Obama and the Muslim Gang Sign (a very important repeated article)

Is President Obama a Muslim? A lot has been written about this, but if photographs speak louder than words, then a photo taken at last August’s U.S.-African Leaders’ Summit in Washington D.C. might shed considerable light.

It shows Barack Hussein Obama flashing the one-finger affirmation of Islamic faith to dozens of African delegates.

*snip*

The one-finger display is the distinctive Muslim gang sign: The index finger points straight up while the thumb wraps underneath and presses against the digital phalange of the middle finger. The remaining fingers are squeezed against the palm in order to highlight the extended forefinger. The extended finger is symbolic of the one-God concept of Muhammad and is understood by all believers to be a symbolic shahada, the Muslim affirmation of faith: There is but one God and Muhammad is his messenger.

Obama is Satan’s play toy, so he is anything that everyone who isn’t Christian thinks he is. He is all things to all people who don’t believe in The One True Living God. Could he be giving the moslem gang hand sign? Sure! Could he be signaling, “Oh, just one minute!”? Sure! Whatever nonbelievers choose to think, he’s cool with that, as long as you DON’T thing about God! Satan is about confusion. Has 0.00bamugabe been pinned down on ANYTHING? No. Is he Marxist? Probably. Is he Muslim? Probably. Does he care? No, as long as he divides through confusion! He is his father’s son, the father of lies who chooses to confuse the world, so we don’t focus on God.

That smirk on his face. He knows exactly what he is doing.

The people of the USA need to get their heads out of their rears and know exactly what he is doing too.

The guy is a foreign enemy combatant who was illegally placed into our White House by his communist and Islamist puppet-masters - SPECIFICALLY to implement the “Muslim agenda” that he told the Egyptian ambassador in January of 2010 that he would begin to support once he crammed Obamacare down America’s throats.

This is why the media was threatened in Oct of 2008 with dire consequences if they allowed anybody to report 2 things: Obama’s ineligibility/documentation problems, and his Muslim leanings. The first tells us that he’s a foreign enemy combatant, and the second tells us who his puppet-masters are. Everything we’ve seen out of this guy makes sense when you realize those 2 things.

Ok, he’s walking past a bunch of people with a bunch of other people when some smart aleck says something. You’ve got the one guy laughing, the other one he’s blocking looks like he’s laughing from the smile lines around his eyes, the one next in line is clearly smiling faintly. Haven’t you joked around with people but kept on moving?

He richly deserved all the abuse he got (and more) for that awful speech yesterday, for the prayer breakfast train wreck, and for appointing that horrendous State Department idiot (among others), but absent audio and video, I don’t think that is some sort of Muslim thing. I think that makes us look like conspiracy nuts and therefore not to be taken seriously on the other stuff.

I have expected a military coup for a while now. One, that is, wherein Obama is frog-marched out of the White Hut in handcuffs.

I am amazed it has taken this long fora a publication anywhere to say it. Everyone has known it for at least 6 months and many of us believed it way back when he was running for president the first time. It has been something like general knowledge on FR for since the first of the year at least.

The position of all the fingers is exact for the formal declaration.

I’ve been wondering what headlines to expect right before that happens, and also shouldn’t the VP go too if he’s 100% aligned?

Now we need for a prominent Republican who is not currently running for president to state publicly that the President is a Moslem and is working for Islamic goals. Trump would be good if someone like Giuliani would follow up and support him. Trump alone would be simply blown off by just about everyone in the Press, but he would be a good first so long as there is a second. Then Levin should take it up then Rush. If that should come to pass there will be many and the veil will fall completely away. Obama’s minions’ denials would get increasingly hollow and unbelievable and not believed. Obama would be forced to try something really radical and he would be either removed or walled off in the White House or he would try that coup that some have speculated on for years.

Only last night on ‘The Factor’, Bill O’Reilly commented that it is not proven that Obama is a Muslim.

Bill is the last one to be convinced of it because he is looking out for us.

Look at the angle of Obama’s body compared to the 2 men before him and the man behind him. The others are walking straight in front of that step; Obama is turning his body so that his hand gesture can be seen, even while keeping his head turned as if he was just walking by like the others.

At Pamela Geller’s site somebody posted a video from this event, where he gestured to the others and there was some kind of noise as if there was a comment or laughter. But it seemed like it was a different context than this. I thought I had copied the URL from that youtube video but I guess it didn’t copy. A person could check the positions, etc to see if this is the same instance.

Thanks. I too blogged this twice on my own site. It’s astonishing that it’s not the top story. It seems Obama is just about to let go and show himself praying in the mosque. He seems to be going completely nuts.

CAPTION THIS:

“Now now my fellow butt buddies, i can indeed make you scream like little girls. I willl be back in five minutes to prove it”.

or to guy behind him in white dress:
“My my dear brother, that bump in your skirt is indeed one to be proud of!”

.
It is the members of the House and Senate that should get their heads out — most people on FR already know it.

Absolutely (about the position of his body).

Here's an interesting article in Foreign Affairs which examines the use of the gesture by ISIS...

ISIS Sends a Message--What Gestures Say About Today’s Middle East

Obama knew exactly what he was saying when he made the gesture.

From the article...

When ISIS militants display the sign, to one another or to a photographer, they are actively reaffirming their dedication to that ideology, whose underlying principle demands the destruction of the West. If rank-and-file soldiers are aware of the precise theological implications of their sign -- and it would be no surprise if they are -- that would be a sobering comment on their deep-seated opposition to pluralism.

The gesture is equally important for what it means to Westerners, most of whom cannot read Arabic. By raising their index fingers, militants send an easy-to-understand message of the group’s goals of theological supremacy and military hegemony. When potential ISIS recruits in London, New York, or Sydney see the symbol on Twitter, they can grasp the scale of ISIS’ ambitions and its underlying aims. At some visceral level, less-radicalized viewers understand that it means dominance.
