Yesterday in India Obama was asked a simple question. What do you think about Jihad? His answer was in textbook Obama style an attempt to give a history lesson. He appeared to attempt to change the audience member's minds about what Jihad is. It seems to me that all he succeeded in doing was confusing everyone by being too vague and not getting to the point.
This is a habit Obama has. He can take a simple question and turn into a complex 15 mins answer. This accomplishes two things; it shows the questioner how intelligent he is and it allows him to leave difficult questions unanswered.
It also allows one to take sides on how to interpret his answer. If you want to be pragmatic you could assume that he's just trying to be diplomatic. However if you want to use a bit of common-sense you could assume that Obama in some strange way actually supports Jihad. He just doesn't support the death that results from it. One could also assume if you want to take it even further is that he's adopted a Islamic mentality....that this is all Allah's will and basically "Shit Happens". This allows him to be for something and not be blamed for facilitating it.
Obama never wants to take sides on important issues. He almost always chooses the wrong side it seems.
Another note: Barrack....stop talking about Gandi. India has moved on. Every time you mention him...which is often...you show how little you understand about modern day India.
