ISIS Backs South Carolina, Will Also Fly Confederate Flag

"Calling it a proud symbol of a heritage worth honoring, ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi staunchly backed South Carolina’s efforts to fly the Confederate flag over government buildings and said the Caliphate was considering adopting the flag itself.

“The Confederate flag stands for racism, slavery, treason, oppression, discrimination. In other words, everything that’s awesome!” al-Baghdadi told The Israeli Daily.

Al-Baghdadi admitted that the flag was a bit tainted by the fact that most Confederate citizens were infidels, but the self-appointed Caliph said such concerns were outweighed by the righteous Confederate values of keeping minorities as slaves and destroying one’s own country in an effort to overthrow the government."

Perhaps when some more folks realize the traditional Confederate flag is equivalent to the ISIS and Nazi flags, then maybe some more Americans will have the same epiphany about the Dixie Swastika as they have had on "traditional" marriage.

Report: ‘Megalomaniac’ Obama to Run for Kenyan Presidency

With just over a year and a half left of his second term, U.S. President Barack Obama is planning to contest the next Kenyan presidential election, according to a controversial FOX News report.

Citing what it claims are well-placed White House sources and leaked extracts of his draft presidential memoir, the 12-minute “Exposed: Obama’s Blackprint for World Domination” levels multiple allegations against the U.S. president, going so far as to outline his alleged “multi-stage plan for enslaving the world’s Caucasian population.” ...https://www.theisraelidaily.com/report-megalomaniac-obama-to-run-for-kenyan-presidency/
