US Joins Pro-Muslim 'Alliance of Civilizations'
INN ^ | 05/20/10 | Hana Levi Julian

Posted on 05/20/2010 2:41:44 AM PDT by Tigen

The Obama administration has announced the United States will join the United Nations Alliance of Civilizations, another openly anti-Israel organization.

The group was created in 2006 to find ways to bridge the growing divide between Muslim and Western societies – a goal wholeheartedly embraced by President Barack Obama, who has redirected American foreign policy in pursuit of the same goal.

The White House announcement stated that the move is intended to realize Obama's “vision of active U.S. engagement with other nations and international organizations,” a goal sometimes pursued, noted National Review Online columnist Brett D. Schaefer last Thursday, “even when there is little or no chance that doing so will advance U.S. interests.” ...snip

Since Obama took office a year ago, he has worked hard to reach out to the Islamic community of nations in a series of gestures that make it clear he is bending over backwards to strengthen ties with the Muslim world.

...the move is intended to realize Obama's “vision..."

Such visions figure prominently in the Islamist tradition.

I wouldn’t want to belong to a club that would have Obama as a member.

“he is bending over backwards to strengthen ties with the Muslim world”

He certainly is, including abandoning Israel, to please the Muslims.

“US Feared it Would be Anti-Israel - in 2006
At the time, the U.S. boycotted the group, expressing concerns that it would become a forum for bashing both Israel and the United States, in a manner similar to that of the U.N. Human Rights Council.”

Bush admin boycotted them, the Obama administration embraces them — will the American Jews ever wake up and stop supporting this anti-Israel administration?

The U.S. Should Not Join the ‘Alliance of Civilizations’

http://corner.nationalreview.com/post/?q=YzNhMzA4NjFmZjk3YzEyYmU4ODhkMzg3MWZiMTE3N2U=

This decision continues a troubling trend in U.S. foreign policy of engaging with multilateral organizations even when there is little or no chance that doing so will advance U.S. interests.

The AoC is the successor to the Iranian-proposed Dialogue of Civilizations, and is the brainchild of former U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan.

“So how much is this going to cost us?”

God’s wrath for turning against the apple of His eye.

Time for lamb’s blood and anointing oil on our doorways and lentels.

It would seem American Jews are liberals first, Jews second.

I can understand why he is doing this (besides being born Muslim) but there comes a point when it just looks weak. I think we passed that point.
