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 Augusts 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.

Beware , Obamas Muslim Spring has started in the US
astonishing
17 second snippet... Obama interview with George Stephanopolous... Obama says "My Muslim faith", and George interrupts him and reminds him "Your Christian faith", and Obama says "My, my Christian faith". It hasn't exactly been a secret that Obama is a Muslim. The mainstreams simply need to keep it under the radar for another 22 months. Then we can celebrate electing our first Muslim. *sigh*
That;s why he purged the upper eschelons of the American Military, imported illegals into the ranks, and put that simpering dolt Dempsey in charge. To prevent that.
I got a finger for the POS.
Can anyone find and post pictures of other muslims using this sign?
Dumbassed, lying snopes is saying otherwise, of course.
You can see the video of this at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fc6XHQHeWnM . This photo must have been taken at a different angle. Somebody made some comment and there was laughter. Obama was commenting back. Looking from that front angle, though, his hand gesture started out with his thumb up. As his hand was hidden by his body in that front-view video (but shown in the photo captured by the British media company), THAT is when he apparently shifted from the thumb-up gesture to this gesture, and he kept his hand back there even while his body moved forward, so it seems like he’s deliberately allowing the people behind him to see his hand gesture.
From the video where this frame occurs, I think you’re right.

Look at the faces behind him. They all got it.
First I’ve heard of this.
There is no denying Obama was raised around Islam so knows it well..
so he would know that's gesture well and know what its mean in front of that audience....
You an I might not know what it means... but he would...he would know very well what it means to an Islamic crowd
it like an American would never give the middle finger by accident to an American crowd..
yep, noticed that too.
Very interesting.
I give him my gang sign every time he is on TV—with both hands.
If you look closely at the video you can see that he first gives a thumbs up and then changes to the ISIS salute.
I don’t either. Was just curious.
To add to your comment, if you watch the video, he just stumbled on the stop step getting up to the stage. I hate the treasonous bastid, I do believe he has been masquerading as a Christian and is, in fact, a muslim. But I also believe this is grasping at unnecessary straws. He was jokingly admonishing one of the others for a comment about his little stumble.
