Klayman: Jews Behind Gay Marriage, IRS Scandal

Larry Klayman is very upset that Jewish-Americans aren’t standing up to oppose “the Muslim-in-Chief,” and are instead “at the forefront of a number of scandals.” He said Jews are behind “the promotion of anti-family institutions like gay marriage” and working as President Obama’s “leftist Jewish government comrades and partners in crime.” After calling Obama “a Muslim through and through,” Klayman goes on to write that the IRS scandal was perpetrated by “felonious liberal Jews” who should be in prison:

Well over a decade since the scandalous Clintons left office, the issue of leftist Jewish influence is not just about the promotion of anti-family institutions like gay marriage, but of outright criminal behavior of the Obama administration. I am more than embarrassed and appalled as a Jew to see my own people at the forefront of a number of scandals now perpetrated by the Muslim-in-Chief, Barack Hussein Obama, and his leftist Jewish government comrades and partners in crime. It is time for the great majority of Jews, who are honest law-abiding citizens, to speak up and play a role in helping to put these felonious liberal Jews in a place where the sun don't shine – meaning prison.

That Jews don't mince words and don't generally circle the wagons for their own creed is a Hebrew virtue. The God of Abraham and Isaac is not forgiving to His own people when they step out of line and neither have been his flock. True Jews, like true Christians, will police their own house and not allow criminal behavior to go unaddressed, no matter what the source. That is one of our main differences with Muslims, who by and large cover for, or stay silent about, the terrorist deeds of their brethren. Ironically, this helps explain why Obama, who by birth is half Muslim and who in his heart is a Muslim through and through, refuses to call Muslim terrorism the terrorism it is. We Jews and Christians are cut from a different godly cloth – Yahweh.

So in the last few weeks, when it was revealed that the three main actors in the burgeoning IRS scandal, Doug Shulman, the former IRS commissioner, Steven T. Miller, former acting IRS commissioner, and Lois Lerner, former director of exempt organizations, are all Jewish, my heart again throbbed in shame. Ominously, during the 1990s, and at the height of my efforts to bring the Clintons to justice while heading Judicial Watch, I had tangled with one of these felonious characters, Steven Miller.

As reported last week by Paul Bedard of the Washington Examiner, Miller, who headed the IRS Enforcement Division from 2009 until the end of last year, is named in court documents as part of a trio of Internal Revenue Service officials who allegedly characterized the 1998-2001 investigation of Judicial Watch as politically motivated.

Indeed, I had sued Miller and the IRS after they undertook an audit of Judicial Watch one week after our Clinton impeachment report had been entered by Rep. Bob Barr into the Congressional Record. Miller and company illegally asked in the audit papers about the political affiliations of our directors, much like has been recently exposed to have occurred in the current IRS scandal concerning conservative, pro-Israel and Christian groups during the Obama administration.

All of this underscores why we Jews must now fearlessly stand up and seek to hold our own people legally accountable for their criminal wrongdoing. If the past is a prologue, neither Congress nor our corrupt and compromised Justice Department under Attorney General Eric Holder will bring these disgraceful rogues to justice. To do less would be to forsake our proud Judeo- Christian roots and heritage.
