Hat tip Coptic Solidarity
The below article in Coptic Solidarity puts the blame for the violence against Coptic Christians in Egypt right squarely where it belongs: On the Muslim Brotherhood.

Yet, the Obama administration continues to support the Brotherhood. Just this week, aid has been cut to Egypt in the face of the crackdown against MB. What Obama and John Kerry want is clear: They want the Brotherhood back in the game. They want Mohammed Morsi out of jail. That our government could support the forces that are persecuting Christians, threatening the peace with Israel, demanding we release the Blind Sheikh, and trying to bring sharia law to Egypt seems inexplicable. Then again, how do you explain supporting al Qaeda-linked revels in Syria?
Since the MB has come to power the Copts have been subjected to an official pogrom. Why are we surprised that this behavior is still happening?
ReplyDeleteHmmmm! The POTUS was born to a Muslim father and raised by a Muslim stepfather. The first foreign speech he made was in Egypt, where he invited the outlawed MB. Last week, an Army chaplain is being punished by Army officials for conducting a Catholic Mass.

I asked a friend who speaks Arabic about the derivation of the name Barrack Obama.
ReplyDeleteHe wrote, "Barack is Swahili (via Arabic) for blessed or blessed one. There isn't anything in that word that directly corresponds to El, though in Muslim culture G-d is usually the source of blessing, so one could argue that it is implied. The roots in Hebrew and Arabic, in this case, are parallel. As far as I know, Obama is a purely Swahili name. Hope that helps."
Given the choice then, do you think he would support the Christian Copts or the Muslim Brotherhood?
This bias runs throughout his term of office and the list Squid provided only scratches the surface.
It will take decades to repair and root out Muslim predisposition he has imposed on the government.
.
And to him, the most beautiful sound in the world is, or at least was (maybe kinda like his stand on the debt ceiling, subject to change??) the Muslin call to prayer or whatever the proper term for it is.
ReplyDeleteAnd, as I have observed previously, his school records in Indonesia clearly indicate he was Muslim, at least then. He definitely visited Pakistan in 1981 when restrictions/bans on travel to there for U.S. citizens were in place, and I believe U.S. passports were not valid for such travel. It has been reported, although rarely, that he received financial assistance here in the U.S. as a "foreign student", although that could have been just plain ol' student loan fraud.
Smoke and fire, go figure.
You would think that true journalists would research school records, travel documents and such and then write columns about it. It just goes to show that the main stream media is in the tank for Obama and don't publish anything that "isn't helpful."
ReplyDeleteObama hasn't millions to seal all his records without reason.
Correction: That last sentence should have been, "Obama hasn't SPENT millions to seal all his records without reason."
ReplyDelete(BTW, those expenditures would also include those organizations that support him... NO MATTER WHAT)
Typo... my bad.

ReplyDeleteBarack in Hebrew means lightening.

ReplyDeleteYou could also take the Hebrew root of B, R, and CH as "Baruch" or blessed, the word that begins every Jewish prayer.
For those who are not familiar with this circumstance, the Hebrew language has relatively few words so many of them are connected or interrelated and ambiguous out of context to someone who does not know the language.
If you take the word "Chesed" which means holy, for example, with a minor change you get "Chaseed" or a holy person and then with further small changes you get the word for "good deeds"and then on to the word meaning "taking pity" and so on through many small changes to the three letter root.
Other languages with more words have more precise meanings to each word but there is more elasticity (if that is the word) when you have only so many to work with. Hebrew, probably more so than other languages, borrows and adopts words from other languages.
Another idiosyncrasy is that there are no curse words in the Hebrew language. When a Hebrew speaker curses, they use Arabic words.
True there are no curse words in Hebrew, but Yiddish is very colorful with them.
ReplyDeleteHas nobody told Findalis that the Muslim Brotherhood was REMOVED from power in Egypt some months ago?
