Egyptian minister: Obama told me he is a Muslim
2010-06-13
This was a statement by Egyptian Foreign Minister Ahmed Abul Gheit on Nile-TV. It was made on the «Round table show".

This is the statement recorded:

Adul Gheit said he had a one-on-one meeting with Obama, where the US President told him that He was still a Muslim, the son of a Muslim father, the step son of Muslim stepfather, that his half brothers in Kenya are Muslims, and that he was sympatetic towards the Muslim agenda.

Adul Gheit claimed Obama told the Arabs to show patience. Obama promised that once he overcame some domestic issues, like the Health care reform, he would show the Muslim World how to deal with Israel.

#20  Is he bucking for Kapo?
The more indignant speak of him that way in Israel, Goober Goobelopolous.

#19  And this revelation is surprising in what way? The only thing that surprises me is that Helen Thomas came out of the anti-Semite closet before Barack Hussein Obama (mmmmmm-mmmmmm-mmmmmm). And what's up with Rahm Emmanuel? Is he bucking for Kapo?

#18  No reason he can't be both, GG

In my opinion, many of them, if not most, are both, Barbara.

#17  the name Barack is Arabic. He adopted that name over the Barry

Obama adopting 'Barack', IMNSO, isn't much different than the folks I knew in the 70s who gave themselves 'African', 'Hindu' or 'Nature/Amerindian' names back in the 70s and did the same to their offspring. 'Khalif' for 'Kenny', for instance.

It'd be like me changing my name from 'Pappy' to 'Papillon' to be more French. Somewhat ridiculous, but there's no limit to the lengths people will go to disavow their past, or tie themselves to a single thread of it.

#15  That would explain why he refused to eat with Israel's PM....

#14  You couldn't say anything about Barak that I wouldn't believe. And I only have that attitude towards muslims and psychopathic liars. Therefore he must be a muslim.

#13  Barack Obama worships Barack Obama

#12  Barry went to "Rev" Wright's church because his doctrine regarding Israel and America is in line with the Muslim views of Israel and America.

Or because that's the local church that had the most voters and donators for him to tap into. Cynical, I know.

#10  He is human Potemkin Village. No sarc.

#9  Actually, he's a secret Jew.

#8  Also, the name Barack is Arabic. He adopted that name over the Barry. This President of the United States of America will stand against Traditional America, its allies, including Israel. He will walk a fine line, in a very stealthy well scripted (telemonitor) way until he hopes to be able to step away from the telemonitor and speak freely of his true inner self, which trully is contrary to what makes America, America.

#7  Michelle most likely went to "Rev" Wright's chruch to provide her daughters with a religious upbringing.

Barry went to "Rev" Wright's church because his doctrine regarding Israel and America is in line with the Muslim views of Israel and America. He has done nothing but apologized to the world regarding America's historical Judao-Christian policies.

Obama's Grandfather and father were Muslims. Obama went to Muslim school in Indonesia. Barack dropped the American name for Barack. Barack is a Muslim.

#6  My apologies, whitecollar redneck. I'm not good at recognizing that without stage directions. A /sarc or ;-) helps a lot to keep me from looking stupid.

My own take is that our president firmly believes all religions are constructs invented to control the masses, each with it's own quaint and charming beliefs and behaviours so easy for those with a background in anthropology to mimic and manipulate as needed to blend in with the subject population.

#4  Big suprise. /snark off

#3  I know you are right about that tw. Please place my statements in the "Snarky" column.

#2  I'd happily share a slab of pork ribs just to be sure.

That would prove nothing, given 1) taqqiyah, 2) the percentage of Muslims in the diaspora who don't observe the dietary laws is probably as high as the percentage among Jews, and 3) President Obama doesn't seem to believe any rules are binding upon him other than those he chooses -- for instance, he seems to work hard to be an involved father and husband.

#1  I'll take it with a grain of salt, but I've never seen him eat bacon either. I'd happily share a slab of pork ribs just to be sure.
