Obama likes to mock and troll.
Ed Morisey of HOTAIR observes:
In Kenya last week, almost 150 Christians got slaughtered in an al-Shabaab terrorist attack, deliberately chosen by the terrorists for murder, but nowhere in Obamas official statement on that atrocity can one find a mention of their religion. Neither can one find in the statement any mention of the less than loving expressions of Islam. Two months ago, when a group linked to ISIS butchered 21 Christians from Egypt specifically for their religion, the White House statement on that mass murder not only didnt mention either religion, it emphasized that ISIS attacks were unconstrained by faith, sect, or ethnicity. Riiiiiiight.
Furthermore, Obama seems very unconcerned when it comes to less-than-loving expressions from his negotiating partners. Recall this moment from his NPR interview, conducted the day after this prayer? Obama seems less-than-concerned about the virulent anti-Semitism of the Iranian mullahs, whom he wants to trust to adhere to a deal which would keep them from threatening millions of Jews in Israel
