Why isn't Rahm Emmanuel in Guantanamo?

Many of you know that President Elect Barack Obama appointed zionist Rahm Emmanuel as his Chief of Staff. Maybe even some of you know that his father was a member of a known zionist terrorist organization (Irgun).

I want you to now just think about the fact that during the first Gulf War, Rahm Emmanuel, an American citizen, chose to volunteer for a foreign army (israeli army) rather than enlist in the military of his citizenship. Now please explain to me how it is not a conflict of interest for him to be appointed any post in the United States Government.

What is the take-home message here?

One person acts on his beliefs, joins the army of another country and gets thrown into Guantanamo, while another acts on his beliefs, joins the army of another country and ends up as the US Chief of Staff!!!

Obama Setting a Dangerous Tone with Emanuel

Not even 48 hours has passed since Barack Obama was chosen as President Elect and he has already made some dangerous moves regarding his choice for Chief of Staff, Rahm Emmanuel - son of an Irgun member (an Israeli terrorist group). Here is the Wiki version (but you can Google him and see loads of biographies on him (note that Emmanuel himself served as a volunteer in the ISRAELI defense forces during the first Gulf War despite being an American citizen - NOT in the American military - it looks like he has picked his side):

Personal life

Rahm Emanuel (Hebrew: רם עמנואל‎) was born in Chicago, Illinois.^{[citation needed]} His first name, Rahm, means "high" or "lofty" in Hebrew^[8], while his last name, Emanuel, means "God is with us." His father, the Jerusalem-born Benjamin M. Emanuel, is a pediatrician and former member of the Irgun^[9][10] (Irgun Zeva'i Le'ummi), a military Nationalist group treated as a terrorist organization during British rule. His mother, Martha Smulevitz, worked as an X-ray technician and was the daughter of a local union organizer.^[2] She became a civil rights activist; she was also once the owner of a Chicago-area rock and roll club.^[9] The two met in Chicago in the 1950s.^[11] Emanuel's older brother, Ezekiel, is an oncologist and bioethicist, and his brother Ari is a talent agent in Los Angeles who inspired Jeremy Piven's character Ari Gold on the HBO series Entourage.^[2] Emanuel himself is the inspiration for the character Josh Lyman on The West Wing.^[2] He also has a younger sister named Shoshanna, 14 years his junior.^[2]

When his family lived in Chicago, he attended Bernard Zell Anshe Emet Day School, a Jewish day school. After his family moved to Wilmette, he attended public school: Romona School, Wilmette Junior High School, and New Trier West High School.^[11][12] He graduated from Sarah Lawrence College in 1981, and went on to receive a master's degree in Speech and Communication from Northwestern University in 1985. While still an undergraduate, he joined the congressional campaign of David Robinson of Chicago.^{[citation needed]}

His father, still practicing near Chicago, emigrated to the United States from Israel. Emanuel volunteered as a civilian volunteer in the Israel Defense Forces during the 1991 Gulf War, serving in one of Israel's northern bases, rust-proofing brakes.^[13][14]

Emanuel's wife Amy Rule, a graduate of the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania converted to Modern Orthodox Judaism shortly before her wedding.^[13] They are members of Anshe Shalom, a modern Orthodox congregation in Chicago.^[15] They have three children, son Zacharias and daughters Ilana and Leah.

Emanuel is a long time close friend of fellow Chicagoan David Axelrod, Chief Strategist for the 2008 Barack Obama presidential campaign. Axelrod signed the ketubah at Emanuel's wedding, an honor that goes to a best friend.^[16]

Rabbi Asher Lopatin of Anshe Sholom B'nai Israel Congregation, is quoted as saying: "It's a very involved Jewish family"; "Amy was one of the teachers for a class for children during the High Holidays two years ago."^[15] Emanuel has said of his Judaism: "I am proud of my heritage and treasure the values it has taught me."^[15] Emanuel's family lives on the North Side of Chicago, in the North Center neighborhood.^[8]

Emanuel trains for and participates in triathlons.^[17]
