(CNN) -- President-elect Barack Obama was considering who will be on his transition team long before Tuesday's election declared him the nation's leader, and several Republicans were on the short list.

Obama is looking at many Democrats -- most notably, Rep. Rahm Emanuel, who helped choreograph the party's 2006 House takeover -- but he also is thinking about bringing GOP Sens. Chuck Hagel and Dick Lugar on board, according to sources close to the president-elect.

Also, the sources say Obama is considering adding Robert Gates -- Bush's defense secretary -- to his national security team. Gates has served in Bush's cabinet for almost two years. He worked for the Central Intelligence Agency for 27 years, serving as its director from 1991 through 1993. He also served as deputy national security adviser under President George H. W. Bush.

President elect Barack Obama’s first appointment, Rahm Emanuel, who is set to become chief-of-staff, is the son of a member of the Zionist terrorist group Irgun, which was responsible for bombing hotels, marketplaces as well as the infamous Deir Yassin massacre, in which hundreds of Palestinian villagers were slaughtered.

Irgun has been labeled a terrorist organization by both The New York Times newspaper http://select.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.htm...BIrgun&st=p and by the Anglo-American Committee of Enquiry. http://select.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.htm...BIrgun&st=p

Irgun was closely affiliated with the widely feared hardcore terrorist Stern Gang, an organization that carried out assassinations, train bombings and bombed police stations in an attempt to pave the way for unrestricted immigration of Jews into Palestine. Irgun operated in Palestine between 1931 and 1948.

Buses and marketplaces were also a target for Irgun, who were widely chastised for favoring attacks against civilian targets.

The widely condemned Deir Yassin massacre, which occurred in April 1948, involved Irgun working in consort with the Stern Gang and going house to house slaughtering Palestinian villagers. Eyewitness accounts of spies working for mainstream Jewish authorities, such as Meir Pa’il, reported Irgun members running around shooting civilians “full of lust for murder”.

“I saw the horrors that the fighters had created. I saw bodies of women and children, who were murdered in their houses in cold blood by gunfire, with no signs of battle and not as the result of blowing up the houses,” said eyewitness Eliahu Arbel.

“[One body was] a woman who must have been eight months pregnant,” noted Jacques de Reynier, a French-Swiss Representative of the International Red Cross, “He hit in the stomach, with powder burns on her dress indicating she’d been shot point-blank.”.

The son of a man who helped carry out this slaughter has now been selected by Obama to be his chief-of-staff. Cries of “sins of the father” lose their gusto when one considers the fact that, after the 1996 re-election of Bill Clinton, Rahm Emanuel “Was so angry at the president’s enemies that he stood up at a celebratory dinner with colleagues from the campaign, grabbed a steak knife and began rattling off a list of betrayers, shouting ‘Dead! … Dead! … Dead!’ and plunging the knife into the table after every name.” "When he was done, the table looked like a lunar landscape," one campaign veteran recalls. "It was like something out of The Godfather. But that's Rahm for you." Sounds like a nice guy. http://www.rollingstone.com/politics/story...6/the_enforcer/

Rahm Emanuel is also an enthusiastic supporter of the United States Public Service Academy Act, a lobbying group founded in 2006 in order to promote the foundation of an American public service academy modeled on the military academies - a youth corps whose students would be trained in “civilian internship in the armed forces”. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States...Service_Academy

This rings the alarm bells when we recall Obama’s pledge to create a “civilian national security force” that is “just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded” as the U.S. military. http://www.americanthinker.com/2008/07/oba...onal_secur.html A creepy You Tube video of a brown-shirt style Obama youth brigade chanting and marching military style emerged last month, raising fears about where the messianic cult-like status of Obama’s image could eventually lead. http://principalitiesandpowers.blogspot.co...for-change.html

I thought Obama was a communist, not a facist? Or was that secret muslim fundie? So confusing.

Think people should wait until after Obama puts forward his team, not rumors a few days after elections. Then he can gets ripped a new one.

yep exactly, when the economy continues to slide into chaos and another attack occurs on American soil

parents can rest easier by sending your sons and daughters to join the good fight against those

who threaten the free and prosperous westernized world or those who dare critisize our very own

society.

-it will be a matter of a few years where each child is forced to join the military for x amount of years

to be considered a free living citizen of the New World.

As Paul Joseph Watson notes this morning, Obama’s apparent pick for chief of staff, Illinois Democrat Rahm Emanuel, is disturbing in light of the fact he is a staunch supporter of reactionary forces in Israel and his father was an Irgun terrorist.

“The son of a man who helped carry out this slaughter [the Deir Yassin massacre of Palestinians] has now been selected by Obama to be his chief-of-staff. Cries of ’sins of the father’ lose their gusto when one considers the fact that, after the 1996 re-election of Bill Clinton, Rahm Emanuel ‘Was so angry at the president’s enemies that he stood up at a celebratory dinner with colleagues from the campaign, grabbed a steak knife and began rattling off a list of betrayers, shouting “Dead! … Dead! … Dead!” and plunging the knife into the table after every name.’ Sounds like a nice guy,” writes Watson. (Emphasis mine.)

Emanuel’s emotional response to Clinton’s enemies reveals how he will likely deal with new perceived enemies as Obama’s right-hand man. In his book, The Plan: Big Ideas for America, published in 2006, Emanuel sketches out his ideas on how to “fight against the spread of evil and totalitarianism.” In addition to fortifying “the military’s ‘thin green line’ around the world by adding to the U.S. Special Forces and the Marines, and by expanding the U.S. army by 100,000 more troops,” Emanuel suggests “we must protect our homeland and civil liberties by creating a new domestic counterterrorism force like Britain’s MI5.”

“A new domestic spying operation is an obvious threat to our civil liberties,” notes John Walsh in response to Emanuel’s suggestion. “MI5 holds secret files on one in 160 adults in Britain along with files on 53,000 organizations.” It should be noted that MI5 also specialized in the infiltration of British unions and was responsible for directing many of the IRA’s atrocities.

Rahm Emanuel’s ideas on defeating the alleged specter of “domestic counterterrorism” dovetail with frightening precision with Obama’s declaration that once elected he will create a Civilian Security Force “just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded” as the U.S. military. “People of all ages, stations, and skills will be asked to serve.”

The U.S. Army alone has nearly 500,000 troops, not counting the National Guard. “Is Obama serious about creating some kind of domestic security force bigger and more expensive than that?” muses Joseph Farah of WorldNetDaily. “If not, why did he say it? What did he mean?”

It should be obvious what he meant, although we cannot expect the corporate media to fill in the blanks. If Obama’s soon-to-be chief of staff stabs a knife into a table as a form of punctuation while denouncing the enemies of his former boss, Bill Clinton, it does not take a lot of imagination to predict how Obama’s Civilian Security Force will be used.

Is it possible the acorn does not fall far from the tree? Emanuel’s father belonged to a terrorist organization that killed the opposition, including women and children. Is it possible this psychopathic mindset was passed on to his son and will now manifest itself in Obama’s Civilian Security Force?

True. Incredibly sad, unconstitutional, and hopeless. But true.

It is certainly a sad day.

[Sho_Sho]

What else would you expect? Obama has been hanging out with people with ties to terrorism his entire career, why should he stop now just because he is President?

[PhoenixDown]

Conservatives - I think the time is coming near where we are going to have to start fighting for everything we believe in.

I mean this by: fixing our parties and getting our stuff straight again.

The Preamble:

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.

I do not know if this will happen in my lifetime, but I do not doubt this will eventually be a destiny. Not just conservatives, but anyone who can associate themselves with being faithful believers in the constitution, from which our country was meant to be established and built, will at some point have no choice but to see the errors in the ways of our government and its unlawful use of its citizens. A day will come when the people will want it back, but it will be too late to take it back on the originally founded laws as by then they will be almost forgotten. It will be a long and hard struggle when that day comes. If our enemies, for whatever reasons they have adopted to establish themselves as so, have not taken us out first.

The conservatives have no face to lead them. But the bright side of it is that a year ago Obama wasn't the face that was going to lead the liberals it was Hillary. So who knows who will emerge but I think the Governor of Louisiana Piyush "Bobby" Jindal is a real contender. I'd watch for him in 2012.

In 2000 everyone thought the Religious Right would run the country when it seemed like Bush and Religion was the it thing. Politics like the weather is cyclical just wait it'll swing back.

And so it begins....

[InHuman]

From what I've heard him and his family support Israel... I thought the pubs love that?

Same way Obama supports an Israel with a divided Jerusalem?

[Guardsman Bass]

And so it begins....

For once, I actually agree with you. Why should Rahm Emanuel be judged by the fact that his father - not him, his father - was a member of Irgun? Has he ever expressed support for Irgun?

His angry temperament is known, too. He's also known, though, for being a highly effective b****** in the legislative arena, and despite all the wishy-washy **** being spun by media representatives (*cough* Broderism), you actually want someone who can make your dreams a reality.

[Mr.United_Nations]

Mcain was a real Terrorist he killed hungreds of innocent people in Vietnam, which was a mistake.

[SoCrazes]

The American people have voted for national socialism and thats what they are going to get.

I have some sincere questions:

What is socialism?

Did you like the policies and economy under the Bush system?

Was the Bush admin. the catalyst that brought about the need for this "Change?"

[SoCrazes]

What else would you expect? Obama has been hanging out with people with ties to terrorism his entire career, why should he stop now just because he is President?

Many of you first claimed that Obama has ties with fanatical Islamic terrorists and now you're on the bandwagon that he is a terrorist in general. How could one be a terrorist for both sides of the Palestine/Zion issue? Some of you are so "fox news gullible" that you don't know the difference between a Palestinian and a Zionist.

And this is one of those rare moments when I agree with you. Guilt by birth....is that it?

[acidhead]

And this is one of those rare moments when I agree with you. Guilt by birth....is that it?

while i certainly dont feel hes guilty from birth this quote from Rahm Emanuel should alarm most folks:

..when one considers the fact that, after the 1996 re-election of Bill Clinton, Rahm Emanuel ‘Was so angry at the president’s enemies that he stood up at a celebratory dinner with colleagues from the campaign,

grabbed a steak knife and began rattling off a list of betrayers, shouting “Dead! … Dead! … Dead!” and plunging the knife into the table after every name.’

does this sound like the person who should be White House Chief of staff?

is this the kind of CHANGE Obama has been promising?
