HOLY WAR PART II: FINALISING THE CASE FOR A NON ISLAMIC NEW WORLD ORDER

Obama was enrolled – also as a Muslim, according to documents – in the Besuki Primary School, a public school in Jakarta. Indeed, in Obama's autobiography, "Dreams From My Father,"69 he acknowledged studying the Quran and describes the public school as "a Muslim school." Reports suggests that while Americans generally view Obama as having had no religion before converting at Reverend Jeremiah Wrights hands at the age of 27, Muslims the world over rarely see him as Christian but usually as either Muslim or ex-Muslim. Lee Smith of the Hudson Institute explains why: "Barack Obama's father was Muslim and therefore, according to Islamic law, so is the candidate. In spite of the Quranic verses explaining that there is no compulsion in religion, a Muslim child takes the religion of his or her father. … for Muslims around the world, non-American Muslims at any rate, they can only ever see Barack Hussein Obama as a 70 Muslim."

The president of the Islamic Society of North America, Sayyid M. Syeed, told Muslims at a conference in Houston that whether Obama wins or loses, his candidacy will reinforce that Muslim children can "become the presidents of this country."71 An Egyptian newspaper, Al-Masri al-Youm, refers to his "Muslim origins." Libyan ruler Mu‘ammar alQaddafi referred to Obama as "a Muslim" and a person with an "African and Islamic identity." One AlJazeera analysis calls him a "non-Christian man," a second refers to his "Muslim Kenyan" father, and a third, by Naseem Jamali, notes that "Obama may not want to be counted as a Muslim but Muslims are eager to count him as one of their own." Libya's strongman Muammar Khadafi gave an endorsement speech in which he called Barack Obama a "brother" and expressed his hope that he will "change America from evil to good and that America will establish relations that will serve it well with other people, especially the Arabs." He also said: “All the people in the Arab and Islamic world and in Africa applauded this man. They welcomed him and prayed for him and for his success and they may have even been involved in legitimate contribution campaigns to enable him to win the 72 American Presidency.”

Hamas has had an on-again, off-again preference for Obama, first endorsing the candidate in April 2008 when Hamas political adviser Ahmed Yousef said the Mideast terrorist group supports Obama's foreign policy positions. "We don't mind -- actually we like Mr. Obama. We hope he will [win] the election and I do believe he is like John Kennedy, great man with great principle, and he has a vision to change America to make it in a position to lead the world 73 community but not with domination and arrogance,"

Yousef told conservative radio host John Batchelor and WorldNetDaily reporter Aaron Klein. Obama adviser David Axelrod told the American Spectator the comparison to Kennedy was flattering,but that admiration of the former president was where the similarities between Obama and Hamas end. Hamas suspended its support in June 2008 when Obama made a pro-Israel speech to
