Obama: Call to Islamic prayer is “one of the prettiest sounds on Earth at sunset.”

Obama in his own words: Call to Islamic prayer (Salat) is “one of the prettiest sounds on Earth at sunset.”

I once got in trouble for making faces during Koran study classes in my elementary school, but a president is less likely to stereotype Muslims as fanatics — and more likely to be aware of their nationalism — if he once studied the Koran with them.

Mr. Obama recalled the opening lines of the Arabic call to prayer, reciting them with a first-rate accent. In a remark that seemed delightfully uncalculated (it’ll give Alabama voters heart attacks), Mr. Obama described the call to prayer as “one of the prettiest sounds on Earth at sunset.”

If it’s a pretty sound at sunset, it can be a very annoying cacaphony the other four times per day the muezzin’s call issues. When some PC cities have permitted these to be sounded through loudspeakers, it has been an infringement on the rights of non-Muslim.

Hamas endorses Barack Obama. Ahmed Yousuf, the political advisor for Hamas says, they hope Obama wins.

Jimmy Carter meets with Hamas. Jimmy Carter wants Barack Obama. Hamas is published in Barack Obama’s church bulletin. Obama worked with Rashid Khalidi a member of the PLO(Palestinian Liberation Organization)–a man who held fundraisers for Barack Obama–who also got the Iranian President to visit NYC–the same Iranian President who funds Hamas and Hezbollah. Obama regularly went to Arafat fundraisers and other pro-Palestine fundraisers and events. Obama and Bill Ayers raised money for Rashid Khalidi’s AAAN (Arab American Action Network) that is fiercely Pro-Palestine. Obama states in his book that he will side with the Muslims if the political wind shifts in the wrong direction. Obama says there is no more suffering a people than Palestinians. Obama says he would meet with Iranian president without pre-conditions and we know that he funds Palestinian terrorists.

HELLO.

Barack Obama is Pro-Palestine and anti-Israel. Why isn’t this important considering America’s BIG ally is ISRAEL.

BTW, Michelle Obama went to a Rashid Khalidi family wedding a few months ago and Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dorhn were also guests.

Yeah, a real pretty sound…

like fingernails dragged down a chalk board!

I’d rather hear the old 1950’s Phillip Morris cigarette commercial, which featured the midget page boy, “Johnny” screaming in his high pitch voice… “Call for Phillip Morris!”…and have it play on a continuous loop ad nauseum.

Yes, Obama is right. It’s really the most beautiful voice one can listen to. One should just open his heart to Quran and Azan to ejoy their beauty.
Thank You obama. You are really a man.
