Obama's "Audacity of Hope" - by Bee Sting

Americans Stand with Israel
by Bee Sting
Sunday, January 15, 2012

Expect President Obama and his administration to favor Muslims at every turn in the road.  If Obama is re-elected, the U.S./Israel relationship will continue to decline.  This must not be allowed to happen!  That being said, there is a misquote from Obama's book "The Audacity of Hope".  Obama never said in his book ""I will stand with the Muslims should the political winds shift in an ugly direction",   The correct quote is as follows:  
 "Of course, not all my conversations in immigrant communities follow this easy pattern. In the wake of 9/11, my meetings with Arab and Pakistani Americans, for example, have a more urgent quality, for the stories of detentions and FBI questioning and hard stares from neighbors have shaken their sense of security and belonging. They have been reminded that the history of immigration in this country has a dark underbelly; they need specific assurances that their citizenship really means something, that America has learned the right lessons from the Japanese internments during World War II, and that I will stand with them should the political winds shift in an ugly direction."
Whew!  It is good to clear up rumors and present truth, especially when determining who Obama refers to when stating he will "stand with "them".  He obviously is referring to American immigrants - correct?  No one nation gets it right 100% of the time.  What happened during that period of America's history was understandable after the Japanese attack at Pearl Harbor, but never let it be said that America did not learn from previous mistakes: President Bush did not round up all America's Muslim immigrants after September 11th, when it was determined that Islamic terrorists were responsible for the murder of almost 3,000 Americans within less than two hours.

Was what happened on Sept. 11th any less frightening than that Sunday morning at Pearl Harbor?  Listen to a phone call between myself and my dear mother the morning of 9/11:  We lived in different states and I called her shortly after the first plane hit the Tower, knowing she would be concerned, and the moment she picked up the phone, she asked me:
"Who would do this to us?  Who would kill all these innocent people?  Are we at war?  Who declared war on America?!  I am so afraid.  This reminds me of Pearl Harbor, but it is worse because these Towers are not a military base!  We have never been attacked on our own land.  ......  "
 I would say the murdering Arab/Islamic terrorists had clearly terrorized my 85 year old mother that fateful morning.  Ten years have passed, troops coming home, but this war will not end and in the process, Americans have allowed many of its freedoms to be removed under the guise of keeping America "safe".

Now, getting back to who or what Obama "stands with", what I find interesting about his book and comment is the fact that it was written BEFORE September 11th's attacks by Islamic terrorists.  Like most federal departments, The Immigration and Naturalization Services should have been over-hauled long before Sept. 11th; but certainly after 9/11, which was one of the main duties of the newly-formed Department of Homeland Security.  Immigration was a problem during previous administrations, thousands of illegal aliens swarm the borders between Mexico and the U.S.; and thousands more, including Islamic "refugees" are invited into the U.S. without even background checks and nothing has improved with the U.S. immigration services these past ten years, but it has grown worse.

So, Obama's obsession over immigration may be admirable, but not necessary and not his primary responsibility as President of the United States. We cannot know or read someone's mind.  However, we can come to some conclusions by watching the actions of an individual, as actions speak louder than words.  While we noted that Obama was misquoted from his book, The Audacity of Hope, his actions clearly define the man and reveal that the word "Muslim" was a misquote, but during the past 3 plus years since he took office, Obama most certainly meant "Muslims" and he has proven that since Day One of his presidency.  

And it is extremely important to note during this, an election year.  Why?

Because Obama has not only an "Israel" problem, he has an American problem.  He not only owes Israel an apology, he owes America an apology.  
To quote Reince Priebus:
"To say their Administration has a stellar record on Israel requires the same deliberate short-sightedness as apologizing for our country. .... The president cannot claim to be a staunch ally while at the same time suggesting that peace negotiations be based on Israel’s pre-1967 borders. Likewise, no president standing shoulder-to-shoulder with Israel would suggest Congress water down sanctions against Iran—especially at a time when they seem closer than ever to acquiring a nuclear weapon. 
The truth is, America’s security interests are intertwined with Israel’s, and when President Obama does a disservice to Israel, he does a disservice to our country as well."

Since "America's security interests are intertwined with Israel's" (that is only common sense!!), and because just two weeks ago, as proof of Israel's importance to the United States and the Middle East, the U.S. deployed troops to Israel and this is the first move to our two nations fighting terrorism together, with the same mind-set in protecting our democracies from terrorism both here and abroad.


With that in mind, I have to question why in over three years hasn't Obama visited Israel?  Even when next door, at the beginning of his term as President, while in Cairo, he made no plans to hop over to say "Hello" to our ally Israel.  Was this an oversight, or a deliberate calculation to demonstrate he is the friend to all Muslims, and it did not matter if he slighted the Israelis in the process of his tour in the Middle East.  Wouldn't want to tarnish that huge medal hanging around his neck after bowing to the Saudi King!


Someone asked me the other day, why Obama continues to slam Israel in public; releases  information that should be filed under "national security", such as, Obama publicly denying (as does Israel) anything to do with the accident of an Iranian scientist,but publicly dresses down Israel, by phone, demanding answers from PM Netanyahu about Iran's scientist; Obama issues stern warning to Israel not to strike Iran; etc. etc.  In other words, Obama is saying "Hey, wasn't me, must be those Israelis and I'll give them a call immediately!   Like a child, pointing fingers at his brother/sister blaming someone else for taking a cookie from the cookie jar. 


Obama goes to the extreme, always, in avoiding a show down with Iran; in blaming Israel for anything and everything under the sun; in apologizing to the Muslims for America; and so, we know who "them" are that he refers to in his book, and they aren't Jews or Israel; they aren't American citizens; they are, without a doubt, Muslims - not just American Muslim immigrants but all Muslim nations/countries and organizations throughout the world.  Most, like Iran, who are enemies of the United States of America.

Obama is Lying and Why Islam is Violent

Uploaded by on Nov 29, 2009
In 2009, the US president Barack Obama held a speech in Cairo to the muslim world. He pretty much declared that all of the hostilities were the Wests fault and that Islam is a peaceful religion, which was not part of the problem in combating violent extremists in the Islamic world. To just his claim he cited Surah 5:32 in the Quran. The problem is that the very same Surah legitimize violence against Christians, Jews and non-believers. This is what Surah 5:32-33 says according to one translation:

[5:32] For this reason did We prescribe to THE CHILDREN OF ISRAEL that whoever slays a soul, unless it be for manslaughter or for mischief in the land, it is as though he slew all men; and whoever keeps it alive, it is as though he kept alive all men; and certainly Our apostles came to them with clear arguments, but even after that many of them certainly act extravagantly in the land. 

[5:33] The punishment of those who wage war against Allah and His apostle and strive to make mischief in the land is only this, that they should be MURDERED OR CRUCIFIED or their hands and their feet should be CUT OFF on opposite sides or they should be imprisoned; this shall be as a disgrace for them in this world, and in the hereafter they shall have a grievous chastisement,

How can Obama cite Surah 5:32 and at the same time say that Islam is a peaceful religion? The very same passage he is citing legitimize murder! 

Obama is not only a liar who is trying to SELL ISLAM to us instead of standing up for the Christian tradition, he is also making appeasement policies with murderous Islamic regimes like for example Iran, which murders Iranians and finances terrorism around the world.

Obama's Deceitful Speech on Islam in Cairo

Here is the text as prepared for delivery, provided by the White House, via USA Today, June 4 -- with my [Robert Spencers] comments interspersed:

I am honored to be in the timeless city of Cairo, and to be hosted by two remarkable institutions. For over a thousand years, Al-Azhar has stood as a beacon of Islamic learning,
...whose Grand Sheikh, Muhammad Sayyid Tantawi, has given his approval — on Islamic grounds — to suicide bombing.

and for over a century, Cairo University has been a source of Egypt's advancement. Together, you represent the harmony between tradition and progress. I am grateful for your hospitality, and the hospitality of the people of Egypt. I am also proud to carry with me the goodwill of the American people, and a greeting of peace from Muslim communities in my country: assalaamu alaykum.
According to Islamic law, a Muslim may only extend this greeting -- Peace be upon you -- to a fellow Muslim. To a non-Muslim he is to say, "Peace be upon those who are rightly guided," i.e., Peace be upon the Muslims. Islamic law is silent about what Muslims must do when naive non-Muslim Islamophilic Presidents offer the greeting to Muslims.

We meet at a time of tension between the United States and Muslims around the world tension rooted in historical forces that go beyond any current policy debate. The relationship between Islam and the West includes centuries of co-existence and cooperation, but also conflict and religious wars. More recently, tension has been fed by colonialism that denied rights and opportunities to many Muslims, and a Cold War in which Muslim-majority countries were too often treated as proxies without regard to their own aspirations. Moreover, the sweeping change brought by modernity and globalization led many Muslims to view the West as hostile to the traditions of Islam.
"Co-existence and cooperation"? When and where, exactly?

In closing, does anyone reading still doubt that Obama "stands with Muslims" - in both word and deed?  Ask yourself, before voting in November, would America be safe with Obama's agenda and appeasements to America's enemies if allowed a second term?  Not just with his abominable, disgusting, double-minded foreign policies, but also with his continued 14 TRILLION plus downfall of America's economy.

One thing different in this election is Obama cannot blame Bush for the past three years!  A GOP candidate only has to replay over and over again, the videos, speeches, and actions/record of Obama to end America's nightmare that has lasted since the day BHO took office.

The restoration of America will begin November 2012 - it will be a vote against Obama.
