New York Post Column Raises Serious Obama Questions

Los Angeles Times Cover Up

As the polls tighten nationwide and in swing states there is increased speculation that undecided voters are swinging to McCain. Dick Morris speculates on his website and email newsletter that Obama may not reach half of the votes cast, and that undecided voters are moving toward McCain. Polls in Pennsylvania confirm Morris’ opinion.

Iranian-born commentator , whose column in Tuesday’s New York Post said that many Arabs and other Muslims see Obama as “one of them,” according an article on Newsmax.com. They see that Obama has Arabic-Islamic first and middle names: Barack means “blessed” and Hussein means “beautiful.” His last name is Swahili, an East African language based on Arabic, Taheri writes. His sister is named Oumah, Arabic for “the community of the faithful;” his daughter Malia bears the name of a daughter of the noted Caliph Othman; and his father and stepfather were both Muslims.

Newsmax.com also point out that Obama was raised partially as a Muslim when he lived in Indonesia with his mother and stepfather. While there, he studied at two schools and was registered at both as a Muslim student.

As such he received Islamic religious instruction, studied the Koran, and prayed with other students. He did attend mosque, albeit infrequently, with his stepfather.

From about age 10 to his late 20s religion apparently much in his life Then Obama says he converted to Christianity after meeting the Rev. Jeremiah Wright in Chicago.

Obama has maintained strong support from American Muslims, including Louis Farrakhan’s Nation of Islam movement. Farrakhan has endorsed Obama and has called him the “messiah.”

These factors have made Obama a big hit in the Arab world, where he has received wide praise, including:

· The Syrian regime an arch-enemy of Israel has indicated its preference for Obama. Buthaina Shaaban, an adviser to President Bashar al-Assad, has written: “The change suggested by Obama is essential not only for the U.S. but for the entire human family.”

· Anti-American Libyan leader Muammar al-Qaddafi called Obama “a Muslim” and said: “All the people in the Arab and Muslim world and in Africa applauded this man. They welcome him and prayed for his success,” although Qaddafi also expressed criticism of Obama’s comments on the future of Jerusalem.

· Hamas political adviser Ahmed Yousef said this year: “We like Mr. Obama and we hope that he will win the election.”

· Hezbollah’s second in command, Sheik Naim al-Kassim, urged Americans to vote for Obama as a step toward peace with Islam, and pro-Hezbollah columnist Amal Saad-Ghorayeb said there is “no doubt Arabs should welcome an Obama presidency,” according to Taheri.

· In Saudi Arabia, commentator Hussein Shobokshi wrote that an Obama presidency “would mark an important moral transformation in the superpower and is a healthy indicator of the long-awaited improvement in the international arena.”

Some columnists also have noted Obama’s close ties to several Palestinian radicals, including Columbia University Prof. Rashid Khalidi — former communications director for the Palestinian Liberation Organization — and another Palestinian political activist, the late Edward Said. Obama attended a party for Khalidi that included anti-Semitic tirrades. Obama is seen on a videotape toasting Khalidi and gave a glowing testimony to Khalidi. Khalidi says he objects to the murder of civilians but not on Jewish targets.

Former Weatherman terrorist Bill Ayers and his wife are believed to have attended the gathering for Khalidi.

The LA Times is covering up a videotape made at the event and will not release it because it is damning to Obama.

The “Arab street” also favors Obama. Recent surveys found that he is the preferred candidate in Egypt, Jordan, Morocco, Algeria, Syria, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates.
