Osama Bin Ladin means terrorist.

Saddam Hussein means dictator, killer of his own people.

Seems those ancient names have lost their meaning.

No wonder Barrack Hussein Obama is having an identity crisis.

And obama means.....Obama is surname based on a given name from the Dholuo language spoken by the Luo people of Kenya. It is based on the verb "bam" meaning "bent", and probably refers either to an infant's arm or leg looking bent just after birth, or to the birth itself having been in the breech position.

Maybe someone in Kenya witnessed the birth?
