Chris Chase Hatred Of Serena Williams — Continues

By N Oji Mzilikazi

31 August 2015

Not satisfied with egg all over his face with his Wimbledon prediction Serena Williams won’t win Wimbledon, Chris Chase is at it again.

In playing the law of averages, and as my people say, “The one day for thief, one day for police scenario,” Chase delivers Why Serena Williams will lose the U.S. Open.

It is sad that For The Win/USA Today continues to give Chris Chase ink so he could pursue his hate campaign against the Williams sisters, in this case Serena. I guess anything to get clicks on their website is worth it.

Don’t be deceived. As someone who takes names and dates, Chase ruminations are hate based. As previously pointed out on this blog, the sad man decried Serena winning the 2009 Associated Press Female Athlete of the Year Award. He chalked it up to “an epically bad slate of 2009 candidates.”

The writings of Chase, like that of Greg Couch, Selena Roberts (The New York Times), and Sally Jenkins (Washington Post) who said of Serena, Someday she may have to cope with the fact that real greatness isn’t hers, but rather, just a whisper of something she overheard through a door she never entered betray a running hatred towards the Williams.

Even if Serena fails to win the U.S. Open, or fails to tie or surpass Steffi Graf Grand Slam titles, Serena would still be the best female tennis player — ever.

UPDATE:

Serena lost in the semi-finals to Roberta Vinci.

Chris Chase had to be overjoyed. He must’ve even gotten himself an erection as well. After all, his prediction of a Serena loss finally came true.

As if it’s something knowledgeable tennis fans didn’t know, Chase penned: Serena Williams is the sorest loser.

Venus told us so eons ago; ever since Serena took up a tennis racquet…

Canada: Harper’s Deafening Silence on the Iran Nuclear Deal

By N Oji Mzilikazi

30 August 2015

Like right-wing Christian Churches, Christian Zionists and Christian fundamentalists that unequivocally support Israel and send millions of dollars to fund Israeli settlements, Stephen Harper, our unbeloved prime minister and his Conservative government are the world’s staunchest supporter of Israel. In Harper’s eyes, Israel can do no wrong and Israel does not do wrong.

In his January 2014 speech before Israel’s Knesset, Stephen Harper vowed loyalty to Israel. Harper declared:  Through fire and water, Canada will stand with you.

At the November 2010, interparliamentary conference on combating anti-Semitism, Harper declared: As long as I am Prime Minister, whether it is at the UN or the Francophonie or anywhere else, Canada will take a stand whatever the cost.

In stating he would take a pro-Israeli stance, no matter what the political cost to Canada; Stephen Harper is feted and embraced by Jewry worldwide, and given awards and titles by Jewish organizations.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called Harper a great friend of Israel and the Jewish people, and praised him for unabashedly standing by Israel on issues including Iran’s nuclear program.

Since Iranian hardliners foolishly swear to the destruction of Israel, Iran  was elevated as the latest bogyman that epitomizes evil and a threat to the west, Canada would not engage with Iran in any shape or form.

In taking up anti-Iran fire rage for Israel, in September 2014 Canadian Foreign Affairs Minister John Baird dismissed outright any co-operation with Iran against ISIS.  Baird passed on the chance to inflict serious damage on ISIS while in its infancy.

In the face of such pro-Israel support by Stephen Harper it was rather surprising to see Harper staying silent on the landmark Iran Nuclear deal hammered out by the United States and others – weeks after the signing, and with protests and objections by the Israeli government, prominent American Jews and others.

Republican presidential candidate Mike Huckabee didn’t pledge loyalty to Israel, but he had no qualms about invoking the Holocaust to object to the Iranian nuclear deal.

Huckabee likened it to marching the Israelis to the door of the oven.

I’m truly baffled by Harper’s silence. Harper had no qualms about snubbing the United Nations. Harper was willing to call out and attack Russian President Vladimir Putin over Russia’s expansionism and militarism, yet when Israel needed him most he didn’t show up. Harper didn’t show support and solidarity with Israel and criticized or objected to the deal.

Wonders never cease!
