Only Trump seemed to listen to what was concerning to the Arab states.
Back in December of 2008, then President-elect Barack Hussein Obama said he’d use his middle name at his inauguration because of tradition (most presidents-elect use their full names at inauguration). But he also explained that simply by dint of having it — and, of course simply by being him, The One — he presented a “unique opportunity to reboot America’s image around the world and also in the Muslim world in particular.”
Obama was absolutely cocksure he could sweep into the Middle East, riven by centuries of conflict, give a speech, and have the sun break out. Towards that effort he gave his very first post-inauguration interview to a Muslim outlet, Al Arabiya, then set off on his six-month long “apology tour.”
About five months into it, in June 2009, he went to Cairo for what the White House billed as the big kahuna, the major speech, the one he was no doubt sure would usher in his imagined Middle East Oasis of Peace. And sure enough, once again, he mentioned his middle name.
“…Much has been made of the fact that an African American with the name Barack Hussein Obama could be elected President.”
Of course, the effete and obsequious Cairo speech didn’t work, and by the sunset of his presidency, if not well before, the Muslim world had caught on to what a weakling and fraud he was and is and, well, I’ll let the below quote speak for itself. The speaker, “Abdulkhaleq Abdullah, a professor of political science at Emirates University” was referring to the Muslim world and is from the region:
“‘I don't think they have a deep respect, a deep trust for Obama and his promises.’”

0bama started the “Arab Spring” where the radical Muslim Brotherhood tried to take over. 0bama’s trust in radicals was pure idiocy.
Yeah. Muslims are going to vote for a party of trannies and abortionists. They will vote for Rats for only one reason. They know that Rats have no principles and will accept eventually Sharia. They join the Rats in order to destroy the country.
Obama was “the one” alright. He was the one who tried to destroy America!
Obama damaged this nation so badly that it will eventually fall or break up BECAUSE of him and his policies.
Barack Hussein Obama - cocksure, but more than that, downright arrogant.
Narcissistic sociopath. The One, indeed. Totally lacking in any human empathy or even a modicum of commonsense.
Obama is the person who showed Zohran Mamdani how it is done, it is just that Zohran is not all that smart.
Dorkbama, the lying Muslim eunuch quota selectee, has no talent save that of faking everything in his useless life. However, he is an example of what our loathsome press can do when they endeavor to turn a turd into something worth considering. He is a prime example of the Democrat Party’s operating order, “Symbolism over Substance”.
There is another thread that addresses people like “The One”.
Dunning-Kruger Effect. Or as Rush used to call it, “A dangerous combination of ignorance and arrogance.”
NO - Obama did NOT “seek to unite the Muslim world.”
His engagement with the Muslim Brotherhood, particularly in Egypt, was not to “create peace in the mideast” or whatever BS slogan was used.
Obama’s support of the MB in Egypt, Hamas, etc... actually earned him the ire of much of “the Muslim World” particularly Saudi Arabia, Jordan, the Gulf States, and post MB Egypt. They hated him for it.
His main purpose was to raise up the Muslim Brotherhood’s various off-shoots and political lobbying organizations in the West (especially CAIR), to give them a higher political profile — to create another destructive, neo-marxist political wedge against the western institutions he hates.
CAIR are now the de-facto “voice of Islam” in the USA, thanks to Obama.
Muslim nations in the Middle East especially Egypt, Jordan and the Gulf States are rational. They are authoritarian states so they have a good handle of Islam in their countries.
I recall when Clint Eastwood called obama an empty chair. Dirty Harry was right.
Nice to see rational people like you two have a good grasp of reality.
It seems as though everything President Obama did was part of an effort to destroy the Republic.
He told us: Fundamentally transform is not a way to keep a Republic.
Dubya (and Obama) were strong to insistent that a country in the Middle East should have “democracy”. They’ll just vote for the Taliban.
Dubya believed it.
Obama used it to do what he wanted. I doubt he actually believed it.
He looks like Mussalini with that smug, arrogant posture.
“They are authoritarian states so they have a good handle of Islam in their countries.”
Exactly. Any attempt by the USA to establish a democracy in iran will fail. If they want a democracy, let them do it themselves. But the priority for them always must be to handle their islamonazi population.
