Synopsis

On June 4, 2009, President Barack Hussein Obama was in Cairo, Egypt talking about Islam to a Muslim audience. What did this speech show about President Obama’s understanding of Islam? Starting with quotes from that Cairo speech, Dr. Stephen M. Kirby then examines Obama’s two autobiographies, canonical texts of Islam, and surveys of Muslim-Americans to answer that question. In the epilogue of this handbook Dr. Kirby looks into the Obama administration’s response to the June 1, 2009 shooting of two Army privates outside the Little Rock, Arkansas Army recruiting station. The shooting was done by a Muslim convert and received minimal media coverage. You will be surprised at the two-day silence of President Obama and his administration about this shooting. Dr. Kirby provides an explanation for this silence. After reading this book you will have a better understanding of how a sitting president understands Islam.
