Obama “Deeply Concerned” Over Sentencing Of Journalists
Washintgon, D.C.–Now that the two journalists have been sentenced, President Obama has remarked that he’s “deeply concerned” over their sentencing by North Korea, and that the White House “is engaged in all possible channels to secure their release.”
Amnesty International also criticized the sentencing of the two journalists. Roseann Rife, Amnesty International’s Asia-Pacific deputy director, said, “No access to lawyers, no due process, no transparency: the North Korean judicial and penal systems are more instruments of suppression than of justice.”

Where was Obama’s “deep concern” when terrorists were killing soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan? Where was Amnesty International’s outrage as soldiers died? Suddenly, two journalists are taken-journalists that have a leftist vantage point-and now there’s concern across the mainstream media.
Yet, none of the outrage was exhibited at Saddam Hussein when hundreds of thousands were butchered. And one more question: Where is Obama’s concern for the state of Israel?
I guess he’s only deeply concerened when it comes time to address the Muslim world. The bottom line is that these people make me sick. Their hypocricy and hatred for this country makes me want to throw up, but now they’re somehow concerned when one of their colleagues on the left are in harm’s way, but as far as Obama is concerned, he can tell Israel to bend over and kiss their butt goodbye.
Truly sickening!
