How would you do that? By your own description, they do nothing. And if won over would still do nothing to stop extremism.

I understand the skepticism; the jury is out and probably will be for some time. You all know I disagree with plenty that President Obama has been doing. I'm plenty critical.

I do think that he should have visited Israel on this trip, but you can't please all people at all times. We'll just have to wait and see how things unfold; hopefully for the best. I certainly hope that people aren't rooting for the whole thing to backfire; that would be counterproductive as hell.

Well Done President Obama.
Obama has now shown that America is looking forwatd and not being stagnant as it has been for quite a few years.
If anyone has a miracle cure for the problems in the Middle East, i'm sure Obama would love to hear from you, if NOT then let Back OFF Obama.

The majority 1.6 billion muslims despise the USA and all it stands for.

And this state of affairs is ok with you?

The only way one wins over Islam, is to become one of them.

Otherwise you are a pig, and deserve to die.

Does this speech mean the Great Christian Crusade to Recover the Holy Land from the Muslims and the Jews have been called off? How are we ever going to be Saved if we leave the Infidels in charge of the Sacred Places? We are running out of time. Remember the End is near and we will all be Judged.

What complete and utter nonsense.

He has mellowed out quite a bit.

People, here is the deal, the topic is...

Obama's Speech in Cairo

While I understand discussions will sway off course, lets try to keep it on the subject of his speech and not stray too far or make it personal.

Great speech, by a great man!

I did not vote for Mr. Obama and am unlikely to vote for him in the next election.
I have to admit that his speech in Cairo and his follow-up in Germany amazed me. He's got the right stuff in terms of foriegn policy. The USA is lucky that he won his party's nomination.

Thanks for a great job!
