No, he didn't "create" them, but there's little doubt that he supported the so-called "Arab Spring" 100%, even though there was plenty of evidence that this was only a front for the Muslim Brotherhood.

Amazing the extent some will go to to defend the hagarenes. Maybe this will change your mind.

To think that 8 years ago someone on this Forum took me to task for remarking about Islam in Iraq as I saw it. Maybe by now they have a better picture.

Is this image the real thing? Where did you find it?
Is this story a hoax or not?

The Socialist leaning media in this country and the Democrats would have you believe that the poor muslims are just misunderstood. They downplay and deny every atrocity committed by the Hagarenes. No, this is not a hoax. This is a screen capture monitored by Memri TV (http://www.memritv.org/content/en/about.htm)
Khawaaja Obama, Nancy Pelosi and ilk openly supported the overthrow of Mr Qaddafi in Libya. Now, Qaddafi was a dog, but a dog on a chain. Mr Obama killed the dog and replaced him with a pack of freely roaming rabid wolves in the form of the radical islamists now running Libya. Can you spell Al-Qaeda? And again in Egypt , they supported the overthrow of Mubarek and replacing him with the radical islamist Muslim Brotherhood. And now the Comrade in Chief is openly supporting the islamists trying to overthrow the last country in the Middle East where Christians are protected, Syria. Thank God for Mr Putin and Russia standing up for the Syrian Christians by supporting the Syrian Government.
Now thanks to the ignorant Washington Elites, Coptic Christians are being slaughtered in Egypt, and are fleeing in droves, over 100,000 since March. http://www.christiannewstoday.com/Christian_News_Report_900171.html

In Libya, Orthodox Churches are now being attacked and burned, http://theorthodoxchurch.info/blog/news/2012/09/christians-under-fire-in-libya/.

If Mr Osama has his way, there will not be a Christian left alive in the Middle East within 5 years.

America used to wear the white cowboy hat on the international scene. Not any more. It appears that the white cowboy hat has been replaced by a white Ushanka, at least as far as standing up for Christianity is concerned. Remember this picture when you vote on Tuesday.

By the way, has anyone heard one word mentioned in our "free" press or on televised media about the new Golgotha of Christians in the Middle East????

Hmmmm.....

Glory be to Jesus Christ!!

Alexandr kindly sent me the link to the MEMRI TV photo posted in this thread. While I do not support his taking a personal jab at our current president with the names he has posted, I do think it important that Christians know of the persecution that has begun and continues to our brethren in that region--a persecution that our media has ignored. I only wonder what would be the reaction in this country if this image were shown on the nightly news tomorrow evening.

That said, I believe that it may be soon time to close this thread, though it has been very educational to learn what Paul harvey used to call "the rest of the story."
