Also on hand was Republican presidential contender Michele Bachmann, (R-MN) who thrilled the crowd with her pledge to move the American Embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem “on the day that I am sworn into office” and her assertion that “Israel will never be up for grabs – not one inch, not one acre, not one square foot will ever be on the chopping block.” Bachmann said that “Israel needs a friend, but when it looks at the White House, it does not see one.”
Asserting that Iranian President Ahmadinejad was “striving for a second Holocaust” Bachman said that “once again millions of Jews are at the precipice of losing their lives today”. She called for the US Navy to impose a complete naval blockade on Iran, for the US to deploy comprehensive ballistic missile systems “on land, sea, air and in space” and for the Pentagon to prepare “war plans” in order to counter Iran’s nuclear threat.
Ahmadinejad, she said, “will seek to use nuclear weapons against the US as well – and the US will learn what it is to be Israel if it does not act quickly.” She said that the US Secretary of Defense, Secretary of State and CIA director must all support this “freedom policy” and that those in the bureaucracy who fail to do so – “especially in the State Department” – should be replaced.
Beck, for his part, delivered an apocalyptic address which lasted for more than an hour which interwove the Holocaust with current affairs. He said that the situation is worse today than when Hitler was threatening to annihilate the Jews, because today the world is “aiding and abetting” the ranting of madmen who are out to destroy Israel and the Jewish people.
