Today Genocide book author Samantha Power was on all of the Sunday Talking Heads. My letter to Obama on August 21st needs to be reprinted for everyone to see who this racists, bigot and moron is as our new American Ambassador.

An Open Letter
President Barack Obama
The White House
Dear President Obama:
In her book, “A Problem From Hell: America and the Age of Genocide” Samantha Power had a total recall of the grotesque genocides of the 20th century recounting the 180 million victims—but she omitted 1.7 million Greeks killed in that genocide. How appalling!
Her total recall of the crimes of the Holocaust and those of Pol Pot—omits any reference to 1.5 million Serbs liquidated by their Croat, Muslim and Albanian Nazi neighbors just 60 years ago. This was no editorial accident; her convenient amnesia of these events reveals a sinister contempt for human rights that the Obama administration conveniently sweeps under the nearest rug. Employing this bigot and racists is appalling.
Today we see the media pounding their chests that 58 Orthodox Coptic churches in Egypt have been destroyed, but it was the Clinton, Bush and Obama administrations that totally ignored the 650 Serbian Orthodox churches that were destroyed—98 in Croatia in 1991, 250 in Bosnia in 1992-95 and 515 in Kosovo after the arrival of 17,000 NATO troops in 1999 after 78 days of bombing.
In the October 1996 issue of The New Republic, Ms. Power's poison penmanship flowed like a sewer and it was vile as she reserved her best racist terminology for Jovan Zametica whom she described as having “a Muslim father and a half-Serb, half-German mother and like the Turkish Janissaries, he has been over compensating for his ‘impure’ blood ever since.” Apparently Ms. Power spent too much time in Bosnia, as her kind of race-baiting terminology is what caused the Bosnian Civil War. How you as our president could employ such a racist hypocrite reveal a lot about you as president.
Jovan Zametica considers himself a Serbian. With a degree in history from the University of Liverpool, a Master’s Degree and Ph.D. in International history from Cambridge University, Ms. Power's journalistic credentials pale in comparison. What her article did reveal was her real talent for manipulating the emotions of prejudice, something that you as president take full advantage of at every opportunity.
I remind you Mr. President, the ‘Janissaries’ were the elite Storm Troopers of the Ottoman Empire. Their “slave tax” forcibly took Serbian sons at the age of 5 from their parents and sent them off to Turkey where they were trained to hate and murder. As young adults, these ‘Janissaries’ were sent back to the Balkans to murder their Serbian parents whom they no longer recognized. As a member of Obama's staff no American should rely on any advice that may come out of Power's ugly and bigoted mind.
Shame on you, Mr. President, for putting such a creature on your staff.
