Barack
Obama’s hatred* of Winston Churchill stems from how Churchill portrayed Muslims
in the book The River War written in
1899. One could come to this conclusion
because of the overwhelming support for all things Islam (especially the Sunni
sect) by Mr. Obama, and the apologetic disdain of all things American or
British. An excerpt from The River War describes Churchill
observances:
How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism
lays on its votaries! Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a
man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is this
fearful fatalistic apathy. The effects are apparent in many countries.
Improvident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture, sluggish methods of
commerce, and insecurity of property exist wherever the followers of the
Prophet rule or live. A degraded sensualism deprives this life of its grace and
refinement; the next of its dignity and sanctity. The fact that in Mohammedan
law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property –
either as a child, a wife, or a concubine – must delay the final extinction of
slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men.
Thousands become the brave and loyal soldiers of the Queen: all know how to
die: but the influence of the religion paralyses the social development of
those who follow it. No stronger retrograde force exists in the world. Far from
being moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant and proselytizing faith. It has
already spread throughout Central Africa, raising fearless warriors at every
step; and were it not that Christianity is sheltered in the strong arms of
science, the science against which it had vainly struggled, the civilisation of
modern Europe might fall, as fell the civilisation of ancient Rome.
Obviously
Obama disapproved of what he thought a grave degradation of Islam even though
the depiction in the eyes of a westerner would agree with Churchill’s
assessment (to expound further on this point would have to wait another
time…suffice it to say that a child reared in the Islamic culture is polar
opposite of one reared in the Judeo-Christian west). The renunciation of the above description
angered Obama sufficiently enough that he sent back to the British Embassy a
gift (a bust of Sir Winston Churchill) which was on loan to the White House
since 2001. Even though the media
learned of this insult to the British, Obama denied that it ever happened. Only when the British Ambassador confirmed
the return did the White House (Obama) retract the lie.
Well
it was not only Churchill who described the mid-easterners as less than
human. In an interview with Ukrainian
born (also an American citizen) Prime Minister of Israel, Golda Meir, in 1972
she was asked, “What do you think of
this war and the men who are conducting it?
Of Arafat, for instance, of Habash, of the Black September leaders?” Meir replies,
“I simply think
they're not men. I don't even consider them human beings, and the worst thing
you can say of a man is that he's not a human being. It's like saying he's an
animal, isn't it? But how can you call what they're doing "a war"? Don't you remember what Habash said when he
had a bus full of Israeli children blown up? "It's best to kill the Israelis
while they're still children." Come on, what they're doing isn’t a war.
It's not even a avant-garde movement because a movement that only wants to kill
can't be called revolutionary.”
So if the worst thing you can say of a Muslim that
he’s not a human being; by deductive reasoning Meir would not be in good
standing with Obama. But what if a
Muslim leader agreed with the west’s conception of Islam…in fact this Muslim
leader was quite emphatic when he said the following:
“Today we are the
poorest, the most illiterate, the most backward, the un-healthiest, the most
un-enlightened, the most deprived, and the weakest of the entire human race.”
Wow! Strong
straight forward observations from a leader who obviously was educated
independently of Islam with the ability recognize the difference between
civility and cultural backwardness. Back
in 2002 Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf said that Islamic countries will
remain backward unless they concentrate more on scientific and technological
development. He also added, “Muslim
nations are internally involved in fratricidal conflicts (i.e. Sunni vs Shiite)
and perceived by the outside world as terrorists with little attention given on
their uplift.”
Obama was not living in the White House in 2002 but
like an elephant he never forgets. Only 3
days into his presidency Obama launches a devastating drone attack on Pakistan killing
up to ten people. Now five years later
the drone attacks continue and the cumulative total of 2,400 including
civilians are counted among the dead.
Former President Bush said, “Don’t mess with Texas.”…he should have
said, “Don’t mess with Obama.”
By the way…none of this was reported on your 6 o’clock
news by the main stream media and neither was the Churchill fiasco even when the bust was returned toWashington…not to the White House, but to the U.S. Capitol Building under a
ceremonial cloud. ~ Norman E. Hooben
