NiceReader comment on item: Obama & American Muslims: How Different? Submitted by Mark (United States), Apr 20, 2010 at 20:36 Dr Pipes: You can say that again. Apparently, the writer is not in the same league as you - in facts. Nice piece. Nice observation. I agree. To get to the bottom of it, I think it stems from the logic that because Obama is a man of color, he is trying to be more sympathetic to Muslims, people also of color. So there was nothing special about that. So the NY Times: Please. We're supposed to get good reporting. But wait -- there's more. Last time I checked, the NY Times still seem to have military action against Iran off limits and at all costs. Terrific. Never mind extreme circumstances call for extreme measures. And never mind Obama has said nothing could have stopped the Nazis in the 40's except war. Speaking of Bush, we have to give credit where credit is due. It went to war with Sadaam Hussein, effectively preventing another Iran. The world is safer. Israel was able to breathe a sigh of relief. . And for Obama going to war in Afganistan: Good decision. Stick with it. Mark Note: Opinions expressed in comments are those of the authors alone and not necessarily those of Daniel Pipes. Original writing only, please.
