US President Barak Obama discussed his affiliation with the Muslim community on Thursday, in a yet-to-be-aired Channel 2 television interview.
'My middle name is Hussein and that attracts suspicion,' Obama said. He continued by stating that his outreach to the Muslim community is designed to reduce antagonism towards Israel.
Obama said that he is able to identify with the Jewish struggle for a state because there are many similarities to the African American freedom movement."
