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.

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.

The clip is from his [Obama's] visit to Iran in 2009.

What visit to Iran?
