NEWS RELEASE: FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Bruce Hawkins June 17, 2008 (202) 465-7192 bruce@exposeobama.com Malik Obama Confirms His Half-Brother Barack Grew Up Muslim Washington, DC – On June 11 of this month ExposeObama.com, a project of the National Campaign Fund, began airing a television ad challenging Barack Obama with the question, “Was He Muslim?” The ad almost immediately went viral over the internet and was combined with a Fox News and CNN network cable buy in Michigan. Shortly thereafter Barack Obama created a website page called “Behind the Smears” to divert attention from ExposeObama.com’s legitimate issues, and reaffirming his claim that he was never a Muslim. According to Floyd Brown, of ExposeObama.com, “Malik Obama, Barack’s half brother, confirms that Barack grew up Muslim.” None of that has stopped Obama’s attacks on Brown. “Obama is a hypocrite,” said Brown, “he uses innuendo in his attacks on me, and then accuses me of using innuendo on him when we ask the tough questions that make him uncomfortable.” According to the Israel Insider, "Barack Obama's half brother Malik said Thursday that if elected his brother will be a good president for the Jewish people, despite his Muslim background." Additionally the Israel Insider reported that, “Apparently the Obamas of Kenya have been reading those scurrilous emails to which Barack likes to refer, because they have no doubt -- contrary to the claims of the Obama campaign, that the presidential candidate was raised a Moslem.” See the article and two photos of Malik and Barack Obama in Kenyan Muslim traditional dress at, web.israelinsider.com. In a New York Times, March 6, 2007, column, Nicholas Kristof, who had a wide-ranging interview with Obama, wrote: Mr. Obama recalled the opening lines of the Arabic call to prayer, reciting them with a first-rate accent. In a remark that seemed delightfully uncalculated (it’ll give Alabama voters heart attacks), Mr. Obama described the call to prayer as “one of the prettiest sounds on Earth at sunset.” | ||||||||||||
