I think somebody is trying too hard to find a smoking gun. This video “ain’t “ it!

“Snopes” is a couple of leftist dingbats.

Don’t need to have absolute proof on this one, as he has stated things like
“ the sweetest sound is the call to prayer”
To: Travis McGee
Take a good look at his right shoulder. Maybe he gave the gang sign somewhere, but this looks like someone’s botched attempt to portray it.

What do you see that I don't? It's an AP photo by an AP photographer. I don't believe he shopped it.

I don’t believe that Obama is a Muslim.
Then again, I don’t believe that he’s really a Christian either.
I do believe that he’s an areligious, opportunistic narcissist. Who does things like this knowingly (having grown up in Muslim Indonesia) and deliberately to provoke reactions (feeding his narcissism) and distract (opportunistically) from the all the bad things (foreign and economic policy, undermining the Constitution) he’s responsible for.

Actions speak louder than signs. We know whose side Obama is on and it ain’t America’s!

There are a lot of desperadoes out there piecing together clips from one speech and claiming it comes from another with this "I am one of you" finger sign or the Arabic greeting - as in this YouTube video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QAiOHzvT2zg
Obama says" Eid-eh Shoma Mobarak". Translation: Happy New Year. The clip is from his visit to Iran in 2009. It's not the closing of his Cairo speech.
I have no doubt in my mind that Obama is a muslim. And if someone can find a valid photo or video, please post it. But, if we continue to post these reworked photos and videos that claim to "prove" Obama said this or did that, we're certainly not helping ourselves. We only make ourselves look like a bunch of idiots.

I see the problem. The white garment of the man standing to his right is over obamas right shoulder. Who's hand is that?

It is a milestone that American Thinker is saying this. The mainstream conservative sites are finally coming on board.They and we have known or surmised that we are “led” by a Mohammedan for a long time but everyone has been shy about mentioning it. Now NRO needs to come on board an then Washington Times. Fox News will be very late to the party and may have a tire blow out and never get there at all.

March the 6th, 2007. Nicholas D. Kristof of the New York Times, "
Mr. Obama recalled the opening lines of the Arabic call to prayer, reciting them with a first-rate accent. In a remark that seemed delightfully uncalculated, Mr. Obama described the call to prayer as 'one of the prettiest sounds on Earth at sunset.'"

There have been many smoking guns and this video is just larger caliber ammo.

It’s the timing that gives the context. The picture cannot be viewed in isolation without considering the timing. Someone says “Allahu akbar” behind Obama, and he flips up the Shahada finger. It’s on video. Timing makes the case. It wasn’t a random palsy-jerk throwing his arm up and giving him hand spasms.

Can you rephrase that? I don’t get your point or see an anomaly in either photo.

I certainly remember when MO made the ‘bu-lack powah’ fist on stage after BO was elected in 2008.
