Good News: Illinois Hired Convicted Terrorist as Obamacare Navigator
Guy Benson | Feb 27, 2014



During her tenure as an Obamacare "navigator," Rasmieh Yousef Odeh had access to Illinois consumers' sensitive personal data. Unbeknownst to those citizens, and to her employer, Ms. Odeh has an extremely sordid past. She was convicted for her role in three bombings, including one that killed two innocent people at an Israeli supermarket in the late 1960's:

Rasmieh Yousef Odeh was convicted in Israel for her role in several bombings, including the 1969 attack on an upscale Shufersol grocery store, which killed two Hebrew University students who had stopped in to buy groceries for a hiking trip in the Jerusalem hills. Leon Kanner and Eddie Joffe were killed by a bomb hidden in a candy box tucked on a shelf, which also injured nine or 10 others, according to a website maintained by the Israeli government to commemorate terror victims. The Illinois Department of Insurance quietly revoked Odeh’s certification as a Navigator In-Person Counselor on November 24, explaining in a disciplinary report that the decision was “based on an investigation which revealed that she had been convicted in Israel for her role in the bombings of a supermarket and the British Consulate in Jerusalem and failed to reveal the conviction on her application.”

Fortunately, Illinois officials pulled the plug on this woman relatively quickly; they were tipped off to her terrorist status by a US Attorney's office in Michigan. Disconcertingly, the state's background check didn't catch this -- shall we say -- rather significant omission from her resume. Even more alarming is the fact that the federal government doesn't even require states to conduct any criminal background checks on Obamacare navigators, a stunning reality confirmed by HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius in Congressional testimony in November:



National Review reported last month that Obamacare's 'Covered California' employed at least 43 ex-criminals as navigators, including several individuals with fraud convictions. Elsewhere in Obamacare news, a new Kaiser Family Foundation poll shows public support for the law still underwater by double-digits, with just 35 percent of Americans expressing a favorable opinion of it. Even more problematic, frets the Huffington Post, are sentiments among uninsured Americans -- the very people for whom the law was ostensibly passed to help:



Fifty-six percent of those who identified as uninsured in a new poll conducted in February by the Henry J. Kaiser Family Foundation, a research institution, had an unfavorable view of the health care reform law, compared to just 22 percent who said they view it favorably. The uninsured now see Obamacare less favorably than they did when the enrollment period began in October. As recently as September, more uninsured approved of the law than disapproved. The survey results illustrate just how deep a hole the Obama administration is in when it comes to gaining the support of those the law is most intended to benefit.


This result mirrors an NBC/WSJ poll taken in December, in which uninsured Americans disapproved of Obamacare by a two-to-one margin. KKF now pegs that disparity at 22/56, noting that negative opinions have increased steadily since October's catastrophic rollout.

well,isn't that special?

We support terror as long as it'll be an means to justify the ends. We not only had preemtive strikes to start wars with countries that had nothing to do with 9/11 (as it's been used as a banner for warfare and rights losses) and drones from the W.admin but we've had the Obama admin carrying that on (with hillary being central to it) kick up the drone kill counts (mostly civilians), go in to topple Libya (illegally) and almost starting WW3 over being unable to topple Syria fast enough. So it's bipartisanship and carrying on an agenda through administrations regardless of who's in the exec branch. We've also had bipartisanship vote in overwhelming numbers to take away our rights since the 1st passing of the patriot act.
Keep in mind here... This is the states. It's how we've been working and our voting majority enables it to stay this way. It takes bipartisanship/The Dems & GOP to keep it like this and that's all done in the legislative actions, not the words said. (The words a re just there to replace logic with rhetoric to the voters.) Since we also support Israel (basically a modern day Constantinople in it's set up but instead it's there to destabilize a region if need be. It's been internationally enabled too) she's not a terrorist. Remember... Pro US interest countries = will pass "like minded legislation" on it's people, aren't called terrorists when they do something blatantly evil and are "okay" because they'll side with us if we want/need it. "The ends justify the means" here. The ends = money. The means = whatever it takes as long as we can keep power.

Also, and this is to the communist rhetoric replacing logic post...
Nothing about what we're doing is communism. Communism comes up whenever anyone is addressed about money reallocations in the government and when it comes to anything in regard to the system adapting to the needs of the people (like a competent government should keep as it's highest priority). So it's a deflection. Communism, aside from being a failed system, (and also did what capitalism does... Kill people to secure the money. Stalin and the Gulags for example) is also a closed system. Hence why you had the soviet block. Socialism and communism are about "the worker" when in fact we're about enabling the profits of the owner at the worker's expense. What we do have is fascism with systemic tweeks... It's based on wealth now, we have 2 parties enabling it, those who have amassed wealth already get to keep it (while having more channeled to them via pro corporate legislation that the Dems & GOP enable)untouched and it's been blatant.

We are also a culture who generally can't see the difference between humility and communism which is not only causing us sever problems but keeps the US materialistic instead of humane. Calling humility communism is one of the more prominent dehumanization factors we have. It backs up a "wealth = worth" mentality (The main dehumanization factor we have) and it supports Social Darwinism as a regular means of how society works with/for/on itself.
