...This is not to say, necessarily, that Mr. Obama actually is a Muslim any more than Mr. Clinton actually is black. After five months in office, and especially after his just-concluded visit to Saudi Arabia and Egypt, however, a stunning conclusion seems increasingly plausible: The man now happy to have his Islamic-rooted middle name featured prominently has engaged in the most consequential bait-and-switch since Adolf Hitler duped Neville Chamberlain over Czechoslovakia at Munich.
...Obama's youth certainly suggests that he not only had a Kenyan father who was Muslim, but spent his early, formative years as one in Indonesia... "much has been made" -- in this case by him and his handlers -- of the fact that he became a Christian as an adult in Chicago, under the now-notorious Pastor Jeremiah A. Wright.
With Obama's unbelievably ballyhooed address in Cairo Thursday to what he calls "the Muslim world" there is mounting evidence that the president not only identifies with Muslims, but actually may still be one himself. Consider the following:
• Mr. Obama referred four times to "the Holy Koran." Non-Muslims -- even pandering ones -- generally don't use that Islamic formulation.
• Mr. Obama established his firsthand knowledge of Islam...with the statement, "I have known Islam on three continents before coming to the region where it was first revealed." Again, "revealed" is a depiction Muslims use to reflect their conviction that the Koran is the word of God, dictated to Mohammed.
• Then the president made a statement no believing Christian would ever make....the term "peace be upon them" is invoked by Muslims as a way of blessing deceased holy men. According to Islam, that is what all three were - dead prophets. Of course, for Christians, Jesus is the living and immortal Son of God....

I still don’t believe that Obama is a Muslim, but I do believe that he is comfortable with it because he was rasied around it. I DO believe that he is a radical socialist and for that reason, wants to destroy the world’s greatest capitalist state.
“Forgive them FATHER for they know not what they’ve done”
In his race obsessed autobigraphy the only Islam he alludes to with any real favor is that of the Black Muslims and then only for their racial fervor.
So is The One the false prophet or the true anti-Christ?
I have wondered if he went on a hajjj to Mecca and Medina when he went to Pakistan years ago on his Indonesian passport.
Absolutely, I watched that video recently and that is absolutely without a doubt what he meant.
Heartbreaking to those of us whose ancestors shed blood for this country whether thru wars or tilling the land.
Yes. He neither respects nor values their ideals and sacrifices. I also believe his most serious flaw is that he believes he is wiser than our Founding Fathers, and very little stands between him and his objectives.
Obama IS a Muslim according to Muslim belief. His father was a Muslim, his adoptive stepfather was a Muslim, his tribe and ancestors were all Muslims (and slave traders), and he was raised as a Muslim during his formative years.
I would agree that he also seems to have an affinity with Black Muslims, something that Arab Muslims would disagree about with him. But for the most part, the real Muslims have accepted the Black Muslims as a matter of convenience—they are useful allies in the jihad against the West. They can worry about converting or killing them later, after the West has been conquered.
Obama will be more and more open about this as time goes on. He won’t come out of the closet entirely, but he will make it clear enough to Muslims what he stands for. And political correctness will keep the lid on speaking about this among his leftist supporters here in the West.
I think that speech made it clear to the world, and especially Israel, just where he stands.
I believe he is.
Political correctness will doom us.
He isn't a prophet, false or otherwise, because a prophet is a spokesperson for a divinity. Obama has shown no deference to a power higher than himself and indeed behaves as though he is himself a/the messiah.
As to whether or not he is the antichrist, he certainly meets many of the fundamental criteria.
“In his race obsessed autobigraphy”...which he did not write.
I just know for sure he didnt grow up watching Gunsmoke, Leave it to Beaver, and Howdy Doody. He never was a boyscout or wore a Daniel Boone coonskin cap. He spent his childhood in a SE asian islamic nation, being raised by a communist mom, until she abandoned him.
Ill say it, wherever ho popped out of a woman, he ain’t an American by culture. THAT is why it’s nothing to him to dismantle the USA. It’s about as big of a stretch for him as it would be for me to rearrange Mexico.
Honestly, i feel very sorry for him. A kid born to an American should never have to live a childhood like that. In a foreign country like Indonesia, with islam on one hand, and communist mom and grandparents on the other.
I actually feel sad for him, but i don’t think he should be permitted to destroy America because of it. He is only a reflection of how much the left hates this country.
WOW,, i wonder if he did go on the Haj? Can you imagine? That story where the passport records were all tampered with for Obama, then Hillary, etc,,THAT is the key. I think it was a clean up of Obama, a few other records were opened as cover. (like a helo making 3 or 4 dummy landings so you dont know where the team was actually inserted for the mission)
Remember all the outrage? And it all sure died away, huh? They sure never pursued that very far. That alone tells you that it wasn’t us that did it.
Well written. I think you are probably right. And certainly right that Obama should NOT be president of the US.
