Charles Bolden, a retired United States Marines Corps major-general and former astronaut, said in an interview with al-Jazeera that Nasa was not only a space exploration agency but also an "Earth improvement agency".

Mr Bolden said: "When I became the Nasa administrator, he [Mr Obama] charged me with three things.

"One, he wanted me to help reinspire children to want to get into science and math; he wanted me to expand our international relationships; and third, and perhaps foremost, he wanted me to find a way to reach out to the Muslim world and engage much more with dominantly Muslim nations to help them feel good about their historic contribution to science, math, and engineering."

He added: "It is a matter of trying to reach out and get the best of all worlds, if you will, and there is much to be gained by drawing in the contributions that are possible from the Muslim [nations]."

I’d personally prefer to make Halle Berry feel good.

Russian media is protecting Obama, even put Bill Ayers, New Black Panthers on their Russian TV and spun them as victims.

All of them are STILL seeking a one-world communist government. Bill Ayers and the Panthers (old and new) were/are openly communist). And the Russian bear has only been hibernating awaiting the collapse of the US. Thanks to that scumbag rat Obama, their "new world order" has never looked more attainable.

Am I the only one who translates this mission directive to “we’ve got to get a delivery system into the hands of the Muslims who would destroy America”?
