PARIS (Reuters) - Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama told a French magazine in an interview that if he wins office, he will hold a summit with Muslim countries to better the United States' image in the world.
"Once I'm elected, I want to organize a summit in the Muslim world, with all the heads of state, to have an honest discussion about ways to bridge the gap that grows every day between Muslims and the West," Thursday's edition of Paris Match quoted Obama as saying,

Isn’t there another candidate who wants a meeting, an alliance, with “moderate muslim countries”? Can’t think of the name right now.
To: dynachrome
Of course he will.
This man needs to be defeated.

I wonder which of the three choices offered by Islam that he will agree to?
Conversion
(humiliating*) Subjugation
Death
*The Koran and Islamic scholars all state vehemently that those who chose to pay the “jizya” must do so in the most humiliating manner possible.

Here is my quickie, rough translation of part of the original Paris Match interview:
Barack Obama: "I want to dialogue directly with Iran and Syria. We will not stabilize the area if we do not speak to our enemies.."
How will you begin to improve the image of the United States in the world? Barack Obama. It is necessary to end the war in Iraq. Occupying this country puts us in opposition to the entire world. Similarly, it is necessary to close Guantanamo and offer the prisoners there a legal framework in which they can be judged.
I also want, once elected, to organize a meeting in the Muslim world, with all the Heads of State, to discuss frankly how to bridge the divide between Islam and the West, which becomes greater every day. I want to ask them to join our anti-terrorism efforts. We must also listen to their concerns.
I also want us to take the lead in fields like climate change, which the Bush administration has neglected for so long, and which worries the world. If we show that we are in the forefront of climatic change and nuclear non-proliferation, then we will receive in exchange greater co-operation in the areas which concern us....
How do you plan to get out of Iraq? Barak Obama: I would begin withdrawing our troops as quickly as possible, at the rate of one or two brigades per month. That would enable us to leave Iraq about 2009. This would send a signal to the Iraqis that we will not remain forever....

I sometimes wonder why in the heck we are forced to study history in school! The excuse “otherwise we are doomed to repeat it,” is meaningless because our leaders keep repeating it regardless of having a infinite knowledge of history.

They all do - Every politician, every phoney baloney religious leader, much of the media etc is calling for and involved in and with an Alliance of Civilizations. They’ve all gotten their marching orders from the top and are in complete compliance with, they are all on the same universalistic, globalist, religious page - Be sure of it. They are all suffering great delusions that there will be world peace. It ain’t gonna happen.
