Coulter: HAPPY KWANZAA! THE HOLIDAY BROUGHT TO YOU BY THE FBI

If you celebrate Kwanzaa with devotion, I wish you well. The emphasis of the disdain expressed in this column is to me the silly political correctness of liberal Americans. TD

Ann Coulter " I will not be shooting any Black Panthers this week because I am Kwanza-reform, and we are not that observant. Kwanzaa, celebrated exclusively by white liberals, is a fake holiday invented in 1966 by black radical/FBI stooge, Ron Karenga -- aka Dr. Maulana Karenga, founder of United Slaves, the violent nationalist rival to the Black Panthers. In the annals of the American '60s, Karenga was the Father Gapon, pawn of the czarist police.

"In what was ultimately a foolish gambit, during the madness of the '60s, the FBI encouraged the most extreme black nationalist organizations in order to discredit and split the left. The more preposterous the group, the better. By that criterion, Karenga's United Slaves was perfect. " ...
...
"It's as if David Duke invented a holiday called "Anglika," which he based on the philosophy of "Mein Kampf" -- and clueless public school teachers began celebrating the made-up, racist holiday.

"Whether Karenga was a willing FBI dupe, or just a dupe, remains unclear." ... 
 ...

Kwanzaa bells, dashikis sell
Whitey has to pay;
Burning, shooting, oh what fun
On this made-up holiday!

"Only white liberals take Kwanzaa seriously. American blacks celebrate Christmas. Merry Christmas, fellow Christians!"     Full article

 

Christmas, December 1944

Christmas in Nazi Germany  "This picture shows a mother holding her child next to a Christmas tree, while three soldiers trudge through the snow of the east. It faces a poem by Herybert Menzel titled “Soldiers’ Christmas"
Another comment shows a picture of Hitler looking at a Christmas tree with these words:  "The facing page has these words from Goebbels’s 1941 Christmas Eve speech: “On this evening we will think of the Führer, who is also everywhere present this evening wherever Germans gather, and place ourselves in the service of the fatherland." ...

CHRISTMAS AND THE WORLD WAR II GYRENE (In the Pacific)

Eisenhower's Christmas Message to Troops 1944


Right: Christmas 1944
 

A Christmas Miracle At The Battle Of The Bulge   "A man now, Fritz Vincken, narrates this true story about when he was a small boy at the time in 1944. The Battle of the Bulge was at its height. A German cook who was with the German Army there had left his wife and the above mentioned little boy in a shack way in the woods seemingly from harm's way.
      " It was December 24th, Christmas Eve and it was a very cold night. Many soldiers on both sides became lost from their units and were looking for a place to stay. Three American Soldiers were lost around the area where the shack was. They saw the light from the shack and the smoke from the chimney. They saw their chance to warm up. They knocked on the door and asked if they could come in. The German lady had a small chicken cooking for themselves but invited the Americans in to warm up and for the Christmas meal.
       "One of the American Soldiers was wounded and the lady tried to make him comfortable. There was a language barrier for a time till one of the soldiers found out the lady could speak French as well as German! So everything was going well and the Americans were feeling right at home!
       "Then suddenly there was a knock at the door." ...

Christmas Eve in Bastogne

 

"To boost morale, Brigadier General Anthony C. McAuliffe, the acting commander of the 101^st Airborne, issued this announcement:

"What’s merry about all this you ask? We’re fighting—it’s cold—we aren’t home. All true, but what has the proud Eagle Division accomplished with its worthy comrades of the 10th Armored Division, the 705th Tank Destroyer Battalion and all the rest? Just this: We have stopped cold everything that has been thrown at us from the north, east, south and west. We have identifications from four German panzer divisions, two German infantry divisions and one German parachute division. These units, spearheading the last desperate German lunge, were heading straight west for key points when the Eagle Division was hurriedly ordered to stem the advance. How effectively this was done will be written in history; not alone in our Division’s glorious history but in world history. The Germans actually did surround us, their radios blared our doom. Allied troops are counterattacking in force. We continue to hold Bastogne. By holding Bastogne we assure the success of the Allied armies. We know that our Division commander, General Taylor, will say: “Well done!” We are giving our country and our loved ones at home a worthy Christmas present and being privileged to take part in this gallant feat of arms are truly making for ourselves a merry Christmas.

Christmas, 1944 - The Battle of the Bulge

Stories of Christmas and the Battle Of The Bulge ..."One of the most poignant stories I ever heard about World War II was about American servicemen fighting in the fierce battles in Europe, and how they stopped firing at the nearby German soldiers for a few moments because it was Christmas Eve. And, for some mysterious and awesome reason, the Germans stopped firing as well.

"Someone began to sing the beloved hymn Silent Night, and the Germans joined the Americans with Stille Nacht." ...   More here.

The Cross Was Preceded by the Cradle

David Limbaugh  Go here for the full, printable article.

"God became a man to save us from our sins, which he did finally and completely on the Cross. We commemorate his death and resurrection on Easter, but his suffering on our behalf began much earlier than that. We would do well to remember that at Christmastime, when we celebrate our savior's birth.

"Seminary professor Bob Tuttle, in his 2006 book, "Shortening the Leap," puts that in perspective poignantly: "The Jesus of glory still bears the marks of the Incarnation, and not just in his hands, his side and his feet, but in his navel, because the suffering began in the manger, not on the Cross.' "...

 Because he loves us, he died on the Cross for us. But never forget that years before he completed his work on the Cross, he was born for us -- as a little, dependent baby in his earthly mother's arms -- in Bethlehem.
It is the event of his birth that we celebrate at Christmas, without which there would have been no Cross, without which there would be no life everlasting for us.
Merry Christmas to all.

" North Korea's government accused the Obama Administration Tuesday of producing the movie The Interview to embarrass Kim Jung Un. Kim's pride is wounded. Kim Jung Un has been furious ever since North Korean spies returned from the U.S. and told him that Dennis Rodman is not Barack Obama.

"North Korea's Internet went out Monday in what looks like U.S. retaliation for North Korea's Sony hacking. The U.N. may file charges. It appears that we've violated Kim Jung Un's human rights by cutting off his porn but President Obama is trying to get the charge reduced to enhanced interrogation." ...

The movie was viewed favorably by 50% of the people in North Korea.

City of Bloomington to sue Mall of America protesters (#BlackLivesMatter #ShutItDown)

Awesome. Mall of America is going to sue the protest puppet masters. http://cbsloc.al/1CwPswZ
1:36 PM - 23 Dec 2014

"Officers were present on-site, and once the chanting started, moved to close almost 100 stores and several entrances to the mall. I say “moved to” as opposed to “were forced to” because the shutdown occurred as soon as the protests began, and there were no reports of some sort of violent instigating event; but perhaps it’s a good thing the officers moved so quickly, based on how mall employees describe what happened next:
"From CBS Minnesota:

Nate Bash works at one store near the rotunda, which he didn’t want us to name.
“You had people yelling and screaming inside the mall that wanted out and you had people yelling and screaming outside the mall that wanted in,” he said. “I would say the mall was less than half as busy as it should have been considering what day it was.”
“This was a powder keg just waiting for a match,” said Johnson.

Battle of the Bulge; Dec 23rd, 1944

Personal diary: December 23, 1944  "By December 23rd holding the line around Bastogne was less of an issue compared to the crisis of dwindling supplies.  Not only were troops short on food and medical supplies but ammunition was frighteningly low.  Rounds were rationed and soldiers were ordered not to fire unless attacked directly and even then to only fire two rounds.  Colonel Thomas L. Sherburn, the artillery commander, was intentionally reporting overestimates of supply levels simply to maintain morale.
 "Hopes were raised when reports came in that the 4th Armored Division, commanded by Major General Hugh J. Gaffey, was headed towards Bastogne as fast as possible."
 "Great news, we got a message today from Corp that the weather at the air-field were clear.^[1]  Boy we’ll give them hell today.
"Got another set^[2] today from some guys in the 9^th Armored Div. that got caught here when they...."

Tolerance for race pimps from de Blasio and Sharpton on up to this government is wearing out. Excellent commentaries here plus a cartoon update.

http://terrellaftermath.com/

National Review Online editors: De Blasio blames media for his troubles  "New York Mayor de Blasio revealed his true colors yesterday in a press conference, blaming the media for diving New Yorkers, by reporting on misbehavior of demonstrators. Ignoring his own casting of aspersions on the cops, ignoring the inflammatory rhetoric of his ally Al Sharpton, and ignoring his own failure to rebuke demonstrators who marched chanting, “What do we want? Dead Cops? When do we want it? Now!”, he fell back into the posture of a reflexive totalitarian, seemingly pining for the kind of servile media that Cuba’s regime enjoys. Hey mayor, bad behavior is what makes the news. Get used to it. And focus on your own responsibility. Read the transcript (video below) and see:

National Review Online editors: Mayor de Blasio and The sorry result of anti-cop activism. "President Obama, Attorney General Eric Holder, and New York mayor Bill de Blasio have all played their own irresponsible parts; they have all lent moral support to occasionally violent protests." 

"In Mayor de Blasio’s case, this has created an almost unbridgeable divide between him and New York police officers while inflaming tensions between black communities and the police. As recently as this summer, the majority of black New Yorkers approved of the NYPD’s performance. Approval dropped dramatically after Eric Garner’s death in Staten Island; just recently, de Blasio tied that death to systematic police racism, with no evidence for his intimations. Black communities’ distrust of the police has deep, legitimate roots, but it has been receding for years — as crime has dropped in those same communities, in part thanks to assiduous policing."

Below: NY police turn their backs on de Blasio.

Thomas Sowell: The Race Card’s Steep Cost 

... "It is a painful irony that, on the eve of the murders of these two police officers in New York, some of the city’s police were already saying that, in the event of their deaths, they did not want Mayor Bill de Blasio to attend their funerals.
"We can only hope that Mayor de Blasio has some residual decency, so that he will not defile these two officers’ memorial services with his presence. No politician in the country has done more to play the race card against the police and spread the notion that cops are the big problem in minority communities. "

This next bit of commentary from Dr. Sowell needs to be included here, with emphasis:

Make no mistake about it. There is political mileage to be made siding with demagogues like Al Sharpton who, as demagogue-in-chief, has been invited to the White House dozens of times by its commander-in-chief.

Many in the media and among the intelligentsia cherish the romantic tale of an “us” against “them” struggle of beleaguered ghetto blacks defending themselves against the aggression of white policemen. The gullible include both whites who don’t know what they are talking about and blacks who don’t know what they are talking about either, because they never grew up in a ghetto. Among the latter are the President of the United States and his attorney general.

These next words are for Democrats in general, but specifically for this administration and the Congressional Black Caucus in particular :

Let those who have laid a guilt trip on people in our times, for evils done by other people in past centuries, at least face their own responsibility for the evil consequences of their own notions and policies. If they won’t do it, then the rest of us need to stop listening gullibly to what they are saying.

Black Conservative Son Educates Dad on Dems' Race Lies

 

Lloyd Marcus  "For the past six years, I have been a passionate, active black member of the Tea Party.  Unlike the vast majority of black Americans, I did not fall for the radical left's Trojan Horse in the form of a shiny new smooth-talkin' black man back in 2008.  When presidential candidate Obama told Joe the Plumber that he planned to spread the wealth around, I knew he was nothing more than another socialist/progressive liberal who hated America as founded."
...

"Consequently, all of the moral and cultural issues that create economic problems that have plagued the black community for forty years continue to get worse.  Meanwhile, Al Sharpton continues to get paid with cash, influence, and power as the Grand Pooh-Bah of clueless black voters, able to create a riot on demand and deliver deceived angry black voters to the polls every election."
