Thousands of members of Hizbut Tahrir were outside the U.S. Embassy in Jakarta Sunday, protesting the scheduled visit of President Barack Obama to the nation he lived in for several years as a child. Hizbut Tahrir is described by the Associated Press as a “hardline Muslim group.”
AFP reports that around 2,500 protesters shouted “Reject Obama” and “America is Terrorist” outside the US embassy while brandishing banners with slogans such as “Reject Obama, Reject Capitalism, Reject Imperialism”. AP reports that outside of Jakarta, another protest of about 800 people was held in Indonesia’s second-largest city of Surabaya.
President Obama is scheduled to attend the 18-nation East Asia Summit in Bali, where the administration has focused on the summit’s security agenda which includes halting the proliferation of nuclear weapons. AP reports that Hizbut Tahrir has accused the U.S. of having a hidden agenda to urge other countries to unite against China to guarantee U.S. domination in the South China Sea.
“We strongly oppose America and Obama coming to Indonesia,” the group’s spokesman Mujiyanto told AFP. “Obama is a murderer of our Muslim brothers in Palestine and Afghanistan, a thief of Indonesia’s natural resources, and an imperialist who seeks to take over the world and will do anything for US interests.”
Reuters video of Sunday’s protest:
AFP reports that “radical groups like Hizbut Tahrir have little popular support in the archipelago of 240 million people.”

No..they do not want Obumer ( Barak Obama) because that will be the Kenyan president of the United States. They want the Indonesian version of the president of the United States, BARRY SOETORO.

Posted on November 14, 2011 at 4:28amIndonesia = major hub of slavery and sex trafficking. Civilians are advised to maintain a high level of security awareness when travelling in Indonesia. Bombings of hotels and violent demonstrations are common. Crime is rampant and armed robbery is on the rise. Some international travelers have been poisoned.
IN OTHER WORDS: Islam breeds homicidal wacked out nutjobs by the thousands in any country it is allowed to take root. Is it a coincidence that the POTUS was “educated” there?

Yeah, doesn’t quite fit into the Blaze propaganda does it.
The extreme right and the extreme left have (and will) always demonized the moderate center.
As a “lefty” I am very disappointed in some of the things he has done.
Obama is a centrist.. a pragmatist… not a socialist or a communist.

Posted on November 13, 2011 at 9:06pmWhen Obama spoke at the University of Indonesia in 2010 he called for…
“…. a new beginning between the United States and Muslims around the world… one that creates a path for us to move beyond our differences.”
“I said then, and I will repeat now, that no single speech can eradicate years of mistrust… no matter what setbacks may come, the United States is committed to human progress.”
“America is not, and never will be, at war with Islam, Instead, all of us must defeat al Qaeda and its affiliates, who have no claim to be leaders of any religion… certainly not a great world religion like Islam.”
They didn’t like him then, and they don’t like him now. Well, at least WE have SOMETHING in common with them… but THAT’S about it. Our dislike of Obama. AND HE’S AN INDONESIAN HOMIE apologist.

Posted on November 13, 2011 at 9:05pmInteresting. I read that Occidental College had released his college records which recorded that a ” Barry Soetoro received financial aid as a student from Indonesia .” Wonder how that factors into all of this. Is he just suffering from “good job” narcissistic moment where he thinks that they will actually welcome him ? Is he as naive and clueless as his Lefty followers ? Or will this visit prove to be a Malcolm X movement ? Guess we will see…

Posted on November 13, 2011 at 7:56pmBarry Soetoro, one of the President’s alias identities, is a still citizen of Indonesia. There in Indonesia Barack Obama, aka Barry Soetoro, was the adopted step son of Lolo Soetoro his mother’s 2nd husband.
Another alias of the President has the name, Harrison J. Bonnel. This Bonnel version of Obama owned the exact same real estate and shares the exact same stolen Social Security number Obama openly uses. …. but that’s a tale of fraud for another time.

Posted on November 13, 2011 at 7:57pmSocialism… in Fascist, Nazi, or Communist form… used Capitalism, but controlled it variously by Government replacing the Banking System. The US uses a Free Market form… but controls it through Government Regulation, negating the Free “part”… where the Real Conservatives desire a Deregulation. In fact, the language used to describe the Functioning of Capitalism is the same used to describe the Economic Systems of every nation. Hence, Obama and Capitalism are unRelated!
