The Dream of Muslim Outreach Has Become a Nightmare
RCP ^ | 22 July 2016 | Victor Davis Hanson

Posted on 07/23/2016 3:30:44 AM PDT by Rummyfan

When President Obama entered office, he dreamed that his hope-and-change messaging and his references to his familial Islamic roots would win over the Muslim world. The soon-to-be Nobel Peace Prize laureate would make the U.S. liked in the Middle East. Then, terrorism would decrease.

But, as with his approach to racial relations, Obama's remedies proved worse than the original illness.

Obama gave his first presidential interview to Al Arabiya, noting that he has Muslims in his family. He implicitly blamed America's strained relations with many Middle Eastern countries on his supposedly insensitive predecessor, George W. Bush.

In truth, religious intolerance, gender apartheid, illiteracy, autocracy, statism, tribalism and religious fundamentalism all guarantee poverty, economic stagnation and scapegoating. While much of Asia and Latin America progressed through reform, the Middle East blame-gamed its miseries on affluent Western nations and on Israel.

“Asia and latin America....blablabla” enough said !
“Religious fundamentalism....blablabla” !

That’s a rather rough statement !
Can’t you say the word iSSlam ? Does it hurt your mouth ?

And about obama , btw , i don’t think he had such “good intentions” but instead bad intentions AGAINST the western world !
Is it , again , too hard to think and to say clearly

From the article: When President Obama entered office, he dreamed that his hope-and-change messaging and his references to his familial Islamic roots would win over the Muslim world.

I read the article and I’m a pretty big VDH fan. But color me cynical: I just don’t buy his basic “Obama’s Good Intensions” premise.

My view is that Obama’s goal right from the get-go was to increase Sunni power and influence in the Middle East and the West as well. Based on that view he has been largely successful and there is no need to ask yourself the question: “How can he be so stupid?”, something we do daily here at FR.

Did Obama foresee the Jihadist attacks that are now a daily occurrence? I’m betting he did and his luke warm response to the rising death toll is evidence enough for me.

The a##wipe hates america because of all “HIS” shortcomings. The defective affirmative action president wants to get even with the people who kept the man down all these years. The rat party has taught them well

I hope I live to see the day when Obama is convicted of treason, among other crimes, and locked up in Gitmo with no parole.

WAS PRESIDENT OBAMA TRUTHFUL ABOUT MUSLIM HISTORY?

American historian WILLIAM FEDERER explains how Muslims overtake cultures...

Definition:
ISLAM: to submit
MUSLIMS: have submitted.

Muslim 3-Step Program:
* Religious - Immigrate to a country.
* Political - Increase in number.
* Militant - Eliminate those who oppose them.
Every Congressman and Senator should listen to this short discussion by American Historian by WILLIAM FEDERER on Islam.

During the Q & A a student asked why legislators are so weak when it comes to condemning Islamic aggression.

FEDERER responded, “3 Things.”
1. They are ignorant about the history of Islam.
2. They are afraid of Islam aggression.
3. Or, they are on the take.

Everything the Royal Idiot says and does is related to M/M Boobamba’s post-prez get-rich-quick plans.

You wont hear not even one discouraging word about Islam Muslims b/c they have tons of money that the Royal Idiot is salivating after.

There's big buck honorarium, donations, insider business deals, consultancies, tax-free havens......... think the nefarious Clinton Foundation.

Boobamba has two foundations (that we know of) and a billion dollar library fund.....all prepped for big big money.

The radical left attacks Trump for being a racist because he plans on controlling Muslim immigration into this country. According to the cockamamie thinking of the left, any President who does his constitutional duty by protecting the nation from Muslim butchers is a racist.

DONALD NEEDS TO START HERE TO GET THE JOB DONE

-Back in October 2011 one of the most astute lawmen in Washington, Cong Louis Gohmert (Repub-TX), a former judge, questioned then-DHS Secy Janet Napolitano about Mohamed Elibiary, a member of the Department of Homeland Security Council (DHS) with a high level security clearance.

Elibiary allegedly accessed, illegally, from his home computer, a Texas State and Local Intelligence Community database.....(Elibiary was ousted from the Homeland Security Advisory Council for shady activities---and settled in Texas).

Napolitano managed to unglue her lips from Obama's behind---and told Cong Gohmert she knew nothing about it, and that she would "personally" do the investigation. (waiting for hysterical laughter to die down)

=========================================================

Obama gave 5 MILLION federal hires Obama top security clearance.

======================================================

The following have top US security clearance

Arif Alikhan, assistant secretary of Homeland Security for policy development;

Mohammed Elibiary, a member of the Homeland Security
Advisory Council (ousted for using his home computer
to tap into a Texas State and Local Intelligence Community database
;

Rashad Hussain, the U.S. special envoy to the Organization of the Islamic Conference;

Salam al-Marayati, co-founder of the Muslim Public Affairs Council (MPAC);

Imam Mohamed Magid, president of the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA);

Eboo Patel, a member of President Obama's Advisory Council on Faith-Based Neighborhood Partnerships.

==================================================

Estimates range from several thousand to approximately eight million Islamic fighters inside the United States as we type. The exact number is unknown. Several thousand could create havoc if a coordinated attack was to occur. keep in mind, on 9/11, just 19 Islamic fighters and hijackers killed almost three thousand people. One has to believe the worst case scenario----that nearly eight million are already here....and being welcomed by Obama.

========================================================

Cong Michelle Bachman says the FBI told her Americans who joined ISIS are allowed back in the US.

===============================================

REFERENCE: Muslim Brotherhood is Advising Obama Not to Stop ISIS (SOURCE Texas Rep. Louie Gohmert posted on FR by Rusty)

< The last seven and a half years have been one nightmare after another.

NO DOUBT. I know his economic policies impacted me big time and almost put me in the poor house and I know so many others wiih the same story. I don't think I've ever seen so many businesses close during one presidency as his. And we've never had this many lies and deception thrown at us by conniving forces coming from every angle constantly. It's really hard to list all the ways he made our lives a living hell. It would take pages.

That, there, is the problem. Is he including himself in that number?

“I just don’t buy his basic “Obama’s Good Intensions” premise.”

There is a scene in “Vendetta,” where the woman he has killed says that she hoped to do something wonderful. He says I have not come for what you hoped to do. I have come for what you did.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T9Tuf_uQFFg

Although Obama has an odious superiority that drips from his lips and his posture, I think, like the woman in Vendetta, he had some grandiose vision that only if he did exactly the opposite of everyone before him, that everything would be sweetness and light. He was wrong. But, unlike the woman in Vendetta, he is incapable of seeing it as wrong or of ever apologizing. This is his narcissism in full and permanent flower.
