We have all,or almost all,witnessed the "incoronation" of Barack Obama.
Beyond the excitation of such a memorable event, what struck me was the religiuos hypocrisy which accompanied the event.
True,Obama is obliged in the name of american politics, to balance his Hossein midname with an apparent deep believe in Christianism as opposite to what the name implies i.e.Islam.
He is evidently an intelligent guy but he "acted" exactly in the manner the majority of america's christian population expected from him.
I looked at him when the lunch was served for the honorables of the Capitol and all rised to say thanksgiving before beginning to eat.The inclining of the head, the closing of the eyes, the inner apparently concentration ,all was typical american standard, as we see in american films.
The projectors focused on him when he attended the religious ceremony in the church and when he, in the same inner concentration approved, al what this old woman preached about the poor ,bla,bla ,bla and the God who cares so much about America.
As a show of american religious unity they presented a row or religious people ,a muslim woman drapped all over except her face,two rabbis and a series of christian religious people who according to their dresses one was supposed to understand which congregation they are representing.
They all said something sweet abot god and then making a little pause pronounced a same mantra about God who shall take care of America.
You know what? I'm not a great fan of Dubbya but his evangelical belief was open and came from inside his soul,it was sincere.
With Obama the religious belief is ,if not 100%,then surely a big lot of it sheer fake.
It's as I say religious political hypocrisy or political religious hypocrisy
which is the same.
Now the problem is to what extend will his religious beliefs influence America's external politics.
The islamic extremists ,as Al -qaida,the Iranians ,the Irakians, Hizbullah ,Hamas and other such nice guys saw in Bush a crusader which will finally be defeated by a modern Salah-a -din .
Will Obama succeed to change their mind ,which what price?
The pockets of uncle Sam are empty and his own children are going to miss the good life of before.
Far from me of being a rasist but I never saw up till now a black politician anywhere in the world achieving successes,quite contrary.
It remains us only the hope that "god in his mercy wiil really care for uncle Sam and his dear children (the rest of the free world).
