Gaddafi calls Obama a Muslim and a friend. I don't know about you, but doesn't that sound a little scary?

Libyan leader praises US president: 'He is of Muslim descent, his policy should be supported, as he now leans towards peace'

 Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi considers the US president a blessing to the Muslim world. In a speech published in London-based al-Hayat newspaper on Saturday, Gaddafi praised Barack Obama, called him a "friend" and said there is no longer any dispute between his country and the US.

Speaking in the Libyan city of Sirt at an event marking the 24th anniversary of an American attack on Libya, he said, "At the time, we were the target of the American cannon, the American navy challenged us in the gulf of Sirt and attacked us all along Libya's shores. America tested Libya, and the Libyan people resisted the large country, but today, thank God, the difference is great."

He said, "Now, ruling America is a black man from our continent, an African from Arab descent, from Muslim descent, and this is something we never imagined – that from Reagan we would get to Barakeh Obama."

What do you think of these recent comments? Will Obama correct him and show his HI birth certificate to prove he's American?

Despite the warm sentiments towards the American leader, he stressed, "The Arabs hate America, there is no doubt. There is not an Arab that loves America, and even the leaders who the United States considers allies or friends – hate it. The external love is merely hypocrisy or pragmatism. The reason for this is clear – Palestine." 

Well, at least he's being honest. Palestine? There is no Palestine. If the Arabs gave a crap about those people, they would accept them into their countries but, they don't. Why would that be?
