Democratic presidential hopeful Barack Obama has met President Hamid Karzai while on a visit to Afghanistan. He will soon be heading to Iraq, Jordan, Israel, and the Palestinian territories. Here are seven recommendations that his team of 300 advisors might have missed:
1. Don' t keep insisting to the Arabs that you're not a Muslim...they already know that, and they don't care.
2. Don't be shy about using your middle name. You and King Abdullah of Jordan share the same one.
3. Avoid wearing local traditional garb. However sword dancing is okay since Bush has done that.
4. Kissing on the cheek is okay but not knuckle-bumping.
5. Don't ask them to recognize Israel's right to exist. It already exists!
6. Don't take sides between Fateh and Hamas...it will only cause you headaches.

Love Tip # 7...sooo true.
Funny piece Mr. Dajani.
As for his name, mine is the reversal: I use the middle and disdain the first.
It amazes me that some people will go through great lengths to convert Muslims into Christians these days.
Yet when a real Christian like O-bama says that his a Christian, they make it an effort to prove his a Muslim.
AMAZING!!
I find this weird that Christians want to convert the whole world to Christianity. Yet can't accept a man's word that his a Christian. What hypocrites.
By the way, the Muslim, Jewish and Christian God is the same God.
OHHH This article brought me a laugh today! Thank you! It's much needed my way.
You are not only helpful and informative (per many other articles and videos I've viewed) but you also have a wonderful sense of humor.
All the best your way Jamal

I am just tired of everyone having an opinion of what O needs to do or NOT do......
Good grief peoples.. he is running for POTUS... and the USA is a big big nation with lots of different different ideologies, ethnicities, religions, prejudices..............................
You are trying to mold him into your perfect candidate by making be YOU!!!!
He can't be you.. he has to be us.... US!!! Us and in the USA.....
You either trust him or not to bring our country back to what it was meant to be... a nation of the people, by the people and for the people...
Have you seen and "for the people" in the last 20 years? Since Reagan introduced "trickle down econ" ???
No.. we have all lost our bearings... we have lost the soul of America for greed....
A nation that cares not for the poorest amongst them is a nation doomed for failure... it is the poor that make the nation great.. and the rich that reap the rewards....
When you fail to reward your poor, you will end up "eating cake"
