I’m looking through the responses here and I am amazed at how thick some of them are. A common hand gesture can’t POSSIBLY mean something different to Muslims.

Really?

You know the Ichthys sign was used by Christians to identify themselves to one another, to speak without speaking by drawing in the sand, 2000 years ago. The whole point of a secret sign is it’s a SECRET.

The thing I’m observing is that the finger gesture is straight up. Some other posters have explained it that it’s the hand sign for the Shahada. That makes sense since Obama was raised as a Muslim during his time in Indonesia.

And you don't see that same gesture as common in non-muslim public speaking?

Muslims have infiltrated everywhere:

Thank you, Celeste, for the info. The person who posted this (Megan?) was on to something. Hope she keeps reading.

Wikipedia makes no mention of this - whether out of pc-ness or just no knowledge of this phenomenon.

It’s not the same thing. See it not in pictures but in video and you’ll see there’s a quality to how they do this that Obama has in common with the jihadi guys we keep seeing on TV.

Hi, MeganC! Yes, even American Thinker is on to this gesture. Thank you for bringing this to my attention. It may be meaningless but we’ve been fooled before. I don’t think it is meaningless. That it is a universal gesture among ordinary people does not mean it is insignificant to either islamists or obama.

PLEASE . . put the NOSES on your Smiley Faces! - That has
always been a pet peeve of mine!!

Like this :O) . NOT like this :). It makes them not look
NORMAL!! I AM NOT JOKING!! Capital “O” for the nose. There’s
a right and a wrong way to do stuff!

I have had to be doing target practice with my great-great
granddaddy’s old Smith & Wesson. It’s over 100 yrs. old &
still works great! - Also, this terrorist business is
making me more nervous lately! It’s a revoltin’ development!
Purposely doing stuff to aggravate Twinkie is just plain
mean. :O(

Thank you. I hope she continues as well. Information is key. Speaking of references TheObamaFile.com probably addresses this.
