The Boston Marathon Bombing is NOT Resistance

The other day, professional C.T. Monger and general self hater Richard Falk (an official on the U.N.H.R.C.) managed to sustain his reputation as one of the more vile people on Plant Earth. Falk, who previously posted an anti-Semitic cartoon of a dog with the label “U.S.A”. on it, wearing a Kippah with the Magen David emblazoned on it, peeing on the symbol of liberty and justice Documented Here, managed to do himself “one better”.

Writing in Foreign Policy Journal (as reported by Haaretz and The Progressive Zionist, Falk had this to say:

The war drums are beating at this moment in relation to both North Korea and Iran, and as long as Tel Aviv has the compliant ear of the American political establishment, those who wish for peace and justice in the world should not rest easy.

and:

Now at the start of his second presidential term, it seems that Obama has given up altogether, succumbing to the Beltway ethos of Israel First.

as well as:

The American global domination project is bound to generate all kinds of resistance in the post-colonial world. In some respects, the United States has been fortunate not to experience worse blowbacks, and these may yet happen, especially if there is no disposition to rethink US relations to others in the world, starting with the Middle East.

Of course this is not the first time that the man who is Special Rapporteur to the U.N. regarding Palestinian Rights, has ventured into anti-Semitic and C.T. rhetoric. That said…. that Falk holds a position of ANY responsibility with any organization that wants to be considered reasonable is enough question the judgment of said organization.

Look at the above comments… Falk has no hesitation to smear the American political establishment with the heinous dual loyalty charge claiming that Washington only answers to Tel Aviv (hence the “compliant to Tel Aviv” comment), and that our Representatives and Senators and President are really “Israel Firsters” (more loyal to Israel than our own nation).

But then he goes on to claiming that the bombing of the crowd watching a race featuring runners from around the world (the winners were Kenyan and Ethiopian), is somehow an act of “resistance”.

Well what the hell kind of “resistance” is this? What are they “resisting”? Marathon races? People supporting running? Are they resisting a culture that promotes worldwide collaboration through sport? What next? Will they call bombing hospitals? Resisting the evils of sickness?

How is this man (and I hesitate to use that term) even allowed to walk into the U.N. building?

And the concept that (Paraphrased)  “Unless the U.S. reconsiders it’s relations in the Middle East” we should expect more bombings of civilian events as if they are somehow actually justified by our policies. Who is Falk, the Press Secretary for al-Qaeda or armed jihadis in general?

And the U.N. wonders why no one actually cares what they may have to say or why they are increasingly being considered irrelevant.
