innocent?...America has given a free pass to murder black youth." And while many blacks believed this case was about generations of young black men being targeted, stalked, and brutalized by police, security guards, neighborhood watches and the courts NOTHING could be further from the truth as most so-called 'black innocents' are killed as a result of black-on-black crime NOT by the perceived notion that whites are after young black men.

And this is something Obama and his ilk don't want anyone to know for they'd rather condemn and accuse non-blacks, even without evidence, while they ignore the murder of their own by people by their own people. For them, feeding into the perception is more important than facts, but the fact is that 93% of blacks killed in America are killed by blacks, And the truth is that while blacks make up only 12.5% of the US population they commit nearly 40% of murders in America every year, with nearly 50% of those murder victims being black. Yet remember that blacks make up only 12.5% of the total population culminating in the sad reality that blacks kill more members of their own race every year than do all other races in America combined.

And with NO outrage within the black community about this most truthful of all sad realities, the perception of 'the white man' doing injustice to 'the black man' will continue...egged on by the likes of Barack HUSSEIN Obama, Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, and their ilk, because racial divide serves their purposes of bringing America to her knees oh so well.

And through George Zimmerman...a now officially adjudicated innocent man...all their racism, bigotry, and hate will funnel as they work towards their goal of starting a race war here in America.
