Ghadaffi's Letter to Obama
By Micah Halpern

Thursday April 7, 2011

I've Been Thinking:

Libya's Muammar Ghadaffi sent a letter to President Obama on Monday April 5th. The rambling 3 page message containing Ghadaffi's demands was sent to the State Department. The letter was immediately forwarded to the White House.

The letter was not edited, Ghadaffi wrote it almost on his own with some help from his inner circle. At this point in the conflict Ghadaffi no longer controls a diplomatic corps to convey his message and finesse his style.

But some of the mistakes were intentional and totally missed by the commentators.

The letter refers to President Obama as "Our dear son, Excellency, Baraka Hussein Abu oumama." The only mistake in this pun is that the O should be capitalized.

Baraka Hussein Abu Oumama is translated as The Blessed Hussein father of the people. The expression in Arabic, Ouma, refers to the Arabic people.

The letter refers to the US handing over the campaign to NATO "following the withdrawal of America from the crusader colonial alliance against Libya."

It may be laughable, but this is no joke.
