Glenn Beck Battles Ron Paul Fan Accusing Him Of Being Part Of ‘Israeli Lobby’

video
» 83 comments

Glenn Beck has made a name for himself as a small government conservative, but that hasn’t exempted him from being a target of fans of Rep. Ron Paul. On his radio show this weekend, Beck debated caller “Tom,” a Ron Paul fan who was outraged by Beck’s support of Israel and accused him of taking “your 30 pieces of silver for Israel over America.”

RELATED: Eric Bolling: ‘What Percentage Of The Vote Would Ron Paul Get… If He Wasn’t For Legalizing Pot?’

Tom (in Florida), identified himself as a Ron Paul supporter and told Beck that he “definitely believed your interest in America is put after Israel… and you operate on behalf of Israel, and not America.” “I am an operative for Israel?” Beck asks, by way of clarification. The caller responds, “I believe you took your 30 pieces of silver for Israel over America.” Beck tried to get a clearer answer– whether he was an operative on the Israeli government’s payroll or merely a fan, but Tom responded that he was part of the “Israeli lobby” and asked, “what is your major problem with Ron Paul other than he don’t [sic] support Israel, he don’t support foreign aid?” Beck laughed off the idea that foreign policy was a small matter, asking Tom: “What’s your problem with Mitt Romney, other than he’s a big government guy?”

To help clarify Beck’s problem with Rep. Paul, co-host Pat Gray played a clip of Rep. Paul talking about “the gentleman” Osama Bin Laden‘s motivations for terrorism being caused by the United States. This devolved into an argument about America (in Tom’s words) “becoming the Soviet Union” in the 1990s and Beck and company mocking him when he could not prove he was not being paid by Ron Paul, and got the caller on the record as denying that either Bin Laden or Ahmadinejad were crazy.

“This guy’s crazy, I believe uneducated, a conspiracy theorist, and a bigot,” Beck later said, concluding that said allies like these did not help Rep. Paul’s cause.

    Unelected officials have taken over Washington and are orchestrating the daily news. 99% of the comments and replies you’re reading online come from an NSA software program spamming the internet. Comments are created before the stories are ever reported. The oldest, first, highest, best, and most popular rated comments are all propaganda. They are conducting Psy-ops (psychological operations) for domestic spying. They have 1000′s of handles and are determined to bury the truth and attack anyone leaking it.

    The next election is shaping up to be as big of a sham as the last. Do you know why Sarah Palin’s bus tour was really canceled? Do you know why she stayed 30 miles away from the second debate and chose the death of Steve Jobs to announce that she’s not running? Know what leaked out? Sarah Palin and Cain aren’t in the race for the same reason, the truth leaked out. The link in my name exposes the biggest cover up in history

    Glenn Beck SHOULD put Israel’s interests over the U.S.  All politicians do if they want Israel to remain a friend.

    I didn’t watch the video. I hate Beck’s guts. After reading the last sentence of this article, I puked a little in my mouth.
     
    “This guy’s crazy, I believe uneducated, a conspiracy theorist, and a bigot,” Beck later said, concluding that said allies like these did not help Rep. Paul’s cause.”
     
    After reading what the caller said, I agree with the caller, Beck sold his soul a long time ago.
     
    I wish Beck would just do us all a favor and move to Israel.
     
    You are not welcome here in America Beck. LEAVE!

    Glenn Beck is 100% behind protecting Israel’s interests, first. You can call me what ever kinda name you want. I stand for America first. So does Ron Paul. I am sick of Paul supporters being called an anti-semite because they may not be a bible believer who thinks Israel is God’s chosen people. Beck is flipping out because he realizes that Ron Paul is a force this time around and if he gets in the White House he is going to do what he says he will. And that is stop foreign aid to all countries and let Israel protect themselves. Ron Paul is a christian and I admire that, but his goals of stopping foreign aid and ending the protection of another country with American’s blood and money is not a biblical stance, it’s an American stance. Beck thinks Israel needs American blood and money to survive, and it is biblical to him. He is brainwashed into believing in this biblical battle in the book of Revelation is coming and he has combined that story with some other God that Ahmadinejad  believes is coming back soon, but only when there is enough destruction and yada yada yada… Ron Paul is the crazy one! The same armageddon story people have been using to make money off of for years. We are the conspiracy therorist for what again? Are we the ones wearing the tin-foil hat?

    Among other things, the US is in the middle east to protect Israel. That is in our interest. The reason that is important as a priority, and fully in US interests is that Israel is thought to have nuclear weapons and would likely use them if seriously threatened. Is that true, Moshe, does Israel have nuclear weapons? If so, you can well imagine why Iran wants to be MAD too.

    Please reference any links to where Glenn ever wrote or said he puts Israel’s interest ABOVE the U.S.A.’s. Good luck finding that. What everybody either fails to realize or just doesn’t mention is that OUR country was founded on Christian Beliefs. The Bible plainly states that the Jews are God’s chosen people and any one or any Nation that does not align themselves with the Jews are not following Christ’s biblical teachings.

    I’m not going to take the time to look up scriptures and I certainly am not a good enough christian myself to know them by memory. We (America) turn our back on Israel and we will swiftly move into a direction where chaos will become worse. This is the basic fundamental reason so many Americans have strong views on standing by Israel’s side and help them whenever possible. It doesn’t mean we put them first. There is a huge difference.

    So if you disagree with Beck on endless bankrupting wars in the Middle East you’re an anti-semite. For a Conservative, Beck sounds just like a Progressives as he instinctively goes to the race card when his views are challenged. Hey, I’d be frustrated too if my Woodrow Wilson dreams of endless Progressive wars for Democracy and the encroaching US police state were being exposed to more and more Americans every day as a cancer on this country. 

    Want to know why Iran was radicalized and hates America? Ever hear of Operation Ajax? Look it up. In 1953 the democratically elected Iranian prime minister Mosaddegh was removed from power in a coup organised and carried out by the United States CIA at the request of the British MI6. Why did they do that? Because the British were against Mosaddegh attempting to nationalize their oil industry. Guess who they put in his place? The Shah. The Shah then had a 20 year rein of terror and brutalized the Iranian people leading to the rise of fundamentalist Islam and Ayatollah Khomeini. (Does this sound vaguely familiar? It is, because it’s exactly what we did in Egypt by backing dictator Mubarrek who got rid of moderate opposition parties leaving the Islamic Brotherhood to be a big fish in a little pond. Now they are winning the elections) After Iran was radicalized you know who we covertly supported in a war with them? Yes, Saddam Hussein. Then we turned on him when he invaded Kuwait. Now we’ve spent a TRILLION dollars getting rid of him.US foreign policy has been schizophrenic in the Middle East for 50 years and it’s time to stop taking one step forward and two steps backwards. Can we all agree it’s never in US interests to financially back a dictator? Can we all agree there is such a thing as blowback? Can we all agree with Reagan who said his biggest mistake was putting troops in Lebanon and not realizing the insanity of Middle East politics?

    Yes, indeed. But then I’m not an anti-semite. I’m an anti-zionist and anti-those-jews-who-put-the-interests-of-israel-before-that-of-their-own-country-ist.

    P.S. Here’s another quote from N: “…perhaps the young stock-exchange Jew is altogether the most disgusting invention of mankind.” N said many things. But I would say you’re correct in that he despised the anti-semite more than the semite.

    You all forget that the Israelite are waiting for the return of the Messiah and that is why they want Muslims to relocate the Al Aqsar Mosque [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Al-Aqsa_Mosque] to ANOTHER Muslim country (how crazy is that) to prepare for his return… I am not making this up since I have heard this claim from some Jews themselves.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jewish_Messiah
    Historical:
    In Jewish eschatology, the term came to refer to a future Jewish King from the Davidic line, who will be “anointed” with holy anointing oil and rule the Jewish people during the Messianic Age. In Standard Hebrew, The Messiah is often referred to as, Mélekh ha-Mashíaẖ (in the Tiberian vocalization pronounced Méleḵ hamMāšîªḥ), literally meaning “the anointed king.”

    Traditional and current Orthodox thought have mainly held that the Messiah will be the anointed one (messiah), descended from his father through the Davidic line of King David via Solomon (See Rabbi Aryeh Kaplan), who will gather the Jews back into the Land of Israel, usher in an era of peace, build the Third Temple, have a male heir and re-institute the Sanhedrin, among other things.

    So if you make this a religious debate then put all the FACTS on the table.

    There is a long debate of the land being a place of worship for the Jews
    which I don’t deny it, but history played a role and it made it a
    special place for Muslims as well and it became a major place of WORSHIP for them at the start of Muslim era too. Muslims never had a problem for
    centuries sharing the grounds with Jews nor Christians in the city. Only shortly
    after the 1960s Occupation of Palestine did this become a problem because of the things the ORTHODOX JEWS started doing. If you claim that
    Orthodox Muslims are crazy then also CLAIM that orthodox Jews are just
    as crazy too. The problem WILL NEVER GO AWAY if Americans ALLOW Israel to have Americans FUND their TERROR and we only SIDE with Israel. So that is why Muslims formed Terror groups, which I don’t agree with, but they are pretty much cornered in a corner. We would do the same and Israel would do the same. Just ask yourself what would you do if you were in the Palestinian’s situation?

    So that is why we constantly are reminded about the Holocaust and the sufferings the Jews have gone through so we Americans feel sorry and to keep on HELPING them. JUST ASK YOURSELF THIS QUESTION: Would America need to HELP Israel Financially if there was PEACE in the Middle East? I would strongly say NO… I am not denying the fact that Holocaust didn’t happen and I am also not denying the fact that a similar event is taking place against the Palestinians with OUR MONEY AND WEAPONS. SO IS THAT FAIR? WILL WE TURN A BLIND EYE, SIT AND LET IT CONTINUE? If you think I am talking non sense then do your own research and look at Jewish groups in America [http://www.jewishvoiceforpeace.org], Europe and in Israel acknowledging this problem and see what they say about their own Israeli government.

    We need to STOP ALL lobbying groups from taking OVER OUR CONGRESS and EXECUTIVE BRANCH for their gain because in the end the WORKING CLASS (99%) is getting shafted… AND things will only get worse if we let it continue… SO LET’S WAKE UP AND STOP LISTENING TO PEOPLE THAT WILL CONVINCE US OTHERWISE…

    When will you realize loudmoutsh like Beck and Limbaugh just make your party look like ****? Same with Fox News. Fox News has damaged the GOP beyond repair, just look at the chain of events since they became popular after 9/11. Since then it’s all been downhill and what has increased? Fox News viewers.

    From what I can see.. the more Fox News Viewers there are, the worse the actual GOP does.

    I bet if you lined up the graphs you’d see approval of Congress, the GOP, Democrats, and everything go down once Fox News starts to gain a decent amount of viewers… it’s cause they are a 24/7 shit slinging network with no moral center. They bring us all down, they brought all the Republican candidates down after propping them up with bullshit and sensationalism. They rail against actual conservatives like Ron Paul… and they have totally ruined the somewhat congenial mood that used to exist in congress. America sort of used to be a team.. until Fox News decided it was going to do everything it could to divide America. It’s kinda sad they exist, they serve no purpose, they do no service, studies show people know less after watching, all they seem to do is provide piece of mind to those who hate everything or always think the glass is half empty.

    Fox News is probably the most negative station on television and only makes it’s viewers miserable.

    I think what all the pro-Ron Paul people fail to realize is that foreign aid isn’t just giving out handouts to countries we Americans like.  We’re giving money to protect our own interests in the region.  For example,  in the case of Israel, we rely significantly on intelligence in the region from the Mossad.  The real danger with Ron Paul and his supporters isn’t the bigotry, which is all too often apparent, but the naivete.

    Personally I do not think the caller is nuts.  Most people do not follow the issues or politics anymore but most people are starting to feel the pain now due to not paying attention for so long.  Once someone wakes up it then takes time to understand the problems, understand the history of the problems, and then begin to understand how some solutions may then work.  So I expect that calls like this will happen on all sides.  The difference though is that once people start to get some of the things Paul is saying they start to see how the problems have become to be and they get energize towards changing the country.  But then we get attacked.  I watch different blogs and have noticed different supports go after each other some what and compare but once they know you are a Ron Paul supporter the attacks become more personal, he is crazy, nuts, out of his mind, unelectable, no decent person would take him seriously, etc. And these types of attacks feel like someone trumping on the tea party principles, stepping on the flag, spitting on our country, and the feeling of us being called the same.  It is a different treatment and you think we attack, I think we spend more time talking the issues, explaining the principles, etc and to a great extent defending Ron Paul against stuff that is absolutely not true.

    Ultimately the guy knows there is a problem and probably feels like Paul is telling the truth because it seems so different than the status quo and more like what made this country so great.
