Gingrich's Extremist Anti-Palestinian Stance Follows Millions From Top Donor Sheldon Adelson

democracynow.org - Many analysts say Newt Gingrich's recent rise in the Republican contest would have been impossible without the backing of one man -- multi-billionaire casino mogul Sheldon Adelson. Adelson and his wife have donated $10 million to the pro-Gingrich super PAC, "Winning Our Future," which has run a series of ads attacking Gingrich's opponent Mitt Romney. Gingrich has openly admitted Adelson's support came down to a single issue: Israel. Gingrich has adopted the most extremist anti-Palestinian stance of the Republican presidential field, calling the Palestinians themselves an "invented" people. We speak with Gal Beckerman of the Jewish Daily Forward and Linda Sarsour of the Arab American Association of New York.

Do a Google search on "who controls the state department". About 50% of the people working there are either Jewish or married to Jews. Fact! That is under the leadership of Hitlery Clinton whose own daughter married a Jew.

How about this, Newty - what if your neighbour annexed a portion of your propperty to build a shed? But they don't stop there - they continue with their illegal annexations and continue building - going so far as to tear your fucking house down - charge you for the demolition - then build an apartment building so his relatives can move in? If you love ignorance and stupidity so much Newty - why don't you move to Israel? Fuck you and your fucking religion - you are a blight on humanity.
