2008: Obama's campaign in Portland, Oregon

This latest push of accepting the Iran deal instead of the original promise of not accepting it if it doesn't meet the USA standards and expectations is odd to say the least.  Why does Obama cow tow to Iran?  There are lots of speculations, so I thought I'd check out a few of them.  This is just covering one odd fact.
                                                                     

OIC meeting at UN

No wonder Israel is always in trouble at the UN.  There are 57 Islamic states listed that are members in the OIC at the UN. The OIC is the 2nd largest inter-governmental organization after the UN which has membership of 57 states covering 4 continents.  It is a collective voice of the Muslim world.  It was started in Rabat, Morocco on September 25,1969 as a result of arson in the Al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem on the Temple Mount which they called "occupied Jerusalem."  You can now see the whole group's collective thinking. 
                                                                         

He looks pretty refreshed to me, and this is in Portland.  Beaverton is connected.  

 Don't tell me this isn't a war between Islam and Judaism.  OIC means Organization of Islamic Cooperation!   Too bad we don't have such a thing between the Jews of AIPAC and the Jews of J Street in the United States!  The USA only has 50 states.  Even they are outnumbered by the Islamist states!  Remember when Obama said in Oregon that he would campaign in all 57 states?  Was that a Freudian slip or had he had this fact on his mind for some reasons?  A professor of USA history surely would know that there are 50 states and not 57, one would think.
                                                                         

        "… uh, because, you know, i-i-it is just wonderful to be back in Oregon, and over the last 15 months we’ve traveled … uh to every corner of the United States. Uh, I’ve now been in fifty … ss-seven? states. I think one left to go. Uh, one left to go — eh, Alaska and Hawaii I was not allowed to go to, even though I really wanted to visit but my staff would not, uh, justify it.

• Obama says “fifty … ss-seven states”.
• This all came about in Beaverton, Oregon.  "
  Origins:   On the campaign trail in Beaverton, Oregon, in May 2008, an obviously tired Barack Obama mistakenly told a crowd that over the course of the long campaign he had been to fifty-seven states in the U.S., with one left to go: 
  
  
  "... it is just wonderful to be back in Oregon, and over the last 15 months we've traveled to every corner of the United States. I've now been in fifty .... seven states? I think one left to go. One left to go. Alaska and Hawaii, I was not allowed to go to even though I really wanted to visit but my staff would not justify it."

• I figure this is either a Freudian slip or he could have been tired, but 57 and not an automatic 50 for an American  college professor?

• Hmm. What's strange is that my list of Muslim majority countries only includes 48, and is not counting Palestine which is not a state as yet though the UN certainly has been pushing for it.   
• 
  
• I found that my list of 57 Muslim countries is from Wikipedia  The OIC have added 10 states to  this list which are: not Muslim majority states.

• Guyana:  Christianity and Hinduism are the dominant religions in Guyana. Data from a 2002 census on religious affiliation indicates that approximately 57 percent of the population is Christian. The composition of that population is:
  • Pentecostal, 17%

  • other Christian groups, 20%.

• Guinea-Bissau:  Throughout the 20th century, most Bissau-Guineans practiced some form of Animism. Recently, many have adopted Islam, which is currently practiced by 50% of the country's population; most of Guinea-Bissau's Muslims have Malikite Sunni denomination, with Shia and Ahmadiyya minorities.
• Palestine  :  When did it become an authentic state?  It's not- not yet. It would be 100% Muslim. No Jews will be allowed.  They inhabit Judea and Samaria, which was the Israel and Judah of ancient days,  and Gaza which was also inhabited by Jews long ago.  
The list did not include Kosovo which is on the Muslim majority state list. It has 90% Sunni Muslims.   Nor did it include the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus which is 98% Sunni Muslims.   Most of these additional states are Christian majority states, not Muslim.  

The collective population of OIC member states is over 1.4 billion as of 2008. Remember, not all are Muslims, though.  

The population of the USA as of 2014 was 318.9 million.

USA's Muslim's population is 2.11% or 6.67 million.

USA's Jewish population is 2.2% or 5.3 million.(as of 2014)

  Obama 8 years later and not ready to defend USA's old friend, Israel anymore in the manner that Israel feels defended.  Israel doesn't feel defended by the USA signing an agreement with the state that wants to rub her out which allows much more than Israel can believe is happening, like allowing Iran to do some of the inspecting.  Good grief!  Iran's Ayatollah has put out a book describing how they will rub her out and we sign an agreement allowing them pathways in which to do this.  With a world chomping at the bit to do business with Iran, there's no renewing sanctions, it looks like.  If Israel decides to go it alone and bomb the heck out of these sites, the USA has already said they'll attack the Israeli planes.  This one is surely for the books, so I ask, what has been going on?
  

  OIC Blames Free Speech for "Islamophobia" in West.  Ah ha, can't have any of that, can we.  Free Speech, shame.  They never thought of stopping the behaviors of killing other people which is why people have Islamophobia.
