Lupe Fiasco butted heads with Bill O'Reilly and condemned the military actions of President Obama -- whom he once again called a "terrorist" -- in an appearance on "The O'Reilly Factor" that aired on Monday (June 20).
After the Fox News host showed a clip from Fiasco's track "Words I Never Said" -- in which he raps, "I really think the war on terror is a bunch of bullshit/Just a poor excuse for you to use up all your bullets" -- Fiasco reiterated that the actions of President Obama, along with every U.S. president, has supported a terroristic agenda through foreign policy. "If you're gonna fight terrorism, true terrorism, weaponized fear ... to me, you fight the root causes of terrorism," he said.

The rapper then told O'Reilly that he supported the killing of Osama bin Laden, but did not support the invasion of Afghanistan following 9/11. O'Reilly replied, "You are oversimplifying and bringing a message to people -- younger people, I pointed out, who admire you -- that is a message that is not true."
Fiasco, whose third album "Lasers" topped the Billboard 200 in March, first referred to Obama as a terrorist on CBS' "What's Trending" earlier this month. Afterward, he told Billboard.com, "You have educate the masses to exactly what their tax dollars are going to pay for ... I think once people educate themselves and open up their minds to understand that on that really basic level, then you'll have some type of change in the way that Americans associate themselves and participate in their own political process."

Will check out the videos soon. But until then a quick internet search pulled up fatwas against Osama Bin Laden, Al Qaeda, islamic terrorists, suicide terrorism, and fatwas extolling muslims to obey laws of the countries in which they reside....
and the list goes on........
My first order of business will be to declare the ICC, UN, IMF, WHO, WTF, Federal Reserve, EU, EMF, Bank of England to be NULL AND VOID. They are hereby to CEASE all further operations. I also ORDER the United States Military to begin an AIR CAMPAIGN to destroy all of their headquarters and to arrest all of their leaders. Bring the leaders to me! I haven’t got enough room in my house so most of them will be chained to posts in my back yard. I haven’t got any funding YET, so that is my plan. After funding comes in, I plan to rent some space in my closest FEMA CAMP and keep them there.
I'd like to ask a question of all those who believe that abortions should not be paid for as a health care procedure. Name one other issue towards which our tax dollars go for which we can deny our tax dollars. I'm against war, yet my tax dollars are going (and going and going) to pay for two wars. There are those who are against corporate bailouts, yet our tax dollars are going for those bailouts. Why is abortion the ONLY issue which people can irrationally say, my tax dollars shouldn't go for that because I personally am against it.
It seems the people who are railing against "rationing" and having the federal government involved in our personal healthcare decisions are the same people who in the next breath declare that they want the federal government involved in rationing abortions, even for medical reasons.
