While Obama was in Malaysia during his little Asian trip, he stopped over in Malaysia yesterday. While he was there, he toured the Nations largest mosque, taking off his shoes to respect his Muslim culture. As he was chatting it up with the Imam, he was asked by said Imam to end oppression against Muslims worldwide. Let me just insert here, what oppression exactly is this Imam talking about? Muslim women perhaps, but certainly not the men. They get by with everything simply because they are Muslim. Obama's response to this? "Pray for me." That's right, Obama asked the Imam to pray for him, in the name of Allah, of course.
Obama also said that, "everyday when he wakes up, he always does his best to put an end to oppression and conflicts affecting communities." He must mean in Muslim countries, because he is the one doing the "oppressing" here at home in America. The Imam stated that Obama frequently replied with "InsyAllah", which is Malaysian for "Allah willing" and "terima kasih" which means "thank you".
And don't think it went unnoticed, even by the Malaysian's that it is very uncommon for the leader of a superpower to include a visit to a mosque on their trips.
Malaysia’s Star newspaper quoted Abdullah Muhammad Zin, religious advisor to Prime Minister Najib Razak, as saying it was “not common” for the leader of a superpower to include a visit to a mosque in his itinerary.
“There can be no better way for Obama to honor Islam than by visiting Masjid Negara,” he said.
Bernama quoted several other senior Muslim figures commenting on the visit.
“This is out of the ordinary as I cannot recall any non-Muslim world leader visiting the National Mosque and this is a good start for Muslims here,” said Ustaz Wan Akashah Wan Abdul Hamid, a religious scholar.
The news agency also cited a former National Mosque imam, Hassan Mahmood Al-Hafiz, as saying that “the willingness of the world leader to set foot on the Islamic landmark was a good omen, more so when Muslims were being wrongly linked to violence.” CSM
Later in the afternoon, Obama addressed students at the University of Malaya where he spoke about religious and ethnic diversity and tolerance.
“Here in Malaysia, this is a majority Muslim country. So then, there are times where those who are non-Muslims find themselves perhaps being disadvantaged or experiencing hostility,” he said.“In the United States, obviously historically the biggest conflicts arose around race. And we had to fight a civil war and we had to have a civil rights movement over the course of generations until I could stand before you as a president of African descent.
“But of course, the job is not done,” Obama continued. “There is still discrimination and prejudice and ethnic conflict inside the United States that we have to be vigilant against. So my point is all of us have within us biases and prejudices of people who are not like us or were not raised in the same faith or come from a different ethnic background.”
“Malaysia won’t succeed if non-Muslims don’t have opportunity,” he said. “You should be proud of who you are and your background. And you should appreciate the differences in language and food. And how you worship God is going to be different, and those are things that you should be proud of. But it shouldn’t be a tool to look down on somebody else. It shouldn’t be a reason to discriminate.”
Go ahead, lefties, tell us all once more how Obama is not a Muslim. And then show me proof of your claim because for every lie you try to present as fact, I will give you 20 facts that your blind eyes refuse to see.
Imagine if Romney was on record of saying the same quote only with the word Muslims replaced by Mormons. How well do you think that would go over? Do you think that that would have been largely ignored? I hope that somehow people will finally recognize Obama and the MSM for what they really are.
ReplyDeleteI don't think it is ever going to happen. If you don't recognize what he is by now it is because you don't want to.
DeleteNeil, the left would be in a coma over such a thing. Their heads would collectively explode to such a degree that they would be left in a rage induced coma. And I think a good number of people recognize who and what he is, but what they can't seem to do is admit it. Doing so would mean admitting that they were either wrong or that they knew all along and deliberately lied to cover it up.
Delete"InsyAllah", which is Malaysian for "Allah willing"
ReplyDeleteNope! "Inshallah" is Arabic, not Malaysian.
While "Inshallah" is Arabic, I was quoting from the Malay Imam who said "Insyallah". Perhaps that is their own take on the word since they are not Arabic, but Malaysian. Different countries and their different words..... Do you know what the universal translation is? MUSLIM!
DeleteI remember during the election, I went to another message board where people were mocking Romney for being a Mormon. One of the common insults was making polygamy jokes at the expense of Romney. When I pointed out that Romney had been married to ONE woman for decades and that their boy Obama's father was an ACTUAL bigamist you could hear crickets. The hypocrisy of the left has no bounds.

Funny how the darkness of their lies cannot seem to stand up to the light of truth.....Sad how they will never figure that out...
