GLENN: I also want to encourage you to read what's posted on the first page of glennbeck.com. It's the Weather Underground manifesto. We told you that this is the stuff that's coming our way. They are talking now about a revolution, a united front. Well, that is exactly what they have put together, a united front. They have the labor unions. They have ACORN. They have the democratic party. They have every communist organization you can think of. They have many of our churches they have co opted. They have a united front. It says their task is not driving capitalism out but overthrowing its whole existence. For us here, throwing it out means not from one colony but all of them, throwing them out of the world, throwing it out, overthrowing it, over throwing the whole existence. When I read that, I remember the words of Van Jones. If you remember what Van Jones said in his green speech about a year or so ago.
JONES: this deeper than a solar panel, deeper than a solar panel. Don't stop there. Don't stop there. We're going to change the whole system. We're going to change the whole thing. We're not going to put a new battery in a broken system. We want a new system. We want a new system.
GLENN: Listen. And the crowd goes wild. It is really important that you understand who these people are and the code language and you cannot dismiss anything. The President was tied to Rashid Khalidi and Rashid Khalidi was, well, he's not really a friend of the President's and, well, he's not really that bad, yada yada yada yada. Just know that Rashid Khalidi, this is what the President said in a going away reception kind of thing for Khalidi. He talked about that he had been a consistent reminder to me of my own blind spots and my own biases. It is for that reason that I am hoping that for many years to come we continue that conversation, a conversation that is necessary not just around Mona and Rashid's dinner table but around this entire world. That is the President of the United States and what he said about Rashid Khalidi, that they used to have conversations at a dinner table all the time and it was all about, how we move as a people.
PAT: They were friends.
GLENN: Oh, they are big friends.
PAT: He was asked about it, you know, because Khalidi has well known terrorist ties. He's got sympathies with Palestinian terrorists and he's never, as far as I know, denounced those ties and so the President was asked about him and he said, oh, yeah, I know Rashid Khalidi and he's a professor, he teaches, and that's where he left it.
GLENN: Hamas is the Muslim brotherhood's Palestinian arm. Rashid Khalidi has now signed an appeal for funds to outfit another ship like the peace flotilla that would try to break Israeli's blockage of Gaza, the territory controlled by Hamas. Rashid Khalidi, a good friend of the President, Bill Ayers, his wife was part of the last one. This one Rashid Khalidi. This ship he wants to send out and break the blockade. The name of the ship, the Audacity Of Hope. Time to make your neighbors up, my friend. Time to wake your neighbors up.
