Wow that was an extreme statement you just made. Why does this hit your emotional chord hmmm? Have you an investment in this? When someone criticizes or questions you come out swinging. Slow down with the punches and show some tolerance you want others to have, or should we say that is for others!

Couple of things...1st no where in his speech does he say he is Muslim or that his father was Muslim, simply stated he has Muslim family members from his fathers side, check your own quote, finemanm. 2ndly, I'm not one too throw someone I don't know under a bus, but you kind of sound like your lumping all Muslims into a single gigantic group of extremist, I hope you are smart enough to know they are not all terrorist, 1% or so are crazy, but no more crazy in my eyes than the Sunday Morning Evangelicals who talk craziness about the world only being 5000 years old, or the Mormons who think Eden is in Missouri. Or God put Dinosaur bones on Earth to test or faith or a laundry list of other American Religious movements that have taken hold. Basically, all I took from your multiple posting rant is your not okay at all with anything that's not Christian or American. Buddy you need to really stop for a minute and reel yourself back in from the point of no return. I have never seen so many people rush to point out their hate and bigotry like some of you on here, it actually surprises me, I don't know why...

We can't keep going around the world telling everybody else what to do and how to go about that. Who are Americans to tell anyone what to think or say. You sound like a Fascist, you realize. Americans have developed a sense of entitlement that the rest of the world is bent on taking away. We can either conform to the changes needed for a safer and more tolerant world. Or we are doomed to be hated and loathed by the world at large. Personally I just want my kids to live in a world where they have choice and freedom of mind and free will.

I have no problem with snubbing the "Israelis" we have been kissing their butts far too long.

But as usual the speech is nothing but political garbage to make the public happy and the middle east happy.

I Also noticed that Obama is a "Christian" when he is in the US and turns into a "Muslin" when he is in the middle east, I wonder what he will be when he goes to India and China.

I guess is call diversification.

Origin of the Word Algebra
The word algebra is a Latin variant of the Arabic word al-jabr. This came from the title of a book, Hidab al-jabr wal-muqubala, written in Baghdad about 825 A.D. by the Arab mathematician Mohammed ibn-Musa al-Khowarizmi.

The Saudi flag is not a symbol of Islam, although the 'shahada' is included per the Saudi population being 100% Islam. Form of association really, between culture and religion. The two swords with a tree in the middle is a symbol of culture. The curved sword is a form of art. I fail to see both; the relevance to this topic, and the point you were attempting to make.

Now I really shouldn't have to educate anyone but we don't need this

constant religious bias on every single thread I read about Obama.

Since everyone is shooting down Islam/Muslims, how about a quick history

lesson on the start of the new world after the fall of the romans. The

roman dictator Constantine embraced Christianity on his deathbed and

instated it into Roman law upon his death. At first the newly founded

Christian religion was tolerant of other religions then they turned south

and started to systematically kill and burn anything to do with the old ways

of Pagan Symbolism. With this the world lost years (ruffly 2000) of

scientific progress, a world that was known to be round since ancient

Alexandria was now thought to be flat, women no longer had a place when

put next to a man, and anything scientific was thought To be magic or

witchcraft. If anything what Obama said is quite true, the Muslims may not

have invented many of these new forms of math and scientific devices.

BUT IT WAS THE MUSLIMS THAT SALVAGED MANY MANY MANY PAGAN

WORKS AND KEPT THEM AND MADE COPIES, THEREFOR GIVING THE

MUSLIM WORLD CREDIT FOR ALOT OF WORKS THAT WERENT THEIR

OWN. THE CHRISTIANS ON THE OTHER HAND SOUGHT OUT TO BURN

AND COMPLETELY DESTROY ANYTHING PAGAN AND DID A DAMN FINE

JOB OF SETTING US BACK A HECK OF A LONG TIME. THE STUPIDER THE

PEOPLE ARE THE EASIER THEY ARE TO CONTROL, SIMPLY PUT. IN

CONCLUSION WITHOUT THE MUSLIM WORLD OUR WORLD AS WE KNOW

IT WOULD STILL BE LEFT IN THE DARK AGES THINKING THAT FIRE WAS

THE ONLY WAY TO MAKE LIGHT. Thank you christianity I would know alot

less with you.


P.S. ANCIENT BABYLON WAS LOCATED SOUTH OF BAGHDAD I'D SAY THATS PRETTY MUCH THE MUSLIM REGION WOULDNT YOU. AND SINCE THE MUSLIMS SALVAGED ALL OF THE PAGAN SCIENTIFIC WORKS WE WOULDN'T BE ANYWHERE WITHOUT THEM. IT IS THE RELIGIOUS BIAS OF CHRISTIANITY THAT MAKES THE WORLD THINK THAT MUSLIMS SIMPLY PILAGED, RAPED, AND BURNED ALL IN THEIR PATH, THEY WERE ACTUALLY THE SAVIORS OF MODERN SCIENCE AND MATHMATICS.

MY TWO CENTS TO THIS BIAS POPULATION. GREAT SPEECH PRESIDENT OBAMA, GREAT SPEECH. ALSO THANK YOU MUSLIM WORLD.

this is coming from a hindu agnostic ....

another stupid christian zionist thread based on bashing Islam . level of american stupidity , people can write such BS for trying to cover up for the genocide that USA has waged in ME , its disgusting

despite the fact that the satanist-jewish zionist NWO is screwing Christians and muslims and trying to inflame t hem against each other , most people are still in 'lalala' land , believed propaganda like a sheeple

looking at the kind of things americans preach , the russians use the right term for americans : 'yankistani goyim '

, when the jews and their NWO bring a communist revolution to USA , only then will the Americans awaken to see their real enemy

Some points which I disagree with OP on:

1. You misinterpret. Obama said his "father came from a Kenyan family that includes generations of Muslims". This does not mean that Obama Sr was Muslim but in fact came from a family which for generations are Muslim. In fact he was born Muslim but he became an atheist by choice prior to entering the United States. Oddly enough. Obama Sr's own father was a Roman Catholic who converted to Islam.
source:
en.wikipedia.org...

2. Yes so he fluffed up the Arabs a bit, made them feel good. Why not? Anyway you might say its implicit in the wordings, however at no point did he say the Arabs were the sole inventors or founders of those technologies to the exclusion of every other culture. Anyway my belief is that technologies often times spring up together across different cultures at the same time.

3. About Obama blaming the previous administration, are you advocating we do not call a duck, a duck but lie about it? Anyway where is the jab at the Bush administration? The only jab you see are the ones you are imagining.

4. About the Israel Palestinian situation: You advocate not dwelling on the past in the above point & yet this does not seem to apply to Palestinian's past. Stick to one stance please otherwise its seems a bit hypocritical when you start choosing when to use the past as a way to support your argument.

Gonna end off here first as I'm running out of time. Rest of your post is really seeing things where there isn't any. I don't understand why you would say things like "Muslim will never accept Israel". That sounds like a hate rant & is just presumptuous.

You are, what we say locally, picking bones from an egg.
