Obama on Islam: "All of us recognise that this great religion, in the hands of a few extremists, has been distorted"

All of us recognise that this great religion cannot justify violence," he added.

Speak for yourself, Mr President.
Many of us do realise that this religion not only justifies violence against non-muslims, it also encourages such violence.
What is worse is, it promises rewards in the after-life to those muslims who carry out such acts of violence.

The analysis listed below shows that Islam made Pakistan what it is today.

That of a backward and terror-infested Pakistan...

All it takes is the words "great religion" and all thought is expected to immediately halt. So is all inquiry, because inquiry will raise questions and no questions are tolerated because this is a "great religion", so waltz me around again, Willy.

Denouncing Marxism always did, and still does, evoke howls of protest and wails of "Better Red Than Dead" (and now "raaaaaaacism!" because the Marxist-in-Chief is of color) from the Left, but the rest of us were not expected to bow our heads in respect because it was not a Holy Entity. Rather, the fact that it was atheist was higher on the list of reasons for condemnation than the fact that said atheism was sponsored and enforced by the State.

So the Obamullah makes his meaningless and insincere pleas for "moderation" and "tolerance" and "justice" to two audiences: the Islamic, which is deaf to and scornful of such please from the kuffar, and the obedient flock of the church of PC/MC who are forbidden to see things any other way. Ironically, there is now only one protected species on the this environmental list, and that is Islam. The other great religions, especially Judaism and Christianity, are fair game.

Indeed Khushi. And I think Obama knows this, but like G.W. Bush can't stop being politically correct.

Like Robert Spencer and others always say, speak the truth about Islam and then move from that place of honesty and historical accuracy into making Islam better, if that's even possible.

Either way, I don't want my family to live in a land with anyone who thinks Mohammed was an admirable man, let alone the best human being that has ever or will ever live on earth.

I JUST saw this on the news (Today Show).

A 10-year-old girl in Mumbai asks Hussein "his opinion of Jihad." She specifically said, "Jihad."

Here's how Hussein replied: "First, I'd like to say that Islam is a great religion." Then he regurgitated the usual malarky of how it's "been distorted by a few extremists."

Well, I just wanted to spew, hearing that utter and complete bovine fertilizer from the president of the United States.

I know the Indian group is college students, but this girl appeared very young to me. After Hussein finished with his BS about Islam, the girl probably muttered "as*hole" under her breath.

Sheik Barack Obama is an enemy not only of the nation he presides over but Western Civilization itself as we know it! Let us hope and pray that his gross lies about “The Religion of Peace” will be seen for what they are.

Oh, and btw, people - Instead of being at Ft. Hood yesterday, attending the one-year-anniversary memorial service for the 13 American soldiers murdered last year by the Jihad doctrine of Islam, Hussein chose to be in Asia, where we find him telling heinous, egregious lies, such as this:

"The religion teaches peace, justice, fairness and tolerance."

Just unbelievable. Someone should call him on that and ask for some Koranic verses in which those qualities are taught.

Somebody do that, please.

Spoken like a true Muslim.

”The overwhelming majority want peace, justice, fairness and tolerance."

Translation: Islamic “peace” = peace of the grave, “justice” means sharia, “fairness” means Muslims rule, ”tolerance” means Muslims rule, you tolerate, or else…..

The religion teaches peace, justice, fairness and tolerance.

Prez Barack Hussein has every right to be ignorant and stupid. After all, he's an Ivy League Moron, and that's compelling. As Prez Dubya once said while rubbing the secret lamp at the Skull & Bones Club, "Go Yale, beat Harvard."

But what about us?

*** Ishaq 208 ***

Peace

When Allah gave permission to Mohammed to fight, the second Aqaba contained conditions involving war which were not in the first act of submission. Now we bound themselves to war against all mankind for Allah and Mohammed. He promised us a reward in Paradise for faithful service. We pledged ourselves to war in complete obedience to Mohammad no matter how evil the circumstances.

They shoulda taught Barack how to read in that fancy finishing school back in Honolulu. The expensive day school for which an unknown person paid his tuition. Duh.

*** 8:70 ***

Justice

O Mohammed! Say to those of the captives who are in your hands: If Allah knows anything good in your hearts, He will give to you better than that which has been taken away from you and will forgive you, and Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.

They also shoulda taught him some ethics & morals while they were at it. Even an illiterate like Prez Hussein can be taught these things, for example just look at how well such teaching went with Mohammed. Duhh.

*** 70:28 ***

Fairness

Lo! the doom of Allah is that before which none can feel secure, surely the chastisement of their Lord is a thing not to be felt secure of, and those who guard their private parts, except with their wives and their slave girls whom their right hands possess, for then Moslems are not to be blamed.

Globalists and socialists are by nature empty, greedy, pushy people. Just look at the body count under Uncle Joe and Chairman Zedong.

In the 1840s Marxism was born. Long before that, in the early 7th century, Mohammedism was born. Both belief systems were and are about other peoples' money, and for that reason both systems endure, and Marxism will endure until it is destroyed by Mohammedism.

Both manifested in the body of our awful Prez Hussein, an empty dumbass who revels in theft, and is now deploying America's great assets to snuff out peace, justice and fairness.

Turnspeak. Duhhh.

All of us recognise that this great religion, in the hands of a few extremists, has been distorted...

Does this dude ever quit telling lies?

Well, the phrase jehad has a lot of meanings within Islam. It is subject to lot of different interpretations.

*** 9:91 ***

There is no blame on those who are old, weak, ill, or who find no resources to spend on Jihad, holy fighting, if they are sincere in duty to Allah and His Messenger.

Apparently Prez Osama, like the two Nat'l Defense University professors in his employ, disagrees with Allah. Old, weak, ill, broke, these are things that keep one off the killing fields, and have absolutely nothing to do with being unable to hold an internal thinkathon struggle.

”The overwhelming majority want peace, justice, fairness and tolerance."

Well, that's undoubtedly true. What wasn't said by our fearless leader is that for the overwhelming majority, those terms would be defined thusly:

Peace----is the absence of opposition to Islam

Justice----meted out via Sharia law according to the tenets
of Islam and the example of Muhammad

Fairness----That since Muslims are adherents to the only
true religion, it's only fair that they should
have the dominant status in society.

Tolerance----That Islam and the ways of Muslims should not be
hindered, criticized or opposed in any way.

"Justice and tolerance"--

I read an interesting book by Alasdair MacIntyre entitled _Whose Justice? Which Rationality?_ in which he underscores how terms like "justice" and "reason" take their meanings from the traditions of discourse in which they are uttered. He further argues that enlightenment liberalism, far from being an appeal to "neutral" reason, is in fact one more "tradition of discourse".

Hence, I suspect that both Presdients Bush and Obama (and the next POTUS) will probably find dialogue with the Muslim world a case of two different traditions talking past each other.

I suspect that "tolerance" may be another such word. As an
heir of Spnioza, and postwar American liberalism, Obama thinks it means everyone respecting each other at all levels of society; his Muslim interlocutors will see it as conditioned on the dhimmi keeping their place.

This makes you appreciate Geert Wilders all the more when you hear other politicians parrot the line of islam a great religion peace blah blah. makes my stomach turn and want to strike at the screen when obama one talks!

Actually Obama has been an irritating sight to us anti - jihadi Hindu nationalists in India. He is sometimes offensively condescending, sometimes mouthing vacuous platitudes such as "Islam is a great religion".

However, I think of our leaders and it instantly has a sobering effect. The likes of our PM MM Singh would out-Obama Obama himself any day on matters of Islam, Pakistan and global jihad. No point blaming outsiders when our own leaders give out much more "bovine fertilizer" to use the words of a commenter here.

Sanjay

What a huge bunch of BS...Every Hindu who knows their history, would know in an instant that this was a song and dance routine...A little soft shoe shuffle for the folks...They are just to polite to boo...

It's Islam itself that is the distortion, a distortion of two earlier great religions -- Judaism and Christianity, with bits of Zoroastrianism and Arab paganism thrown in for spice.

Far be it from me to comment on American politics but you sure look to have elected a dud. I know because here in the UK we have elected several duds.
Then again most British Politicians can operate quite well without the teleprompter (they still LIE though). Obama seems incapable of that (operating without teleprompter that is) as I recently saw in his appalling performance during your mid term elections.
I read the link provided by MoorthyM. About right I think.
Between 1945 and 1948 we Brits made some serious mistakes. India and Israel were the worst. The latter involving pressure from the US and UN. The former leading to even more carnage. All whilst we were in disarray.

WE had just fought a devastating war and won, with welcome support from the US. I'd guess we were tired as well as bankrupt. We have never recovered.
In a different scenario then perhaps we would have avoided the mistakes over the partition of India and the formation of the Israeli State within the Palestinian Mandate.
Then again we later made serious mistakes in Africa - not least with the former Southern Rhodesia, now Zimbabwe. Those mistakes occurred AFTER we had partially recovered from WW2 so maybe by then we'd lost it.

Also don't forget that between 1946 and 1948 terrorists operating in the "Palestinian Mandate" weren't just Arab groups. They were also Jewish Groups and some of those became Israeli politicians. Ben Gurion for example. Terrorism isn't just the preserve of Islam.

Similarly we had problems with the IRA until very few years ago. Seems to be starting again.
I would remind US readers that the IRA was in part funded by the US group Noraid.
Does your Catholic neighbour fund terrorism in Ireland?
Be clear the Brits have experienced religiously motivated terrorism for 70 or more years. The Muslim version is fairly recent. The previous ones were "Christian" or Jewish.
THINK my US friends.

You lie!

And the left wonders why substantial doubt remains, his protestations to the contrary notwithstanding, as to whether this man is a Muslim or not.

When i was watching Obama addressing Students,first thing came to in my mind ,whether he is representing USA or Islamic world.

I really wonder what obama would have answered if someone had raised question of minority treatment in islamic countries and ongoing persecution of minorities in Islamic countries.

"Great religion" huh?

See here for some opposing points of view from across history:
http://vincep312.home.comcast.net/~vincep312/islam.html

"YES WE CON"

Nobody buys Obama's BS in India. If any community knows what Islam is all about, the Hindus know it much much better than Obama.

"All of us recognise that this great religion cannot justify violence"

Do you, Mr.Obama? I dont think so. The man conned the American public during his campaign and now attempts to con Indians. His line should now be "Yes we CON"

"The religion teaches peace, justice, fairness and tolerance. All of us recognise that this great religion cannot justify violence," he added.

That a president of the United States can speak such outright lies and untruths again and again (Obama and Bush) is unconscionable. Where is the justice, fairness and tolerance in Saudi Arabia or Iran, "pure" Islamic states, with their religious police running around, women subjugated, gays persecuted and executed or forced into sex change operations, other religions systematically squeezed out and crushed as prescribed in no uncertain terms in the Koran? What about the endless injustices, wars, genocides being committed not only in the present day, by BOTH small groups and national governments, but also throughout Islamic history? All of it performed by people quoting the Islamic texts and the example of the warlord Mohammed. All of it.

It is madness, complete madness that Obama continues to deny the truth and facts openly and continue along these lines. All those good men and women of the armed forces who have literally died because of political correctness and the determined refusal to honestly understand the enemy and actually read his by-the-numbers playbook. What a disgrace.

"All of us recognise that this great religion, in the hands of a few extremists, has been distorted"

And Obama is one of the extremists distorting islam into a religion of peace...

Islam is a great deathcult.

You try to leave, they try to kill you.

Nothing else needs to be known about this dismal sect of pseudo-Abrahamic religionists.

You are not familiar with the incident involving obama and congressman Joe Wilson - google for it.

These comments by Obama actually strengthen the case that he is no longer a Muslim.

By calling on Muslims to get along with non-Muslims, he is calling for something that is un-Islamic.

You can all see that when an opportunity was given to young Indians to pose questions to Obama, the very first question posed was on the issue of jihad. This is because Indians have suffered a lot at the hands of jihad and jihadism. We need jihad to end, and to be gone for good - there's just no living with it.

Obama is as clueless about Islam as he is about why his party suffered such defeat at the polls last Tuesday (a lack of communication skills according to Mr. Hope and Change and not due to his policies). Not good. We have a clueless man with a big ego in the Oval Office. If only he were a nothing. Trouble is he's a very harmful nothing.

Obama on Islam: "All of us recognise that this great religion, in the hands of a few extremists, has been distorted"

All of us recognize that this extreme religion, has by the hands of a few administration officials, been greatly distorted.

All of us by now are greatly disturbed by the extreme distortion of the truth by this administration.

All of us recognize the extreme need for a new president.

It appears that Hussain Obama has a "distorted notion" of his own when he said that, "All of us recognise that this great religion, in the hands of a few extremists, has been distorted."

The problem is quite obvious, we have a president who either actually believes his own "distorted notion" about Islam or he is totally confused. By his very own words and deeds Hussain Obama has played (on behalf of the American people) the role of the dhimmi and is an overt apologist for Islam around the world. Hussain Obama has gone to great lengths to promote lies that Islam as a "religion of peace," and that "Islam has been hijacked by a few extremists within one of the worlds great religions." Hussain Obama has purged all of our our national security documents and policies of any references to Islam, eg. to include the terms jihad, Islam, terrorism, etc. He is afraid to call the enemy Islam; rather, we are at war with "terrorism." Terrorism is a technique, not an enemy! Now we have a sitting president who is afraid to call our enemy by name!! This is the ultimate act of dhimmitude! Acts of terrorism are now to be called "manmade disasters." The only "manmade disaster" I see is Hussain Obama and his misguided, ignorant, and dangerous attitudes and policies about the existential threat that Islam poses to America and all other non-Islamic Western nations.

The 1400 year history of Islam shows that is cannot be appeased. First it deceives, then it makes demands, then it subjugates, and then it dominates all native cultures. Muslims are continuing to immigrate to American under a term known as "civilizational jihad." Once here, they refuse to assimilate into our American culture and begin making their own demands for us to assimilate into their ideology. Then they begin to wage a "stealth jihad" against our Constitution and American way of life using the very fabric of our own culture against us. There is no freedom of religion in Islam, but they demand it of us! There is no freedom of speech in Islam, but they demand it of us! And it goes on and on...Muslims consider our manmade Constitution pure ignorance and will abide by it only so long as they do not have the power to destroy it. Make no mistake, Islam is a wolf in sheep clothing, and the wolf has already entered into our home!

By his very words and deeds, Hussain Obama, during wartime, has brazenly weakened our national security and emboldened and strengthened our adversaries around the world. Several words come to mind, "treason," "sedition," and "impeachment." Perhaps Hussain Obama has already had these words purged from our government dictionaries as well?!

Only a handful of American muslims practise their cult dogma outside of al-Bannist (Egypt), Khomenist (Iran), Wahabist (Saud Terrorist Entity), Maududist (Pakistan), Ataturkist (Turkey), Dahlanist (Indonesia), Rahmanist (Afghanistan), Gangohist (India; Deoband) jihad ordenance. Tens of millions of innocent people have been murdered by the subversive infiltrators who embrace the islamo-nazi movement.

Al-Hussanyi tried to supplement Hitler's extermination beliefs, during WW2. Unfortunately, post war indulgence of Genocide, rests on the abominable leadership delivered by America's dhimmi Presidents.

Well actually very FEW of us supported Obama - just the MSM and the politicians. We aren't all brain dead.

my last was to PMK. the REPLY function seems to be working imperfectly.

Certainly, Mr Predident, you face a great challenge... trying to whitewashing Islam and Jihad continuosly while everyone knows that you are just lying.

How longer will Obama repeat himself until he appears too stupid or deceiving about the same well-know subjects?

Maybe I -or you- have been too harsh... after all, it is an answer that he must give to a little girl.

forgive my English.

OBAMA will destroy the Democratic Party very soon.

Obama is supposed to be so smart. Why doesn't he just read the Koran and stop embarrassing himself?

Okay Odumbo if the violent are really only a tiny minority, it should be really easy for the vast majority of the peaceful to reign them in. But they dont want to and they wont.

Where's "Indian Tiger?"

The reportage of Obama's speech above does not reproduce exactly what Obama said. His words were "...and [of]more than a billion people who practise Islam, the overwhelming majority view their obligation to their religion as one that reaffirms peace and justice and fairness and tolerance".

There is great ambiguity in his words in the sense that 'peace and justice and fairness and tolerance' mean different things to different people, but he did not say "The religion teaches peace, justice, fairness and tolerance." at least, not in the video clip.

He is not so dumb as people here seem to think he is. He was careful with his words which, although politically correct, are hard to criticise if carefully attended to. Even I, a strong opponent of Islam, accept that the majority of Muslims do want peace, justice, fairness and tolerance even in the western sense of these words. The trouble of course lies in the texts which justify the opposite and that minority of Muslims who are determined to implement the texts.

This is where Robert does the world a favour, drawing its attention to the advances being made by this minority because the western world is afraid to recognise and admit what is happening under their noses.

Of course, Obama does not help but he was careful not to say that black is white.

"Islam is a religion of peace" is a very dangerous lie that can get us subjugated or killed. It is the train on which the stealth jihad rides in. It is one of the lies bought by the very deceivable left, and apostate Christian churches. There are now Chrislamic churches where the koran is read from as well as the bible, and considered inspired by God. The first time I experienced this was in a Babtist church in Jerusalem where they read from the koran.

http://thelastcrusade.org/2010/11/04/chrislam-spreads-throughout-america/

I would like to add that Rick Warren whom Obama chose for his Christian inaguration prayer is big on Chrislamism.

Impeach him.

There we go again. The Pot calling the Kettle racist. That Obama sure is a crafty one. Hiding in plain site like he does.

There is a history behind some of the minority hire-es at the white house. So let us not be silly by thinking the House is unknowing.

“This great religion, in the hands of a few extremists, has been distorted to justify violence towards innocent people.”
Hussein Obama

Did it's warlord prophet really teach and practice peace and tolerance? Obama is lying, he went to an Islamic school when young, and knows very well the life and teachings of Mohammed.

She asks, what you think of jihad, or jihadis, what do you think about them?
The obowman dances around this question and finally gives the usual cop out answer that boils down to " we must treat each other nice. and root out these jihadis cause they distort the great religion of islam,, oh no it's not up to the muslims to fix their great reliigon no,, it's up to you and all others to treat the muslims fairly like Gandhi did." It's obvious without his speech writers and his teleprompter he can't answer anything.

Is this man serious? But I suppose he must gargle up the right garbage when trying to soft soap his Muslim "interests" - because in the world mr. Obama that is all that counts - their are no FRIENDS, only INTERESTS. So go and study the history of this "one of the world's great religions" and you might just find that Islam started off with murder and violence and I have not find any evidence to prove the contrary.

Is this man serious? I suppose he must gargle up the "right" kind of garbage to soft soap "one of the world's great religions". Get real little man Obama - there are no FRIENDS in the world you need to impress, only INTERESTS, and you are certainly not acting in the US of A's best interests. Islam was born with murder and violence and I have found no historical evidence, past or present, to the contrary.

Barack Obama, idiot savant, proclaims:

“The religion teaches peace, justice, fairness and tolerance.”

Well, perhaps only Charlie Rose of PBS would believe that. It wouldn’t surprise me that Obama’s Muslim appointee and outreach maven wrote his (telepromptered) remarks. Or it may be that Obama spoke off the cuff, for once, but whenever he leaves the script, he usually puts his foot in his mouth. In any event, Islam is a veritable Tower of Taqiyya. The “peace, justice, fairness, and tolerance” contained in its bizarre tenets are promised to other Muslims (well, to some other Muslims, heretics get the pogrom treatment), not to non-Muslims of any stripe.

What about those nefarious “extremists”? Well, Barack, the fact is that they are obeying the central tenets of Islam, which ought to give you pause for thought (but won’t, you’re hardly an original thinker). The pious, non-“extremist” Muslims, if they have any reservations about Islam or what the Koran commands them to do or about the propriety of the actions of their fellow Muslims, just keep their mouths shut. Discreet silence is the better part of wisdom, for they know they’ll be targeted, isolated, frozen, and destroyed, Alinsky-style. And it would not be beyond credibility to claim that it’s likely these “extremists” – the suicide bombers as well as the Ibrahim Hooper-types of CAIR, ISNA, et al., who are lawsuit happy and are always playing the victim and “bigotry” cards– have adopted Alinsky’s “Rules for Radicals” to make inroads in the U.S., both groups acting to achieve the same goal – the Islamazation of America. The two kinds of Islamists are just two more kinds of "community organizers."

The Communists, the Nazis, and Fascists all adopted the same tactic in their bids for power and hegemony, and Islam, being a totalitarian, theocratic ideology, because it shares the same anti-mind and anti-freedom premises, has a natural affinity with those “secular” ideologies, as well.

Just as this great country in the hands of a person such as Obama and his element much longer could become a dictatorship. Beware the Executive Orders or; Federal Fatwas.

As the pastor of Denver Bible Church in Colorado, I challenge president Barack Obama's statement about Muslims that, "The overwhelming majority want... tolerance." Is he unaware that within the entire country of Saudi Arabia censors religion even to the banning of non-Islamic houses of worship. With it's Islamic government, with Muhammad's tomb, and called "the land of the two holy mosques" in Mecca and Medina, it is the official Islam's most holy nation, and yet, Obama is silent, are are the Muslim masses, over the religious discrimination and lack of tolerance is Saudi Arabia.

What would one expect from Barak "Hussein" Obama and the President of USA ( an ass-licker country of oil-rich Muslim country swaudi Arabia ! ) on Islam and Pakistan ? USA's whole economy depends upon the oil-supply and investment of petro-dollars from Saudi Arabia and its Afganistan War depends upon the military supply routes in Pakistan ! In view of these cold facts of life it was premature of Indians to expect US president Obama to denounce both Islam and Pakistan in spite of the well-known truth that both Islam and Pakistan have been the cause of 9/11 !!!!!!
On the contrary , the other cold fact is when 9/11 happened USA spred no time in attacking Afganistan and Iraq whereas today when everyone in USA knows that the nerve centre of Al-Quaida is Pakistan and it is Saudi Arabia which is the source of finance to Pakistan , however , USA is neither taking action against Pakistan nor Saudi Arabia ! Inshallah ( as they say in Muslim countries ) the Saudi-Pakistan combine will be the life-long irritant to USA in its war against terrorism ! Unfortunately for the reasons given above USA will not be able to threaten this "Green" Saudi-Pak combine as it did to the "Red" combine of COMENCON communist countries during the cold war era ! Incidentally , communist China too helps Pakistan with nuclear technology and rockets for which , in all probability , Pakistan pays China from the finances it gets from both USA and Saudi Arabia ! It is also plausible that Pakistan gets free "Islamic" aid from Qatar and United Arab Emirates !
The bottom line is the "Pan-Islamic" threat to USA from the "Greens" , who have replaced the good old "Reds" , is real ! Perahaps Nastradamus's prediction that the thirld world war will begin from the actions of a warlord wearing "Green" bandana and hailing from "the land of Mohammed" may once again come true soon !

It is significant that Barry Hussein isn’t visiting any Hindu shrines in India. He is spending most of his time indulging in taqiyya (so what else is new?) and praising Islam. He and his entourage have “occupied” the recently terrorized Taj Mahal Hotel. This is a lot like erecting a mosque near Ground Zero.

I believe that one of the goals of his trip is to promote Islam in India. This is pretty much one of his goals in the US – Islamo-Marxism. Complete totalitarianism. He’s a VERY dangerous man.

Aside from the same much overused tired rhetoric, Obama shows his own intellectual dishonesty when he speaks definitively of Islam as he is no authority on the subject when he was merely asked for his opinion of jihad and jihadis. Bush has done it. Blair has done it. Obama has done it many times, and continues to do so.

Jesus is the WAY TRUTH AND LIFE

Matt 24:15 following, ” 15 When therefore you shall see the abomination of desolation, which was spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place: he that readeth let him understand. 16 Then they that are in Judea, let them flee to the mountains: 17 And he that is on the housetop, let him not come down to take any thing out of his house: 18 And he that is in the field, let him not go back to take his coat. 19 And woe to them that are with child, and that give suck in those days.” Henry Crux suggests that it is time to flee, for the Koran, that Omen of death and destruction, is now set up in the holy place where it ought not to be. It sits on a stand, right next to the Bible, in the holy place. The end is near, even at the doors.
