Obama reaches out to Muslims

[Loshali]

He basically says, 'we are the not your enemy'. Calls on his 'relatives'...

Problem is that this guy is an idealist.....and the radical Muslims are fanatics.....idealists get killed by fanatics.....he needs to become a realist and fight the war to win, rather than trying to sooth the savage beast. Radical Muslims are not interested in compromise....their ideology has no room for it....they are to kill or convert infidels and impose the "will of Allah" on the world, so that their prophet can return to them....no negotiation....we have to destroy them, or be destroyed by them....why can't this fruitcake just admit to the truth.,....

I don't think he's a Muslim....he's definitely a sympathizer, but I highly doubt he's a practicer...

he's half&half!!

I grew up and spent many years of my life in a Baptist church. Although I dont call my self a 'Baptist', its hard to fall away from these core values I was taught for years and years... I would think the muslim traditions, which are pounded into the young, including Obama, wouldn't fall far from him, either. I agree he's definitely a sympathizer and is very well aware of their tactics and stances.

(not a religious debate, just using the Baptist example).

I completely concur with your analogy.....

He converted to Christianity when he began to contemplate a political career. His formidable years growing up were spent in a fundamentalist Muslim school in Jakarta! He was raised a Muslim!

If you want a real eye opener, pick up a english version of the Koran....I've read quite a bit of it. I am well grounded in my beliefs and I would not recommend it to the uninformed.

In Obamas newest book it clearly states (If the political winds were to shift in a nasty direction he will stand by the muslim religion) I thought it was in God we trust? God? who?........................:confused:

We lived through Carter, Clinton and 2 Bushes. We will survive as a nation. It might be tough, but we will survive.

I spent several years in the muslim world. Have also read the Koran out of courisity.
You will never convince me we can live in peace with them. They are taught it is ok and right to kill all non belivers.

There is no tolerance with them.
