Obama Poses with Controversial Separatist Leader

The White House is facing questions after a photograph surfaced of President Barack Obama smiling next to the leader of an authoritarian separatist group known for its past terrorism and what experts dubbed egregious human rights violations.

The controversial photo in question appears to capture a smiling President Obama standing next to Mohamed Abdelaziz, the leader of the Polisario Front, a Moroccan separatist group in Algeria that commits massive human rights infractions and has been cited as a “prime recruiting grounds for al Qaeda.”

The picture was supposedly snapped at last week’s Nelson Mandela memorial ceremony in Johannesburg and then featured on an Arab language news website, which dubbed the encounter as “the first official meeting between the Polisario and the U.S. president.”

Bird of a feather.....too bad the lousiest media on the planet managed to miss candid photos of the Poseur with his Marxist and Muslim friends for two election cycles. Even Jim Jones didn’t have cult members this dedicated.

Let’s not forget that Morocco was the first country to recognize the United States back in 1777.

The title could easily swap the word “Obama” with “Abdelaziz”.

Posing with people doesn’t matter to me.

How they work in each other’s interest does matter.

Mohamed Abdelaziz, the leader of the Polisario Front, a Moroccan separatist group in Algeria

This is very ambiguously worded.

A casual reader could come away with the impression that the Polisario Front is a group of Moroccans in Algeria who want to separate from Algeria.

In reality, the Polisario Front is an anti-Moroccan group that is supported by the Algerian government, and which wants to create a separate anti-Western state in the Maghreb.

Oh look. Obama posing with someone who hates America (again).

I'm old enough to remember a President who DIDN'T hate America with every fiber of his being.

He’s not a “separatist leader”; he’s a terrorist - and, yes, Obama loves ‘em all for assisting with the destruction of the United States.

The Moroccan Muslim terrorist comes off as even more radical and anti- American for being seen enjoying the company of someone even more islamoNazi- terroristic -supporting, on a far wider scale, than himself.

yes but is not quite as much that he hates ‘honkies’ as he hates Americans, Christians, Jews, Brits, Israelis, people who affirm the Western Judeo-Christian tradition of liberty, and probably most other non-Islamacist peoples

(which, when you add it all up, pretty much results in him hating ‘honkies” ... I get your point now! thanks)
