President Apostate? (NYTimes, 2008, now on Drudge front page)
NYTime ^ | 5-12-08 | Edward N. Luttwak

*snip*

Senator Obama is half African by birth and Africans can understandably identify with him. In Islam, however, there is no such thing as a half-Muslim. Like all monotheistic religions, Islam is an exclusive faith.

As the son of the Muslim father, Senator Obama was born a Muslim under Muslim law as it is universally understood. It makes no difference that, as Senator Obama has written, his father said he renounced his religion.

NOW this is finally hitting people?

This has been a major issue with me, and many other freepers for years.

Sure is ... curious that Drudge dug this
up and put it up now.

He also has this:

SHOCK POLL: 24% THINK OBAMA MUSLIM
http://www.time.com/time/nation/article/0,8599,2011799,00.html

“Nearly one-third of the country thinks adherents of Islam should be barred from running for President — a slightly higher percentage than the 24% who mistakenly believe the current occupant of the Oval Office is himself a Muslim. In all, just 47% of respondents believe Obama is a Christian; 24% declined to respond to the question or said they were unsure, and 5% believe he is neither Christian nor Muslim.”

and

White House: Obama is ‘obviously’ Christian, prays daily...

NYT FLASHBACK: ‘As the son of the Muslim father, Senator Obama was born a Muslim under Muslim law as it is universally understood’...

In Defining Obama, Misperceptions Stick...

"Democratic allies say, because Mr. Obama is doing a poor job of communicating who he is and what he believes. "

Zer0 HAS to do a poor job of this communication. If people knew the real Hussein, they'd be even more disappointed.

Understanding Taqiyya - Islamic Principle of Lying for the Sake of Allah
by Warner MacKenzie
30 April, 2007

###

Lying and cheating in the Arab world is not really a moral matter but a method of safeguarding honor and status, avoiding shame, and at all times exploiting possibilities, for those with the wits for it, deftly and expeditiously to convert shame into honor on their own account and vice versa for their opponents.

If honor so demands, lies and cheating may become absolute imperatives.” [David Pryce-Jones, “The Closed Circle” An interpretation of the Arabs, p4]

“No dishonor attaches to such primary transactions as selling short weight, deceiving anyone about quality, quantity or kind of goods, cheating at gambling, and bearing false witness.

The doer of these things is merely quicker off the mark than the next fellow; owing him nothing, he is not to be blamed for taking what he can.” [David Pryce-Jones, “The Closed Circle”, p38]

The word “Taqiyya” literally means: “Concealing, precaution, guarding.” It is employed in disguising one’s beliefs, intentions, convictions, ideas, feelings, opinions or strategies.

In practical terms it is manifested as dissimulation, lying, deceiving, vexing and confounding with the intention of deflecting attention, foiling or pre-emptive blocking. It is currently employed in fending off and neutralising any criticism of Islam or Muslims.

What? No fatwas? They swoon over him like a brother. He bows back.

The Islamists recognize his brotherhood. An apostate is to be eliminated from the ranks of the Ummah. Period. The fact that they have issued nothing to that effect should be enough evidence of where his true loyalties lie.

They hate it when you lie to them. They hate it even more when they have been played. Doesn’t matter what party you are at that point. The LSM is finally realizing that they have been played like s Stradavarius.

This is also weird ..

I'm searching under Yahoo news to see where THIS vacation is, and this comes up as the 2nd photo from AP on the news page, with obama as the search term. Now it's the 1st image .. weeeeird. You click on it and get the description of his '06 trip to Kenya.
