While maintaining an ironclad commitment to Israel’s security, Barack Obama says he understood why a top Hamas adviser voiced support for his presidential bid.
“It’s conceivable that there are those in the Arab world who say to themselves, ‘This is a guy who spent some time in the Muslim world, has a middle name of Hussein and appears more worldly and has called for talks with people, and so he’s not going to be engaging in the same sort of cowboy diplomacy as George Bush,’” Obama said in an interview with The Atlantic.
“That’s a perfectly legitimate perception as long as they’re not confused about my unyielding support for Israel’s security,” Obama said.
If Obama admits that Hamas prefers him, what was this all about?
I'm sure they prefer him because he's 'worldly'? Riiight. That's the reason.
Note to Barry: Living in a foreign country between the ages of six and ten does not qualify you as 'worldly'.
