Muslims worldwide regard Obama as one of them!!!

To me, the fact that Muslims worldwide are rooting for Obama to become the US President is a sure sign that Muslims regard him a Muslim no matter what Obama or anybody else says otherwise.

His father and step father were Muslims( his mother married two Muslims even though claims of her being an atheist abound but it looks more like a case of her tilting towards Islam), he spent his childhood in Indonesia going to mosques and yet Obama claims that it does not mean anything and he is not a Muslim or influenced by Islam. One wonders if that is possible. He certainly has Islam outlook no matter what he says.

In the same vein, one can question his reasons for opposing the Iraq war. It was not his "judgement" that made him oppose the war, it was the Muslim influence from his upbringing that told him to oppose the war on Muslims. No Muslim has ever come out in favor of attacking a Muslim nation by infidels.

Not a single Muslim in USA was in favor attacking Iraq regardless of the fact that a monster was ruling Iraq and had committed atrocities and genocide of Iraqi Kurds by attacking them with poison gas, a weapon of mass destruction. For Muslims this was only a trivial matter in comparison to the attack by an infidel nation on a Muslim nation to depose that monster. So I am not surprised that Obama opposed Iraq war because of his Muslim roots and then he claims it was because of his "judgement". Yeah sure

There is no doubt about influence of Islam on Obama's psyche and early development
