[Whitehouse] Reaching out to Muslims (karma: 3)  en>fr fr>en

The United States, is trying hard to reach out to these countries and it has shown its sensitivity to the needs of the Muslims.

“During Ramadan, the White House would host breaking of fast events. There would be an imam to lead the prayers, besides a prayer room for the Muslim ambassadors,” said Rajmah.

THE briefing came swiftly, right after George W. Bush announced that he would appoint a special envoy to the Organisation of the Islamic Conference (OIC).

Karen Hughes, Under-Secretary for Public Diplomacy and Public Affairs, appeared at the Washington Foreign Press Centre to explain the US efforts to reach out to the Muslim world...

Citing a project called Citizen Dialogue, she said American citizens who were Muslims were sent out to engage in dialogue with communities around the world...

Also, for the first time, Hughes said, the US administration had hired people to engage blogs in Arabic...

Hughes kept stressing on interfaith dialogues, claiming that Americans have taken it upon themselves to try to learn more about Islam in the aftermath of Sept 11.

She spoke of being touched by a Muslim woman who came to her church and stories about Christians and Jewish colleagues who went to a mosque.

On the OIC, Hughes commended secretary-general Ekmeleddin Ihsanoglu for being a strong voice for reason and tolerance.

“Under his leadership, the OIC has sponsored an international conference on interfaith dialogue in the United Kingdom and it will host a similar conference at Georgetown University here this fall,” she said.

But how sincere is the US government in wanting to reach out to Muslim nations?

Rajmah Hussain, who has met Bush a number of times in her capacity as Malaysia’s Ambassador to the United States, said:

“During Ramadan, the White House would host breaking of fast events. There would be an imam to lead the prayers, besides a prayer room for the Muslim ambassadors,”...

Paroles de Les Bobos
On les appelle bourgeois bohêmes
Ou bien bobos pour les intimes
Dans les chanson d'Vincent Delerm
On les retrouve à chaque rime
Ils sont une nouvelle classe
Après les bourges et les prolos
Pas loin des beaufs, quoique plus classe
Je vais vous en dresser le tableau
Sont un peu artistes c’est déjà ça
Mais leur passion c'est leur boulot
Dans l’informatique, les médias
Sont fier d'payer beaucoup d'impôts

Les bobos, les bobos
Les bobos, les bobos

Ils vivent dans les beaux quartiers
ou en banlieue mais dans un loft
Ateliers d’artistes branchés,
Bien plus tendance que l'avenue Foch
ont des enfants bien élevés,
qui ont lu le Petit Prince à 6 ans
Qui vont dans des écoles privées
Privées de racaille, je me comprends

ils fument un joint de temps en temps,
font leurs courses dans les marchés bios
Roulent en 4x4, mais l’plus souvent,
préfèrent s’déplacer à vélo

Les bobos, les bobos
Les bobos, les bobos

Ils lisent Houellebecq ou philippe Djian,les Inrocks et Télérama,
Leur livre de chevet c’est surand
Près du catalogue Ikea.
Ils aiment les restos japonais et le cinéma coréen
passent leurs vacances au cap Ferret
La côte d'azur, franchement ça craint
Ils regardent surtout ARTE
Canal plus, c’est pour les blaireaux
Sauf pour les matchs du PSG
et d’temps en temps un p'tit porno

Les bobos, les bobos
Les bobos, les bobos

Ils écoutent sur leur chaîne hi fi
France-info toute la journée
Alain Bashung Françoise Hardy
Et forcement Gérard Manset
Ils aiment Desproges sans même savoir
que Desproges les détestait
Bedos et Jean Marie Bigard,
même s’ils ont honte de l’avouer
Ils aiment Jack Lang et Sarkozy
Mais votent toujours Ecolo
Ils adorent le Maire de Paris,
Ardisson et son pote Marco

Les bobos, les bobos
Les bobos, les bobos

La femme se fringue chez Diesel
Et l'homme a des prix chez Kenzo
Pour leur cachemire toujours nickel
Zadig & Voltaire je dis bravo
Ils fréquentent beaucoup les musées,
les galeries d'art, les vieux bistrots
boivent de la manzana glacée en écoutant Manu chao
Ma plume est un peu assassine
Pour ces gens que je n'aime pas trop
par certains côtés, j'imagine…
Que j'fais aussi partie du lot

Les bobos, les bobos
Les bobos, les bobos

This is one of the most cowardly acts to date by Bush. There can be no peace with Is-shit. Is-shit is in a "Conquest Islam" mode. The are not here to assimilate, they are here to annihilate that which is not moo-scum. The Quran FORBIDS moo-scums to associate on a relationship level with "infidels". What the fuck doesn't Washington understand about this. Question: Is it possible Bush has converted to the Is-shit religion? In most other areas it appears as though he has lost his fucking mind. Why not this ! Bush claims to be a "Christian". Now, that said, the Bible states that a believer in Christ, "cannot be unevenly yoked with unbelievers." End of line. The Quran disallows fellowship with Infidels. The Bible says Christ said, "what fellowship hath light with darkness". There isn't any. A nation cannot proclaim, :"One Nation Under God", and then declare, "we are partying with the Devil". Satan is the sworn enemy of Christ. Islam is the enemy of God. Allah, is not Jehovah. Read the Islamic declaration of the rise of Allah. Yet, the one Christians call God, is declared to have always existed. Jehovah had no beginning, and He has no end. Christ protected children. Mohammad fucked little girls as young as eight years old.

Now, Bush wants to build a bridge to this baby-fucking false religion. He has lost his fucking mind !Yeah, we need a rapid response Unit. One armed to the teeth to eliminate every fucking moo-scum on this planet.

Bush is cozying up to the Muzzies with the intention of setting
them loose on the Patriots who opposed his Amnesty Bill.

The only thing that Busch should be telling Muslimes is that the minute a WMD goes off in an American city we will launch a nuke that will turn Mecca into a sheet of glass. Any other attacks will result in the same for the capitals of shitslam nations throughout the globe.

I'm merely pointing out that the USA and the UK are on the same path, albeit that the UK is two steps ahead.

You're so fucking insincere. You do it to troll British FFers. If you didn't, you would have posted the US stories I have posted in the last 72 hours. After all, the US is or at least should be more important to you than the the UK.

BTW Change that fucking dhimmi bitch avatar.

doing stupid things and encouraging the subversion of western society are entirely different things. might want to research ike's true thoughts on muslims before opening your mouth.

On 5 January 1957 U.S. president Dwight D. Eisenhower addressed a joint session of Congress to warn of a grave crisis in the Middle East. The region, he said, was in danger of falling under the control of the Soviet Union, and the United States had to do all it could to help Middle Eastern nations keep their independence. Eisenhower asked Congress to pass a resolution authorizing him to pledge increased economic and military aid and even direct U.S. protection to any Middle Eastern nation willing to acknowledge the threat posed by international communism. Two months later Congress passed the requested resolution in slightly modified form. By then the policy embodied in the legislation was universally known as the Eisenhower Doctrine. The doctrine marked America's emergence as the dominant Western power in the Middle East, a role the United States continued to play long after the policy itself had been abandoned.

The immediate catalyst of the Eisenhower Doctrine was the Suez war of late 1956, in which Britain, France, and Israel had spectacularly failed to reverse Egypt's nationalization of the Suez Canal Company. As a result of this fiasco, Britain was widely regarded as having forfeited its status as the preeminent Western power in the Middle East. Eisenhower and his secretary of state, John Foster Dulles, believed that Britain's humiliation had left a "vacuum" in the region that the Soviet Union would fill unless the United States took action. One way the Soviets could conceivably fill the vacuum, though U.S. officials agreed this was improbable, was by direct military intervention in a neighboring country like Turkey or Iran. A far more likely scenario was that the Soviets would increase economic and military aid and develop closer political ties to Arab states. Already Egypt and Syria had concluded military and economic agreements with the Soviet bloc. With Britain's Arab allies now facing overwhelming political pressure to shun their discredited patron, there was a danger that other Arab countries would soon follow Egypt's and Syria's example.

Officially, then, the Eisenhower Doctrine was aimed at protecting the Middle East from Soviet encroachment; in this sense it was merely a more specific application of the general containment doctrine with which the United States had waged the Cold War for a decade. But the Eisenhower Doctrine also sought to contain the radical Arab nationalism of Egyptian president Gamal Abdel Nasser and to discredit his policy of "positive neutrality" in the Cold War, which held that Arab nations were entitled to enjoy profitable relations with both Cold War blocs. As Eisenhower and Dulles saw it, "positive neutrality" was neither. They believed that Nasser had in fact grown so hostile to the West that he had become, albeit perhaps unwittingly, a tool of Soviet expansionism. (In July 1958 Eisenhower privately remarked that Nasser "is a puppet [of the Soviets], even though he probably doesn't think so.")[1] Rather than cooperate with Egypt, as it had done until recently, the United States would now try to strengthen conservative Arab regimes—like those of Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Lebanon, and Libya—and reinforce their pro-Western tendencies. Through economic aid, military aid, and explicit guarantees of American protection, the administration hoped to encourage such governments to side openly with the West in the Cold War, thus isolating Nasser and his regional allies, among them the Syrian government and Nasserist opposition parties in other Arab countries. The administration pursued this strategy until late 1958, when it reluctantly concluded that Nasserism was too politically powerful to be successfully opposed and that the United States should instead seek an accommodation with that movement.


in other words, ike's platitutdes were designed as part of a cold war strategy to prevent the soviets from moving into the vacuum left by the brits following the cold war. promoting religious freedom as a means to contrasting the soviets and the west was designed to prevent soviet encroachments. duh. ike was a complex dude. it's hard for a simpleton to try to sum him up in a catchy phrase or two.

He may have disliked Muslims in private but he sucked up to them in public. As I said: dhimmi bitch.

His actions in 1956 make perfect sense now I'm aware of his dhimmitude.
