Barack Obama lookalike Mohamen Mehdi Ouazanni cast as Satan in 'The Bible'
SOCIAL media platforms erupted on Sunday night when US TV viewers noted an alarming similarity between President Barack Obama and an actor playing the Devil.
Thousands of the 13.1 million viewers of The Bible commented on social media platforms on the resemblance of actor Mohamen Mehdi Ouazanni to the 44th President of the United States.
Interest was piqued when right-wing commentator and radio-host Glenn Beck tweeted: "Anyone else think the Devil in #TheBible Sunday on History Channel looks exactly like That Guy?
The show is a retelling of the stories from Genesis to Revelation and is produced by Mark Burnett, who also created Survivor and The Apprentice. He told CBS making The Bible was a “spiritual” calling, not a commercial one.
Burnett says Internet chatter that their Satan character resembles President Barack Obama is "utter nonsense." He added that the Mohamen Mehdi Ouazanni has played Satanic characters in other Biblical programs long before Obama was elected president.
History Channel said in a statement that the network has "the highest respect" for Obama, and that "it's unfortunate that anyone made this false connection."

Obama might look like that in 30 year's time but he sure does not at the moment. But casting ANY black man as the Devil would probably have riled the "offended" brigade.

Yet Obama IS the Devil, so it's all really moot.
If the Devil has a wife, guess who she looks like.
A character in a show bears some resemblance to the current POTUS and they get all hot and bothered.
Game of thrones purposely uses a George W. Bush decapitated head on a spear, and they're "Ho-hum, what's the big deal?".
Tell me again how there's no bias.
well you know, they all look alike.....devils, that is...
If Obama had a son, he would look like the son of satan.
Yeah, boys, keep that hate a-commin'
The Marxist-in-Chief looks like Satan because (he is) Satan. And all those on the Left are his children.
"Africa, a real paradise right?"
It's a hell of a lot better than the CPAC love fest.
Name calling is the last refuge of those who cannot logically disprove an opposing point of view.
Walk the inner city of Atlanta, Baltimore, Chicago, Detroit, etc., etc., etc. and, if you come out with your teeth intact, tell me who the racist, moocher citizens of our fair country are. While on your walking tour, behold the many wonders of the welfare state. Yes libs, this is mostly your doing. Congratulations, almost 60 years into the Great Society you've managed to destroy most major US cities. Your socialist masters must be so proud of their mindless drones.
