A very disturbing situation involving John Kerry and Michelle Obama

[BobaFett1]

This woman, Samira Ibrahim, an Egyptian women's rights activist was supposed to be honored by the State Department tomorrow in Washington receiving the International Woman of Courage Award. Scheduled to attend Secretary John Kerry and First Lady Michelle Obama, who is set to laud her for challenging Egypt's so-called virginity test where women were abused by government doctors.

Now there's no question Miss Ibrahim has shown bravery but she's also shown something else. Anti-Semitism and anti-Americanism. At the attack in Bulgaria last summer that killed five Jews Miss Ibrahim tweeted "Today is a very sweet day with a lot of sweet news."

Last August she quoted Adolf Hitler. "No act contrary to morality, no crime against society, takes place except with the Jews having a hand in it."

And when a mob attacked the U.S. Embassy in Cairo last September 11th Miss Ibrahim tweeted "Today is the anniversary of 9/11, may every year come with America burning."

Amazing right, that this woman, this woman was chosen by the U.S. State Department to be honored? "The Weekly Standard" edited by Fox News guy Bill Kristol who first exposed the madness and today the State Department surrendered.

VICTORIA NULAND: We at the department became aware very late in the process about Samira Ibrahim's alleged public comments. After careful consideration we've decided that we should defer preventing this award to Miss Ibrahim this year so that we have a chance to look further into these statements.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

O'REILLY: Careful consideration, please? "Careful consideration" should have gone into choosing the international honorees and obviously it did not. For the record, Miss Ibrahim says her Twitter account was hacked, but that's hokum. Her statements have been displayed for months without her ever taking them down.

The secretary's position speaks for the chaos that is the U.S. Department of State. We saw it in Benghazi, Libya. We are seeing it again now. John Kerry better reorganize this very important department quickly. It is an acute embarrassment to America.

And that's "The Memo."

JOhn Kerry what a joke.

[spursncowboys]

In afghanistan the way they treat women, I think they should honor her. When I was in Aghanistan, in the Chapaharra district, they let girls go to school in the afternoon. They weren't allowed to have pencils, books, etc. In the year I was there, atleast 15 teachers were killed and 20 girls killed. Constant RPG attacks into the school. What I'm getting at is the bravery it takes just to walk to school is incredible and for them to have a spokeswoman who was shot by the Taliban and still fights for girl's education should be acknowledged.
Throughout the middle east, they are taught that the Nazi's were doing a good thing, and Jews are bad. The only thing to counter that is the promotion of more education.

Great point sir.

[spursfan09]

So let another country honor her then. Not one the one she posts hateful comments about.

[mrsmaalox]

It says in the posted article that she is not being honored.

[boutons_deux]

"only thing to counter that is the promotion of more education."

like the "Christians" promote their anti-scientific, hate-filled "education" in USA? :lol

[Winehole23]

It says in the posted article that she is not being honored.never let reading interfere with a good story. there's really no need to when you've got entertainers like Bill O'Reilly telling you what to think.

[spursncowboys]

You want to deport piers morgan too?

[spursfan09]

Who said anything about deportation? And yes I did read that she was not being honored after all. I was just saying if another country wants to recognize it then so be it.
