    Probably to reach out so that there are less people like this...

    http://www.cnn.com/2010/WORLD/meast/07/05/...dex.html?hpt=C1

    The Middle East was a scientific haven for a looooong while. I don't see why reaching out to young Muslims to get them interested in science and less like the people in that link is a problem. Seems like a non-issue to me, plus he was interviewing with al-Jazeera.

      The question is whether or not NASA is the body that should be reaching out to anybody for, purely, political reasons.

      Among other duties, I thought that was the purview of the Secretary of State and other diplomatic bodies.

      The question raised - rightly or wrongly - is whether Obama is an Arab-file and an Israeli-phobe.

        *********************

        I don't see much reason to not figure that Obamao is antagonistic towards Israel,

        and very supportive of Muslim countries.

        Like Obama SAID during one of his interviews "...my Muslim faith".

        Like, "we don't have to be afraid of Israel attacking us, so hell with them"...

          They should be reaching out to anyone that they can. There is a shortage of American scientists. If they can recruit any Muslim scientists it's all the better for them. But personally, this just looks like a bullshit pr move to improve how the Islamic world perceives us.

            I just find it offensive, that Obamao is spending so much energy to

            dramatize his support for Muslims,

            and subtlely ? undercutting support for other religions, races, cultures, countries.

            Like, immediately taking the side of the BLACK prof in Boston, vs the WHITE policeman.

            Like, demanding Israel give up major concessions to the Palestinians, with no mention

            of the extreme aggression by Hamas.

            Like bowing to Muslim leaders, but snubbing the Israeli leader.

            I could add more...

            Obamao is a wolf is sheep's clothing. And I think we are in for big, big trouble.

              That was idiotic on his part, and I won't defend it.

              What about 3 billion dollars per year sounds like being snubbed? It's about time we stop riding the Israeli dick. They've done nothing to deserve it.

                      Obama's new mission for the space agency is to stroke the ego of the Muslim community.

                        I really think you guys are making a mountain out of a mole hill. The guy was interviewing with al-Jazeera. We don't have a great relationship with the Islamic world, the statement was made to improve it. Nice xenophobic pic, T. >_>b

                            If that's what you want to call trying to improve a relationship, sure.

                              What the hell did we ever do to these people?

                              I'm sorry life may not be fair, and that not every muslim owns their own buick and has a chicken in every pot. Just face it, Obama thinks we need to rob from every hard working american and give it away to those who never got a break in his opinion.

                              I am starting to think that Obama hates that Americans have the opportunity to get ahead and feels that it is not fair to the rest who sit on their ass and do nothing more than look for a handout. They are only victims of their own circumstances.
