The Real Meaning of the Cairo Speech

Today's speech by Obama in Cairo was simply placating Muslims. He equated the Bible to the Koran. There is no equivalence. If the Bible is true, the Koran isn't. If the Koran is true, the Bible isn't. Obama makes a point of going to Saudi Arabia because it is the birthplace of Islam, but does not go the birthplace of Israel. Israel & Christianity have been here much longer than Islam, yet he gives preference to Islam.

Obama: "ANY WORLD ORDER THAT ELEVATES ONE NATION OVER ANOTHER WILL FAIL..."

Consider the following from the Screwtape Letters by C.S. Lewis:

As the devil Screwtape said in Screwtape Proposes a Toast: "You remember how one of the Greek Dictators (they called them 'tyrants' then) sent an envoy to another Dictator to ask his advice about the principles of government. The second Dictator led the envoy into a field of grain, and there he snicked off with his cane the top of every stalk that rose an inch or so above the general level. The moral was plain. Allow no preeminence among your subjects. Let no man live who is wiser or better or more famous or even handsomer than the mass. Cut them all down to a level: all slaves, all ciphers, all nobodies. All equals. Thus Tyrants could practise, in a sense, 'democracy.' But now 'democracy' can do the same work without any tyranny other than her own. No one need now go through the field with a cane. The little stalks will now of themselves bite the tops off the big ones. The big ones are beginning to bite off their own in their desire to Be Like Stalks."

This is where Obama is leading us. We need to wake up and fight!
