<b>Obama's Muslim comment sparks row</b>
Washington Times
United States President Barack Obama [ Images ] has sparked a row with his assertion that the US is one of the world's biggest Muslim countries.
"If you actually took the number of Muslim Americans, we would be one of the largest Muslim countries in the world," Obama told French television station Canal Plus on Monday, as he prepared for his landmark five-day trip to Egypt [ Images ] and Saudi Arabia, in an effort to bridge the chasm between America and the Islamic world.
Michael Rubin, a scholar at the US think tank American Enterprise Institute, said the statement is incorrect and using such language is a 'dangerous gambit'.
"All politicians pander. Obama is raising it to a global level," he said.
"First of all, it's false: Even if you take the inflated numbers that Islamic advocacy organisations claim, Muslims are a tiny, tiny minority in the United States," he underlined.
"Obama should also not fall into the extremist's trap of using Muslim as a unitary adjective. There is no more a Muslim world than a Christian world," he was quoted as saying by the Washington Times newspaper today.
Though there is no US census on the basis of religion, several unofficial estimates put the Muslim-American population at roughly five million, which would rank the country at about 35th among 150 countries with Muslim populations, the report said.
Steve Grand, a Brookings fellow and director of its 'Project on US Relations with the Islamic World', acknowledged that the population number is hard to pin down. He said the estimate of two to six million Muslims in the US is close to the number of Muslims in Jordan.
"I think the statement was really an effort to hold up the Muslin-American nation in which Islam and Democracy are not incompatible, Islam and prosperity are not incompatible," Grand said.
Jim Phillips, an analyst at the Heritage Foundation, said he was surprised by Obama's comment because the US only has between three to five million Muslims.
"And that is far from the largest Muslim country -- Indonesia," he said, "It reminds me of his campaign statement that he had been to 57 states. I think that he needs to cut back on his work schedule and get some rest," Phillips, a research fellow at the Foundation was quoted as saying.
His comments have also re-ignited the debate about his Muslim roots. Obama, whose middle name is Hussein, is a Christian whose childhood included spending time in Indonesia and whose stepfather and Kenyan father were Muslims.
Rubin said the problem with Obama's statement is that he not only declines to put American values at the forefront of US foreign policy, but refuses to even identify them. "Rather than talk about the United States as a Muslim country, perhaps he should talk about the United States as a country which has thrived because of a separation of church and state and an adherence to a constitution," he argued.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
People are confusing and worrying themselves unnecessarily. Obama is merely predicting the future:

After all, Obama <i>can</i> count (something his predecessor wouldn't know anything about...). Obama would know America does not at present have one of the largest islamic populations. But he also knows that the number of islamaniacs there are in America at the moment (and planning numerical jihad) is sufficient to make the demographics of the US a very populous islamic nation in future.

cap, rollback and eliminate: obama's india ambassador nomination
http://www.newmajority.com/ShowScroll.aspx...27-3d81abc34dde
of course - after the Buffalo-not-Bangalore bit; he is now pushing a non-proliferation ayatollah to culminate MMS's deal-making. this Obama blighter is an absolute disaster for India - never mind his legion of fans in the Indian media and mullah circuit. where are the Obamanics of this blog?
interesting also to see in his Cairo speech that he supports veil wearing Muslim women - of course his own wife keeps to the "bear-arms" philosophy. quite haraam - that practice - no? i am waiting for his visit to India (if he ever deigns to visit at all). wonder if he will be prepared to meet Taslima Nasreen

Obamaâs appointment of Indiana Representative Timothy Roemer as ambassador to India is another troubling sign of this administration's attitude towards its important and critical ally.
Ambassadorships are often key signaling devices. Two weeks ago, for example, President Obama gave China Jon Huntsman as ambassador. In addition to being a rising Republican star, Huntsman is a proficient Mandarin speaker. He has lived and worked in East Asia and has an adopted Chinese daughter. Additionally, he served as Ambassador to Singapore in the early 1990s. Huntsmanâs nomination is a clear sign to the Chinese that the United States is committed to strengthening ties. At the press conference announcing his nomination, President Obama noted that: âThis ambassadorship is as important as any in the world.â
What then to make of the appointment of Tim Roemer? While China receives a potential future president in Huntsman, India receives in Tim Roemer a six-term Indiana representative who has little connection with the region.Â
With the opening of the Indian economy in the early 1990s, and increasing military ties, India has emerged as one of the United Statesâ most important strategic partners in the 21st century. The United States is now Indiaâs largest trading partner and also the largest source of direct foreign investment. Both nationsâ navies have conducted joint exercises, and in the aftermath of the Mumbai attacks there has been a renewed effort at intelligence sharing and coordination. The Indian military has turned to American suppliers after many years of relying on Soviet and Russian military technology. The passage of the civilian nuclear agreement in Congress allows for India to purchase nuclear technology from the United States. The appointment of a former Congressman with little involvement in the region does nothing to highlight the importance of this growing relationship.
Roemer does have an interest in national security and foreign affairs: he has worked on non-proliferation issues and serves on the bipartisan committee on the Prevention of Weapons of Mass Destruction. Yet such work suggests he might have been better employed with an appointment to Pakistan, a nation with questions about the security of their nuclear arsenal.
The appointment of Roemer is just the latest in a series of steps which suggest that the Obama administration does not fully appreciate America's relationship with India. At the G-20 summit in April, Obama raised eyebrows in India with his remark that the tax code should be rewritten to limit outsourcing: âItâs a tax code that says you should pay lower taxes if you create a job in Bangalore, India than if you create one in Buffalo, New York.â And during her first overseas trip as Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton traveled to Asia, but did not include a stop in India.
Most troubling though are the attempts by the Obama administration to link the dispute over Kashmir to the growing turmoil in Pakistan. During the campaign, Obama suggested that the US might play a more active role in brokering a resolution to the conflict. The Obama administration believes that resolving the Kashmir dispute will both help the Pakistani government earn the support of their people and allow the Pakistani military to redirect their armed forces against the ever-growing Islamic insurgency in their country. New Delhi immediately dismissed the idea, but it will be interesting to see if Roemer once again pushes for an American-mediated settlement. While promoting stability in Pakistan is important, if Obama and Roemer deal with India by asking: âWhatâs best for Pakistan?â they may alienate an even more important long-term strategic ally.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Well, when AmeriKKKa gives itself to islamism (see also Obama in 1 above), we will for a brief moment consider alternatives to the Kashmir issue (after which we still say No).
"Convert or die AmeriKKKa. Islam is coming." It's called jihad. And if they encourage it elsewhere, it will come and get them sooner.
