I'm sure Muslims feel the same way, regardless of what the Zionist War Press of AmeriKa claims.
"White House reaches out to Muslim world using new tone; Emphasis placed on business, less on counterterror" by Matt Apuzzo, Associated Press | April 8, 2010
WASHINGTON — Less talk about “Islamic radicalism’’ and a lot more about doing business.

Then why is Gates threatening them with an attack, and why is Obama carving out a nuclear exception for them?
In the year since President Obama pledged a new beginning in the relationship with the Muslim world, the White House has begun to change the US focus.
Until we stop being slaves to Israel and repeating their propaganda this is nothing but MSM BS!
Terrorism still dominates US security concerns, but the White House believes it does not have to dominate the conversation. Since Obama’s speech in Cairo last year, the White House has tried to talk more about health care, science, and education. It is a strategy based on the belief that the prior administration viewed the world through the lens of terrorism. And when it talked to Muslim nations, it was all about winning the war of ideas.
When the bombs stop falling I will take this seriously; until then, pass the salt shaker.
“You take a country where the overwhelming majority are not going to become terrorists, and you go in and say, ‘We’re building you a hospital so you don’t become terrorists.’ That doesn’t make much sense,’’ says National Security Council staff member Pradeep Ramamurthy.
Is that why no hospitals are being built in AmeriKa?
Ramamurthy runs the administration’s Global Engagement Directorate, a four-person team that Obama launched last May with little fanfare and a vague mission to use diplomacy and outreach “in pursuit of a host of national security objectives.’’ The division has not only helped change the vocabulary of fighting terrorism but has shaped the way the country invests in Muslim businesses, studies global warming, supports scientific research, and combats polio.
Anyone ever tell them actions mean more than words?
The bombs are still falling and the troops still flowing, right?
And toss the whole globalist agenda at 'em at the same time!
Also, Obama advisers who are rewriting a document spelling out the country’s national security strategy plan to leave out references to “Islamic radicalism,’’ counterterrorism officials said. They spoke on condition of anonymity because the document is still being written. Currently, the document declares: “The struggle against militant Islamic radicalism is the great ideological conflict of the early years of the 21st century.’’
The WORD GAMES MEAN NOTHING as long as the WARS CONTINUE, period!!!
Ramamurthy’s team is reaching out in a variety of ways. Before diplomats go abroad, they hear from him or his deputy, Jenny Urizar. When officials from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration returned from Indonesia, the NSC got a rundown about research opportunities on global warming.
Well, something is stinking.
Ramamurthy maintains a database of interviews conducted by 50 US embassies worldwide.
This government and their damn databases.
And business leaders from more than 40 countries head to Washington this month for an “entrepreneurship summit’’ for Muslim businesses. “Do you want to think about the US as the nation that fights terrorism or the nation you want to do business with?’’ Ramamurthy said.
You reap what you sow, and sleep in the bed you made for yourself, AmeriKa.
Many international Muslim leaders have praised the new tone, because it makes it politically easier for them to cooperate with the United States. “It’s also a clear indication of President Obama’s substantial understanding of the intricacies of Muslim politics,’’ Jordanian lawmaker Hamada Faraaneh said.
Translation: Our authoritarian allies will grasp any fart mist they can to suck AmriKan cheek.
Yesterday, Iraqi government spokesman Ali al-Dabbagh spoke of indications that the Obama administration would keep religious rhetoric out of its strategy. “It is a good message of assurance, and differs from the former American administration’s position on this matter, which showed no real understanding of Islamic countries,’’ Dabbagh said. “This decision by Obama will help to reform the image Muslims have of America.’’

Yeah, the Muslims know that, too, despite the Zionist propaganda we are fed here in AmeriKa.
Some other eyes have been opened as well:
"Europe’s honeymoon with Obama is over" by H.D.S. Greenway | April 6, 2010
American one ended months ago as well.
Having fallen head over heals for Barack Obama, Europe is now feeling jilted....
In Britain, a parliamentary foreign affairs committee recently warned that Prime Minister Tony Blair’s eagerness to join Bush in attacking Iraq had hurt Britain’s standing in the world....
The “special relationship’’ that Franklin Roosevelt formed with Churchill against Hitler was tested in 1956 when President Eisenhower told Britain, France and Israel to stop their invasion of Egypt and restore the status quo ante. While France took home the message that the United States could not be trusted, the British decided never again to let their foreign policy drift too far from that of the United States.
That was before Israel took total control of the AmeriKan government.
Britain did not send troops to Indochina as the Americans would have liked, and Charles de Gaulle warned Washington that they were headed towards the same defeat as had the French. But Blair’s decision to back Bush in Iraq still rankles.
The hurt feelings go deeper than the perceived sins of Blair. Obama has been criticized for returning the borrowed bust of Churchill that Bush had displayed in the Oval Office. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was criticized for reiterating what has been American policy since 1948: that the United States hopes Britain and Argentina can settle their Falkland differences themselves. Ronald Reagan helped Britain in its recapture of the Falklands, but that seemed less important than the fact than some in Reagan’s cabinet had unduly worried about Latin American relations.
To an American this all seems a bit silly.
Yup. That's how I would describe this article.
For the first time in generations there is no crisis in Europe requiring America’s attention, no issue that deeply divides.
If one ignores the euro and Greek debt crisis, yeah.
Europe has troops fighting beside Americans in Afghanistan, albeit not as many as America would like. Historical and cultural ties remain strong.
But, as British author and journalist William Shawcross points out, Britons feel Obama does not sufficiently appreciate their contribution in Afghanistan. “We’ve lost a lot of people.’’ The Poles and Czechs, too, feel aggrieved that Obama withdrew a promised missile shield as a gesture to please Russia. “Obama seems kinder to his enemies than his friends,’’ Shawcross said.
The Europeans all sound like whining Israelis!
According to Francois Heisbourg of France’s Foundation for Strategic Research, the problem is that Obama has not paid enough attention to the symbolic aspects of the transatlantic relationship. He showed in Cairo, and in his speech to Iran, that he well understands the power of symbolism, but in his treatment of Europe he hasn’t demonstrated the same respect. Not showing up for the 20th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall provides an example.
I'm TIRED of IMAGERY being considered more than SUBSTANCE, aren't you?
And they wonder why we find politics to be BULLSHIT?
However, Heisbourg says all that narrative is just a proxy for the deeper worry Europeans have about their own shortcomings and “the decline of Europe.’’
So scapegoat someone else, 'eh?
It is the realization that power and wealth in the world is hurrying eastward. For the first time in centuries Europe is no longer history’s leading lady.
They were not for the last half of the last century.
They are just coming to grips with it now?
And since the Europeans are feeling picked on by Obama, they have to pick on someone else.
You know, like something a BULLY would do!
"Bans on Muslim garb show shift in attitudes; But trend worries some Europeans" by Robert Wielaard, Associated Press | April 18, 2010
ANTWERP, Belgium — Chances of seeing a burqa in Belgium are only a little better than spotting a liquor shop in Saudi Arabia. Now Belgium soon may be the first European nation to outlaw the burqa and other Islamic garments that completely hide a woman’s body and face.

Yeah, the whole society will fall apart because of a piece of cloth.
Why don't you just throw the towel in then, western nations, 'cause you are done.
Neighboring France and the Netherlands may also outlaw attire that is viewed by many in Western European societies as demeaning to women. It also is considered a gateway to radical Islam, a fear that is stoking right-wing sentiment across the continent.
Yeah, the worldwide Zionist MSM has nothing to do with that.

Wow, I don't think I've EVER SEEN SUCH HATE and PERSECUTION directed at a group of people in my whole life!!!
“There is all-party public support for this,’’ says Leen Dierick, a conservative member of the Belgian Parliament’s Interior Affairs committee that unanimously backed the proposed ban March 31. The initiative is expected become law in July and would apply to all public places, including streets.
Yes, it is OKAY to be PREJUDICED against MUSLIMS in tolerant, open-minded Europe!
Concerns that visible signs of Islam erode national identity are combining with complaints that immigrants are stealing jobs during the economic slump, deepening a sense of unease in many European countries, small and large alike, over the role of Muslims in society.
That is NOT a MUSLIM-CREATED PROBLEM because WE HAVE FLOODS of Hispanics pouring over our southern border -- and their heritages and cultures are celebrated in huge marches and rallies.
Hey, different strokes for different folks.
Threats against cartoonists and artists over depictions of the Prophet Mohammed have also raised fears that Islam is not compatible with Western values of freedom of speech.

Swiss voters have voted to ban the construction of minarets.

In recent years, both mosque and minaret construction projects in many European countries, including Sweden, France, Italy, Austria, Greece, Germany, and Slovenia have generated protests, some of them violent.
Wow, what a bunch of intolerant a**holes across the pond.
Or are their governments just under the control of Zionists?
President Nicolas Sarkozy of France favors a ban on burqas and other garments that fully cover the face, saying veils compromise women’s dignity. A burqa covers the entire body except for the eyes.
Of course, DROPPING BOMBS on them is LIBERATION!

Unlike the Belgians or the Dutch — who see a clear and straightforward public security issue — the French are struggling with the constitutionality of outlawing a religious dress code.
“The point is public security, the need to show one’s face in public,’’ Dierick said. “Not religious freedom.’’ Until now, it has been up to city governments in Belgium to crack down on burqa-style outfits, but enforcement has been patchy.
The proposed Belgian ban underscores how populist politicians in Europe are affecting policies toward immigrants and minorities, especially Muslims. Lawmaker Filip Dewinter says mainstream politicians back a ban on burqa-type attire for fear of losing more ground to his far-right Flemish Interest party — a fringe factor for 15 years but that today holds 17 of the 150 parliamentary seats.
But if a racist fringe group rules a criminal nation off the shores of the eastern Mediterranean, that's okay.
Umar Mirza, a 22-year-old student and editor of the Dutch Muslim website “We’re Staying Here’’ says sentiment toward Muslims and immigrants began to harden in the Netherlands 10 years ago. “People my age have not known anything else,’’ he said, adding the prevailing view of Muslims “has gotten much harder and sharper and less targeted at solutions.’’
Just about the time of 9/11 and the "War on Terror."
Interesting "coincidence," no?

So where in the world can Muslims go?
They need to find a land without people for people without a land, huh, readers?
