Said Clooney of Obama: “It’s amazing to sit down with a world leader who knows all of the intricacies of what’s going on in Sudan,” he said.
So why has the cat suddenly appeared to have gotten the actor’s tongue? Was one of those “intricacies of what’s going on in Sudan” the involvement of the President’s own brother with the “war criminal” leadership Clooney so strongly opposed? Not a word from Clooney. Why?
The problem comes when the IRS scandal erupts — and, as discussed here, we find that Lois Lerner zipped through the tax exempt status — even backdating it — of the Barack H. Obama Foundation run by the President’s Kenyan half-brother Malik Obama. The very same Malik Obama who is the Executive Secretary of the Islamic Da’wa Organization (IDO) — which held its 2010 conference in…Khartoum. The Sudan. A conference held in Sudan’s capital because, of course, the IDO is a creature of its behind-the-scenes power — George Clooney’s favorite war criminal, Sudan’s President Omar Bashir.
So where is George Clooney now? Where are all those people who made a point of loudly getting arrested with George and his Dad at the Sudanese Embassy?
Where are, as that ABC story identified them, the “President of United to End Genocide and former Congressman Tom Andrews; Congressmen Jim McGovern, D-MA, Al Green, D-TX, Jim Moran, D-VA., and John Olver D-MA; Martin Luther King III, NAACP President Ben Jealous; and Enough Project Co-Founder John Prendergast”?
Are they getting themselves arrested outside of the IRS? Are they demanding the IRS revoke the tax exemption of the Barack H. Obama Foundation because of the connection of Malik Obama to Omar Bashir, the man these liberals correctly call a war criminal?
What does one do when one has to choose between embarrassing President Obama, whom you’ve hosted at your home for a $15 million fundraiser with the Hollywood elite — or shutting of an IRS tax exemption run by an ally of President Bashir, the man you call a “war criminal”?
Well what do you think?
Mr. Clooney has been silent. So too has that silence suddenly overtaken the long list of supposedly anti-Bashir liberals that features four sitting members of Congress, the namesake son of Martin Luther King Jr., the President of the NAACP, plus two anti-Bashir activists.
Why is this?
Apparently, they are more concerned with not embarrassing the American President than doing something to rein in the ally of the war criminal Sudanese President.
Gee, why embarrass a war criminal if it also embarrasses your favorite dinner guest?
Let’s take a look at the man Malik Obama is associating with. And as usual on this subject we will turn to Walid Shoebat and Ben Barrack from the Shoebat Foundation. Mr. Shoebat, recall, is the one-time radicalized member of the Muslim Brotherhood turned peace activist. He is the son of an American mother and a Palestinian Arab and, having grown up in the Middle East, is well familiar with the Arab media.
And again, let’s stay focused in discussing this not on the foreign policy aspects involved with the President’s brother and Sudan — but on the IRS. Stay focused on the fact that one group after another were yanked around for years by Lerner and her agency while a speedy 28 days was all that was needed to give a thumbs up to Barack Obama’s brother — with no attention whatsoever paid to Malik Obama’s relationships to the man George Clooney has spent so much time trying to unhorse.
Let’s quote directly from Shoebat and Ben Barrack:
