SubscribeWright: White Supremacy Caused Abu Ghraib
A little love note from the Reverend Doctor Jeremiah Wright to our soldiers and elected representatives, via his glorious newsletter, The Trumpet (pdf file), for the Memorial Day weekend of 2004:
TO DO JUSTICE
Sunday, May 30, 2004
The American government historically and currently has been marked what Dr. Marimba Ani calls “Rhetorical Ethic.” Rhetorical Ethic according to Dr. Ani is defined as: Culturally structured European hypocrisy. It is a statement framed in terms of acceptable moral behavior towards others that is meant for rhetorical purposes only. Its purpose is to disarm intended victims of European cultural and political imperialism. It is meant for “export” only. It is not intended to have significance within the culture. Its essence is its deceptive effect in the service of European power.
When we think about the history of this country with respect to its imperialistic actions, such as stealing of various lands, mistreatment of people, and total disregard and disrespect for other people and cultures, we see how acutely accurate Dr. Ani’s description is. However, if we move from the past to the present, we will continue to see how accurate her analysis is, especially with regard to this current Presidential administration. This administration has clearly shown its rhetorical ethical characteristics by stealing elections, overthrowing a democratically elected president in Haiti, and now with the prison scandal in Abu Gharib.
This Resident of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue has known for approximately 2 years that his administration has been pushing policies and practices that qualify as war crimes. As early as January 25, 2002, the Resident Bush was warned by White House counsel that there was a “threat of domestic criminal prosecution under the War Crimes Act.” Bush was advised to invent a legal technicality that would reduce the chance of prosecution. This legal technicality would allow Bush to declare detainees in the war on terror to be outside of the strictures included in the agreements put forth by the Geneva Conventions, which govern the rules of engagement. When laws are in the way of European power, they find ways to use laws as “export only,” meaning the laws are used to govern others, but not themselves—rhetorical ethic.
Take this a step further. The War Crimes Act, which was passed in Congress in 1996 provides for the criminal prosecution of Americans for actions that violate the rights of prisoners and civilians by the Geneva Conventions, and for outrages on personal dignity. This is the binding law of the land. However, this law appears to be subject to the rhetorical ethic of Resident Bush. We have seen horrid photos and videos over the past few weeks of the American treatment of civilians and soldiers in Iraq. George Bush calls this scandal “failures of character” of American soldiers. However, based on the advice of White House counsel in January of 2002 when the armed forces were only in Afghanistan, it becomes clear that this Administration always planned on using torture tactics in interrogation beyond Afghanistan. White House counsel stated in his advice to the President to “hold open options for future conflicts.” Bush knew and knows about the tortuous acts of the soldiers, and had the pictures not come out, he and his administration would still be condoning the acts of torture on the Iraqi people.
Because the demon of white supremacy is more concerned with possessing a disabling power than respect of people, it finds ways to implement its supremacist practices on people regardless of who it affects negatively, as long as it is does not disserve white supremacy. Rhetorical ethic is the hypocritical exercise of white supremacy used to service the same. It sets laws that are only to be adhered to by others. But if those laws or structures get in the way of white supremacist actions of power, they will not apply. Such is the history and current state of this American government.
Of course Mr. Obama says he never heard or saw any of this America-hating gibberish from his “spiritual mentor.”
And we believe him.

Well how about that, Wright has a severe case of BDS in addition to being an unhinged race baiting poverty pimp.
Sounds to me like the good revrun’ is projecting his own “rhetorical ethic” unto others who don’t share his view of the world politic. He’s a shameless race pimp, nothing more.

Keep talking Jeremy, keeeeep talking…

If he and his followers are so astute at running the show, I think it’s high time he come up with some suggestions. He’s a blowhard dork.

“If he and his followers are so astute at running the show, I think it’s high time he come up with some suggestions.”
Judging from his incessant begging on the pages of Trumpet, Mr. Wright is just barely able to keep their church above water.
Every page that isn’t “hatin’ on America” or (illegally) exhorting their parishioners to lobby Congress — is asking for money.
Mr. ($1.6 million dollar house) Wright is quite the accomplished huckster.

Sure glad this butt pirate isn’t in charge of national security or anything else . Don’t he know hate kills ?
May 10th, 2008 at 11:50 pm
It must be one helluva burden to walk around your whole life and see racism in everything and everyone.
He’s a pretty steadfast “black supremist” for a mulato.
May 11th, 2008 at 12:42 am
Burden or pathetic racist chip on ones shoulder , this kind of garbage may play well downtown . Where I come from , it’s a cast iron slap in the face . No place on earth has done more for freedom . Here or abroad ! If you can’t handle or grasp the reality of this country . You need to leave . I realize being a man is harder than being a parasite , but just try it once . White supremists , that would be the ” liberal ” party . History 101 . 40 plus year war on poverty and nothing to show for it . Five minutes with a lib and a taterstick = results .

If you go and look up Dr. Marimba Ani (born Dona Richards) - these people (who have an ethnic centric view of history and current World affairs) main problem is that they confuse culture with heritage. An educated person knows the difference and would not make the grievous error of interchanging the two - but of course race baiting and racism can’ t survive without such errors. . .
Combine that with the liberal - ‘words have no meaning’ - and add a dash of making up - Rhetorical ethic - words or phrases - well what better way to dumb down the people you want to keep firmly planted under your thumb. . .
It is a shame that our - ‘Obama claims he’s visited 57 states’ - stellar (and oh so brilliant messiah of a) candidate - listen to this bs for 20 years -
May 11th, 2008 at 9:36 am
I’d like to see the blogs post pdfs of every available issue of The Trumpet to expose the ractist Jeremiah Wright with his own words.
May 11th, 2008 at 10:48 am
Me too, shmopot. At the least, I’d like to see the interviews with Barry and Michelle in the issue that features the famous picture of Obama and Rev. Wright on the cover.
If we need to see Cindy McCain’s tax returns before we can vote in November, we certainly need to see those interviews.

“Rhetorical Ethic according to Dr. Ani is defined as: Culturally structured European hypocrisy”.
Is that not a blanket statement about all European decedents? Isn’t making a judgment about an entire race prejudiced? First of all, its downright ignorant, irresponsible and shows the arrogance of a spoiled adolescent to judge people from centuries ago by todays standards. Also, lumping America together with European history is just a cheap attempt to accuse us of others deeds. If Rev. Wright had any real conviction he would leave America, go back to where he came from (by his own reasoning - personally, I came from California) and never take another dime from the blue eyed devils. Instead, he’s moving into a rich white neighborhood.
Like “Dr”. Ani and Louis Farrakhan, his facts are lies and reasoning flawed. He gets away with it because his audience is part of a culture where ignorance is bliss and hate is sustenance. He sells a Godless materialism to them while pretending to be a Christian. His flock associate him with the traditional Christian philosophy thus giving him moral credibility.
I’d like to believe there’s a special place in hell for hate mongers like him.

Guppy - there is, remember God said - beware of false prohets - they know they are foisting their own interpretation of the Bible/God/religion unto the people for their own purpose.
It is a hard aspect of Chrisitanity to take - remembering - Vengeance is mine, sayth the Lord - when you really, really want to smack them upside the head. . . Ok well, at least sometimes I do.

“Like “Dr”. Ani and Louis Farrakhan, his facts are lies and reasoning flawed. He gets away with it because his audience is part of a culture where ignorance is bliss and hate is sustenance.”
IMO, he gets away with because America long ago turned their colleges and schools over to the Williams Ayers terrorists. AERA
“Ayers’s influence on what is taught in the nation’s public schools is likely to grow in the future. Last month, he was elected vice president for curriculum of the 25,000-member American Educational Research Association (AERA), the nation’s largest organization of education-school professors and researchers. Ayers won the election handily, and there is no doubt that his fellow education professors knew whom they were voting for. In the short biographical statement distributed to prospective voters beforehand, Ayers listed among his scholarly books Fugitive Days, an unapologetic memoir about his ten years in the Weather Underground. The book includes dramatic accounts of how he bombed the Pentagon and other public buildings. ”
William Ayers, Unapologetic terrorist” will determine what each student learns about America. How insane is that?
Why does anyone think we are hearing-voters with college education support Obama?

“America long ago turned their colleges and schools over to the Williams Ayers terrorist”
No doubt about that. Rev. Wright is a Marxist but I believe Ayers is a full blown communist. To them everything is a weapon; education, religion, diplomacy, language, etc. We have been disarmed in the name of tolerance but they will never reciprocate.
Abu Gharib was a bunch of perverted a**holes run amok, an isolated incident and not torture promoted by the Bush administration. I can point out many like atrocities committed in the black community on a daily basis. Do we get to hold the leaders of that community accountable? Rev. Wright has an audience that can’t keep things like this in perspective. They’ll drink the Kool Aide and go straight to hell.

A few days ago an excellent article was posted on FrontPage Magazine.com called: Democrats’ Platform for Revolution by John Perazzo. It was perhaps to my mind one of the most insightful piece that I have ever seen in revealing the true nature of Barack Obama’s campaign for “change’. It is quite long—I read it out loud to my husband and it took me about a half hour or so and as you go through it, if you have been paying attention to what he and others connected to him have been saying, you can very easily insert all kinds of Obama ideas and quotes with no difficulty at all. Perazzo lays out in startling detail the ideas or “rules” of Obama’s real mentor (and probably others in his close circle of friends and associates over the years—social, religious and political), Marxist, Saul Alinsky. This is an incredibly important article and one we should all not only take the time to read but also study and pass on because it’s all laid out. I have seen a few other articles referring to the Alinsky-Obama connection but until I saw it laid out like this, I didn’t quite grasp its full significance. It’s all there and when it is read in the context of the Obama “Movement”, the radical nature of the “change” is stripped bare.
I also decided to do some research on this Dr. Marimba Ani that Rev. Reginald Williams is so fond of. I found this article from his book, “Hypocrisy as a Way of Life” http://www.hartford-hwp.com/archives/60/001.html which talks about this “Rhetorical Ethic”. So I decided to juxtapose a few quotes from Ani with some by Alinsky that were included in Perazzo’s article. Ani’s book is supposed to help blacks understand why white folk act the way they do. I found it incredibly ironic that Dr. Ani’s ideas about what makes white, European culture (and hence white American) click fits so well with the ideas that were developed by the Marxist, Alinsky, and marketed by “community organizers” like Obama to get the white “oppressor” to do what the black community wants. They have done exactly what Ani says will happen to those who adopt this hypocritical European ethic. Here goes:
DR. ANI: “It is an inherent characteristic of the culture that it prepares members of the culture to be able TO ACT LIKE FRIENDS toward those they regard as ENEMIES; to be able to convince others that they have come TO HELP when they, in fact, have come TO DESTROY the others and their culture. THAT SOME MAY “BELIEVE” THAT THEY ARE ACTUALLY DOING GOOD ONLY MAKES THEM MORE DANGEROUS, for they have swallowed their own rhetoric-perhaps a convenient self-delusion.”
Quote by Perazzo from J. EDGAR HOOVER, Masters of Deceit, pp 101-102: “The word ‘democracy’ is one of the communists’ favorite Aesopian terms. They say they favor democracy, that communism will bring the fullest democracy in the history of mankind. But, to the communists, democracy does not mean free speech, free elections, or the right of minorities to exist. Democracy means the domination of the communist state, the complete supremacy of the Party. The greater the communist control, the more ‘democracy.’ ‘Full democracy,’ to the communist, will come only when all non-communist opposition is liquidated.”
“Such expressions as ‘democracy,’ ‘equality,’ ‘freedom,’ and ‘justice’ are merely the Party’s Aesopian devices to impress non-communists. Communists … CLOTHE THEMSELVES WITH EVERYTHING GOOD, NOBLE, AND INSPIRING TO EXPLOIT THOSE IDEALS TO THEIR OWN ADVANTAGE.”
DR. ANI: The European rhetorical ethic is precisely that-purely rhetorical- and, as such, has its own origins as a creation for export; i.e., for the political, intercultural activity of the European. It is designed to create an image that will prevent others from successfully anticipating European behavior, and its objective is to encourage non-strategic (i.e., NAIVE, rather than successful) political behavior on the part of others. This is the same as “nonpolitical” behavior.) It is DESIGNED TO SELL, TO DUPE, TO PROMOTE EUROPEAN NATIONALISTIC OBJECTIVES. IT “PACKAGES” EUROPEAN CULTURAL IMPERIALISM IN A WRAPPING THAT MAKES IT APPEAR MORE ATTRACTIVE, LESS HARMFUL.”
And also from DR. ANI: “European culture is constructed in such a way that successful survival within it discourages honesty and directness and ENCOURAGES DISHONESTY AND DECEIT–THE ABILITY TO APPEAR TO BE SOMETHING OTHER THAN WHAT ONE IS; TO HIDE ONE’S “SELF,” ONE’S MOTIVES AND INTENT.”
ALINSKY: A related principle taught by Alinsky was that radical organizers must not only speak the language of the middle class, but that they also must dress their crusades in the vestments of morality. “Moral rationalization,” he said, “is indispensable to all kinds of action, whether to justify the selection or the use of ends or means.” (Rules for Radicals, p. 43) “All great leaders,” he added, “invoked ‘moral principles’ to cover naked self-interest in the clothing of ‘freedom,’ ‘equality of mankind,’ ‘a law higher than man-made law,’ and so on.” In short: “All effective actions require the passport of morality.”(Ibid, pp. 43-44). Hoover’s book tells us: “Much of their propaganda was written in a ‘roundabout’ and elusive style to pass severe Czarist censorship. They desired revolution but could not say so. They had to resort to hints, theoretical discussions, even substituting words, which, through fooling the censor, were understood by the ‘initiated,’ that is, individuals trained in [Communist] Party terminology….”
ALINSKI: “Wherever possible go outside the experience of the enemy. Here you want to cause confusion, fear, and retreat.” (Ibid, p. 74) Marching mobs of chanting demonstrators accomplishes this objective. The average observer’s reaction to such a display is of a dual nature: First he is afraid. But he also recalls the organizer’s initial articulation of middle-class ideals and morals. THUS HE CONVINCES HIMSELF THAT THE PEOPLE’S ORGANIZATION IS SURELY COMPOSED OF REASONABLE PEOPLE WHO ACTUALLY HOLD VALUES SIMILAR TO HIS OWN, AND WHO SEEK RESOLUTIONS THAT WILL BE BENEFICIAL TO BOTH SIDES. This thought process causes him to proffer — in hopes of appeasing the angry mobs — concessions and admissions of guilt, which the organizer in turn exploits to gain still greater moral leverage and to extort further concessions.
DR. ANI: “Value determines what is imitated and preserved, what is selected for and encouraged.” “Avowed values” on the other hand, which are MERELY PROFESSED, which find expression only verbally, which are NOT INDICATIVE OF BEHAVIOR, belong to what I have called the “rhetorical ethic.”
ALINSKY: “No organization, including organized religion, can live up to the letter of its own book. You can club them to death with their ‘book’ of rules and regulations.” (Ibid, p. 128)
ALINSKY: “Practically all people live in a world of contradictions. THEY ESPOUSE A MORALITY WHICH THEY DO NOT PRACTICE.… This dilemma can and should be fully utilized by the organizer in getting individuals and groups involved in a People’s Organization. It is a very definite Achilles’ heel even in the most materialistic person.” (Ibid, pp. 93-94). PERAZZO says further: “The MISCONDUCT OF A HANDFUL of American soldiers at Iraq’s Abu Ghraib prison in 2004 was portrayed as part of a much larger pattern that had been approved by the highest levels of the U.S. government. And on the battlefields of the Middle East, any American military initiative that has inadvertently killed innocent civilians has been cited by opponents of the war as evidence that U.S. TROOPS ARE MANIACAL, BLOODTHIRSTY KILLERS.”
DR. ANI: People who are duped by others and relate to a projected image are considered fools or “COUNTRY BUMPKINS.” Hypocrisy in this way becomes not a negative personality trait, not immoral or abnormal behavior, but it is both expected and cultivated. It is considered to be a crucial ingredient of “sophistication,” a European goal.’
BARACK OBAMA, the Alinsky proselyte, teacher and organizer and member of the church that believes in Dr. Ani’s “Retorical Ethic” to the sophisticates of San Francisco: “You go into some of these small towns in Pennsylvania, and like a lot of small towns in the Midwest, the jobs have been gone now for 25 years and nothing’s replaced them, and they fell through the Clinton Administration, and the Bush Administration, and each successive administration has said that somehow these communities are gonna regenerate and they have not. And it’s not surprising then they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren’t like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations.”
The black community of South Chicago and anywhere else that is similar and Africa HAVE been taken in by a sophisticated European “Rhetorical Ethic” (didn’t Obama say “bamboozled”?) but it’s the very one that they have decided to believe in and use to prolong their own insatiable victimhood and an inability to grow and develop in the freedom that’s been available to them for a long time now. And Obama is just trying to sell it to the nation as a whole.

I added it to my site several days ago after writting the author (i posted it here - some dang place) Democrats’ Platform for Revolution
it was an amzing article that answered lots of my questions - I couldn’t figure out if obam was Christian, Muslim, Marxist, Racist, Communist, Socialist, Black Nationalist, Populist, Progressive, or Combinations of everything that he had absorbed during his pathetic whinning journey. This article put more pieces together.

Because so much keeps disappearing off the web I’ve been lookin around to see if there are back ups- and there are some here and there of trinity at least… [ http://tinyurl.com/6y7nx3 ]
while looking into these churchs there is a pattern that can’t be ignored. Jeremiah Wright isn’t alone. There are thousands of Wrights and churchs like Wright’s. Because there are so many i figured their preachings and philosophy have got to be shared amoung one another. And they are. ( Just one political branch of churchs infused in controling State and politics are called social justice ministries. )
or church IAF affliate
I had some keywords that brought up 66,000 hits for radical churchs.
Like the association of Obama to the church, one only has to begin a list of the Pastors, reverends, and their association to Wright to follow the pattern and radical gospel they are spreading. Everywhere.
It reminds me a lot of hamas and their present political power. Their organizing of communities; they spread hatred from the mosques while providing food, shelter, jobs, education, ect. to the “bitter”.
This process is a basis for their exceptance and rise to political positions as seen in lebanon, and also the same for hezbolah of palestine (Philistine).
Democrascy is being used, perverted and converted “from the bottom up.” The ballot the means of ‘legitimacy’ to ‘change’ philosophies.
since sg has 117 of trumpet i won’t beat my brains in wrestlin an already pinned down slippery varmit.
