Dept of Defense hires LA Times columnist who belittled terror ‘threat’

Richard Baehr
The Weekly Standard blog notes 

LA Times columnist Rosa Brooks once wrote that al Qaeda was “little more than an obscure group of extremist thugs, well financed and intermittently lethal but relatively limited in their global and regional political pull. On 9/11, they got lucky. . . . Thanks to U.S. policies, al Qaeda has become the vast global threat the administration imagined it to be in 2001.” She’s now headed to Obama’s Defense Department.

 

This lady is Barbara Ehrenreich’s  daughter. Ehrenreich has gotten rich off her book Nickle and Dimed, which is required reading  at many colleges, as it bemoans the helplessness of Wal-Mart employees. [Barbara Ehrenreich is part of the Progressive Democrats of America]

Brooks, of course, is highly pedigreed: Harvard, Oxford, Yale Law, and she worked for Harold Koh, just appointed to Justice Department.

The LA Times ran an op-ed by Ehnrereich’s son just a couple of weeks ago that was a left-wing rant. Nepotism in the newspaper business is just generally not a good idea.

Then ADD THIS:

OBAMA NOMINATES A VIRULENT AMERICA HATER, JEW HATER, ROSA BROOKS, TO KEY POSITION IN DEFENSE  DEPARTMENT

Rosa Brooks is Obama’s latest enemy appointment — as adviser to Defense Undersecretary for Policy Michele Flournoy. This choice rips the mask off the traitor in the Oval office. Brooks is a rabid leftist  journalist who, up until this appointment, wrote for the corrupt LA Times.

Brooks is a Soros cohort: she has been Special Counsel to the President at Soros’s Open Society Institute.

And Brooks worked for Honjou Koh, the pro Sharia lawyer and transnationalist now at the State Department.

She called Cheney and Bush psychos to be dealt with like psychos, referring to their “crimes”.

She is the most radical person to join the Obama revolutionary counsel so far.

This is like bringing Medea Benjamin into the Pentagon, or Michael Moore. (hat tip Amaros)

OBAMA CHOOSES ANOTHER DANGEROUS TRAITOR IN THE ADMINISTRATION RECENT APPOINTMENT AND NO FRIEND OF ISRAEL. (hat tip D’vorah)

WHO IS ROSA BROOKS?

A Radical in the Defense Department

The appointment of Rosa Brooks to a mid level post in the defense department has largely gone under the radar, however it is one of the most perplexing and radical appointments of the Obama administration. Brooks, most recently an L.A. Times columnist, now heads to the Pentagon.

A number of journalists, coping with the industry downturn, have already headed to work in the government.

 

In her latest column, Brooks called for a bailout of the newspaper industry. Brooks, like many journalists, was a frequent critic of the Bush administration’s policy on the GWOT. Of course, Brooks criticism goes beyond mere criticism and into the looney conspiracy theories and deranged hate.

Now, LA Times columnist Rosa Brooks — who’s taking a job as an adviser in the Pentagon

In her latest column, Brooks called for a bailout of the newspaper industry. Brooks, like many journalists, was a frequent critic of the Bush administration’s policy on the GWOT. Of course, Brooks criticism goes beyond mere criticism and into the looney conspiracy theories and deranged hate.

For the many Americans who read of Karadzic’s arrest but wondered, “Yes, great — and when will George W. Bush and Dick Cheney face trial for war crimes?” this is something to keep in mind. Karadzic was the leader of a small, unrecognized rogue republic and presided over a genocide — but he evaded justice for more than a decade and still keeps a loyal fan base.

Look at this seditious insanity. Close your eyes and listen: this could be coming from Chavez, Kim Jong Il, Qadafi ….

Bush in the Dock? Don’t bet on it Rosa Brooks LA TIMES

This coming to the Defense department. Feeling safer?

In her role in the Pentagon, Brooks will have significant security clearance. That means that the proprietor of the sort of lunacy I just linked will have access to more of our secrets than many Congress and Senators.

Brooks quote: “Hamas has fired thousands of unguided Kassam rockets at Israel, but the rockets have killed only a handful of Israelis”. Only a handful of Jews slaughtered. She sounds sad.

Israel can’t bomb its way to peace

The assault on Gaza has more to do with internal politics than its national security.

 The U.S. needs to reengage forcefully in a Mideast peace process.
Rosa Brooks
January 1, 2009

It’s a new year in an old and bloody world.

In Israel, politicians jockeying for power have launched the most lethal military assault on Palestinian territory in decades. Israel has justified its bombardment of Gaza on the grounds that Hamas broke a fragile, temporary cease-fire. The Israeli government is right to consider Hamas’ rocket attacks on Israeli civilians inexcusable, but the timing of the Israeli military offensive has more to do with politics than anything else.

Adding to the time pressure is U.S. President-elect Barack Obama’s upcoming inauguration. As long as President Bush was in the White House, Israel could count on a U.S. administration that wasn’t merely “supportive” of Israel but blindly, mindlessly so. Obama may be less willing to offer Israel blank checks. Thus this New Year’s military offensive, timed for the crucial window before Israeli elections and Obama’s swearing-in.

In a strictly military sense, Israel will “win” this battle against Hamas. For all its threats and bravado, Hamas is weak, and its weapons — terrorism, homemade rockets — are the weapons of the weak. Since 2001, Hamas has fired thousands of unguided Kassam rockets at Israel, but the rockets have killed only a handful of Israelis.

Israel’s military, in contrast, is one of the most modern and effective in the world (thanks in part to an annual $3 billion in U.S. aid). Israel can easily bottle up the tiny Gaza Strip and its 1.5 million people. On Saturday, the first day of the offensive, Israeli bombs killed at least 180 Palestinians. By Wednesday, the Palestinian death toll exceeded 390.

The Israeli assault may even strengthen Hamas in the longer run and weaken its more moderate secular rival, Fatah. As Israel should know by now (as we all should know), dropping bombs in densely populated areas is a surefire way to radicalize civilians and get them to rally around the home team, however flawed.
