Obama: My Pastor Sounds Like A Jihadist

A brilliant observation from Robert Spencer at Jihad Watch:


Here is a paragraph from Obama's speech on Jeremiah Wright today (thanks to James):

But the remarks that have caused this recent firestorm weren’t simply
controversial. They weren’t simply a religious leader’s effort to speak out
against perceived injustice. Instead, they expressed a profoundly distorted view
of this country – a view that sees white racism as endemic, and that elevates
what is wrong with America above all that we know is right with America; a view
that sees the conflicts in the Middle East as rooted primarily in the actions of
stalwart allies like Israel, instead of emanating from the perverse and hateful
ideologies of radical Islam.

So it's not all about Israel, and there are perverse and hateful Islamic ideologies that are creating this present conflict.
