CODE PINK PRO-HAMAS ACTIVIST Interrupts Netanyahu in Congress …Update: She Did It Before
Posted by Jim Hoft on Tuesday, May 24, 2011, 11:42 AM
The Code Pink pro-Hamas Marxists interrupted Netanyahu again this morning in Congress.
Congress, including Democrats, gave the Israeli leader several standing ovations.

The radical pro-Hamas group already released a statement.
During the Joint Session of Congress while Prime Minister Netanyahu was speaking, Rae Abileah stood up from the gallery and shouted “Stop Israeli War Crimes.”
From the peace group CODEPINK, Rae is a 28 yr. old Jewish American of Israeli descent. She has traveled to Israel, the West Bank and Gaza and witnessed firsthand the reality of occupation and oppression. “Prime Minister Netanyahu says that the 1967 borders are indefensible. But what is really indefensible is the occupation of land, the starvation of Gaza, the jailing of dissenters and the lack of equal rights in the alleged Israeli democracy. As a Jew and an American taxpayer, I can’t be silent when these crimes are being committed in my name and with my tax money.”
Ms. Abileah grew up on Half Moon Bay and presently lives in San Francisco. She was arrested and charged with disrupting Congress. Upon release, she can be reached at 415-994-1723.
So… Which democrat gave their ticket today to Code Pink?
UPDATE: The Code Pink protester Rae Abileah interrupted Netanyahu’s speech at an event in New Orleans.
Then she whined about how she was treated.
What a horrible loon.

We need someone of Netanyahu caliber here in the US. You know, someone who will ‘serve, protect and defend’.

Seriously. Go try that in Iran.

Old Fan commented:
So Obama, the Obama Administration, the Democratic Party, is now unilaterally bombing and waging war throughout the Globe, and Code Pink is protesting Netanyahu?
LOL !
It could not be more transparent, what a delusional partisan “con”, these Democratic Partisans are utter frauds – totally lost in their fashionable bigotry.
Where is the protest against Secretary Clinton? Who is waging an illegal war overseas? Where are the marches with the orange suits and the black hoods, to represent GIMTO detainees? What happened to the demands to see the coffins of OUR BRAVEST coming home from the various Military Campaigns provided by the Obama Team?
retire05 commented:
Rae Abileah gives clear cut meaning to “self loathing Jew.” But for all of you who think that the people of Gaza are starving due to the sea blocade by Israel, ask yourself this: if Gaza borders Egypt, why is there a problem getting aid to the Gazans? Oh, that’s right; Egypt is blocking the aid from their side of the Egypt/Gazan border. Egypt also prevents Gazans from entering into Egypt. You see, even some Arabs understand how radical and crazy Palestinians are.
But to be fair, please view the pictures of Gazan poverty on this site:

Please, link to Tom Gross Media and scroll down the entire page. It is a real eye opener to the plight of the Gazans, complete with Tony Blair’s sister-in-law doing her shopping in a Gazan grocery store.

What’s wrong with security? How did these morons get in?
Ricky Vines commented:
I was watching the speech and was worried that the PM will yield too much for peace. Those who believe that the Obama initiatives are about peace need only to remember Obamacare and Pelosi’s “We have to pass it to know what’s in it.” Now we know that Obamacare is has death panels and abortion funding contrary to the assurances and ineffective waivers. Worse, it circumvented the usual budgeting processes by having billions already allocated in the law so Congress cannot defund it.
With Israel, we’re dealing with blood and the last haven of safety of the Jewish people, of a land that is truly, legally and justly theirs. But the Palestinians won’t stop even if they they get another state in addition to Jordan. It is because, it is not about statehood or a contiguous territory. It is about the denial of the right of Israel to exist. That conviction stems from Islam and will be there as long as Islam will stick to the Quranic beliefs and injunctions. In short, they will never be satisfied until the state of Israel is nullified and the Jewish people will have to be under them in their new Palestinian state.
I just hope Code Pink with their Liberal Jewish members never get any political clout to compromise the safety of Israel by their naivete and false guilt.
Redwine commented:
“So… Which democrat gave their ticket today to Code Pink?”
Barack Insane O’Bama, the rep from Ireland.
Big L commented:
Commie-sympathsizer gave the ticket. Good thing these people aren’t armed, or is that what happens next?
Also, please redact the beeyatch’s phone nr.
Claire commented:
Hateful comments. and for someone to pretend to be the courageous Rachel Corrie, who was smashed (accidentally?) by Israeli tank, YOU are despicable & will rot in hell. On the contrary to the Peace haters, It is everyone’s job to stand up for others when they are persecuted, defend humanity, regardless of “what side”. As a person of Jewish heritage, now a Christian, Compassion is the healing salve for all suffering. Rae & the other 5 Codepink arrestees are BRAVEN. How else might YOU support Palestinians? (NOT Hamas, that’s evil) but the Palestinian people. Whether Arabic/Muslim fanatic suicide bombers or Israeli military, Bombing schools is indefensible, bulldozing homes is indefensible. How can we resolve the conflicts is the bigger question.
C.J. Minster commented:
I think it is pathetic that people who claim to speak for worldwide Jewry applaud the mistreatment of a protester and post veiled death threats. I am a proud, practicing Jew and a CODEPINK staff member working to end the wars and bring the money home for domestic needs. We at CODEPINK are capable of challenging the US Empire on several fronts and we are able to have civil discourse with people with whom we disagree. Simply because my faith in the Divine leads me to a different political philosophy than you does not make me self hating, it makes me self knowing. If my rabbi can accept me into his congregation, who are you to cast aspersions on my religious and ethnic identity?
jimg commented:
@ Claire
Corrie stood in front of a bulldozer screaming into a megaphone. It wasn’t a tank.
And when someone stands in front of a bulldozer, the driver can’t see her and she refuses to move? She deserved exactly what she got.
And it wasn’t just some home that got bulldozed. It was a safe haven for terrorists. Terrorists who blow up innocent women and children who are guilty of committing the heinous crime of waiting for the bus.
The fact you support the brazen stupidity of Corrie, and defend the very terrorists you claim to abhor says a lot about you.
But I’ve come to expect that from people like you.
Fuzzlenutter commented:
May this disgusting, sub-human creature Rae Abileah and its ilk rot in f*cking Hell for all Eternity…
Ricky Vines commented:
I just had lunch and am having trouble keeping it down reading how the ill informed bleeding heart Jewish Liberals are paving the way for another genocide of their very own comunities as they follow Obama their Arab sponsored messiah in yet another scam called ‘Obamapeace or Israeli Suicide’
Cargosquid commented:
So, CJ….
You’re bragging that a proud, practicing Jew supports terrorist supporting, traitorous group like Code Pink. I mean, Code Pink only sent $600 thousand to the insurgents killing Americans in Iraq. Code Pink only supports HAMAS and anything that hurts Israel. Code Pink only selectively supports those factions in the world that want to damage the US and Israel. Code Pink only ridiculed wounded veterans. Code Pink only supports communists that want to overthrow America.
I’m sorry that you are so blinded by ideology.
C.J. Minster commented:
@Cargosquid, I am sorry you are so woefully misinformed about CODEPINK. We stand in solidarity with human beings around the world. We stand proudly with veterans and military families during anti-war marches. If you spoke with a member of CODEPINK about our beliefs, rather than believing doctored internet videos, you would understand that you are the one blinded by ideology.

#16, CJ Minster:
So CJ, how can you honestly say that you stand for ending the wars, when anyone with common sense, or an education, can see that you are anti-American, anti-Isreal, and anti free market Capitalism, on so many fronts?
I don’t see Code Pink protesting Obama for his war in Libya. I do see Code Pink standing with Terrorists, yes I called the Islamic extremists Terrorists. The United States and Israel do NOT target innocent civilians, in Holy Jihad, like your friends do.
Just because you might have a Tribe name doesn’t make you a real Jew.
Were you born in Israel, or have Israeli citizenship?
Do you live in Israel under the constant attacks of the Islamic Terrorists?
Or are you a citizen of the USA, and live in a comfort bubble over here, where you actually have a Constitutional right to hate your own “people”?
In my opinion, the members of Code Pink are hypocrites for living in a country that affords you the very luxuries, that allow you to try an destroy what has made the United States exceptional.
Speaking Clearly commented:
Alot of people that “claim” to practice Judaism, in the United States, believe they are Jewish.
In my opinion, the true Jewish people, are the ones living in Israel, even enduring constant attacks of terrorism, serving in its military, and protecting and defending its rightful land.
All of the anti-Isreal liberal Jews in comfortable, safe, and free America, and elsewhere, should be ashamed of themselves, for even trying to call themselves Jews.
andthenwhat? commented:
For those complaining about the phone # being published, follow the link back to Code Pink who clearly published the number as an invite to all who believe in their cause and to fish for hate calls to become enraged at. I have news for those of Jewish descent who converted to Christianity, ant-semites don’t care about where you pray, particularily those whose Jew-hatred is bred through Islam. Israel gained land (from the 1948 borders, the new Palestinian plan for a two state solution which is b.s. because…) they were attacked and then advanced on the defensive, so they would not be attacked again, it was just and until HAMAS and the PLO discontinue their dreams of wiping Israel of the map it must remain so. The Palestinian people suffer, not due to the actions of Israel, but as a consequence of their own Muslim brothers. Egypt does not open it’s border to welcome them (though the numerous tunnels used to supply the Gaza strip amount to this, unofficially-but why is it done this way?) Those in Gaza who suffer do so because Islam needs the illusion of the Jew Bogeyman to justify continuation of a war as old as Islam itself, which (obviously) began long after the Jews were driven from their land/the occupation of Israel
C.J. Minster commented:
I belong to a temple, pray three times a day and attend Shabbat services. I do not claim everyone must follow the same practices to be Jewish, since I recognize it is both an ethnicity and a religion. And I do not claim that there is one “right” way to be Jewish. To conflate Israeli citizenship with Jewish ethnicity or religious observance is a gross misinterpretation of both identities.
I stand with peace activists in Israel and around the world. I believe in nonviolent resistance to tyranny and oppression.
And by the way, even Fox News covered CODEPINK’s reaction to the bombing of Libya. We stand firmly on the side of the rule of law and skillful diplomacy.
jimg commented:
“I believe in nonviolent resistance to tyranny and oppression.”
So in other words, you’re hoping the crocodile eats you last.
Got it.
Janus Duel commented:
So much for freedom of speech, Netanyahu.
andthenwhat? commented:
You cannot be serious, as it appears that your nonviolent resistance is closer to nonexistant resistance in this case. Actually, FoxNews solicited CodePink’s ‘reaction’, as in came to you and asked directly your opinion on the matter. You begin with “even Fox News covered” suggesting that Fox does not generally cover you (untrue) and that other news sources covered it. You’re own clip merely illustrates the point, they came to you and asked you how you felt about it, and you answered with a barrage of Iraq/Afghan comments and began trying to segue into flotillas & Israel. CodePink is a propaganda front, with lots of time on their hands and (evidently) few history books to fill it with. Shall we pretend that the Iraqi people were better off under Saddam? That this so-called Arab spring would have happened without democracy there to lead the way? Are these uprisings even a good thing, seeing as they were not entirely peaceful? You protested Libya’s leader, but also protest against this? When is it ever black and white enough for Pink, when is enough enough?
Speaking Clearly commented:
CJ, if you are Jewish, then why do you, and Code Pink, side with islamic terrorists so much?
And I can’t find where you are protesting islamic terrorists on a regular basis, or ever for that matter?
Don’t you think it makes you appear disingenuous, to side with Islamic terrorists all the time, when you call yourself Jewish?
And do you believe the United States should be allowed to have its own “cultural identity” based mainly on Christianity, and grounded in free market capitalism, and not marxism, or socialism? Just wondering if you can answer this honestly?

for the record she said starving gaza.
does this look like starvation?

Andreas K. commented:
“I believe in nonviolent resistance to tyranny and oppression.”
CJ, under real tyranny and oppression, your kind is the first one that ends in the death camps.
That is a historical fact.
Which resistance, in history, against tyranny and oppression was the successful one? Hmm? Do you know that?
Hint: it was not non-violence.
It was violence.
It was not, to use WW2 for a second, the German group The White Rose, it was Stauffenberg & Co, who scared the nazis. It was not Gandhi who ended WW2 with peaceful resistance (as he demanded the British should do), it was the military with its bombs and planes.
Non-violence doesn’t work against tyranny and oppression. It’s a myth. It only worked in India because Gandhi had to deal with Great Britain and not a real fascist regime.

CJ Minster, if Code Pink loves peace so much, why do they support Hamas?
Rhinestone Suderman commented:
Why did Code Pink try to disrupt AIPAC if they truly respect others? Is it, “Freedom of speech for me, but not for thee?”
If Code Pink is so non-violent, why do they continually defend Islamic terrorists?

Code Pink is a group of pro-communist agitators. That’s all.
Looking at the photo of this girl, I’m wondering how she would do walking through Tahrir Square in Egypt on protest days–you know, those freedom-seeking demonstrations? Guess she should talk to Lara Logan before she tries it.
MamaGrizzly commented:
“I believe in nonviolent resistance to tyranny and oppression.”
Well, you are about the most naive person I’ve encountered lately. Believe in it all you want. It is an ideal. An idea. An idea that evaporates when confronted with the realities of life (and death).
I suggest you pull up all of the news and videos on the Islamic beheadings, crimes, etc. and then figure out if you want that to happen to your friends and loved ones or colleagues. Because that’s what tyranny IS. Look up the information on this family–murdered by the people you are defending.

They would do the same to you–then what would happen to your “BELIEF”?
tommy mc donnell commented:
code pink is a pro-communist organization that fronts as a pro- peace group while supporting every war waging muslim group on the planet. they are like the pro-communist peace groups from the sixties that demonstrated for peace by supporting the war waging viet cong. code pink and peace shouldn’t be mention in the same area code.
Kittenfuud commented:
CJ, I applaud you for standing firm on this unfortunately hateful thread/site. One person asked when “it would be black & white enough for you,” as if any issue is ever “black” or “white”. This illustrates my problem with the far-right, the pragmatism and the preoccupation with proving “liberals”, to put it nicely, “wrong.” IMHO they are misinformed. To “cover” that fact, they sling mud (I’ll use “mud” instead of the other word I want to use.) One poster even goes so far as to say you’re not a Jew! And that you are “whining” when you seem to me to be stating beliefs. How hateful and disrespectful of them. Did he chat with you last Tuesday over coffee? Does he attend your Temple? Shame, poster.
I honor your Jewishness. Its amazing and wonderful to me as a Christian that the Tradition of Moses is still kept so faithfully “even until the last generation”; I think too its brave of you to put yourself in this piranha pit! The only reason I am commenting at all is I was redirected to this article by a friend, read this thread and knew I had to comment to support you! Its sad that people who probably call themselves Christians–and believe they are, no insult intended, God cares for even they–are spewing this hatred; if one asked, I’ll bet a large proportion of the posters here would claim Christianity in some form. How very Christ-like of you all to post in such a manner, to dishonor one of God’s Chosen People, no less. Shame! Yes! I am judging you! I can do that through Christ! Sheesh! OK. As to FoxNews “covering” Code Pink? Oh, they may cover it alright, with a very negative spin or a “just for laffs”-type piece. ANYTHING that does not line up exactly with the right-wing’s beliefs is WRONG and this is echoed time and time again on FoxNews. “Wrong.” One will notice the right use that word a lot. I grew up with an extreme right-wing father (RIP) and I respect him. With this background of hearing “wrong” used repeatedly during Dem admins and to “suspect” media, I have come to the conclusion that the right applies this word as a reaction to something new (change is wrong, not something to be thought about), or have used this term for so long its ingrained–no matter, its still the negative path. By labeling something “wrong,” they cover their ignorance or unwillingness to actually face something new, with the definitive, catch-all statement: “WRONG!”–because they are afraid to seem out of step. I know my father was very much a patriot and believed everything he said. I also know he spewed hate like there was no tomorrow and it was all fear-based. He was afraid he might be wrong, to be out of step–even with himself. It also seems to make the right feel satisfied that they are “right”. Being “Right” is key. Black & white/left or right. Nothing in the middle. RW posters: didn’t your mothers ever give you ONE cookie when you begged for TWO? THAT is compromise; THAT is thinking beyond “No” (“wrong.”) That’s what the term “progressive” means, moving forward. The far-right seems very past-oriented and have no time for truth. They are too busy blaming somebody else.

Just like a liberal to start a comment, then go and make dinner and post it! That was in reply to a Code Pink lady who is Jewish but people didn’t believe her. Hmm. So there’s commies under my bed…again…. Sigh… Code Pink-Commie–it makes so much SENSE! Oy. And if indeed they fund terrorists, why don’t you ask HRW Bush who funded Qaddafi, or even better ask GW Bush who trained bin Laden?! What you’re really saying is that you’ve HEARD they fund terrorists, when perhaps the truth was they held a fundraiser for a mosque or something and this got translated in the right-wing papers as “funding terrorists” and so as to not get out of step they repeated it. And played with it. There is a difference between Islam and terrorism. Yes, most terrorists as we call them are Muslim, but they are of an extreme-extreme faction. The Muslim you see on the street with their family is probably not a terrorist. The Hispanic person with the family over there probably IS a Catholic! See? Duck and Cover, right-wingers!
(And Happy 70th Birthday, Bob Dylan–can we all agree on that?!)

From the pagan Roman god Janus, no less. Stormfront is pagan, too.
We less-educated (read non-Ivy League) rubes can all rest easy with clear consciences at night for our incredible social restraint, taught in the Christian culture, because it’s a FACT that if Code Pink brats tried their foaming mouth screaming convulsions in any venue in Africa, Asia or Latin America, the alarmed audience would immediately beat them senseless with the closest objects and then drag them out.
Only possessed by demons people act like that.
Not impressed with any exaggerated Code Pink luridly penned melodramas of how much danger they weren’t in.
Angeline commented:
With so many of the anti-Israel activists, its more about pathology and psychology than politics. Rae Abileah has always claimed that her Jewish father (with family in Israel) was abusive, and abandoned her family.
It seems that she is trying to get back at them with her very public temper tantrums. Perhaps therapy, rather than arrest is the answer for this clearly troubled young woman.
