Are Nazi comparisons to IRS and Obama's associates finally warranted?

When the Internal Revenue Service Scandal (IRSS) broke, it was reported that conservative groups (capitalists) were targeted specifically for harassment. Perhaps more chilling than that was soon thereafter reported; Jewish groups were not only targeted but asked to explain any support for Israel.

Via the Jewish Press (h/t NRO):

And at least one purely religious Jewish organization, one not focused on Israel, was the recipient of bizarre and highly inappropriate questions about Israel.  Those questions also came from the same non-profit division of the IRS at issue for inappropriately targeting politically conservative groups. The IRS required that Jewish organization to state “whether [it] supports the existence of the land of Israel,” and also demanded the organization “[d]escribe [its] religious belief system toward the land of Israel.”

Godwin's law, established in 1990, refers to the injection of Hitler / Nazis into any political debate. Taken further, when someone does this, Godwin's law states that he / she automatically loses the argument.

It states:

"As an online discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving Nazis or Hitler approaches one."

When it comes to the actions and affiliations of Barack Obama, breaking Godwin's law may be counter-intuitive but it may be warranted.

Frank Marshall Davis: A childhood mentor of Barack Obama was a member of the Communist Party USA (CPUSA) did not leave the party even after Adolf Hitler and Josef Stalin signed the pact that precipitated the holocaust.

William Ayers: Founder of the Weather Underground and friend of Barack Obama who shared an office with the president for at least three years in the 1990's. According to the sworn testimony of Larry Grathwohl, the only man to successfully infiltrate the Underground for the FBI, Ayers wanted to send 'capitalists' to re-education centers and 'eliminate' (kill) '25 million' people 'who could not be re-educated'.

Isn't the mass murder of specific groups of people based on beliefs / ideology part of Nazism?



Jeremiah Wright: Barack Obama's anti-Semitic pastor who published the manifesto of Hamas leader Mousa Abu Marzook in his church's newsletter. Hamas is an offshoot of the Muslim Brotherhood, which allied with Hitler in World War II. In fact, the man Hitler allied with during the war - Hajj Amin al-Husseini - was the grand mufti of Jerusalem at the time. He became the head of the Muslim Brotherhood after the war.

Rashid Khalidi: Columbia University professor and friend of Barack Obama. Khalidi was once a mouthpiece for Yasser Arafat's Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO). Arafat is known to have been an early protege of none other than Hitler ally, al-Husseini. Like he did with Ayers, Wright, and Davis, Obama  attempted to downplay his relationship with Khalidi:

Kermit Gosnell: As the guilty verdicts in the trial of this abortionist make clear, mass genocide was committed within the walls of his abortuary. His trial is not that dissimilar from what a microcosm of a Nuremberg trial would have been like. Yet, Obama supports much of what went on inside that clinic. Babies who survived botched abortions were murdered. At least one woman died as well. The severed feet of babies was found inside jars inside Gosnell's clinic. Despite the gruesome details, Barack Obama attended a Planned Parenthood event and closed by saying, 'God Bless you'.

Now it's been learned that under the Obama administration, his IRS targeted Jewish groups. Perhaps that should lead to a discussion about Kristallnacht (night of broken glass), during which Nazis descended on Jewish neighborhoods and shattered the windows of Jewish storefronts:

In the first half of 1938, numerous laws were passed restricting Jewish economic activity and occupational opportunities. In July, 1938, a law was passed (effective January 1, 1939) requiring all Jews to carry identification cards. On October 28, 17,000 Jews of Polish citizenship, many of whom had been living in Germany for decades, were arrested and relocated across the Polish border. The Polish government refused to admit them so they were interned in "relocation camps" on the Polish frontier.

Among the deportees was Zindel Grynszpan, who had been born in western Poland and had moved to Hanover, where he established a small store, in 1911. On the night of October 27, Zindel Grynszpan and his family were forced out of their home by German police. His store and the family's possessions were confiscated and they were forced to move over the Polish border.

Zindel Grynszpan's seventeen-year-old son, Herschel, was living with an uncle in Paris. When he received news of his family's expulsion, he went to the German embassy in Paris on November 7, intending to assassinate the German Ambassador to France. Upon discovering that the Ambassador was not in the embassy, he settled for a lesser official, Third Secretary Ernst Von Rath. Von Rath, was critically wounded and died two days later, on November 9.

The assassination provided Joseph Goebbels, Hitler's Chief of Propaganda, with the excuse he needed to launch a pogrom against German Jews.

It should be clear that when one discusses the relationships, intentions, and actions of Barack Obama's associates and at least one entity under his charge (the IRS), Godwin's law does not apply.

Analysis of the Oversight Committee hearing on Benghazi.

Anthony, TX: Where TWO of Hillary's most problematic Filmmakers are locked up

The anti-Muhammad filmmaker - Nakoula Basseley Nakoula - currently sits in a federal prison in West Texas. So does another thorn in Hillary Clinton's side. His name is Peter Paul. That two of Hillary's most problematic individuals are locked up in the same federal prison is indeed worth a look, especially since Paul is serving a sentence that is longer than what the maximum sentence for his crime allows.

If there was a single individual who came out of the May 8th Benghazi hearings looking worse than anyone else, it was former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. The number two man in Libya - before Ambassador Christopher Stevens was murdered - was Gregory Hicks. During his testimony, all signs pointed to the buck needing to stop at the very top of the State Department. Cheryl Mills, Hillary's Chief of Staff, was named as a key player in what is to objective eyes, a cover-up.

Barack Obama doesn't exactly have a reputation for telling the truth but when he referred to Nakoula Basseley Nakoula - the alleged man behind the anti-Muhammad video blamed for the 9/11/12 Benghazi attacks - as a 'shadowy character', Obama said something truthful. While the alleged filmmaker's past associations should certainly raise more eyebrows than they currently do, Nakoula is seemingly being kept in the shadows by the administration.

No one could have accurately predicted that an obscure YouTube video Nakoula was involved in producing would be a central component in the cover-up of the Benghazi attacks. On September 14th, just three days after the attacks, then Secretary of State Hillary Clinton allegedly told the father of Tyrone Woods - the former Navy SEAL who was murdered in Benghazi - that the man behind the film would be arrested and prosecuted.

If the administration wanted Nakoula locked up not just to send a message to the Muslim world but also to prevent his story from being told, it certainly picked an interesting place to put him.

In his article the Benghazi Patsy, Rich Lowry writes:

...Nakoula was brought in for questioning by five Los Angeles County sheriff’s deputies at midnight, eventually arrested and held without bond, and finally thrown into jail for a year. He sits in La Tuna Federal Correctional Institution in Texas right now, even as the deceptive spin that blamed his video for the Benghazi attack looks more egregious by the day.

If Nakoula's story provides trouble for Hillary Clinton, the fact that he sits at the La Tuna facility is a case of history repeating itself, which leads to the story of Peter Paul, who isn't scheduled to be released until 2014. The problem with that release date is that the maximum sentence for Paul's crime is ten years and he was first jailed for his alleged white-collar crime in 2001 - in a Brazilian prison, with hardened criminals.

In short, in 2000, Paul was a Hollywood mogul and put on a star-studded gala for Bill and Hillary. For Bill, it was a farewell gala and for Hillary, it was a campaign fundraiser for her U.S. Senate run in New York. In exchange, Paul expected Bill to work for him and Stan Lee (of Marvel Comics fame) as a rainmaker for Paul's company after Bill left office.

Unfortunately for Paul, once the gala was over, the Clintons reneged and he was discarded. Unfortunately for the Clintons (Hillary in particular), Paul would not go quietly. In 2007, while under house arrest, he put together a team that produced a documentary entitled, Hillary Uncensored. For nearly a decade, he dogged Hillary relentlessly. The trailer for his video - seen below - caught fire just as Hillary's primary with Obama was heating up. In fact, in October of that year, the video was the number one viewed video on Google, garnering more than 50,000 views / day. Then, magically, on one Saturday in early November, it was no longer in Google's top 100 videos.

When all was said and done, the trailer got more than 10 Million views before Hillary conceded defeat to Obama for the nomination.

Here is that trailer:
