Al-Qaeda Spokesman Adam Gadahn: Obama’s Islamic Outreach a Bald-Faced Lie (Video)
Posted by Jim Hoft on Sunday, September 16, 2012, 10:34 PM
American Al-Qaeda Operative Adam Gadahn released a video for the anniversary of the 9-11 attacks.
Gadahn slammed Barack Obama over his failed Muslim outreach.
MEMRI reported:
Red Alert Politics reported:
Al-Qaida’s American-born spokesman Adam Gadahn has a message for President Obama; his outreach to Muslims has failed and that he is liar if he says America is not at war with Islam.
President Obama famously stood at Egypt’s Al-Azar University in June 2009 and told Muslims that there should be a “new beginning between the United States and Muslims” and that there should be a “spirit of tolerance and compromise.”
But Gadahn, the only American indicted for treason in the past 50 years, had words of warning for the President in a video released by al-Qaida this past week – recognize its strict interpretation of sharia (Islamic law).
“It is clear that Obama is trying to pull our leg here,” Gadahn, aka ‘Azzām al-Amrīki, said in the video addressing Obama’s comments in the same speech that America is not and never will be at war with Islam. “Even if we say that America isn’t at war with Islam, does it mean that Muslims shouldn’t be fighting America? No.
“In Islam I am not required to ask you, ‘Are you attacking me because of my religion or because you want my oil wealth?”
The President spent a good part of his Cairo speech encouraging Muslims to adopt or accept secular values, which the Islamic fundamentalists such as those in al-Qaida and the Muslim Brotherhood reject as being antithetical to Islam.
The transcript of Gadahn’s speech is here.

I agree with him, we are at war with islam. Unfortunately we are losing, as long as we fight with one arm tied behind our backs. If we ever decide to let loose the dogs of war even allah wont be able to help the jihadi”s.

Hasn’t Obama ordered a drone strike on this guy already?

Wow! I get to be the first to post, “If Obama had a son,….”

Well, we have freedom of speech. These killings and unrest are coming for the Muslims and others who want to head the government of Syria and Libya. There is an internal war for power. Obama believes that Muslims deserve the same respect as other religions, yet he and Sebilus are working to make sure the Catholic Church distributes contraception to their employee through Affordable Health Care Act.
Now, Obama has gone way way out of his way for the Muslimbrotherhood. Sent money in fact our money to the Middle East. I know that Obama is a Muslim and that he feels for whatever reason they deserve to be accommodated and then their will be peace. But who knows for sure what his true intentions lie.
Here is what Obama doesn’t want Hannity to show.

(VIDEO) Obama Puts Heat on Fox News to Prevent Sean Hannity from airing this piece.
*This is a video that Sean Hannity of FOX News has been trying to show that we are told has consistently been blocked by the Obama Administration for several weeks. It was a matter of time until the internet picked it up.*
Fox News has been blocked from showing this clip
Remember when we were told to watch Fox News on a Sunday night that was going to air something about Obama and we watched but never saw anything! Well, read below and click on the video to see why it got pulled before it could air
Now we know why Fox News never broadcast it as they had originally planned to. This piece was pulled.
*Remember all the notices we kept getting to watch Fox News on Sunday at 9PM? What Happened?*
*This is the clip that got pulled due to pressure from the Administration.*

Once you see this clip.You will understand BHO’s love affair with Islam.
Please forward – we need all the help we can get in November

If Obama is a LIAR…why were You a special delegate at the DNC Convention and why didn’t you BOO louder ?
Robert commented:
The government is NOT at war with Islam.
Our government does not want to fight. Our politicians do not want to even discuss the incompatibilities Islam displays with modernity. Even our military leadership would rather sacrifice their troops than confront Islamic ideology as long as it is a small number.
Our politicians want to pay “aid” to Moslem countries, which view such payments as tribute.
If the terrorists avoid a large number of American casualties, our politicians and military leadership will continue to act as surrendering forces would, thinking that their political correctness is a strength that will one day lead to friendship. Moslems view such submission as an admission of guilt that must be punished, not admired.

Heh, Obie can’t even fool the idiot jihadis…

Hume: Obama Is Learning Mere Obamaness Can Not Solve Middle East Tensions
“I think we’re seeing, in these events this week, the further education of a president who was, and to some extent, remains a foreign policy novice and he is learning that his mere Obamaness and all that goes with is simply not sufficient to change the fact that the Middle East remains a tinderbox subject to being lit ablaze by even a small match, which I think that movie is at best a small match,” FOX News senior political analyst Brit Hume said on this week’s broadcast of FOX News Sunday.

Patty commented:
If Muslims can get U.S. military uniforms and kill our troop in camps and Americans in our Embassies what is to stop them from another 9/11 attack here on American soil, once again.
Because if our defense and our intel is so lax and couldn’t recognize that all 9/11′s are one of the most important days for military preparedness. What is wrong with this picture. It was not a movie it was an attack for the release of a terrorist that is prison, part was for power grab among Muslims and then a stupid movie, yet the truth will come out provided Obama has gotten to it first. Because the statements from him, Hillary and Rice are totally deceiving and covering up Obama’s failure to realize the Muslims wish us dead. And they saw an opening and took it.
Patty commented:
I believe that this administration has lied, leak and covered up the truth. Yes, there are sensitive documents, but what does Obama care. They gave Hollywood sensitive documents in the OBL killing.

But these same people keeping saying Romney doesn’t have a chance because he doesn’t have foreign policy experience.
This sort of stuff makes my head spin. Obama didn’t have experience one. But he was elected, there must have been some mysterious glow around him or some fairy dust that hook the voters because it wasn’t HIS WONDERFUL KNOWLEDGE ON FOREIGN POLICIES.
Obama was lacking experience to lead period.

Deadly dialogue of the deaf
[............................]
In other words, Egypt not only wants to ban its own citizens from expressing views that Muslims deem insulting, but its government thinks this prohibition should go global. The suggestion appears to be that an obligation to refrain from causing offence to Muslims should be extended to everyone in the world, including the citizens of countries where freedom of expression has always included the “freedom to offend”.
The author of that phrase, incidentally, was Sir Salman Rushdie, whose memoir of his time in hiding is published this week. Back in September 1988, his novel The Satanic Verses came out in Britain and soon encountered a storm of protest.
Sir Salman often claims that the passages of his book that supposedly defamed the Prophet were twisted, exaggerated and sometimes invented in order to drum up Muslim outrage. Whatever the truth, the dying Supreme Leader of Iran, Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, issued a “fatwa”, urging good Muslims to prove their faith by murdering the author.
Sir Salman duly spent most of the next decade in hiding, adopting the pseudonym “Joseph Anton”, from the Christian names of Conrad and Chekhov.
The appearance of his novel caused book-burning demonstrations to take place on British streets for the first time in generations. Looking back, British Muslims see the Rushdie controversy as the moment when their community came together, discovered its collective identity, and began exerting political influence.
Meanwhile, the anti-Rushdie demonstrations spread across the Muslim world; as in today’s disturbances, US diplomatic premises were often targeted, although America had nothing whatever to do with the book. In February 1989, the US Information Centre in Pakistan’s capital was attacked by an anti-Rushdie mob.
One possible conclusion is that nothing has changed since the appearance of The Satanic Verses: the visceral reaction to the YouTube video shows that Muslim nerves are as raw as ever and the opposition to genuine freedom of expression just as deeply felt. But this would be too sweeping. Despite everything, there are some reasons to believe that the gulf of understanding might eventually close. [........................]
Even in Egypt, Mr Morsi might be a pillar of the Muslim Brotherhood, but he must avoid being outflanked by the more radical Salafist movement. Hence he might have felt compelled to protest about the video directly to Mr Obama. Meanwhile, the Brotherhood has tied itself in knots over the embassy demonstrations, alternately endorsing them and urging calm.
Ordinary Muslims understand these manoeuvres very well. Last week, a friend in Tunisia told me that his country’s rabble-rousers had started an “auction” where “everyone wants to show that they are a better Muslim than anyone else”. He then added words that should be carved in marble: “My Prophet would not worry about a video. He wouldn’t care about that. My Prophet would care about the state of our societies. He would want us to be developed, he would want us to be successful.”
Is the true face of Islam represented by the Cairo mob, or by the quiet wisdom of my friend in Tunis? If his words prevail, the Muslim world will grow to understand that Western countries can never abandon freedom of expression, and that coexistence cannot be based on intimidation.
So the battles being fought outside Western embassies are also signals of a wider struggle within Islam itself. The outcome hangs in the balance.
