The Messiah of the pro-war left, Barack Obama, recently took to Twitter after the race riots in Virginia to quote Nelson Mandela in a condemnation of racism. The tweet, however, was much more likely a clever act of opportunism to galvanize the fascist left in their own perceived racial struggles against Donald Trump. It worked and, subsequently, Obama’s tweet became the most-liked tweet in Twitter’s short history.
One could go on and on about Obama’s history with race and racism. His entire adolescence, college and political career was utterly obsessed with it, as his book Dreams From My Father alludes to. But the irony of Obama’s tweets have nothing to do with Obama’s own sordid history with race and racism throughout his life and tenure as President but in the fact that he chose to quote Nelson Mandela in his opportunistic comment about the tragic Charlottesville clown show.
“No one is born hating another person because of the color of his skin or his background or his religion . . .” Obama tweeted. Fair enough. But they don’t grow up killing innocent people in foreign countries either.
According to TASS online, the irony of Obama’s tweet was not lost on Russian Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zhakarova, who wrote that the tweet had “an excellent beginning, though a bit belated.” She noted that there is another quote by Nelson Mandela that Obama should tweet, “better late than never.”
“No country can claim to be the policeman of the world and no state can dictate to another what it should do,” she quoted.
“Those that yesterday were friends of our enemies have the gall today to tell me not to visit my brother Gaddafi. They are advising us to be ungrateful and forget our friends of the past,” she added, the statement having been another quote from Mandela.
In her own words, Zhakarova stated, “Mister Obama, a person was killed with your direct involvement whom Nelson Mandela called his brother and thanked for help in gaining democracy. True democracy and not the one invented in the Oval Office.”
We don’t expect any tweet of the full Mandela quote to ever appear on Obama’s feed nor do we expect anything other than grandstanding and instigation to come from the disgraced former President’s account. But while those liking Obama’s tweet are most likely busy attacking Trump for not pretending violence was committed by only one side and only condemning Nazis and White Nationalists three times over, it would be nice if they could at least bring themselves to acknowledge the hundreds of thousands of deaths that have taken place as a direct result of their fearless leader, a large portion of them being people of color. But we won’t be holding our breath for that either . . .

Let us not forget the 100s of black Libyans who were lynched by light skinned rebels during the overthrow of Gaddafi.
It was not only this person, Mr. Obama,who betrayed Gaddafi, the South African leader called Zuma also betrayed him by voting with the Commonwealth agreeing to NATO bombing the beautiful country of Libya. Zuma is a puppet and servant of The Crown in London. So was Mandela ! Mandela betrayed the African people generally and the South African Black people particularly, and his own tribe the Xkosa most egregiously. The Xkosa, Mandela’s own tribe, in their own country of The Transkei
had complete independence and freedom until Mandela “took power! in South AFrica. They owned their own land AND the minerals under their Earth. As soon as Mandela took over they lost it ALL. Now they no longer own their land or the minerals underground. No part of South Africa is any longer a sovereign country. It is owned by a corporation called “The Republic of South Africa” which is listed on the NYSE and the prospectus of that corporation in which anyone can buy shares, lists the minerals underground as “the mineral resources.” and the people ae listed as “the human resources.” In other words, the people are OWNED by that corporation or business just as the minerals are!
The old apartheid South Africa was so much better, so much more human and kind!
Yep, the Africans may have been second citizen but at least there was a set of laws and order for the countries. It’s a free for all now with the black leaders stuffing their pockets and caring less about the natives cultures . The NWO loves it that way .
The murderous reign of terror from Obama made General Lee – look like a Saint.
You have got it all wrong. When the government murders it is OK. BTW sheeple: the reign of terror from Obama is NOTHING like what Bush 2 did in the middle east.
Didn’t Obama escalate just about every metric in the middle east — drone murders, terrorism, etc?
Bush the Chimp was in on 911. He has a couple million murders on his tab.
“You have got it all wrong.??
When the “government murders”
it is OK” ??
Then why did US go to Lybia claiming gadaffi is killing his own people?
You mean “When YOUR government murders it is OK”?
The hipocracy of our evil rulers is obscene. They call us racists while they mass murder people around the globe, and we are targeted for genocide, through poisoned food air and water.
Fact, my friend: Roosevelt set us all up for this hell-on-Earth three generations back. In 1933 he did theFoul Deed, when, post-inauguration, he promptly consigned the Rest of Us into the pool of officially-defined Enemies of the State under his (ShadowGov-mandated) update to the “Trading with the Enemy” Act of 1917.
Which incidentally attempted to abolish COMMON LAW. But to hell with THAT purported abolishment, sez Yours Truly.
Resource: Just hit http://duckduckgo.com and copy+paste [ “Trading with the Enemy” act Roosevelt citizens ] (without the brackets, thank’ee) into the Search Box. Follow the threads… You shall soon grasp the Intentionally Non-Graspable Forbidden Truth of it ALL.
The truth your Civics and American Government instructors were made to DELETE from the CURRICULUM under Bush’s “No Child Left Standing” Common Core program is RIGHT THERE – IF you will HAVE it.
Disgusting situation we were all born into, ayup. Clearly in need of CORRECTION. COERCIVE CORRECTION if needs be… Sure as street-snitches get stitches, the traitors deserve NOOSES and a proper, Lawfully-mandated DROP-HANGING imvho. (Walking Turtle for Republic Hangman – VOTE NOW!)
Ballots fer sure, but the nooses are not for nothing. Bullets when called-for and NO MORE TOP-DOWN ASTROTURF BULLSHIT, NO Matter What. And that is all. 0{;-|o[
Lets face the facts that there is more than enough racism to go around for everybody and that this fault line in human society is a time tested proven way for those who would wish to divide and conquer. If the public can’t put racism behind then we are just another failed species and those that would will use this against us for their own gain and everyone else’s loss..
That was brutal, as someone who cried when President Obama elected. Thanks for bringing the whole truth to my attention, the way they had Ghadaffi killed by being anally raped with a knife. World’s a harsh place, I guess we have to only trust ourselves in the end.
Obama is referring to whites and blacks of his liking. The Rest in his eyes are not human therefore they have only slave status and subject to his disposal.
