Obama and Islamophobia

category international | politics / elections | other press author Saturday August 02, 2008 14:33author by tomeile Report this post to the editors

On his recent visit to Jordan Israel and Ramallah US presidential candidate Obama Barrack insisted that nobody in his party should wear green because of the colour’s association with Islam and Hamas. At a June campaign rally in Detroit two women wearing headscarves were told to leave the area behind the podium where Obama was speaking from so as to prevent them being framed in the same shot by cameras covering the event. A Counterpunch article by Rannie Amiri on how Barrack Obama has moved from being a victim to a perpetuator of Islamophobia.
