According to the head of NASA, Barack Obama’s “foremost” directive to the space agency is to “improve relations with the Muslim world.” [link]
Yes, you read that correctly. In fact, none of Obama’s directives to the head of the largest space agency in the world has anything to do with space at all.
When I read this story on FOX News over the weekend, I thought it was a joke! As you can imagine, the Internet was in an uproar over the weekend when this story was published online.
NASA Administrator Charles Bolden was in the middle east last month to mark the 1st anniversary of Obama’s speech to the Muslim world. While in Cairo, Bolden sat down for an interview with Al Jazeera media agency.
He told Al Jazeera that the space agency’s biggest mission was to “find a way to reach out to the Muslim world” to “make them feel good about their historic contribution to science … and math and engineering,”
What historic contributions have the Muslims made to science, math and engineering? And why should American tax dollars be spent on making them “feel good” when they are over there stoning women and cutting children’s hands off?
I realize that Obama is the first Muslim president of the U.S., but has he forgotten that he is the president of the United States and not of the Muslim world?
When the history books are rewritten to reflect Obama’s one term in office, he will prove to be an even bigger narcissist and socialist than Adolf hitler.
