Obama Used IRS to Target Pro-Israel Orgs Based on Anti-Israel Hate Sites

FrontPage: The release of the memo is very important. But we also need to investigate and expose the various abuses of Obama Inc. And one of those was using the IRS to target political opponents. The most blatant case involved a pro-Israel group named Z Street.

Lori Lowenthal Marcus, a talented journalist whose work regularly appears at the Jewish Press, created Z Street. Now the case has been settled. And the material is damning.

In late July 2010, an IRS agent truthfully responded to our lawyer’s query about why processing was taking so long: Z Street’s application was getting special scrutiny, the agent said, because it was related to Israel. Some applications for tax-exempt status were being sent to a special office in Washington for review of whether the applicants’ policy positions conflicted with those of the Obama administration.

The “honesty” made the Z Street case so crucial. Here was direct evidence of political targeting.

In August 2010, three other Jewish organizations applying for tax-exempt status were asked by the IRS to “explain their religious beliefs about the Land of Israel.”

Remember all the protests by Obama Inc. that we can’t screen refugees by religion? But they can certainly screen non-profit groups that way. As long as they’re pro-Israel.

Within weeks of President Obama’s inauguration, IRS and State Department officials began considering whether they could deny or revoke tax-exempt status for organizations that provided material support to Jews living across the Green Line—the nonborder that delineates pre-1967 Israel from the territories Israel acquired in the Six Day War. The theory was that a Jewish presence in those areas is inconsistent with U.S. policy. The IRS drew up lists of such organizations based on information from anti-Israel websites such as Electronic Intifada and MondoWeiss.

Those are both extreme hate sites. I don’t think I need to say much more about a site with “Intifada” in its name. Mondoweiss, despite its attempts at JVP-like efforts at adopting protective coloration by playing up some figment of Jewishness, is even worse.  read more

14 Comments on Obama Used IRS to Target Pro-Israel Orgs Based on Anti-Israel Hate Sites

  1. I’ve always felt he was groomed, marketed then surreptitiously placed in office by both foreign and internal players. Everything he did was corrosive to this republic.
    Some will say that that is obvious, but there had to be many people in our government who helped and that is very chilling.

  2. If the entire 8 years of Obama’s reign are brought into the light there is probably no limit to or level that they have used/applied to destroy the American way of life.

    Political ideology was the first criteria of everything they did. Starting with his manufactured family + first transvestite down to the very last foot out the door he wanted (and still does) America dead, dying, and overturned into an open border skunkhole.

  3. Trump has so much to do, and with all the pushback I wonder if he can get to the root of things. It doesn’t help that we have too many foot draggers and others lacking the courage to be more aggressive.
    Over a year into this and not one person in jail.

  4. I’d bet good money that “Bibi” Netanyahu has got a lot of information on Revrum Wright’s “God-Damn America”-hating, jug-eared, bomb-throwing, Communist-organizing, lying, Marxist, Muzlim Mallard (disguised as a Black man)!

    It is impossible to make a xan admit to a lie that xis livelihood depends on.

  6. Those mohammedans DO like a ‘good,’ pro-nazi website! I just wonder what Obumbles user-name was, on “Stormfront?” 😮

    Sounds like a great contest thread – guess Obumbles user name!
