Pentagon generals in trouble for promoting 'Christian Embassy'

Pentagon generals in trouble for promoting 'Christian Embassy'

CNN reported Monday that the Pentagon's Inspector General has found that seven military officers, including four generals, engaged in misconduct three years ago when they appeared in a promotional video for an evangelical group called Christian Embassy. Although no one in the military is allowed to seek converts while on active duty, the officers appear in uniform in the video, much of which, according to the Washington Post, was filmed inside the Pentagon. Former acting secretary of the Air Force Pete Geren appears as well. Mikey Weinstein, an Air Force Academy graduate and former assistant counsel under President Reagan who founded the Military Religious Freedom Foundation, which asked for the investigation, told CNN, "They were absolutely proselytizing. ... Numbers of them had actually led Christian Embassy Bible studies. They were well aware what this was about."

Christian Embassy, which targets the government and military, is an outreach group of Campus Crusade for Christ. The front page of their website features links for "I Work on Capitol Hill," "I Am a Member of the Diplomatic Community," "I Am a Presidential Appointee," and "I Work at the Pentagon."

"One of the reasons this is so sensitive, and so controversial" explained CNN, "is top commanders know that al Qaeda and other fundamentalist Islamic groups often make the claim that the US military is in, if you will, a crusade against Islam -- those of the Islamic faith. So there are still many, many questions now about just how much control, how much influence this Christian Embassy group and other groups have inside the Pentagon walls."

Good grief.

What a Joke.

Zionist and Talmudic Jews OWN the government and they probably OWN the so-called Christian organizations affiliated with the above dictem.

What a joke.

U.S. congressmen, representatives, generals and even presidents are regularly endoctrinated into the "Israeli" way of doing things (even taking regular 'trips' to Israel for these little discussions and mind-warp sessions).

I fear AIPAC and the MYRIAD of Zionist influenced think tanks and organizations far above and beyond a real 'Christian' organizational lobbying firm (If it be a real 'Christian' firm LOL).

leftist-secularist jews attack this sort of christianisation of the armed forces, the courthouses, or whatever, but they don't attack lubavitch for its corruption, its political gangsterism, or its ghastly twelve-foot 'menorahs'

This is of course not about the "aggressiveness of Christianity". The fellow who took offense was Mr. Weinstein, and if I dare indicate his ethnicity I will be called an Anti-Semite, so I will not. He is from exactly the same community that puts constant pressure on the US to attack Iraq, Lebanon, Syria, Iran, Sudan, Pakistan, what have you until it is completely over stretched and financially bleeding to death feeding the merchants of war in the process.

Mikey Weinstein

"We have a religious war going on in this country," he said, and "my brother and sister Jews need to wake up." He decried the refusal of Jewish organizations? with the exception of the Anti-Defamation League? to take the threat of the Christocrats seriously and push back. "In many respects," he said, "they think it can't happen here."

"It's an imperious contagion of unconstitutional triumphalism," Weinstein said. Every day it gets worse. If we can't beat this imperialist Christianity in the military, then what chance do we have" to beat it in civilian society?

He hopes Jews will awaken to see the looming danger. "The most beautiful thing about America is our concept of tolerating diversity. It's a very Jewish concept." But, says Weinstein, it's being bludgeoned and assaulted by the intolerance of the Christianizers.

You have to use the HTML command

<img src="the exact web address of the photo">

The quotation marks and syntax are critical.

example:

<img src="http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y57/myratsareintune/ILbarcode.gif">

will display

P.S. I use a trick to actually show the command without it executing for instructional purposes.

Who the hell is this guy kidding?

So the 'American' concept of diversity is actually a 'Jewish' concept?

GIVE ME A F**** BREAK!

Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon back as far at the 6th Century BC taught the American-form of 'diversity' long before the so-called 'Jews' and in truth Khazars ever understood the concept.

SO the concept is at best an Assyrian concept NOT a Jewish concept as the MISINFORMER-So-Called-Jew would like you to believe.

And besides, this COUNTRY (US) was originally a 'CHRISTIAN' Country, the majority of peasants left England, Ireland and Europe to seek not only a financially better life (materially), but also sought religious freedom as well, and that religion was Christianity for the better part of the immigrants.

Unless I'm ignorant to the ancestory of the following men, I believe their concepts reflect, for the better part, that of 'CHRISTIAN' concepts, and they reflect protection of the rights of minorities as well as the majority (which in fact reflects a respect for diversity):

"They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety." -- Benjamin Franklin, Historical Review of Pennsylvania (1759)

"Bear in mind this sacred principle, that though the will of the majority is in all cases to prevail, that will, to be rightful, must be reasonable; that the minority possess their equal rights, which equal laws must protect, and to violate would be oppression." -- Thomas Jefferson: 1st Inaugural, 1801

"The true foundation of republican government is the equal right of every citizen in his person and property and in their management." -- Thomas Jefferson to Samuel Kercheval, 1816.

"Of liberty I would say that, in the whole plenitude of its extent, it is unobstructed action according to our will. But rightful liberty is unobstructed action according to our will within limits drawn around us by the equal rights of others. I do not add 'within the limits of the law,' because law is often but the tyrant's will, and always so when it violates the right of an individual."--Thomas Jefferson to Isaac H. Tiffany, 1819

"A Bill of Rights is what the people are entitled to against every government on Earth... and what no just government should refuse." -- Thomas Jefferson in a Letter to James Madison, Paris, Dec. 20, 1787

The So-called Jew would like to have all of your children believe they are:
-Smarter
-More creative
-Given the God given right to overlord
-All gentiles owe them forever for the
Holohoax.

They are liars, all of them. In fact Einstein himself was a propoganda tool utilized to push 'Jewish' intelligence as far back as the 1920's. See Einstein & plagiarism (he wasn't 1/2 the genius we all have been brainwashed to believe he was by his own admonition.
