The real meaning of President Obama's recent address to the Muslim world in Cairo is that he is turning his back on the Jews at a time when they face another possible Holocaust.
Mr. Obama called for a "new beginning" in relations between the United States and Islamic civilization. He praised Islam's commitment to "peace," "justice" and "religious tolerance." He listed the Muslim world's supposed contributions to history - algebra, the compass and the printing press, among others.
