Libyan Leader Mu'ammar Al-Qadhafi: Obama...Should Be Proud of His African, Muslim Identity

MEMRI ^ | 6/11/2008 | Mu'ammar al-Qadafi

[mojito]

Following are excerpts from a public address delivered by Libyan Leader Mu'ammar Al-Qadhafi marking the anniversary of the U.S. air raid on Libya. The address aired on Al-Jazeera TV on June 11, 2008:

Mu'ammar Al-Qadhafi: It has been proven that there is no democracy in [the U.S.]. Rather, it is a dictatorship no different than the dictatorships of Hitler, Napoleon, Mussolini, Genghis Khan, Alexander the Great, and the rest of the tyrants. In the days of crazy Reagan, the American president issued a presidential order to launch a war against Libya, for example, a presidential order to besiege Libya, a presidential order to boycott Libya, and so on. Is this a democracy or a dictatorship?

[...]

There are elections in America now. Along came a black citizen of Kenyan African origins, a Muslim, who had studied in an Islamic school in Indonesia. His name is Obama. All the people in the Arab and Islamic world and in Africa applauded this man. They welcomed him and prayed for him and for his success, and they may have even been involved in legitimate contribution campaigns to enable him to win the American presidency. But we were taken by surprise when our African Kenyan brother, who is an American national, made statements that shocked all his supporters in the Arab world, in Africa, and in the Islamic world. We hope that this is merely an elections "clearance sale," as they say in Egypt – in other words, merely an elections lie. As you know, this is the farce of elections – a person lies and lies to people, just so that they will vote for him, and afterwards, when they say to him: :"You promised this and that," he says: "No, this was just elections propaganda." This is the farce of democracy for you. He says: "This was propaganda, and you thought I was being serious. I was fooling you to get your votes."

Allah willing, it will turn out that this was merely elections propaganda. Obama said he would turn Jerusalem into the eternal capital of the Israelis. This indicates that our brother Obama is ignorant of international politics, and is not familiar with the Middle East conflict.

[...]

We thought he would say: "I have decided that if I win, I will monitor the Dimona nuclear plant, and the other WMDs in Israeli's possession." We expected him to make such a decision. He undoubtedly had this in mind. When he talked about Iran and its nuclear program, he undoubtedly had Dimona in mind. But when he was thinking about Dimona, he undoubtedly had the fate of former president Kennedy on his mind as well. Kennedy decided to monitor the Dimona nuclear plant. He insisted on doing so, in order to determine whether or not it produces nuclear weapons. The Israelis refused, but he insisted. This crisis was resolved with the resignation of Ben-Gurion. He resigned so he would not have to agree to the monitoring of the Dimona plant, and he gave the green light for the killing of Kennedy. Kennedy was killed because he insisted on the monitoring of the Dimona plant. This image was undoubtedly on Obama's mind. He undoubtedly wanted to talk about this, but decided not to.

[...]

We expected him to say: "If I win, I will implement the one-state solution – the "Isratine" which appears in Qadhafi's White Book." This idea constitutes the final, deep-rooted, and historic solution. It is impossible to establish two midget-states in this area. What kind of country is only 15 km deep? The so-called Israel is only 15 km deep. What kind of a country is this?

There are five million Palestinians there. We expected Obama to say: "I've decided to return millions of Palestinian refugees to the land of Palestine, from which they were expelled in 1948 and 1967." This is the "change" that the peoples applaud, the change that the American people – and the black people in America – want.

We expected him to say: "I will strive for the independence and unity of the Kurdish nation. This nation must take its place under the sun in the Middle East." The Kurdish nation is torn apart, tormented, and persecuted, and is colonized by everyone. He should have supported it, instead of supporting the collaborators, while sacrificing the future of the Kurdish nation. This is "change."

[...]

The thing we fear most is that the black man suffers from an inferiority complex. This is dangerous. If our brother Obama feels that because he is black he doesn't have the right to rule America, this would be a disaster, because such a feeling would make him behave whiter than the white, and go to an extreme in his persecution and degradation of the blacks.

[...]

We say to him: Brother, the whites and blacks in America are equal. They are all immigrants. America belongs neither to the whites nor to the blacks. America belongs to its original inhabitants, the Indians. Both the whites and the blacks immigrated to America, and so they are equal, and Obama has the right to hold his head high, and say: "I am a partner in America. This is my land as much as it is yours. If it is not my land, it is not yours either. It is the land of the Indians. You are immigrants, and so are we."

[...]

We still hope that this black man will take pride in his African and Islamic identity, and in his faith, and that [he will know] that he has rights in America, and that he will change America from evil to good, and that America will establish relations that will serve it well with other peoples, especially the Arabs.

Qadafi thinks Obama is a Muslim, and he's telling all the good Muslims watching al-Jazeera that Obama is a Muslim.

I edited the title for space reasons. The full title is "Libyan Leader Mu'ammar Al-Qadhafi: Obama Suffers Inferiority Complex That Might Make Him Behave "Whiter Than the White." He Should Be Proud of His African, Muslim Identity. Ben-Gurion Gave the Green Light for the Killing of JFK."

[RightWhale]

Khadaffi is one of the brighter lights. He might also have a loose headbolt.

[agere_contra]

Is this a democracy or a dictatorship?

Dictator-for-life Qadafi Duck is projecting here.

[pennboricua]

I remember how quickly the lybians stopped all that highjacking of airlines when President Regan sent a missible his way killing one of his sons if i recall correctly.

[antiRepublicrat]

You know you’re hurtin’ when Crazy Khadaffi says you’re ignorant of international politics.

[RightWhale]

Yes, a definite sign of intelligence.

[Ruy Dias de Bivar]

Qadafi Duck has spoken! America, be awed and humbled! S/off

Libyan Leader Mu'ammar Al-Qadhafi: Obama...Should Be Proud of His African, Muslim Identity

Uh-huh, right, because, you know, so much that is good in the world has come from African muslims...

[El Gato]

Is this a democracy or a dictatorship?

Neither Mu, it's a Representative Republic.

[weegee]

Obama the Golden Child with a blue turban may be of Kenyan African origins but he’d have to be be born an American citizen (and not filed as a DUAL citizen of Kenya by birth as his father may have done) if he wants to be elligible to run out little country into the ground.

Don’t take kindly to foreigners running us around.

[manic4organic]

Stop helping me, Mu! -signed B.O.

[montag813]

Mu'ammar Al-Qadhafi: It has been proven that there is no democracy in [the U.S.]. Rather, it is a dictatorship no different than the dictatorships of Hitler, Napoleon, Mussolini,

THIS is the kinder, gentler Qadhafi???

[Stayfree]

Hey Mu baby, get a little closer to B.O. and try to get appointed as his senior advisor so you can enlighten him into your Muslim wisdom and guide his policy speeches...SO THE TWIT LOSES THE PRESIDENTIAL RACE!

[AmusedBystander]

Mussolini you say?

Reincarnation?

[patriot08]

Very good! Went into my file.

[Cindy]

Thank you Patriot08.

I appreciate it.

[SE Mom]

Good ole Qadhafi, ping!

[Miss Didi]

Alisyn Camerota’s going to be soooooo mad! Did you hear her screaming rant this morning? She took over the segment on the Muslim headscarf women by saying that Barry Hussein is NOT a Muslim, he IS a Christian, he has ALWAYS been a Christian his whole life and the poor thing has even had to start a website to stop these evil smears and you can read her blog to see all the horrible things that people are writing about him every day. I then shut off Fox & Friends.

[SE Mom]

Oh geeesh- she’s gone over the deep end...

No perspective- these kids have no perspective.
