Good grief! Here's MediaMatters' audio and analysis on that bit of idiocy. If you would like to understand the bigger picture, and just how completely bizarre Beck's theory that George Soros is a dangerous "puppet master" out to conquer the world, MediaMatters puts Beck's entire nut-ball conspiracy theory into context, starting here.
Okay, so far we have President Ahmadinejad, of Iran, and billionaire philanthropist, George Soros, that might be Beck's Biblical, eschatological Antichrist, right? Who else is trying to take over the world? Oh yeah, those dadgum heathen Chinamen.
From the October 21st edition of Premiere Radio Networks' The Glenn Beck Program:
BECK: China owns, I believe, it's 98% of all the rare minerals... ummm... in the world now. They have been over, buying up huge, huge swaths of, ahh. . . Africa, and buying up all of the minerals. These minerals make things like cell phones and computer chips. They own all of the minerals. They also own all of the minerals that are required in solar panels. They are currently saying that they are not going to share them with anybody in the world. So they will corner those markets. We will be a slave to China, and I mean the rest of the world, as well, because, the Chinese will go for their own security first. You know, everything bad they say about the United States, that "Oh, we'll . . . we'll just get in bed with dictators', and we have. We at least try to be decent human beings. We're talking about a country that drowns people in rice patties, has a one child policy. This is not a good regime. If you think they're going to stabilize the rest of the world, or they care about the rest of the world, they won't. "Give us our stuff!' And they will stabilize their country first. Who do you think is going to be able to defend themselves against a China? What do you think is going to happen? If the world goes into chaos, China will control the world. And, what they'll do is, they'll just make deals with anybody. "Oh, you can run Mexico, go ahead run Mexico, I don't care what it looks like, give us the oil in the Gulf of Mexico, we'll keep you safe. Thugs, and horrid regimes will be tolerated, because there will be no one that stands for liberty.
Here's MediaMatters audio and analysis. This would of course suggest that the current President of the People's Republic of China, Hu Jintao, would have to be on Glenn's list of people most likely to be the Antichrist. Let's see, which other world leader, with the ability to blast Planet Earth to smithereens, does Glenn Beck rail against on a hourly, day to day basis? Gee, I can't think of anyone else that Beck hates enough to think that he might be the Anti... oh wait just one darn minute, I wonder if he might be suggesting that the current President of the United States, Barack Obama, is the Antichrist? You bet he is.
Bill O'Reilly is right for once. It's time to call the authorities. Frickus and Frackus, the Messiah twins, are on the loose.
How petrified must the world's nuclear powers be, as they hear fundamentalist, messianic nutbirds, like Frickus and Frackus, portray our current American President as the Antichrist, and that the End of Days are just around the corner?
Do you suppose that world leaders, like Putin, and Hu, follow the lunatic rants of American commentators like Limbaugh and Beck? They are, after all, leading America's Republican Party around like a bunch of hapless lemmings. Putin and Hu might just put a lot of credence in that old saying "Keep your friends close and your enemies closer".
Can you imagine what those leaders must be thinking if they watched Glenn Beck's April 25, 2008 interview of author Joel Rosenberg? It was a full hour segment titled "Honest Questions about the End of Days". Here's how he introduced Rosenberg.
BECK: Could these current world events be signs that we're closer to the end of days?
Author Joel Rosenberg, hailed as a modern Nostradamus, has a new book out. It's called "Dead Heat." It takes you inside a presidential race and asks what role, if any, does the U.S. play in the last days? It may be fiction, but tonight it will seem a little more real.
Tonight, honest questions about the end of days, with Joel Rosenberg for the full hour.
Oh my. I sure do hope that Rosenberg and Beck don't say anything that'll give Putin, or Hu, itchy trigger fingers.
BECK: Let me -- I just want to go through a laundry list of a couple of things. First of all, Putin, is it possible he's Gog?
ROSENBERG: Its possible. There -- Ezekiel 38 says that a dictator with an evil intent will rise to power in Russia and form military alliances all throughout the Middle East. That's certainly what Putin is doing. Is he Gog? Too early to say. He's certainly Gog-esque.
BECK: OK. He's Gog-esque. Very nice.Next Page 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7
