Barack Obama's half brother Malik said Thursday that if elected his brother will be a good president for the Jewish people, despite his Muslim background.
In an interview with Army Radio he expressed a special salutation from the Obamas of Kenya.
So his own brother admits Obama’s a Muslim. Interesting.
Well who are you going to believe, some website (stopthesmears) or Obama’s own brother.
Sure, just like Comrade Jimmah Carter is a good Jewish supporter....
It’s looks like the brother is going under the bus.
“He is not the brother I knew...”
darn...you beat me to it....LOL
“The half-brother of U.S. Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama, Malik Obama, told Army Radio on Thursday that Obama would make a good president for Jews.
Malik Obama, a Muslim who resides in a small village in western Kenya, also requested to send a special blessing to the Jewish people around the world from the Obama family in Kenya.
The Obama brothers’ father, a senior economist for the Kenyan government who studied at Harvard University, died in car crash in 1982. He left six sons and a daughter. All of his children - except Malik - live in Britain or the United States.
Barack Obama grew up in Hawaii with his American mother after his parents divorced and did not meet his brother Malik until 1985.”
“Malik, We Hardly Knew Ye”
Here’s a link to the broadcast:
Oh oh, there’s THAT word again.
Not there. Anybody have a link?
“So his own brother admits Obama’s a Muslim.”
That Obama is a Muslim has become irrelevant now. If one is willing to vote for a liberal anti-American democrat one can vote for a Muslim.
You can’t make this stuff up.....
I wish that I knew how to post in html.

It’s easier for Obama to say I’m was not born a Muslim than to say I was born a Muslim, but not that kind of Muslim and anyway I became the kind of Christian that supports the numero uno leader of the Black Muslim religion, the Violin toting Jew Hating smug loving calypso dancing Louis Farahkann.
He's not the first one who said he was going to help the Jews help themselves.
Liars.
Of course the Obamao will be a “good” president for the “jews”, he will pat the ol’ noggin the same way Iwannajihad did the Iranian Rabbi’s all the while denying the holocaust.
On this, I truly do not know what more can be said, Obama is the worst enemy of Israel to aspire to the White House since...well...he is #1...
Just another bullet riddled corpse that knew too much about Obama's past.
Obama is evil incarnate.
Sorry...no story here.
See the following (from 2004):
“It was in the United States, in 1985, that he (Malik) first met his 43-year-old half-brother Barack.”

If he only met him in 1985, there’s little way that this could confirm that Hussein grew up as a Muslim. There may be something else, but this ain’t it.
Well, the Democratic policy towards Muslim radicals is one of strict neutrality.
Deceit. What he thinks is good for the Jewish people is converting to Islam or going to the gas chambers. Hussein will do everything in his power to **** the Jews when and if he is in office.
“Sorry...no story here.”
Says who?
It is an oft-repeated assertion of Muslims that other faith-communities have always been treated with respect and dignity by in a genuine Islamic State. Indeed, as one peruses Islamic literature, this claim is noticeable for the frequency of its presence.
Allah says: "They pay the jizyah by hand in a condition of submission." [from Surah al-Tawbah: 29]
This is the verse that establishes the jizyah - a tax that is paid by non-Muslims who live as citizens in the Muslim state.
Non-Muslims live in the Muslim state as citizens under a contractual agreement (dhimmah) whereby they pay the jizyah, a fixed annual levy.
The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is an Islamic theocratic monarchy in which Islam is the official religion; the law requires that all Saudi citizens be Muslims. Religious freedom is virtually non-existent. The Saudi Mutaween (Arabic: ??????), or Committee for the Propagation of Virtue and the Prevention of Vice (i.e., the religious police), enforces the prohibition on the public practice of non-Muslim religions. The Government claims to recognize the right of non-Muslims to worship in private; it does not always respect this right in practice.[2]
Many other sources confirm Obama has a Muslim background, went to Koranic schools, and even speaks a little Arabic.
Obama has been remarkably reticent to outline that background.
For more on this, see these two articles by Melanie Phillips:

Look...when this stuff comes out, it needs to come out one time with unimpeachable sources. One source that can be controverted, even with a 2004 story from USA Today, can discredit any GOOD information that comes out.
Just like the Certification of Birth thing...unless there is an unimpeachable source, it'll be refuted.
If the MSM were our friends, that would be one thing. But they aren't. That's just the way it is.
I don't doubt he's a Muslim (though I really think he is an elitest atheist who is using the popular form of faith to attract the masses...but that's another story altogether). None the less, here's the point: When this stuff comes out, it needs to come out one time with unimpeachable sources. One source that can be controverted, even with a 2004 story from USA Today, can discredit any GOOD information that comes out.
Just like the Certification of Birth thing...unless there is an unimpeachable source, it'll be refuted.
If the MSM were our friends, that would be one thing. But they aren't. That's just the way it is. It has to be a standard that will convince one who is inclined to believe Hussein's bilge...otherwise it's only preaching to the choir...which does no good whatsoever.
It may be so about that half-brother Malik Barack, but his other brother Abongo (Roy) Obama opted for Islam over Christianity, as Obama recounted when describing his (brother's)1992 wedding. " The person who made me proudest of all," Obama wrote, "was Roy. Actually, now we call him Abongo, his Luo name, for two years ago he decided to reassert his African heritage. He converted to Islam, and has sworn off pork and tobacco and alcohol." " Abongo (Roy) Obama inherited their father's hard-drinking ways but straightened his life out by embracing Islam and his African heritage." Abongo "Roy" Obama is a Luo activist and a militant Muslim who argues that the black man must "liberate himself from the poisoning influences of European culture." He urges his younger brother to embrace his African heritage. http://www.theobamafile.com/ObamaFamily.htm
For an “unimpeachable source,” how about Obama’s own mouth in a very friendly article by Nicolas Kristof of the NYT:
“I was a little Jakarta street kid,” he said in a wide-ranging interview in his office (excerpts are on my blog, www.nytimes.com/ontheground). He once got in trouble for making faces during Koran study classes in his elementary school, but a president is less likely to stereotype Muslims as fanatics — and more likely to be aware of their nationalism — if he once studied the Koran with them.
Mr. Obama recalled the opening lines of the Arabic call to prayer, reciting them with a first-rate accent. In a remark that seemed delightfully uncalculated (it’ll give Alabama voters heart attacks), Mr. Obama described the call to prayer as “one of the prettiest sounds on Earth at sunset.”
Moreover, Mr. Obama’s own grandfather in Kenya was a Muslim. Mr. Obama never met his grandfather and says he isn’t sure if his grandfather’s two wives were simultaneous or consecutive, or even if he was Sunni or Shiite. (O.K., maybe Mr. Obama should just give up on Alabama.)”
Maybe you should examine the evidence a little more closely. A good place to start would be the two Melanie Phillips article I linked to earlier.
