"the muslims actually gave shelter to the jews when the christians were trying to kill them all off in europe during the middle ages"
What does this prove TBO?
Perhaps I should have better qualified my statement. This of course is not the only reason why the hostility exists today. For example, Quran teaches that it was Ishmael who Abraham almost sacrificed to the Lord, not Isaac (in contradiction to the Bible). This debate over who was the son of promise is also a a reason for the modern hostility. You can't, however just blow off every thing the Bible records as much of it is accepted and verified history, get it?
Anyway, Obama is incredibly ignorant (though it is almost admirable) on what he hopes to accomplish among these peoples. He will not bring peace, because he cant. I also found it interesting how while during his campaigning he distanced himself as far as he possibly could from anything Muslim (including never using his middle name) and now he appears to be trying to capitalize on his Muslim roots he inherited through his father. He even used his middle name, which was kind of funny.
- It could all be purely political, I get that part.designbot
