Decade-old photo of Obama with Louis Farrakhan surfaces

[Swordsmyth]

A photo has emerged of then-Sen. Barack Obama standing with Louis Farrakhan, leader of the controversial Nation of Islam, during a 2005 Congressional Black Caucus meeting on Capitol Hill.

Photographer Askia Muhammad told the Trice Edney News Wire that he kept the image secret because he believed it could have harmed Obama’s chances of becoming president. It was first published Saturday (http://www.northstarnewstoday.com/history/10867/) on northstarnewstoday.com.
"I gave the picture up at the time and basically swore secrecy," Muhammad said in an interview with the news wire. "But after the nomination was secured and all the way up until the inauguration; then for eight years after he was president, it was kept under cover."
Talking Points Memo talked with Muhammad on Thursday. (https://talkingpointsmemo.com/livewire/photo-of-obama-louis-farrakhan-to-be-released) He told TPM that a "staff member" for the caucus contacted him "sort of in a panic" after he took the photo.
"I sort of understood what was going on," Muhammad told TPM. "I promised and made arrangements to give the picture to Leonard Farrakhan," the minister’s son-in-law and chief of staff.

Muhammad said he gave away "the disk" from his camera but "copied the photograph from that day onto a file" on his computer.

O'Bummer isn't muslim, of that there is no manner of doubt, no probable possible shadow of doubt whatever. :rolleyes:

Then Obama went on to have Farrakhans good friend qaddafi wiped from power, killed and his nation destroyed.

[Raginfridus]

Obama, like Trump now, stood for nothing. I doubt if he has any friends, any principles, or opinions. Any acquaintance he had with NOI was cosmetic.

Mainstream Islam doesn't even consider nation of Islam members to be Muslims. But yeah, the president of the US who does exactly 0 Muslim things and killed thousands of Muslims is definitely Muslim.

But you don't think Obama is Muslim because the evidence leads you there. You start with Obama=Muslim as premise and try to mold reality to fit your nonsensical narrative

Lol.. like in many things, Obama is bad at being a Muslim as well.

She is a Muslim and she was part of trying to destroy this country. Open your eyes.

When someone yells that there is a fire, you would expect that the person at least saw or smelled smoke. You unequivocally believe there is fire without having observed neither fire nor smoke. So far your best evidence is Obama wearing muslim-looking clothes on his trip to kenya and his virtue signaling, which was also done by George W Bush ("Islam is peace.") So, essentially... no evidence at all. It takes about the same amount of evidence for you to believe in your genocidal religion too, right? Poor, brainwashed soul.

I hope you are just trolling or something. If you actually believe the stuff you are posting you are seriously retarded.

She lived in Iran from ages 0-7 in the 50's and 60's. Back then, Iran was more secular than parts of the US are today. She was born there to African American parents. She's not muslim. But you discredit facts based solely on their sources and nothing more. You are not a serious person

Honestly, I’m just riling you up since you have been dropping me negative reps out of the blue. Lol. It’s funny to see. Btw, have we met?

With regards to Obama, he is as much a Christian as you are which obvoiusly is not saying much for either of you.

As far as I see it, he is much more an atheistic wolf in sheeps clothing whose job was to destroy the sovereignty of this nation, with the help and advice of his Muslim friends. If you haven’t realized that, then that’s your problem.

Actually, she at least was a Muslim (probably more atheist now) and a communist and a Muslim Brotherhood sympathizer. Sorry you have to learn that so late in the game.

Btw, are you an atheist? You seem to defend them a lot.

Of course I'm atheist. Sorry you have to learn that so late in the game. That supposed quote you posted of hers looks like it was written by an 8th grader. Do you actually believe that was written by her? It was clearly written by someone else to manufacture a false narrative. Any actual proof of her being muslim or muslim brotherhood sympathizer, or do you believe anything and everything that fits your world view, regardless of evidence?

Not saying it makes Obama a muslim, yet muslims do kill other muslims.

True, but what I primarily meant was that Obama hasn't aligned himself with any single muslim faction. With all the claims of Iranian muslims being important advisers to Obama/Hillary, you would maybe expect that they would align themselves with shia groups. Yet Iran, Hezbollah, Syria, and Yemen Houthis are the primary enemies of the US, much moreso than sunni groups/countries. But that's probably putting too much thought into it. People like TER don't know the difference between shia and sunni anyways

Thankfully we have you here to correct us simple minded folk.

My inferior understanding is that Sunni people are bright, like the sun, spreading their rays of happiness all over the Middle East and now in Europe, and the Shia have pets which grow grass out of their backs. Amirite?

Here is one of the pets: https://chia.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/Obama-Unit.jpg

This pet sent them pallets full of cash, that is, American tax dollars. He is a loyal one to them. Good boy, Hussein!

Huma is Iranian? Hadn't heard that before. Thought she was an Indian Muslim who grew up in Saudi Arabia.

[Zippyjuan]

Huma is Iranian? Hadn't heard that before. Thought she was an Indian Muslim who grew up in Saudi Arabia.

True. Born in Michigan and is of Indian heritage and did live in Saudi Arabia. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Huma_Abedin


Abedin was born on July 28, 1976,[9] in Kalamazoo, Michigan, to Syed Zainul Abedin (1928–93) and Saleha Mahmood Abedin.[5][10] Abedin is of Indian descent, and has a sister and a brother.[11]

At the age of two, Abedin moved with her family to Jeddah (Saudi Arabia), where she was raised and lived until returning to the United States for college.[5][10] Abedin traveled frequently during her childhood and teenage years, and attended a British girls' school.[10]

Both of her parents were educators. Her father, born in New Delhi (India) on April 2, 1928,[12] was an Islamic and Middle Eastern scholar of Indian descent, who received his PhD from the University of Pennsylvania, and then in 1978 founded the Institute of Muslim Minority Affairs, an organization devoted to the study of Muslim communities in non-Muslim societies around the world. In 1979, he founded the Journal of Muslim Minority Affairs,[13] which his wife took over after his death; his daughter Huma was listed as an associate editor from 1996–2008. Her mother, also born in colonial India (now Pakistan after the 1947 British Partition), also received her PhD from the University of Pennsylvania, and is currently an associate professor of sociology and dean at Dar Al-Hekma College in Jeddah

Images of multiple congressional Democrats hugging, embracing and coordinating with Louis Farrakhan have surfaced, just shortly after a never-before-seen, 2005 photo of Barack Obama and Louis Farrakhan was released to the public.
The Obama picture was kept a secret by the photographer who took it because he believed it would hurt the future president’s “political career.” (RELATED: Photos Released Of Obama Smiling With Black Nationalist Hate Group Leader Louis Farrakhan) (http://dailycaller.com/2018/01/25/photo-obama-louis-farrakhan/)

The footage was brought to light by columnist Jeryl Bier. Bier has been tweeting (https://twitter.com/JerylBier/status/958146159670890496) the following images and video of the encounter.
