Melanie Phillips is, of course, correct to point out that Barack Obama’s statement that the US is one of the larger muslim countries in the world is an exaggeration – though also, I would say (though Melanie might not), an understandable one. However she then writes:
This is intriguing and I’d be interested to learn how the President might make the United States an islamic nation. Surely this was something he should have mentioned on the campaign trail? Clearly, his reticence about this confirms the seriousness of his intent. All the most dangerous plots are kept secret, dontcha know? Only the bravest and wisest can penetrate the conspiracy and sound the necessary alert.Just what planet is this US President on? Or is this not a statement but an aspiration?
UPDATE: See also Spencer Ackerman’s revelation that David Petraeus is also a super-secret muslim conspirator.
