The action of the video producer was wrong, the nature of reaction of on the streets mobs was worse and Obama’s speech on regrettable action and disgustingly inhuman reaction respectively was the worst. Obama tried to establish that American media and the world they live in have the freedom to malign and hurt more than one billion people if the two freedoms are wrapped in constitutionally protected “freedom of speech.” He accepts that the act was wrong but stubbornly insists that the perpetrators will continue doing it because First Amendment allows that. A speech does not only reflect how a person views a particular situation, its causes and consequences, it showcases his personality too. Obama’s full of contradictions speech in United Nations did not disappoint Muslims; it was utterly disgusting for people who, irrespective of their respective faiths, have a sense of justice across the globe.
1) President Barack Obama visited Cedar Falls, Iowa to speak about expanding high-speed internet access, drawing both supporters and protesters of his administration.
2) The protesters, organized by a group called the Cedar Valley Patriots for Christ, significantly outnumbered the Obama supporters initially and held signs expressing opposition to policies like Obamacare.
3) While the two sides expressed differing views on a range of issues including Keystone XL, immigration, foreign wars, and tax policy, one protester noted that everyone has a right to voice their opinions as long as it's done appropriately and nonviolently.
The document outlines Michael Moore's film Bowling for Columbine and examines American attitudes towards guns. It shows how easy it is to obtain guns from banks and bullets from hair salons. Despite school shootings like Columbine, the NRA continues promoting pro-gun stances. Experts blamed outside influences like music instead of the widespread gun culture. Comparisons show the US has far more gun deaths than other countries due to long-held fears and the belief that guns provide protection and independence rather than danger. The news exploits these fears for profit through exaggerated crime stories.
James O'Keefe released three undercover videos via social media from October 17-24 exposing alleged voter fraud by the Democratic campaign. The videos were widely viewed online and discussed in media outlets. However, some media organizations questioned the validity of O'Keefe's videos and his motivations as a conservative activist. The videos led to resignations but also divided public opinions, with some praising the exposure of corruption while others criticized O'Keefe's tactics and history of selectively editing videos. The study analyzed how O'Keefe utilized social media and the varied media and public reactions to bypass traditional journalism.
The document discusses the growing threat of domestic terrorism in the United States carried out by lone wolf attackers. It argues that easy access to guns, radicalization on the internet, and anti-government sentiments have contributed to homegrown terrorism. Examples given include the Boston Marathon bombing, Fort Hood shooting, and LAX shooting. The author calls for stricter gun control laws and limitations on who can purchase or possess firearms to help address the threat of lone wolf terrorist attacks in America.
The document summarizes three incidents that sparked anger in Americans: Colin Kaepernick sitting during the national anthem, a police shooting of a black man in Charlotte, and the Black Lives Matter movement. It discusses how each incident caused outrage and protests. In the Kaepernick case, fans burned his jersey in anger over disrespecting the flag. The Charlotte shooting led to protests with signs that turned violent at times. While Black Lives Matter campaigns peacefully against violence, some see it as responsible for violent protests. Overall, the document argues these events prominently displayed the deadly sin of anger in modern American society.
This document discusses the representation of Muslims in various media formats such as films and news websites. It provides the examples of the films "Executive Decision" and "Shoot on Sight" to show how portrayals have changed from negative stereotypes pre-9/11 to more nuanced depictions post-9/11. News coverage on websites like CNN and BBC is also examined, finding that CNN often takes a more negative stance while BBC represents both sides of stories involving Muslims. Overall, the document analyzes how Muslims have historically been misrepresented in Western media due to ignorance and seeks to understand portrayals across different media over time.
After the September 11th terrorist attacks, there were reports of hate crimes targeting Muslims, Arabs, and South Asians in the United States. These included death threats to a Palestinian American student, rocks and eggs being thrown at an Islamic center, and bottles being thrown at a Sikh taxi driver. In response, President Bush visited an Islamic center to condemn the acts of violence and reaffirm that Islam teaches peace. However, some Americans still supported increased surveillance of Arab and Muslim Americans in the period after 9/11.
The four police officers who testified at the first hearing of the January 6th Capitol riot described harrowing experiences of violence and racial slurs. Officer Harry Dunn recounted being called racial slurs while in uniform. Their testimony mirrored the darkness of Childish Gambino's "This is America" music video. Republicans have tried to dismiss the riot as "excitable tourists" rather than the white domestic terrorist attack that it was, as part of ongoing efforts to promote lies of white exceptionalism and erase the truth about racism in America's history. The insurrection showed that the country is at war with an ideology seeking to destroy truth and progress.

The song "We The People..." by A Tribe Called Quest illuminates problems in modern America such as police brutality, racial discrimination, threats of deportation, and lack of equality. It references subjects like white supremacy, love, money, and the Civil Rights movement. Q-Tip argues that minorities no longer trust the government despite it deriving power from "the people." He compares modern minority communities to the experience of sitting at the back of the bus during segregation. The song criticizes gentrification, the IRS, and Donald Trump's rhetoric around deporting immigrants and Muslims. It asserts that A Tribe Called Quest is more than just "rappers" and that numbers cannot determine the success of art.
This document contains screening notes for Michael Moore's documentary "Bowling for Columbine". It provides a highly detailed summary of various scenes and sequences in the film. The notes touch on Moore's use of humor, manipulation of footage, interviews with subjects like the president of the NRA, and agenda to critique American gun culture and issues like fear, consumerism, and poverty. The notes also include criticism that Moore oversimplifies issues and takes a very biased viewpoint throughout the film.
The document provides an overview of the 2016 US presidential election between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump. It outlines their backgrounds, policy positions, and how supporters and opponents view each candidate. Clinton is an experienced politician and former Secretary of State, while Trump is a businessman and reality TV star who lacks political experience. They have different stances on issues like immigration, foreign trade, and national security. The document explores the factors that drive support for each candidate and also the criticisms of them.
This document discusses how popular culture, such as films, television shows, music, and video games, have helped shape the national narrative around the 9/11 terrorist attacks and subsequent "War on Terror". It examines how these mediums have depicted American patriotism, fear, victimization, and the emergence of a collective national identity in response to the events. The essays in this book analyze popular culture works to better understand how 9/11 has been memorialized and how it permanently altered American national mythology. It argues that analyzing popular culture can provide insight into both the meaning and lasting impacts of 9/11 beyond just the official political rhetoric.
Hate crimes were first recognized by Congress in the late 1990s, though they have occurred throughout American history in acts like lynching and cross burnings. The FBI began tracking hate crimes in the early 20th century in response to the Ku Klux Klan. Today the FBI continues working with local partners to prevent hate crimes and bring perpetrators to justice, as hate crimes predominantly target people due to their race, religion, sexual orientation, or disability.
Daniel was a 16-year-old boy with dreams of graduating high school and attending college to study computer programming. He enjoyed racing bikes and working hard to qualify for the world cycling cup in Chile. Unfortunately, Daniel was shot and killed by a stray bullet in 1991 while on his way home from summer school. His mother Ruby later documented her personal grief process and made a documentary about Daniel's life to bring more awareness to the issue of urban violence. She states that exposure to gun violence is a major factor and that murder should be viewed as a socially infectious disease.
The document discusses whether free speech should be regulated. The author believes it should be regulated to some extent, such as when speech endangers someone's safety or well-being. The author cites examples where offensive speech targeting religion or minority groups was restricted or punished in court. The author agrees with regulations on hate speech or speech intended to demean groups. Overall the document argues that while free speech is important, it should be limited to prevent harm.
John Allen Muhammad and Lee Boyd Malvo, known as the DC snipers, carried out random shootings in the Washington D.C. area in 2002. Muhammad hoped to kill his ex-wife to regain custody of their children, while Malvo claimed the ransom was for homeless children. They shot from their car trunk. Victims had no common traits and were seemingly random. Police were tipped off about a fingerprint at another crime scene, leading them to identify Muhammad and Malvo. Muhammad was sentenced to death and Malvo to life in prison without parole. Serial killers are difficult to identify because they appear normal and plan organized crimes without leaving evidence.
Andre Todd Hobson, a 19-year-old from Richmond, VA, recorded a rap song called "Vote 4 Justice" to encourage black youth to vote in the upcoming presidential election. However, Hobson will report for basic training in the U.S. Army just one week after recording the song. The song calls for black youth to utilize their power to vote and make a difference. Hobson is dedicating his life to his country by serving in the Army while also using his musical talents to empower black youth civic participation.
I put together this presentation for my local Meetup to show attendees the marketing lessons I gleaned from this past 2016 presidential election.
The good, the bad, and the ugly.
This is NOT about politics. It's about how the two main candidates (Trump and Clinton) SOLD their vision.
Or how they didn't. Or how one did better than the other and consequently moved more people in the battleground states to win.
I won't tell you here - look at the presentation and tell me what you think.
This document provides a historical overview of race riots in the United States from the 1835 Snow Riot through recent events in Ferguson, Missouri in 2014. It describes the causes and impacts of several prominent race riots, including the Red Summer of 1919 where over 120 people were killed in riots across 20 cities, the 1943 Beaumont race riot sparked by an alleged rape, and riots following the acquittals of officers involved in the Rodney King beating and George Zimmerman in the killing of Trayvon Martin. The document also discusses riots in Anaheim, California in response to police shootings of Manuel Diaz and others and the ongoing protests in Ferguson over the police killing of Michael Brown.
The document summarizes and compares two films about sexual assault on college campuses: Share and The Hunting Ground. Share tells the story of a teenage girl who wakes up after a night of partying not remembering being assaulted. The film uses visual techniques to put viewers in the perspective of the trauma and recovery. The Hunting Ground documents actual cases of sexual assault at various universities and criticizes the institutions for ignoring victims and prioritizing public image over student welfare. Both films aim to depict the experiences of survivors and start important conversations about addressing sexual violence.
Komodo dragons, the world's largest lizards found only in Indonesia, have begun unprovoked attacks on villagers, killing two people since 2007. This is causing fear among villagers who have long lived alongside the dragons. In a recent incident, a Komodo dragon attacked a park ranger in his hut, biting his hand when he tried to pry open its jaws. With increased attacks but rare historically, there is debate around how to ensure human and dragon safety going forward.
John Allen Muhammad and Lee Boyd Malvo carried out the DC Sniper attacks in October 2002, killing 10 people in Maryland, Virginia, and Washington DC over three weeks. Muhammad, an Army veteran, had a criminal history and struggled with custody issues over his children. He met Malvo in Antigua in 1999 and influenced the troubled teenager, teaching him survival skills. They were eventually apprehended sleeping in their car in Maryland and charged for their crimes. Muhammad was sentenced to death and executed in 2009, while Malvo received life in prison without parole.
The document provides a comparison of the films Zero Dark Thirty and Lone Survivor. Both films depict real-life incidents involving U.S. Navy SEALs and terrorists. They are similar in showing the patriotism of Navy SEALs, the high casualty counts, and settings primarily in Afghanistan. However, they differ in the terrorists' motives - Osama bin Laden sought revenge on the U.S. in Zero Dark Thirty, while terrorists in Lone Survivor wanted to threaten the U.S. and show their power.
- Bill Clinton denied having an inappropriate relationship with Monica Lewinsky, but later admitted it was wrong. He used defense strategies like denial, bolstering, and putting the actions in a larger context.
- Republicans like Newt Gingrich and Henry Hyde ended up admitting to their own past indiscretions, weakening their attacks on Clinton.
- Despite the scandal, Democrats gained seats in the 1998 midterms, partly due to a strong economy under Clinton. The scandal may have made Gore distance himself somewhat from Clinton in 2000.
Ilhan Omar Condemned and Apologizes for Anti-Semitic Statementsusa_news
Representative Ilhan Omar, marred in antisemitic hate speech, apologized on suggesting that American support for more information just visit :- https://americantruthproject.org/
This document discusses three incidents of police brutality against African American men that led to riots. The first was the 1992 beating of Rodney King by LAPD officers, which was caught on video but the officers were acquitted, sparking the LA riots. The second was the 2014 shooting of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri, where the officer was not indicted, fueling more riots. The third was the 2009 shooting of Oscar Grant by BART police in Oakland, where the officer was convicted of involuntary manslaughter to minimal outrage. While the riots caused damage, the incidents also galvanized social justice movements like Black Lives Matter seeking police reform and equal treatment of African Americans.
Emmett Till was a 14-year-old African American boy from Chicago who was visiting family in Mississippi in 1955. While there, he allegedly flirted with a white woman in a grocery store, which prompted her husband and brother-in-law to later kidnap, beat, and shoot Till, dumping his body in the Tallahatchie River. Till's brutal murder sparked national outrage and drew attention to the long history of violence against African Americans in the Jim Crow-era South.

The world leaders and media owners need to understand that the freedom of expression does not mean the freedom to malign personalities who deserve to be respected irrespective of their religion, nationality, color and creed. We, people of the world, ought to keep in mind that we are members of a single global family. Once, we convince ourselves to admit that we are “Members of a Single Family” created by the Only Creator through Adam and Eve, no matter where on earth we live, no matter what is the color of our skin, no matter which language we speak, no matter which religious faith or the ideology we follow, only then we will realize how difficult it is to hate or hurt a member of our own family. No constitution any where in the world and the statute of the United Nations allow any government, individual and institution including the print and electronic media to hurt the religious sentiments of citizens of any country, minorities and any community.

Don't Hate - Debate! (Freedom of Speech) || Australian Islamic Library || www...Muhammad Nabeel Musharraf
This document discusses the concept of freedom of speech and whether it includes the right to insult and degrade others. It argues that insulting language does not further the objectives of free speech, which are to seek truth, facilitate progress, and hold those in power accountable. Insults create barriers to understanding and can even lead to harm. While free speech is important, with rights come responsibilities. Societies that tolerate uncivil and abusive language may become more divided. The document advocates for respectful discussion that understands different perspectives.
The West’s View on Islam/Muslims: Islamophobia?Amira Daghache
This research paper will take a deeper look at the West’s view of Islam and asks questions whether it’s all Islamophobia or something deeper.

Shura - Discussion: How The American News Media Reports Stories Related to Is...Maral Cavner
Honors Thesis Presentation: How The American News Media Reports Stories Related to Islam and Its Impacts on Muslims Living in the United States by Maral Cavner
The document discusses the influence of American Muslims in the 2012 US presidential election. It notes that 91% of American Muslims voted in 2012, higher than previous years. While Romney received only 7% of the Muslim vote, Obama received 66% due largely to his stance on issues important to Muslims like jobs, education, and civil rights. The document also discusses the perspectives of both candidates on American Muslims and debates around the construction of the Ground Zero mosque.
The document is a presentation aimed at building bridges between Muslims and Americans. It acknowledges grievances Muslims may have with American foreign policy but argues that hating Americans is counterproductive. Most Americans are open-minded, and there are millions of American Muslims. It encourages engaging with America through non-violent political means instead of extremism, as the Prophet Muhammad responded to mockery and criticism with patience and wisdom rather than violence.
Islamophobia refers to an unfounded fear of Islam and Muslims that has become a major problem in society. Common misconceptions held by Islamophobes include beliefs that Islam is intolerant of other religions and tied to terrorism, though these are untrue. Since 9/11, some Americans have wrongly viewed Muslims as enemies of the U.S. The media also contributes to spreading Islamophobia by negatively portraying Islam and Muslims. However, Muslims can cope with Islamophobia by politely correcting misinformation, avoiding media sources that promote prejudice, and getting involved in their communities to reduce fear of Muslims.
This document discusses debates around regulating journalists' free speech. It notes that some argue regulation could increase security by limiting reports that encourage terrorism, while others argue regulations infringe on free speech. The document also discusses countries that have arrested or killed journalists for reports seen as threatening. Overall, it weighs the benefits of regulated speech in preventing violence against the risks of limiting free expression.

Economic Power of any country is its real power in today’s world. Every other tangible and intangible element of national power without substantive economic power is worthless in international relations and global power politics.

This document summarizes several social and economic problems facing Pakistan, their causes, and why they persist. The key problems discussed are: unimpressive growth rate due to lack of vision and reliable data; non-productive expenses like large bureaucracies and military spending; trade and budget deficits due to unchecked imports and luxurious government spending; inflation fueled by loan defaults and black market money; power shortages partially due to organized corruption; depleting gas reserves and increasing oil costs despite potential reserves; underinvestment due to issues like corruption and security concerns; and widespread tax evasion. The overarching point made is that the groups responsible for creating these problems through corruption and mismanagement are also the ones with the power to solve
Three curable symptoms of an ailing global economy and their treatmentSUN&FZ Associates
It goes without saying that poverty and inequality beyond rationally acceptable limit are caused by wrong economic, monetary and fiscal policies; legislative, legal and regulatory flaws; and imbalance between pro-business and pro-people and pro-employer and pro-employee policies.
The transfer of money through channels other than strictly regulated and monitored companies cannot be ruled out but that money’s unchecked investment in bonds, shares, properties and business companies clearly and convincingly points out that the countries and their governments at both ends are intentional accomplices of white collar crimes for a number of understandable but inexcusable reasons.
Is it possible that those who are responsible to monitor the inter-state flow of money don’t know from which countries money is transferred to their countries? Who in regulatory, banking and financial circles doesn’t know whose money is parked in which tax haven for how long? Who doesn’t know who manages the illegally transferred funds on whose behalf? Why do the tax havens hide the information?

Interestingly, nothing in human lives like in day-to-day performance of nature is happening out of a well-defined and fixed time-frame. Like nature, human life is also divided into a daily 24-hour cycle of temporary life and death leading to its ultimate unpredictable end called permanent death which is so far uncontrollable.
The consequences of the wrong actions in the right directionSUN&FZ Associates
It is not that those who mattered in corridors of political power were not timely advised to put Pakistan’s derailed political process back on track. It is also not that the so-called establishment did not acknowledge and consider the set of suggestions which were submitted for its consideration and appropriate action. Then what went wrong?
An exclusive political review of excerpts from an article published in the daily Jang Lahore on 18th and 19th April, 1990 and an analysis of what is happening in Pakistan now and how that can be corrected!
The most frightening and totally ignored political reality is that a group of provincial leaders is independently running the federal government and the provinces without any sign of an Integrated Provincial and National Vision and Plan of Action.
A provincially, administratively and politically weak and handicapped central government and on-their-own provincial governments do not seem to have the much needed will and the resources to forcefully eliminate the political and corporate crime mafias now evidently hiding behind unquestionably fake war against terror which is the biggest global political, diplomatic and military fraud of the past and present century. Pakistan’s problem is not war against terrorism. Pakistan’s problem is now identified criminal political and alleged corporate mafias who are plundering and hollowing Pakistan by hiding and acting from behind the mask of war against terror, the failure of law enforcement agencies to unmask them and recruitment of armed gangs of criminals by a number of, not all, politicians and corporate tycoons as security guards.
THE BOTTOM LINE IS: Stop using the term TERRORISTS and start chasing the CRIMINALS!

Do we think that a few isolated barbaric incidents can succeed in terrorizing entire population of Pakistan and make them Taliban Branded Shariah Compliant?

Why Does Obama Need to Change His
Speech Writers?
Freedom to Hurt Wrapped in Freedom of Speech Is Constitutional
The action of the video producer was wrong, the nature of reaction of on the
streets mobs was worse and Obama’s speech on regrettable action and
disgustingly inhuman reaction respectively was the worst. Obama tried to
establish that American media and the world they live in have the freedom to
malign and hurt more than one billion people if the two freedoms are wrapped
in constitutionally protected “freedom of speech.” He accepts that the act was
wrong but stubbornly insists that the perpetrators will continue doing it because
First Amendment allows that. A speech does not only reflect how a person
views a particular situation, its causes and consequences, it showcases his
personality too. Obama’s full of contradictions speech in United Nations did not
disappoint Muslims; it was utterly disgusting for people who, irrespective of
their respective faiths, have a sense of justice across the globe.

2. What Does Obama Need to Change His Speech Writers
By Zahid Hussain Khalid
Muslims are wrong in expecting that what they respect from their religious perspective is equally
respectable for those in mainstream media who pretend to represent the views of majority of non-
Muslims on anti-Muslim television and in newspapers. The best reaction to a provocative negative
action, therefore, is a positive behavior.
Nobody believes that majority of the Muslims and non-Muslims, as media tries to stress, does not know
the difference between freedom of speech and freedom to malign; freedom of the press and the
freedom to provoke; and the freedom to admit one’s mistake and freedom to insist on doing it again as
a fundamental constitutional right because the people at the receiving end do not belong to their
religion and also admittedly do not know how to react to an act of provocation. This is exactly what
Obama ignored in his speech in United Nations, focused more on reaction and less on provocation and
misinterpreted the First Amendment too.
The scripted and covertly staged reaction of the Muslims was seen through media and this was what
Obama and his speech writers tried real hard to take advantage of on the platform of United Nations.
3. The action of the video producer was wrong,
the nature of reaction of on the streets mobs
was worse and Obama’s speech on regrettable
action and disgustingly inhuman reaction
respectively was the worst. Obama tried to
establish that American media and the world
they live in have the freedom to malign and
hurt more than one billion people if the two freedoms are wrapped in constitutionally protected
“freedom of speech.” He accepts that the act of provocation was wrong but stubbornly insists that the
perpetrators will continue doing it because First Amendment allows that.
A speech does not only reflect how a person views a particular situation, its causes and consequences, it
showcases his personality too. Obama’s full of contradictions speech in United Nations did not
disappoint Muslims; it was utterly disgusting for people who, irrespective of their respective faiths, have
a sense of justice across the globe.
Obama discussed the outcome of an act of provocation, acknowledged its outcome and stubbornly
refused to respond appropriately because according to him and his speech writers “There is no speech
(replace the carefully selected word speech with an act of inexcusable provocation) that justifies
mindless violence. There are no words that excuse the killing of innocents. There's no video that justifies
an attack on an embassy (without mentioning that Ambassador’s life was under threat according to
notes in his personal diary much earlier than the reaction to contents of the blasphemous video).
There's no slander that provides an excuse for people to burn a restaurant in Lebanon, or destroy a
school in Tunis, or cause death and destruction in Pakistan.” Before uttering these words he proudly
admits “…we insisted on change in Egypt, we supported a transition of leadership in Yemen, we
intervened in Libya, we again declare that the regime of Basahr al- Asad must come to an end. We have
4. taken these positions because WE believe that freedom and self-determination are not unique to one
culture. These are not simply American values or Western values -- they are universal values.” Can
anybody dare to ask him why did he and who is he, even as President of America, in a free world to do
that? After a few sentences this is what he says “Now, let me be clear: Just as we cannot solve every
problem in the world, the United States has not and will not seek to dictate the outcome of democratic
transitions abroad.” He makes a ridiculous statement that he will not dictate the outcome of his actions
after posing his nose in the internal political affairs of the countries he has named for democratic
transitions through forced overt and covert military actions abroad. What nonsense! All actions are
meant to support a perceived democratic transition that may lead to a positive or a negative outcome.
Mr. Obama, when you take pride in something and brag about it on UN platform then you must have
the moral courage to accept and share the responsibility for its outcome too as a supporter of its cause
and contributor in that action.
The two sentences that have been quoted here from his speech do not reflect the mindset of the
President of one of the most powerful countries in the world instead “Obama,” according to Jennifer
5. Robin in her article “Right Turn” published in online Washington Post of September 25, 2012, “is
heading down a path to nowhere in which every statement of intolerance theoretically must be
individually condemned by our government. But he doesn’t mean it. The hypocrisy is evident. He
doesn’t and will never do this when Evangelical Christians are vilified, when art displays portray Jesus in
offensive ways or when Broadway musicals jab at Mormons.” She continues, “Moreover, the moral
equivalence is downright appalling. Intolerant speech and insulting cartoons — that is free speech — is
NOT the same as violence. And Holocaust denial by governments is not the same as boisterous,
irreverent free speech exercised by free peoples. When he also concedes that the future should not
belong to those ‘who target Coptic Christians in Egypt’ and ‘bully women’ (bullying is what he calls
mutilation, honor killings and child marriages?) in the same patter in which he denounces those who
‘slander’ Islam he suggests these are all equally heinous and all deserving of eradication.” So according
to Mr. Jennifer Robin Obama is not unfair to Muslims alone he is equally unfair to other religious
communities too. Else, she also mixes up the free speech with freedom to malign and freedom to hurt!
She is very annoyed on Obama’s hypocrisy and conditional condemnation of the video’s content
reflecting a particular pattern of religious intolerance CLEARLY visible in American and European Media.
Coming back to Obama’s comic speech in
United Nations, popularly known as Circus of
Diplomats, he says, “… a crude and disgusting
video sparked outrage throughout the Muslim
world. Now, I have made it clear that the United
States government had nothing to do with this
video, and I believe its message must be
rejected by all who respect our common humanity. It is an insult not only to Muslims, but to America
as well -- for as the city outside these walls makes clear, we are a country that has welcomed people of
6. every race and every faith. We are home to Muslims who worship across our country. We not only
respect the freedom of religion, we have laws that protect individuals from being harmed because of
how they look or what they believe. We understand why people take offense to this video because
millions of our citizens are among them. I know there are some who ask why we don’t just ban such a
video. And the answer is enshrined in our laws: Our Constitution protects the right to practice free
speech.” This is American President’s sense of justice representing more than fair and honest American
people who made history by electing him President of United States knowing that his religious
background is dubious and he is an African American which, to Muslims like American voters, is not a
disqualification! It was a remarkably laudable and unique electoral verdict by religiously, ethnically and
racially unbiased American voters. Did he consciously make a fake attempt in his speech to prove that
he did not have a Muslim religious family background or did he desperately and foolishly try to prepare
ground for his second term in White House by representing the views of a few who matter more than
the voters in American Presidential elections? I leave the answers to those who will vote or not for him
in coming elections.
He points out, “there will always be those that reject human progress -- dictators who cling to power,
corrupt interests that depend on the status quo, and extremists who fan the flames of hate and division.
From Northern Ireland to South Asia, from Africa to the Americas, from the Balkans to the Pacific Rim,
we’ve witnessed convulsions that can accompany transitions to a new political order.” Will anyone ask
Mr. Obama which country has a history of patronizing those who reject human progress, dictators who
cling to power, corrupt interests that depend on the status quo and particularly “extremists” who “fan”
the flames of hate and division? What did Obama indirectly, sheepishly and cowardly, with pretended
boldness, endorsed in his speech in United Nations? He has shamelessly endorsed “extremists who fan
the flames of hate and division” by producing content in mainstream and social media by declaring it
freedom of speech and by providing it “fake constitutional cover” from the platform of United Nations.
7. Obama and his speech writers don’t know the difference between “freedom of speech” and “freedom
to first hurt and then to provoke” more than a billion people across the globe. This is what scholars
define as diplomacy, military strategists call Psy-Op backed Information Warfare through mainstream
and social media and knowledgeable people call “Divide and Rule.” Obama and his speech writers have
deliberately thrown the ball in the court of Muslims in America and rest of the world to invoke that part
of the First Amendment that provides an option in a situation like this for the exercise of the right to
petition government for redress of grievances and to make a complaint to, or seek the assistance of,
one's government, without fear of punishment or reprisals. And if the government fails to address the
matter judiciously as Obama has convincingly demonstrated through his UN speech then there is no
option left but to take the matter to court for appropriate judicious interpretation of the First Amendment
and requesting his disqualification for participation in coming elections on provoking and fanning religious
hatred and hatred against America and Americans across the globe.
Another interesting part of Obama’s speech is his attempt to elevate his personal stature to the level of
Prophets and great leaders by saying, “as President of our country and Commander-in-Chief of our
military, I accept that people are going to call me awful things every day and I will always defend their
right to do so.” Does it provide an excuse to endorse a heinous crime by giving it constitutional cover for
the continuation of maligning a personality that has earned the accolades of non-Muslim leaders
representing almost all religions, scholars and authors who themselves have been globally
acknowledged as towering personalities, like George Bernard Shaw, Michael H. Hart, Lamartine, Diwan
Chand Sharma, Edward Gibon, Simon Ockley, Sarojini Naidu, Prof. Hurgronje, Mahatma Gandhi, and
Thomas Carlyle. The list will not come to an end. Can Obama expect a word of praise from personalities
of this stature?
After going through all the pain in reading an externally imposed speech that Obama only delivered
what does Jennifer Rubin expect from Obama in Right Turn’s concluding paragraph? “The president’s
policy is in deep disarray because his thinking is deeply misguided. When at the U.N., it would be
8. appropriate for the president to say clearly and without caveats that the U.S. does not label obnoxious
speech ‘slander’ nor apologize for it. It defends liberty. We are faced with a segment of Islamic
extremists who are offended by the idea of freedom. They must be defeated, and the West must be
defended. Unfortunately, this president will never be so clear. And his policy will forever be a muddled
failure.” Here Jennifer Rubin declares war against Muslims calling them extremists who according to her
are offended by the idea of freedom. Does she know the meaning of FREEDOM and its UNBIASED USE!
Can anyone ask Obama and Jennifer Rubin which Muslims did they refer to? Where are they? The
people on the street she referred to as Muslims didn’t know the meaning of Islam. They were political
workers of leaderless parties who in connivance with irresponsible media infuriated them to come out in
the streets and provide footage for references that became part of Obama’s speech. Wasn’t it all staged
by Psy-War assets in Pakistan? One can not expect a straight answer to a very simple question from
those who, in this age of religious convergence and convergence of science and religion, do not have the
ability to come out of the unfortunate and regrettable eras of “crusades” and “Holocaust.” It is ironic
that Muslims and non-Muslims of today do not realize that they are living in a world that has left the era
of crusades and Holocaust far behind. This is an era of global brotherhood based on love for all, hate for
none. The following message that the people around the world expected from a world leader
unfortunately remained undelivered thanks to selective sense of religious toleration and moderation.
“Once, we convince ourselves to admit that we
are “Members of a Single Family” created by
the Only Creator through Adam and Eve, no
matter where on earth we live, no matter what
is the color of our skin, no matter which
language we speak, no matter which religious
faith or the ideology we follow, only then we
will realize how difficult it is to hate or hurt a
member of our own family.”
What is the logical way out of religious hatred syndrome?
STOP DISCUSSING THE RELIGIOUS DIFFERENCES, FOCUS ON SIMILARITIES AND TREAT EVERYONE AS A
FELLOW HUMAN GENUINELY DESERVING EACH OTHER'S RESPECT.
