He makes a moral equivalency between the Holocaust and the Israeli occupation of Palestinian territory!!!!!He all but apologized for America’s ‘blunder’ in Iraq. No mention of terrorism in the speech. He knifes the previous US administration in the back in front of a foreign audience. No pat on the back for American military sacrifices in the Middle East. All this against a scenario where he visits and lauds dictatorial Saudi Arabia and Egypt and snubs democratic Israel. You better reread the speech.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4052613635559551416/8285283706571770111/comments/default/8844338281272092259'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4052613635559551416/8285283706571770111/comments/default/8844338281272092259'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://danielruwe.blogspot.com/2009/06/what-islam-is-and-isnt.html?showComment=1244384044119#c8844338281272092259' title=''/><author><name>My Files</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15489721698335087091</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://danielruwe.blogspot.com/2009/06/what-islam-is-and-isnt.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4052613635559551416.post-8285283706571770111' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4052613635559551416/posts/default/8285283706571770111' type='text/html'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4052613635559551416.post-1268596366120445134</id><published>2009-06-06T04:04:55.991-07:00</published><updated>2009-06-06T04:04:55.991-07:00</updated><title type='text'>You thought that Obama's speech was good????   I t...</title><content type='html'>You thought that Obama&amp;#39;s speech was good????   I thought that it was was horrifically nauseating.&lt;br /&gt;The caliber of stupidity that flows from this man&amp;#39;s mouth is MIND-BOGGLING.Obama says he believes that there are Israelis who want peace, giving off the impression that the normal assumption anyone would make is that all of Israel is against peace. From previous peace offers and agreements to the fact that Israelis have many times elected governments for the purpose of negotiating away land in exchange for promises of peace, it would seem obvious that most Israelis want peace. Also he confuses the desire for peace with the acceptance of a &amp;quot;two-state solution&amp;quot; that many Israelis now believe will bring them more war.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He talks about the &amp;quot;legitimate rights&amp;quot; of the &amp;quot;Palestinian people&amp;quot; but never mentions the desire for autonomy, independence or statehood for any people who don&amp;#39;t claim the Jews are occupying their land.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He talks about Israel stopping all settlements as called for in the Road Map to Peace. He talks as if that same road map has no specific and measurable obligations that the Palestinians are supposed to take. He also doesn&amp;#39;t believe his government must honor US commitments to Israel made by previous administrations.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Obama says we are not a Christian nation or a Jewish or Muslim nation, but a nation of citizens. He then later says that we could be considered (inaccurately) one of the biggest Muslim countries in the world.&lt;br /&gt;Obama criticizes Netanyahu for not verbally committing himself to the &amp;quot;two-state solution.&amp;quot; I have never heard him criticize Abbas regarding his refusal to accept Israel as a Jewish state or his refusal to acknowledge Jewish rights and historical connection to Israel. In fact, I don&amp;#39;t recall him criticizing Abbas on any issue of importance.&lt;br /&gt;The president&amp;#39;s speech is so detestable from the beginning that I can&amp;#39;t bother finishing it. He tells a Muslim audience of how Ellison was sworn in on Jefferson&amp;#39;s Koran but doesn&amp;#39;t explain that Jefferson read the Koran to gain an understanding of the faith responsible for holding Americans hostage in Algiers. You might have the impression John Adams respected the laws of Islam but here&amp;#39;s what he really thought of that religion :&amp;quot;THE ESSENCE OF HIS (Mohammed&amp;#39;s) DOCTRINE WAS VIOLENCE AND LUST: TO EXALT THE BRUTAL OVER THE SPIRITUAL PART OF HUMAN NATURE&amp;quot; (Adam&amp;#39;s capital letters). I gather President Adams&amp;#39; &amp;quot;tolerance&amp;quot; toward Islam is a little musunderstood by President Haremboy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I&amp;#39;m sure there&amp;#39;s more crap in this speech but I can&amp;#39;t read this.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4052613635559551416/8285283706571770111/comments/default/1268596366120445134'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4052613635559551416/8285283706571770111/comments/default/1268596366120445134'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://danielruwe.blogspot.com/2009/06/what-islam-is-and-isnt.html?showComment=1244286295991#c1268596366120445134' title=''/><author><name>C4SA</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://danielruwe.blogspot.com/2009/06/what-islam-is-and-isnt.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4052613635559551416.post-8285283706571770111' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4052613635559551416/posts/default/8285283706571770111' type='text/html'/></entry></feed>
