What is a liberal?

Submitted by Loud Liberal, Dec 1, 2014 08:57

As a liberal, I find this story very troubling. I thought that The Brookings Institute was a liberal think tank, at least, compared to far, right wing propagandists like The Heritage Foundation (nothing elitist in that name), FreedomWorks, Club for Growth, Cato Institute, etc., etc. etc. However, the truth is that you cannot be a liberal (or a liberal think tank), and at the same time, support the most far, right wing, conservative, radical, extremism in the World - neo-Nazi, arab, islamist, fundamentalist, jihadi, terrorism, against Israel which, by any measure, is one of the most liberal democracies in the World. It is impossible. These positions are mutually exclusive and irreconcilable. Accordingly, The Brookings Institute must, likewise, be a conservative think tank.

All it takes to bribe officials. KEY: Get them dependent on your funds for a few years, and then control what they say publicly, even if they don't believe their own rhetoric. The U.S. has sold out already, it'll just take a decade or two for the average citizen to realize what our political pool has done behind the scenes, and feel the effects of it in our increasing lack of human rights.

I have never seen so many idiots Americans until I read this post, and I wish I did not. I did not know that we have so many ignorant in this country. "Brookings Institution's support of Qatar, a known supporter of Islamic terrorism" what about Christianity terrorism, Zionist terrorism. Bunch of stupid ignorant, now I know why the other countries think we are an idiots it is because people like you.

 

Thank you for your work to Expose Brookings / Qatar

Your work has helped educate me on the true nature of the Brookings Inst. and their close relationship to Qatar. Isn't it strange how truisms hold up - "Follow the money." Brookings Institute deserves to be exposed and discredited for their bias. I write and make phone calls to Congressmen, attend political meetings, and talk to friends and relatives. I'll be sending out the ITP link.

Any site that spins Rasmea Odeh into a 'terrorist' isn't worth the time it takes to click on it.
