Fresh off of chasing after a fellow member of Congress, Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) is back in the news. This time, she compared Hamas – A GROUP OF TERRORISTS – to a “humanitarian organization. (Her comments begin around the 5:30 mark)
Retired Lt. Col. Ralph Peters, who is usually not such an animated Fox News contributor, could not contain his disgust on Sean Hannity’s show. He compares her comments to people who used to marvel at Aldoph Hitler’s humanitarian policies for Germany before World War II.
Here is the transcript:
SEAN HANNITY: “How could a former speaker of the House — our own government recognizes Hamas as a terrorist organization. How did she not read their own charter? How does she not know the Qataris are the ones providing the money to buy the rockets that kill the Israelis? Does she not know these basic facts?”LT. COL. RALPH PETERS: “No, she doesn’t know the basic facts. She’s dumb as a rock and makes no effort to educate herself. And you know, I’ll tell Speaker — former Speaker Pelosi that, good — good Lord, I mean…”HANNITY: “I think dumb as a rock is about right.”PETERS: “Yes, but…”(CROSSTALK)HANNITY: “… dumb or ignorant, or both!”PETERS [Mocking tone]: “And the Nazis were wonderful humanitarians. They ran great youth camps for blond-haired children. I mean, come on! At some point, you’ve got to recognize evil when evil is right in your face!”HANNITY: “Yes.”PETERS: “And evil — Hamas is evil. The Qataris are evil! But again, Sean, there’s this notion among Washington elites — and by the way, check out the Washington think tanks funded by the Qataris. There’s this notion that if we just — if we just make friends and chummy up and do the bidding of these Islamist states — and Qatar is about the worst right now — that somehow, everything will magically work out. They are exploiting us, and we’re too stupid to see it!”
Peters is exactly right.
But with Obama Administration’s Secretary of State John Kerry acting as if he is Hamas’ lawyer in cease fire negotiations, and with Hillary Clinton working hard to make excuses for Hamas for hiding weapons inside of schools, I would expect nothing less from a leader of the Democrat party.
