That\u2019s what we need to keep our eye on. <\/p>\n<p>FEDERER: In Islam, if your father is a Muslim, you\u2019re automatically a Muslim. Since Barack\u2019s father, stepfather, and grandfather were all Muslim, the Muslim world views him as Muslim. <strong>Mohammad allowed his warriors to say they\u2019re not Muslim to gain advantage and um, but he\u2019s uh, Islam permits you to lie to advance Islam, Saul Alinsky allows you to lie to advance your communist agenda, you can put them together. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>SHOEBAT: I came from an American mother, Obama came from an American mother. I came from a Muslim father, Obama came from a Muslim father. [\u2026] Did you know that your President knows how to do the call to the prayer in eloquent classical Arabic?
