Did Leftists Plant 'Heil Hitler' Heckler at Vegas Health Care Town Hall?

From William Jacobson, "Was 'Heil Hitler' Confrontation Staged?":

Think Progress, the Democratic policy and media-watch organization, broke the story that someone in the audience at a health care town hall in Las Vegas shouted "Heil Hitler" at an Israeli giving a talk about the Israeli system. Needless to say, the video is being spread to show that health care protesters are crazy/racist/anti-Semitic.But was this real or staged?

I cannot say definitively, but something is wrong here. The video shows the woman who shouted "Heil Hitler," in the screen shot below:

Check William's post for a photo of the same Israel Defense Forces t-shirt the woman is wearing (available at Judaism.com). (See also Memeorandum.)

The ObamaPlants have Astroturfed everything else. I'm partial to
William's point that "How convenient that this shout was made only when the Israeli was being interviewed for television."

  1. If this turns out to be exactly what it looks like -- we need to drop the whole "left vs right" BS.

    The problem isn't "left vs right" or "conservative vs liberal"......

    Orly Taitz: Obama policies are 'clear and present danger to Israel'
    Haaretz
    The driving force behind the 'birther' movement has found her star is rising in Israel.

    As cable and online news outlets devoted more and more time to the phenomenon, Israeli-American activist Orly Taitz emerged at the forefront of the campaign, and her star steadily rose until a fateful MSNBC interview in which she referred to her detractors as "Obama's brownshirts."

  2. Well lets see, we have the Hitler poster being made by Larouche, we have Pelosi yelling at americans for using swastikas, (even though libtards did with joy and gladness, including susan roesgen yucking it up in '06) we have 12 year old lil girls being plants, and "fake doctors" (Roxanna Mercedes Mayer) btw why wasn't she arrested for impersonating a doctor iusn't that illegal?
    and now this.
    i agree with the above poster, if this is a plant (and i think it is b/c as others said you don't yell heil hitler while wearing an idf shirt),then i say to hell with the system, it's broke, get EVERYBODY out and start over!

  3. Actually, it's in the best interests of the corporate power structure to keep everyone divided. The "Rosa Parks poster incident" looked contrived too. If everyone agreed on something - or at least a good percentage - this country would be radically changed. The reason is that we live in a plutocracy; a corporate oligarchy. How does this make sense? Billionaires like Donald Trump can declare bankruptcy dozens of times and discharge their debt while student loan payments and high interest rates are forms of indentured servitude.

    This country is great, yes, but it is phenomenally stupid. Stupid...Stupid...Stupid.

  4. Comrade Barney Frank’s discourse last evening displays the utter contempt he has for his constituents. There is no reason why he shouldn’t be forced to resign immediately. Further, we need to establish a court that represents the people, those hurt by the mortgage crises, to indict Comrade Frank for his criminal mishandling of the Fannie/Freddie investigations.

    Friend, you need to answer Casebolt's question -- and honestly -- before you spout stuff like that off again.

    BTW, the reason Mr. Trump and others can do what you describe is because it is not they themselves that are bankrupt ... in the eyes of the law it is the corporations they are associated with that are bankrupt ... the same law that protects the officers and investors of small corporations from having their homes and lives ripped away from them when bad things happen in the marketplace, no matter the cause ... allowing them to assume more risk as entrepreneurs, which is a net benefit to all of us -- as it leads to wealth creation and true economic "stimulus".

    Be careful not to throw out the baby with the bathwater.

  7. A Larouche democrat? WTF is that?

    C'mon...you made that up, Dennis.

    When the whackos on your team embarass you, it's convenient to suppose they are "plants." But that's ridiculous. We've seen hundreds of gullible right-wing paranoids making the same Hitler/Nazi references re: Obama and health reform. Own 'em. They're all yours.
