Allegedly the negotiations for the release of Galid Shalit were on the verge of bearing fruit. But why shouldn't Hamas now say, much as Fatah did before, "good idea, Barry! Let's demand those additional 1,000 terrorist releases as a further condition to what Israel has already offered for Galid!"

Obama's busy Thanksgiving Eid-ul-Adha Day

Obama greets muslim pilgrims
Boston Globe ^ | 11/25/09 | Foon Rhee
President Obama continued his outreach to the world's Muslims today, sending greetings to pilgrims to Mecca.

"...best wishes to all those performing Hajj this year, and to Muslims in America and around the world who are celebrating Eid-ul-Adha. The rituals of Hajj and Eid-ul-Adha both serve as reminders of the shared Abrahamic roots of three of the world’s major religions...."

"During Hajj, the world’s largest and most diverse gathering, three million Muslims from all walks of life, including thousands of American Muslims, will stand in prayer on Mount Arafat. The following day, Muslims around the world will celebrate Eid-ul-Adha....to commemorate Abraham’s willingness to sacrifice his son out of obedience to God.... On behalf of the American people, we would like to extend our greetings during this Hajj season – Eid Mubarak....[end]"

The statement was translated on the White House website into Arabic, Persian, Dari, Urdu, Pashto, Russian, and French.
