ALAN FRANKLIN writes: If you key in "Obama" into our search engine, top right, you will find many stories about the Obamanation now misruling America, with his nomination of a lesbian to the Supreme Court, extreme anti-Israel stance and courting of Islamics at every opportunity. But is he a Muslim - the first Muslim, illegal immigrant to be "President," a post I am certain he occupies illegally?
I have always been wary of making this allegation. His background is Muslim and his sympathies certainly are. But Pat and I, each with over 40 years as professional journalists, know you need a lot more proof than this for something to stand up in court.
Every day I knock back wild rumors e-mailed to me, many of which are either rewritten, stale news or fantasy. This latest story has more credibility and raises serious questions, questions which big media (where is the so-called fair and balanced Fox, with its sizeable Saudi shareholding?) should be asking. Read and decide for yourselves.
Reports say Obama admitted he's a Muslim

Two media reports are serving to fuel speculation about Barack Obama's religious beliefs.
Since before he was elected, controversy has stirred over the extent of President Obama's ties to Islam. During the campaign, he spoke openly of both his Muslim upbringing and his adult conversion to Christianity. But now two major Middle East media outlets -- Nile TV International and Israel Today Magazine -- are reporting that the president has admitted in recent months that he is a Muslim.
Those outlets say that Obama, in a one-on-one meeting earlier this year with Egyptian Foreign Minister Ahmed Aboul Gheit, told Gheit that he was still a Muslim, the son of a Muslim father, and the step-son of a Muslim step-father; that his half brothers in Kenya are Muslims; and that he was sympathetic towards the Muslim agenda.
Pamela Geller, publisher of AtlasShrugs.com and author of the new book, The Post-American Presidency: The Obama Administration's War on America, says this most recent comment by Obama has been ignored by the mainstream media and should be of great concern to U.S. citizens.
"[In] this latest report...Foreign Prime Minister Gheit on Nile Television...said that, in confidence, Obama told him that he was a Muslim," says Geller, "and that after he straightened out domestic issues would show the Muslim world how to handle Israel."
Geller also says that while this topic is nothing new, it is further evidence of Obama's sympathetic tendencies towards those who mean harm to the U.S. and his intent to reshape America's religious foundation.
"If you look at the man's record, it's shocking," she laments. "[Especially] when you review how he declared an end to the -- quote, unquote -- 'war on terror'...how he floated the idea that he would talk to the violent, genocidal Hamas, that he insisted and recruited for Muslims in his administration and created an actual new department that reported to Hillary Clinton for the Muslim 'ummah' [the whole Arab world]."
Geller goes on to say that Obama's embrace of Islam shows his hatred toward Israel and effectively abandons the Holy Land, surrounded by its enemies, to fight its own battles.
