Orly Taitz Blames Sandy Hook Massacre On Obama

Source: Huffington Post

Birther queen Orly Taitz blames President Barack Obama for the Sandy Hook school massacre, saying the president is "trying to show that some person can appear out of the blue and slaughter people" so he can ban guns and "gain an absolute power."

Taitz, an attorney and dentist from California, has been using her website in recent days to raise conspiracy theories about the school shooting, which left 28 people, including 20 children, the shooter and his mother. Taitz questioned whether Adam Lanza, 20, who police have identified as the killer, could have been under mind control or drugged to fulfill a political mission.

Taitz wrote on her website:

Where was Adam Lanza in the days leading to the massacre? Was he handled by someone? Was he drugged? Was he subjected to hypnosis?

The word assassin comes from the Arabic word “Hashish”, name for a drug, I believe correct translation is opium. For thousands of years, since ancient times assassins were drugged.

Was Adam Lanza drugged and hypnotised by his handlers to make him into a killing machine as an excuse as the regime is itching to take all means of self defense from the populace before the economic collapse?

She believes much of what she says, but she'll lie to get other people to believe it, too.

She never gets it right

The term hashishiyya or hashishi as used by Muslim sources is used metaphorically in its abusive sense (i.e "irreligious social outcasts", "low-class rabble", etc.). "The literal interpretation of this term in referring to the Nizaris (as hashish consuming intoxicated assassins) is rooted in the fantasies of medieval Westerners and their imaginative ignorance of Islam and the Ismailis."[2]

The theory that the word "assassin" was derived from the Arabic word hashishin (i.e. "users of hashish&quot ,[3] is now considered outdated and incorrect because it refers to the now outdated and incorrect medieval sources known to have been hostile to the Nizari Ismailis.

Secretary of State in 2010. Candidates are required to attend a finance reporting class. She attended the same class I did. She is incapable of asking on topic questions. She had a roomful of people groaning everytime she spoke. During a break the instructor took her aside and spoke to her briefly. Taitz did not return after the break.
