Come again?
TIME Magazine editor Richard Stengel told the Morning Joe folks today that it’s just too bad that Israeli wall worked so well keeping the terrorists out of Israel.

Yes. He really said that.

Time magazine editor Richard Stengel:
“They [Israel] haven’t had a car bombing in two and a half years and the sad truth, really, is that the wall with the West Bank has actually worked. I mean, most Israelis in the course of their lives don’t come into contact with any Palestinians at all, the wall is functioning.”

Notice how liberals have really started to show their true colors over the last couple years by actually saying what they really believe. They used to lie about how they really felt. Chairman Obama has somehow given them the strength to reveal themselves.

Horrifying! I lived and worked in Israel during that period. I had to forbid my daughter from taking buses at the time for fear I’d never see her alive again. My children were afraid that they would never see me alive again, too. I was afraid to go shopping or go to a restaurant. There was a horrid bloody attack by some Palithug animals on Israeli civilians nearly every day. Thank G-d for that barrier! This amoral and repulsive Stengel is a sick POS.

Stengel is merely one of millions of typical anti-Semitic hate-filled American democrat liberals wishing death, disease, and destruction on Jews and anyone that dares oppose the elites marxist agenda.

Has anybody asked this moron whether he has read the Hamas Covenant?

So sad the Israelis don’t have to live with that constant chill up their spine that if they take the bus to work, it may deliver them to their grave. Living in a constant state of fear and anxiety is so much more interesting and morally superior than the state of bigotry represented by walls .

What is truly a shame is we cannot create a “homeland” for these leftist twits and wall *it* off from America. If I could live another 500 years and not hear one more lying word from their foul lips, it wouldn’t compensate for but 0.00001% of the verbal and literal garbage they’ve strewn in this great nation in the last 100.

Satan manifests himself in our daily lives through the tools of the left, and in islam. And that’s not just hyperbole. These are existential threats to all us infidels and apostates, and Mr. Stengel is a shameful, willing accomplice to continuing the denial of the threat mohammedens pose. The wall and its happy results are blaring testaments of the savagery of Israel’s enemies, who would undoubtedly be killing Israelis everyday if they could.

No, Mr. terrorist supporting ‘reporter’, there are 1.5 million ‘palestinian’ arabs (i.e. Israeli arab citizens) whom many Israelis encounter every single day. How many Jews do Hamass arabs encounter every day? Only the ones they kill or attempt to kill. What a shame that a dreadful wall keeps them out of Israel. Time must also be lamenting the unspoken fear that if Israel can keep murderers out of Israel, then the republicans, if they get to build a wall on the rio grande, could also successfully keep out illegal aliens. That would be tragic, racist, xenophobic, yada, yada, yada.

Dennis Prager from KRLA 870 in LA, made a movie in Israel. He interviewed the people injured by the terrorist Pali bombs. They ahve bolts in the brain and body or lost limbs. Interviewed the guard at the entrance to a restaurant, who said it was a job, and important one. His job was to thwart entry of pal bombers.
The movie is available still.

I will bet this scum lives in a fancy secure NYC apartment building with a barred entryway guarded by a button down uniformed doorman like Ralph Hart of The Jeffersons.

This is the reason Obama halted construction on our southern wall.

Wait. What?

The ‘sad truth’ is they haven’t had a car bombing in two and a half years.

There’s GOT to be more context than this. Nobody is stupid enough to say that straight up.

Sometimes there IS a black and white difference between good and evil, not just shades of gray.

oh but they are, the sad truth is some people sympathize with the Hamas cause and just like their hero Alinsky taught, the ends justify the means. Unless he follows that statement with a just playing or a “psyche” it seems pretty clear to me, “sad truth is the wall has worked”
