Barack Obama and Slavery: Islam is the driving force in the history of world slavery

Bill Warner writes at the American Thinker: “Baraq [Barack] was the name of the winged horse-like creature that took Mohammed to Paradise in the Night Journey. Baraq can also mean God’s blessing. Obama is Swahili for Osama, who was one of Mohammed’s chief warriors. Osama also means lion. Hussein reminds some Americans of Saddam Hussein, and Obama’s supporters get upset if it is used. Hussein was the name of Mohammed’s grandson. So Obama’s entire name is based upon Islamic mythology and African conquest . . . Obama’s name reveals a part of history that is unknown or hidden about America, Africa and slavery. It also reveals a history of the destruction of native African civilization. His name came from his father, a so-called Arab African. The word Arab is the clue to the hidden history . . . The Arab African Muslim has always been associated with slavery because Islam is the driving force in the history of world slavery . . . “
