Obama’s “Selfie” Pal Urges Muslims To Be Like Al Qaeda

Obama’s “Selfie” Pal Urges Muslims To Be Like Al Qaeda

At his press conference with Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak, Obama took the time to denounce NBA Clippers owner Donald Sterling for racism.
Obama in a joint press conference with Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak said Sunday that both countries have issues with human rights that need to be addressed.
Obama called Najib a “reformer”.
“I think the Prime Minister is the first to acknowledge that Malaysia’s still got some work to do. Just like the United States, by the way, has some work to do on these issues,” Obama said.
Obama also condemned the “incredibly offensive racist statements” attributed to Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling, calling them a sign of how the U.S. continues to wrestle with its legacy of “slavery and segregation.”
“Like Malaysia, we constantly have to be on guard against racial attitudes that divide us rather than embracing our diversity as a strength,” Obama said. “We have to make sure that we stay on top of it.”
And Obama took a “selfie” with the Islamic tyrant because he’s still basically a child.
The Great Reformer of Malaysia however has some thoughts on Al Qaeda.
Umno must emulate the bravery of a Middle Eastern militant group that defeated an Iraqi force outnumbering it nearly 30 to one if the Malay nationalist party is to survive, Datuk Seri Najib Razak said yesterday.
“As proof — whether we agree or not is another matter — the group ISIL with the strength of just 1,300 people, can defeat an Iraqi army of 30,000 soldiers, until four, five generals with three, four stars run for their lives, jump out the window at night. Why? Because they are afraid of those who are brave,” he told more than 1,000 Umno members in attendance.
He also stressed the importance of being loyal to Allah, the party, and friends.
Razak has some obvious things in common with Al Qaeda.
Malaysia’s top court on Monday upheld a government ban forbidding non-Muslims from using “Allah” to refer to God, rejecting an appeal by the Roman Catholic Church that argued that the law failed to consider the rights of minorities in the largely Muslim nation.
Some experts believe the Allah issue is an attempt by Prime Minister Najib Razak’s ruling Malay party to strengthen its conservative Muslim voter base. Religion has become an easy tool because government policies have made Islam and Malay identity inseparable.
