The LA Times is hiding an incriminating video of Obama with radical Palestinian professor Rashid Khalidi.Gateway Pundit says he contacted the LA Times to ask about a video showing Barack Obama at a party for former PLO spokesman Rashid Khalidi, mentioned by the LA Times in this article: Allies of Palestinians see a friend in Barack Obama.At Khalidi’s going-away party in 2003, the scholar lavished praise on Obama, telling the mostly Palestinian American crowd that the state senator deserved their help in winning a U.S. Senate seat. “You will not have a better senator under any circumstances,” Khalidi said.The event was videotaped, and a copy of the tape was obtained by The Times.LA Times writer Peter Wallsten said he won’t release the video or reveal his sources:Confirmed: MSM Holds Video Of Barack Obama Attending Jew-Bash & Toasting a Former PLO Operative... Refuse to Release the Video!If true, this is media malfeasance of an almost astounding degree. They have a video that could change the stakes in this election and they’re hiding it. And they’ve been hiding it since last April.Contact the Los Angeles Times and demand that they release this video.UPDATE at 10/26/08 12:24:05 pm:Please note: the existence of the tape is not in doubt. In his article from last April, the Los Angeles Times’ Peter Wallsten said explicitly that they possessed a copy of the tape: Allies of Palestinians see a friend in Barack Obama.At Khalidi’s going-away party in 2003, the scholar lavished praise on Obama, telling the mostly Palestinian American crowd that the state senator deserved their help in winning a U.S. Senate seat. “You will not have a better senator under any circumstances,” Khalidi said.The event was videotaped, and a copy of the tape was obtained by The Times.
