The Indonesian Jemaah Islamiyah is responsible for the 2002 Bali bombings, and has been designated a terrorist organization. I am sure this is not the same group, but it doesn't sound much better. This entry in Obama's Community blogs (thanks to Pamela and LGF) is so over the top -- supporting Iranian nukes, raging about the "Zionist entity," saying that Obama will fight for Muslims -- that I think it is a hoax. We shall see how things shake out now that it will be getting a little attention. Surely they will take it down -- won't they?
Jemaah Islamiyah For ObamaWe are a group that supports social justice for our oppressed Muslim brothers all over the world. We support Barack Obama for President because he is sympathetic to the plight of Muslims. He is a man of integrity, who will not be bullied by the neo-cons and the zionists. He will stand up for our oppressed palestinian brothers and sisters, whose land is being illegally occupied by that evil zionist entity whose name I just hate to even write.
Greetings Fellow Obama Supporters! By Fatima - Mar 31st, 2008 at 10:13 pm EDTWelcome to Jemaah Islamiyah! My name is Fatima, and I'm thrilled to be supporting Barack Obama for President. For now, we have a man of integrity, who will fight for the rights of Muslims everywhere. Allah has blessed us with a man who will stand up to the neoconservatives and the racist zionists. I believe with all my heart that Barack Obama will stop the American occupation of Iraq. No longer will American soldiers be able to kill our women and children with impunity.
Mr. Obama will also talk to Iran's leader Mahmoud Amadinejad, whom the current chimp in the White House has treated so badly. I mean why should American and Israel be able to have nukes but not Iran? That is very unfair. Obama will right that wrong.
Furthermore, Senator Obama will take a much more rational approach in the Middle East. No longer will that zionist entity, whose name I hate to even write be able to oppress our Palestinian brothers and sisters with impunity. If anyone can stop the illegal occupation of Palestinian lands, I know it is Barack Obama!
UPDATE, 2:51PM PDT: A few hours ago Fatima's message, but not the site posting, was taken down, and now the whole thing is gone.
Its gotta be a hoax.....it has to be.......its too perfect. And why isn't anyone vetting these entries? I mean JI and the New Black Pantehr Party? Now do I think it has some truth too it? Absolutely.
By an admittedly unscientific sniff test, it's a hoax folks!
Usually, jihadis are incoherent...........
It certainly does seem to be a hoax.
Unfortunately, it is also a completely accurate description of how those in the House of Submission feel about Senator Obama.
I don't really like McCain, but the thought of Obama in the Oval Office scares the &%#^ out of me.
"I mean why should American and Israel be able to have nukes but not Iran? That is very unfair. Obama will right that wrong."
Good Grief. And I do mean Grief. Lots of it.
Sure it's a hoax ... after all it's been removed from Obama's website, hasn't it?
Hasn't it?
"I mean why should American and Israel be able to have nukes but not Iran?"
How could anyone (except an Iranian) ask this question with a straight face?
And, all of that "oppressed Muslim brothers" garbage above is really making me physically sick. It's a good thing I haven't eaten breakfast yet.
the only "current chimp" s, whose house of terror is Mahmoud Amadinejad. this guy Jemaah Islamiyah otherwise sees Obama fairly correct.
Fake?...Maybe, but I don't doubt there is a muslimah named Fatima who believes these things about Barack.
Many liberal/leftists/socialists seem to think the same things. Reminds me of Al Sharpton singing the song 'Barack the Magic Negro'. Now that was funny.
I heard this weekend from a family member that a radio show reported that Obama was a moslem until her was 31 when his wife counseled him that to run office he'd have to be a Christian. Anyone heard that?
Little Green Footballs is on Obama's Website, also:

Perhaps someone can set up a JihadWatch blog for Obama to read, as well....
Cheers
Jemaa Islamiya is so Indonesia, Obama has an al-qaeda blog in his web site. That's the All-American mujahedin.

Another hoax no doubt but why keep it in the webpage. I suspect supportive webmasters.
Didn't Obama say in one of his books that he supports the rights of Muslims everywhere?
It might be a hoax. Then again, it might not.
I say it's a fake. Nobody in JI can write let alone speak English that well. Not even their terrorist representing scumbag Muslim Team lawyers can speak English that well.
"the current chimp in the White House", sounds to me that she is insinuating Obama is a Chimp. Obama be the next Chimp in the WhiteHouse, I believe that is her implication and I DEMAND OUTRAGE.
It's not over until Fat Ima sings...but wait, she can't sing because music is haram! What a conundrum!
LGF exposed a "socialist" blog on Obama's site that contained antisemitic rants. After being exposed that blog was quickly removed from Obama's official website, even though the blog had been at Obama's site since April.The question is not whether Obama shares these antisemitic views. What's important to note is that antisemites apparently feel comfortable with Obama.
Hoax.
And still the jihad/Islam "debate" will be based on lies and personal attacks.
I'm no fan of Obama, but this is no way to run an honest discussion of both remaining candidates' positions on Islam. Stop the lying and start talking. This is bull****.
It is a fake entry.

But, it has been up since March.
Read the post at Urban Grind.
He tried to post "Jews against Obama" and got a notice that it would have to be approved by the administrator. When he posted by Jemaa Islamiyah, no notice, went up smooth as silk...still there.
They took it down. Every time these links on his site go up, someone takes it down the minute it is on Jihad Watch.
"Jemaah Islamiyah" reputedly means Community of muslims, or similar. That's what Indonesia told Australia when we complained about Jemaah Islamiyah being a terror group in Indonesia, bombing churches and then organising the Bali bombing. They said things like "It is meaningless and insulting to clain that Jemaah Islamiyah is a terrorist group. You are accusing all Indonesians of being terrorists" (the gist from memory, not an exact quote). This is confusion induced by the overarching claims of Abu Bakir Bashir's group to being the true community of faithful muslims.
So anyone can have their own Jemaah Islamiyah, without it even being a hoax.
It would appear that Rove is back in business. Ironically, working for the man he once labeled as having an illegitimate, black child.
Even though this is a fake, this part was amusing (or rather incredulous):
"I believe with all my heart that Barack Obama will stop the American occupation of Iraq. No longer will American soldiers be able to kill our women and children with impunity."
Now, I wish our men and women were not in Iraq, but the idea that it is *American soldiers* doing all the killing of women and children over there is just farcical (perhaps that was the intent). If the *Muslims* in Iraq (Iraqi Muslims and imported Muslims) would stop suicide bombing crowded civilian markets, putting explosives under the burqas of women and remote detonating them, etc, then I guarantee you the body bag count in Iraq would drop amazingly close to zero.
Good God - this is ridiculous. Can you people not see you're being manipulated by the GOP to help them smear Obama so you can have another 'regular guy' in the white house running our country. what you'll get instead (like the past 8 years) is the worst most incompetent government, and one that takes your money and your lives to support the wealthy and large corporations. can we stop with the muslim nonsense about obama, fake posts on his open blog site, etc. - it's a giant smoke screen (along with gay marriage, flag pin, hussein, etc.) to make you forget about your friend or family member that is going back to that war based on lies for the 3rd time, or who was killed or maimed over there, and to take your thoughts off of the heavily subsidized oil industry taking all of your money for their fat cats, and the fact that we are not getting off of oil, and for the multinationals to be subsidized to take your jobs away and sell crap made in china at immensely higher profits - while you live on credit and home equity and buy more junk they make to make them rich.
Stop it America! Wake up - pay attention, read something, stop with the nonsense and the phony issues - we are in an economic crisis, we've been encouraged to 'consume' instead of save, our nations coffers have been emptied to give millionaires billions of dollars, our young people are being killed in the wrong war. And all the while they're whispering about 'hussein obama' and 'he's a muslim', and he's not patriotic without that pin, and the 'terrorist jab' fist bump - disgusting smear campaign underway - coordinated by roger ailes, and karl rove. It's time for a change. they're not solving your problems people, they're making them and they're hoping you won't notice.
To be on an anti-jihad website and to be supporting the people that took their eye off of bin laden to go into a war with a completely contained mad man - who by the way helped keep iran in check - IS AGAINST YOUR OWN INTERESTS.
It's time for change, a new energetic young leader, not beholden to the same old special interests pushing the same tired old divisive propaganda and smears. The lies won't fool us again.
