Obama to urge UN to confront roots of Muslim rage

The story says that he will affirm the freedom of speech, but the "roots of Muslim rage" can only be "confronted" by abandoning it. So what he will actually do is unclear. "Obama to urge UN to confront roots of Muslim rage," by Ben Feller for the Associated Press, September 25 (thanks to Block Ness):

NEW YORK (AP) -- Campaign politics shadowing every word, President Barack Obama on Tuesday will challenge the world to confront the root causes of rage exploding across the Muslim world, calling it a defining choice "between the forces that would drive us apart and the hopes we hold in common."

Obama will step before the United Nations General Assembly and declare that the United States will not shrink from its role in troubled, transitioning nations despite the killing of four Americans in Libya, including U.S. ambassador Chris Stevens, and more than 50 people total in violence linked at least in part to an anti-Muslim film....

"Today, we must affirm that our future will be determined by people like Chris Stevens, and not by his killers," Obama said of the U.S. ambassador, who was killed during an assault on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya, that the White House has deemed a terrorist attack. "Today, we must declare that this violence and intolerance has no place among our United Nations."...

"Make no mistake: a nuclear-armed Iran is not a challenge that can be contained," Obama says in his speech. He adds: "That is why a coalition of countries is holding the Iranian government accountable. And that is why the United States will do what we must to prevent Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon."...

The dominant theme of Obama's U.N. speech will be his response to the protests raging in places across the Middle East and North Africa. As he has for days, Obama will condemn the violence, defend democratic principles of free speech and promise no U.S. withdrawal of outreach.

Much of the growing ire is aimed at the United States because of anti-Islam film produced in this country, but the White House has now deemed the attack on its consulate in Libya a "terrorist attack" and has not ruled out the possibility it was premeditated. Obama now says it "wasn't just a mob action."

"There are no words that excuse the killing of innocents," Obama says in the speech excerpts. "There is no video that justifies an attack on an embassy. There is no slander that provides an excuse for people to burn a restaurant in Lebanon, or destroy a school in Tunis, or cause death and destruction in Pakistan."...

Polling shows Obama has a clear edge over Romney when voters are asked who they think is a stronger leader and would better protect the country.

Which shows that the voters who were polled have not the first foggiest idea of what is going on in the world today.

“…Whether it (trailer, Muhammad full movie – Innocence of Muslims 74 Min, Obama wants to reject it) is distasteful or offensive. It is covered by the right to freedom of expression. In Europe as in the U.S. (1st Amendment)

Backed by nothing is the violation of the grounds of the American embassies in Cairo and Benghazi. The murder of four embassy officials and apparently previous rape of Ambassador Stevens are each an act of WAR. …“ by Lawyer Joachim Nikolaus Steinhöfel

(video) U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton calls anti Islam film, “disgusting & reprehensible”

vs. Allah, Q. 8:12 “… I will CAST TERROR into the hearts of those who have disbelieved”

It will probably just be the usual Western politician blather about the “roots” of Muslim rage being injustice, poverty, lack of education, lack of opportunity, etc. Anything but the truth. This stuff is getting so stale and predictable it’s ridiculous.

Rasullula Obama has a gift of gab...he also has a strong tendency to deception and lies...When you mix those, you get a big BS'er...Shuck and jive...a little soft shoe shuffle for the folks...A forger and a fraud who commits acts of treason almost daily, and is deliberately wrecking the country, is who we want to re-elect?...Really?

Figuring out the roots of Muslim rage? This one is simple. The roots of Muslim rage is the damn religion that Muslims adhere to. Get rid of Islam and you'll get rid of the rage thing. You'll also get rid of other things like honor killings, no progress, excessive whining, massive amounts of self-pity, paranoia, scapegoating and persecution of non-Muslims.

Root of Muslim rage : Islam. Ban ISLAM


Thera change in wind, it seems. He used to condemn the fil now he wants to flush the Muslim rage. Wait it is election.

actually what he said is good and make sense. Just tell the UN to read the Koran, and then see the rage.

The real roots of Muslim rage is Islam itself. This death cult warps both the soul and the mind.

"The story says that he will affirm the freedom of speech, but the "roots of Muslim rage" can only be "confronted" by abandoning it."

I disagree, or think it is too soon to say that because "Confronted" doesn't actually mean anything specific and the experpts don't specify what the president will say the roots to be or exactly how they should be confronted.

As the paragraph stands it does not express why Mr. Spencer thinks that the supposed "roots of muslim rage" can only be confronted by abandoning freedom of speech. The article itself does not express what the president will say about how to confront the root of supposed muslim rage specifically.

It is troubling that he is taking "muslim rage" seriously enough to address in the first place.

Especially because we all now know that the supposed rage over this movie is a complete illusion.

Absolutely no one has volunteered a single example from the movie showing why it's offensive or untrue. Neither has anyone given an example when asked for one directly.

The only responce I've recieved when asking for an example is sophistry and abuse.

"It is troubling that he is taking "muslim rage" seriously enough to address in the first place."

I was refering to the president in that sentance.

Obama to urge UN to confront roots of Muslim rage
..................................

The "roots of Muslim rage" are that the free West has failed to completely submit to Islam—nothing more.

Despite all the West's appeasement of Islam, it still—generally—allows freedom of speech, and that includes the freedom to question or even criticize Islam.

This is completely unacceptable for supremacist Muslims, and they shown again and again that they will murder us for it.

What hopes do we hold in common? Spell it out, Mr. President...

More:

Obama will step before the United Nations General Assembly and declare that the United States will not shrink from its role in troubled, transitioning nations...
..................................

In other words, we will continue to fork over boatloads of "foreign aid", even to nations that *murder our diplomatic staff*.

Indeed, Obama described the murder of our consular staff as a "bump on the road". Repulsive—and false. This "road" leads straight to Shari'ah hell, and nowhere the civilized West wants to go.

There is no slander that provides an excuse for people to burn a restaurant in Lebanon, or destroy a school in Tunis, or cause death and destruction in Pakistan."...

For an American president to condemn the work of a private citizen that decries the violent oppression of the Copts and paints an entirely accurate—albeit poorly executed—portrait of the "Prophet" per the texts of Islam *is appalling*. Calling this a 'defense of freedom of speech' is simply grotesque.

confront the koran

that is the root of muslim rage

Ya' just "urge" 'em doncha know. What a crock.

Ya' just "urge" 'em doncha know. What a crock.

"Make no mistake: a nuclear-armed Iran is not a challenge that can be contained," Obama says in his speech.

This sounds like the USA has no power to stop a nuclear Iran!

People aping the actions of the psychopath Mohamed is the root of Islam's (and civilization's) problems.
