That is how Bernard Lewis terms Obama's "self criticism" - not of himself but of his country, and Lewis says it doesn't play in the Middle Eastern world as Obama thinks it does. Some of his recent autobiography "Notes on a Century is worth reading -- but I would skip the first 196 pages..

He has a good explanation of why he believes the Turks' massacre of Armenians was not "genocide' but he is far too easy on the Muslim treatment of the Jews. Read Andrew Bostom's collected reviews on Amazon and you will run into his excellent criticism of Bernard Lewis.on this subject.

But back to Obama. He has embraced the Muslim Brotherhood. Thanks to Dr. Pipes, Frank Gaffney, Robert Spencer and others, I know how bad that is for this country. That alone would make me vote for a different world view and foreign policy.
