One of these two dudes is a religious fanatic who bombs people, a guy who sent fighters all over the world, all in the name of God, a guy who uses his influence to rig elections, a rich guy who milks his personal story to write bestsellers, the other dude is the founder of Hamas
In the picture you see Obama pretend he is willing to drink the water in Flint, Michigan. The water there got poisoned with lead after the water was privatized. This in one of the US states richest in perfectly fine natural water sources. Obama pulled this stunt twice when he visited Flint to show how he took people’s concerns over the water quality seriously. Saying ‘this is not a stunt’, he asked for a glass of water, but then only held it against his lips. He also compared having lead poisoned water daily to him possibly ingesting a tiny lick of paint containing lead. Someone commented saying Obama would have been janitor Obama and not president Obama had he actually been exposed to the levels of lead the inhabitants of Flint were exposed to. Just a little anecdote that tells you a lot about suave Mr Obama.

Obama drone bombed all over the place and is also responsible for plunging one of Africa’s most prosperous countries into chaos, namely Libya.

He once jokingly threatened a pop group with drone strikes: ‘“…but boys, don’t get any ideas. Two words for you: predator drones. You will never see it coming. You think I’m joking?”

The predator was used very often by the Obama administration and killed hundreds in Pakistan, mostly women and children, during Obama’s first year in the White House. Maybe a joke, but one in very bad taste.

Obama rigged the democratic primaries in 2020 against Sanders, by requesting other primary contenders to drop out, so anyone with a conservative bone in their body could be herded behind Biden. In 2024, according to investigative journalist Seymour Hersh, Obama made sure Biden dropped out of the race. If the US is a democracy then why is a retired president exercising so much control?

Yes, Yassin backed suicide attacks to reach political goals. Shocking. He didn’t have predator drones at his disposal.

He often made it clear he didn’t have anything against Jews, but that he did have some beef with people of any religion squatting on other people’s land with the backing of a heavily funded modern army.

It’s easy to label someone a terrorist when they don’t dress like you, or talk like you, or didn’t manage to pour their childhood into a typical melodramatic American simple beginnings to champion of the people () bestselling autobiography or haven’t carefully trained themselves to use their tone of voice, mannerisms and talking speed exactly the way it enthralls western audiences or do not have your sense of humor or do not love to watch The Witcher or Game of Thrones, or Fleabag or Breaking Bad or The Wire.

This wasn’t intended as a detailed biography of either of the two, this being a blog and all

Just some context on a summery day, free of charge, hoping to broaden two or three people’s perspective.

Much love,
