Obama's Muslim Courtship
For those of us who prayed that Obama's Muslim outreach would be limited to his Turkey and Egypt speeches in which he praised Muslims and gave them credit for contributions to American culture that are non-existent, I am sorry to report that the President's words are only one part of his courtship of problematic Muslims.
In recent weeks, the Obama Administration has dropped all legal attempts to deny a visa to one Tariq Ramadan. Mr. Ramadan is a slick defender of his grandfather the founder of the radical Muslim Brotherhood and is a European intellectual rock star who has been banned from European countries and universities because of his radical views. A few years ago, in debate with Nicholas Sarkozy he called for a "moratorium" not a ban on the stoning of women in Muslim countries. He also wrote an article condemning Jewish intellectuals. These actions and some links with terrorists and the financing of terrorism caused the Bush Administration to refuse to allow him into the country.(For a full account of Ramadan's record read
Brother Tariq by Caroline Fourest a French journalist.)
In addition to giving Ramadan a pass into this country, the Obama administration's counter terrorism guru has been making more troubling news. His latest pronouncements include an intellectual love fest with a largely Muslim crowd at New York university. He defended the release of terrorists and entertained a
Muslim troublemaker who is dedicated to raising questions about who committed the terrorist attack on the World Trade Center.Mr. Brennan is the same man who defended the handling of the would be Christmas Day airplane bomber. He was not disturbed by the kid gloves treatment the terrorist received.
And now we have the Obama Administration
appointing what appears to be an
apologist for a terrorist supporter.There is an old saying, "When there is smoke there is fire": It appears there is a forest fire when it comes to suspicious
Muslims and the Obama Administration.
When Obama was first elected as our President - (I didn't vote for him) I wanted to be fair and accept him...Shortly thereafter I realized that he was Muslim. What a slap in the face to the American people. I am speechless because some people accept him, he's drug America into the mud, rubbed our noses in the dirt. I can't believe what has been done and it seems that everyone is outraged, but nothing happens. I'm keeping my guns close.
