The U.S. Senate Runoff in Georgia is December 6th, 2022.

“Reverend” Raphael Warnock has launched a character assassination attack against Herschel Walker Walker that totally distorts the battle the former college and NFL superstar once had with a mental health illness known as dissociative identity disorder. Warnock, who professes to be a man of God, is in truth a Marxist revolutionary hiding behind the ecclesiastical robes of his professed Christian faith. His allegiance to the hammer and sickle was exposed in 2020 when he refused to condemn communism during a debate with then-GOP senator Kelly Loeffler. The tactic Warnock is using—trying to destroy Walker’s character rather than debate issues—is nothing new. For the last half century, the post-JFK Democratic Party has indoctrinated its followers to not just disagree with Republicans, but to loathe them as well. A classic example of how successful that strategy has been can be seen by watching the 30-second video linked to in the first paragraph of the article below.

Please Herschel’s response to the hateful attack on him:

“Don’t let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen.” Eph. 4:29. @ReverendWarnock & his friends want to stigmatize & turn us against each other. Let’s reject that. pic.twitter.com/GZI3wxEQVh

Teach Them To Hate

For more than a half century, the post-1960s Democratic Party has employed a strategy of using Critical Theory and Identity Politics to foment an intense loathing of Republicans. The success of that strategy was illustrated by an angry liberal voter in the lead-up to the 2020 elections. With white hot hatred oozing from every fiber of her being, the crazed woman in the video below bellowed into her cell phone, “Wake up, Republicans! They warned us about people like you!” Watch:

CRITICAL THEORY

Developed in Germany during the first half of the last century by Marxist professors at the Frankfurt School, “critical theory” is a stratagem through which communist warriors subvert Western democracies by relentlessly challenging the traditional principles, values and institutions that enable those societies to function.

In its most basic form, critical theory calls for tearing away at the social fabric of free nations by constantly stigmatizing political opponents as selfish beneficiaries of an unjust and oppressive status quo. Under critical theory, opponents are targeted with never-ending criticism of virtually everything they do, and are assigned exclusive blame for every real or imagined societal wrong.

The goal of critical theory is to create a constant state political chaos, to make society so deeply divided, so roiled with bitter controversy that frightened, demoralized citizens will agree to support calls for an entirely new system that is “fair for all.”

IDENTITY POLITICS 

To overthrow a capitalist society, The Communist Manifesto calls for inciting a titanic class struggle by pitting a victim class against an oppressor class. In the bloody Russian Revolution of 1917, the Bolsheviks rose to power by pitting the proletariat against the bourgeois. Over the last half-century, the post-1960s Democratic Party has refined the concept of Marxist/Leninist class struggle into a potent political weapon known as “identity politics.”

The term refers to politically subdividing the electorate into multiple factions (voting blocs), the members of which are indoctrinated to believe they’ve been singled out for oppression due to societal prejudice against the identity group to which they belong.

To wit: People of color are oppressed by “systemic racism,” women by sexists and misogamists, refugees and illegal immigrants by xenophobes, Muslims by Islamophobes; gays and lesbians by religious bigots, and so on. The self-serving narrative of identity politics is that tolerant, inclusive and morally virtuous Democrats will righteously defend the members (voters) of each identity group from constant outrages intentionally inflicted on them by intolerant and morally bereft Republicans.

Through the use of identity politics vilification campaigns, the Democratic Party has religiously adhered to Alinsky’s teach-them-to-hate strategy by indoctrinating its followers to not just disagree with Republicans, but to loathe them as well.

TEACH THEM TO HATE: HOW DEMOCRATS WIN ELECTIONS

In a free society, advocates of communism can avoid having to sell their failed utopian ideas to a skeptical electorate, provided they can convince enough voters that their opponents are morally abhorrent people. Voters convinced of that will summarily reject 100% of what they hear from the other side. Lenin referred to such easily influenced voters as “useful idiots.” When asked how the Bolsheviks planned to keep the Russian people from listening to counterrevolutionaries, the Father of Soviet Communism said in so many words, “We must speak in a language that teaches our followers to direct hate and revulsion toward those who oppose us.”

Half-a-century later, a Marxist community organizer in Chicago named Saul Alinsky incorporated Lenin’s teach-them-to-hate strategy in his revolutionary book, “Rules for Radicals.” When “Rules” was published in 1971, the post-1960s Democratic Party adopted the book as its political bible. Believing that communism is so morally and intellectually superior that its advocates must prevail at all costs, Alinsky taught Democrats that the most effective way to defeat Republicans is to relentlessly accuse them of being racists.

Sensing that Alinsky’s tactics could be the means to fulfill her insatiable thirst for political power, a young Goldwater Republican became so infatuated with Alinsky that she switched her party affiliation. As the Democratic Party’s presidential nominee five decades later, Hillary Clinton would put Alinsky’s teach-them-to-hate strategy to practice by demonizing Trump supporters as morally reprehensible people: “You could put half of Trump’s supporters into what I call a basket of deplorables. They’re racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamophobic — you name it.”

Like Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama is one of Alinsky’s most loyal disciples. Having taught classes about the Marxist community organizer at the University of Chicago, Obama used Alinsky’s “ends justify the means” tactics in ascending to the most powerful job in the world.

HOW FREE NATIONS ARE FELLED FROM WITHIN

Generating political hatred is how totalitarians can take over a free country without firing a shot. That’s what happened in 1930s Germany, where a cheerleading press helped Hitler convince the German people that Jews were the cause of the country’s problems. By the time decent Germans realized the horror of what the Nazis were doing, it was too late.

Political hatred is un-American in the most poisonous meaning of the term. When a political party self-righteously wraps itself in a delusional cloak of moral superiority, there’s not much it won’t do to annihilate its opposition; when it teaches is followers to direct seething hatred toward the opposition, things are unlikely to end well.

CNN, which apparently is unable or unwilling to check the social media posts of those it is considering hiring, just to make sure there is nothing scandalous in that potential hire’s background, has tripped over itself again. The story of the latest unfit-for-purpose producer is here:

CNN Producer Tweeted ‘#TeamHitler,’ Called Hamas Terrorists ‘Freedom Fighters

by Akiva Van Koningsveld, Algemeiner, November 16, 2022:

Idris Muktar Ibrahim, a California-educated native of Kenya, has done work for CNN since 2015, reporting on critical events in Africa, including then-President Barack Obama’s visit to the region and the crash of Ethiopian Airlines Flight 302.

Earlier this year, following his graduation from UC Berkeley’s Graduate School of Journalism, CNN’s international desk took him on as a producer.

In our cultural of credentialism, Idris Muktar Ibrahim knew he had to get some kind of degree in order to raise himself from his role as a lowly freelance reporter filing stories from Africa, to that appetizing thing, an on-staff reporter and producer. He dutifully enrolled at UC Berkeley’s Graduate School of Journalism, and emerged from his academic chrysalis a veritable butterfly, immediately hired by CNN’s international desk as a producer. That was where CNN failed in its duty of due diligence: before hiring him for a job as producer, it failed to look into his social media posts to see if there was anything worrisome, anything that might suggest, for example, a deep hostility to Jews and to Israel.

Ibrahim’s name has appeared in multiple bylines on CNN.com, including a November 13 article about Israel’s incoming governing coalition, titled “Israeli President invites Netanyahu to form government.”

Yet Ibrahim’s profound hatred of the Jewish state calls into question his ability to impartially report on the Arab-Israeli conflict.

For instance, in a July 13, 2014, Twitter post (screenshot), he seemingly expressed support for Nazi mass murderer Adolf Hitler. “I have shifted to team Germany after finding out that Messi supports Israel,” Ibrahim wrote, concluding the tweet with the offensive hashtag “#TeamHitler.”

So the year before he began working as a freelancer for CNN, he was already on record, at Twitter, as having declared he would no longer support the soccer team for which Lionel Messi played, because Ibrahim found out that “Messi supports Israel.” (It’s amusing to realize that Palestinian propagandists photoshopped a picture of Messi holding a Palestinian flag — it never happened.) Ibrahim felt such animus to the Jewish state that he transferred his soccer allegiance from FC Barcelona, which Messi played for from 2014 to 2017, to Germany’s national soccer team. And just to make clear what he thought of Jews, he ended that tweet with the hashtag #team Hitler.That came at the end of an anti-Israel post, so there could be no misunderstanding its sinister meaning.

 Ibrahim also lavished praise on Hamas (screenshot), claiming that members of the US-designated terror organization are “modern day freedpm fighters [sic]” who are “definding [sic] their land.” According to the CNN producer, Hamas is entitled to its “armed struggle” against Israeli civilian targets.

Notably, just hours after Ibrahim posted his tweet on July 18, 2014, a Hamas rocket struck a kindergarten in the southern Israeli town of Gan Yavneh.

Idris Mukhtar Ibrahim describes Hamas members as “modern-day freedom fighters.” The “freedom” that Hamas is fighting for is set out clearly in the organization’s charter: it has but one goal — destruction of the state of Israel and its replacement, from the river to the sea, by a Palestinian Arab state. Hamas’ freedom fighters have conducted thousands of attacks, almost all of them directed at civilians. In the latest war, in May 2021, Hamas launched hundreds of rockets into civilian cities and villages in southern Israel, hitting schools, shops, synagogues, homes – all of them civilian targets. Hamas terrorists have had a particular fondness for suicide bombings, of buses and at bus stops, cafes, restaurants, stores, open-air markets.

But Hamas doesn’t just cause civilian casualties among Israelis. It also holds its own civilians hostage, by hiding its extensive armory of weapons, especially missiles and rockets, inside or under or next to civilian buildings – schools, hospitals, apartment and office buildings – and launches attacks into Israel from those civilian structures. And this practice is what leads to the deaths of Palestinian civilians. As is well known, the IDF makes great efforts, before launching its own attacks against Hamas’ weapons hideouts, to minimize civilian casualties. It telephones, sends emails, and uses its “knock-on-the-roof” technique, to warn civilians away from targets that are just about to be struck. But there will always be some unavoidable casualties, due entirely to Hamas’ practice of hiding its fighters and its weapons among civilians.

Hamas is recognized as a terror organization by the civilized part of the world – the countries of Europe and North America. Even Arab states, including Egypt, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE, have declared it to be a “terrorist” group. But Idris Muktar Ibrahim begs to differ. For him the suicide bombers of Hamas, who blow up busses and restaurants, or lob missiles into kindergartens and hospitals, are “freedom fighters,” worthy of praise.

Idris Muktar Ibrahim is, of course, entitled to his personal views, even if they are ignorant and offensive. But as we previously explained, producers with a political agenda can be selective with the information they present to the public, resulting in lopsided media coverage of the conflict in the Middle East.

Sadly, Ibrahim is but the latest in a series of journalists whose virulently anti-Jewish views have been exposed by HonestReporting. Over the last three months alone, our editorial team uncovered four antisemitic, anti-Israel journalists and successfully convinced reputable outlets to cut ties with them (see here and here).

HonestReporting has contacted CNN for comment. In response, a spokesperson for the network told us they are looking into the matter.

Will CNN do the right thing, and discharge this admirer of Hitler and Hamas? Let us hope.
