Is this what Egypt really thinks of us?

This Egyptian guy basically says Obama will get assassinated if does not follow a Zionist foreign policy. A little Jewish paranoia anyone?

Actually, no one can stand in the face of their unlimited greed. They want everything: wealth, power and advocates. And if the president does not work to their benefit, they will “politically assassinate” him or bring his life to an end. This is exactly what happened to late Democratic president, John Kennedy, in the ‘60s. So, we do not have to feel exceedingly optimistic.

However, we should not be the opposite. Obama, until this very moment, has only given two speeches: in his inaugural address he promised to turn over a new leaf in regards to the Islamic world and the Middle East. In his second speech, when Hillary Clinton was taking the official oath as the secretary of state, he called for his country to hold talks with the Palestinians, which included Hamas. This is a new starting point in dealing with the Arab-Israeli conflict. All these are signs of good intentions and plans.

Conspicuously, no one can deny that Obama is a strong and charismatic president, who stepped into the White House with a highly unprecedented number of votes from Americans who love and respect him. Though, the Zionist lobby will indefatigably grope for what they want and will not spare any effort and capabilities in steering each and every end to the Israeli benefit. In other words, if Obama is not all eyes and ears to their malevolent blackmailing, he will be doomed to John Kennedy’s fate. This explains the heavy security cautions adopted at his inauguration.

Obama's victory scares Egyptian leadership

More good news from the Muslim world on Obama's victory:

According to the opposition weekly Sawt al Umma, the (Obama) cartoon appearing the leading Egyptian daily Al Ahram, caused a sense of an emergency among the Egyptian leadership. The independent weekly stated that 150,000 copies of the paper's first edition were quickly removed from the streets and destroyed and the "troublesome" phrase disappeared from future prints that day. The before and after cartoon depiction appeared in Sawt al Umma.

This is certainly not the first time that a political cartoon has caused powers in our region to be worried about losing their powers. But the paranoia of the Mubarak regime is a reflection of the concern by many Arab autocrats about the Obama euphoria empowering those calling for change. Obama's victory on the change mantra was not lost to people around the world yearning for political reform. Jordan's leading blogger Mohammad Omar says that the victory of the son of a Kenyan immigrant gives minorities, immigrants and unrepresented groups hope. Imagine a Palestinian who was born in Jordan fifty or sixty years ago and has tried very hard to be part of the political scene looking at the son of an immigrant in America being elected to the top executive position. The winds of hope don't stop at the American shores, Omar insists.

It's a weird thing for other countries, especially Arab countries, to be inspired by us, no?
