Zuma Rosssdale is a Cutie Pie

Zuma Rosssdale is a Cutie Pie

Yesterday, we published the very first picture of of Zuma Rossdale, the 2-month-old son of rocker couple Gwen Stefani and Gavin Rossdale. Well, here’s a much clearer shot of Zuma Nesta Rock Rossdale, carried by mom Gwen at a library in Beverly Hills on Wednesday morning.

Zuma was reportedly named after Zuma Beach in Malibu. And Nesta was Bob Marley’s first name before he officially switched it with his middle name, Robert.

UPDATE: Zuma posed for his very own passport photo.

10+ pictures inside of baby Zuma

nothing “special” looking, kinda trailer trash boring

Awww how cute… Looks like a Cabbage Patch doll

While Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama “has tried to push his origins into the background, his ‘Islamic roots’ have won him a place in many Arabs’ hearts.”

That’s the observation of Iranian-born commentator Amir Taheri, whose column in Tuesday’s New York Post notes that many Arabs and other Muslims see Obama as “one of them.”

They see that Obama has Arabic-Islamic first and middle names: Barack means “blessed” and Hussein means “beautiful.” His last name is Swahili, an East African language based on Arabic, Taheri writes. His sister is named Oumah, Arabic for “the community of the faithful;” his daughter Malia bears the name of a daughter of the noted Caliph Othman; and his father and stepfather were both Muslims.

Although Taheri did not note it, Obama was raised partially as a Muslim when he lived in Indonesia with his mother and stepfather. While there, he studied at two schools and was registered at both as a Muslim student.

As such he received Islamic religious instruction, studied the Koran, and prayed with other students. He did attend mosque, albeit infrequently, with his stepfather.

Obama’s religious upbringing after Indonesia is somewhat of a mystery until his late 20s. At that point, Obama says he converted to Christianity after meeting the Rev. Jeremiah Wright in Chicago.

Still, Obama has maintained strong support from American Muslims, including Louis Farrakhan’s Nation of Islam movement. Farrakhan has endorsed Obama and has called him the “messiah.”

These factors have made Obama a big hit in the Arab world, where he has received wide praise, including:

The Syrian regime has indicated its preference for Obama. Buthaina Shaaban, an adviser to President Bashar al-Assad, has written: “The change suggested by Obama is essential not only for the U.S. but for the entire human family.”

Libyan leader Muammar al-Qaddafi called Obama “a Muslim” and said: “All the people in the Arab and Muslim world and in Africa applauded this man. They welcome him and prayed for his success,” although Qaddafi also expressed criticism of Obama’s comments on the future of Jerusalem.

Hamas political adviser Ahmed Yousef said this year: “We like Mr. Obama and we hope that he will win the election.”

Hezbollah’s second in command, Sheik Naim al-Kassim, urged Americans to vote for Obama as a step toward peace with Islam, and pro-Hezbollah columnist Amal Saad-Ghorayeb said there is “no doubt Arabs should welcome an Obama presidency,” according to Taheri.

In Saudi Arabia, commentator Hussein Shobokshi wrote that an Obama presidency “would mark an important moral transformation in the superpower and is a healthy indicator of the long-awaited improvement in the international arena.”
Some columnists also have noted Obama’s close ties to several Palestinian radicals, including Columbia University Prof. Rashid Khalidi — former communications director for the Palestinian Liberation Organization — and another Palestinian political activist, the late Edward Said.

The “Arab street” also favors Obama. Recent surveys found that he is the preferred candidate in Egypt, Jordan, Morocco, Algeria, Syria, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates.

Be afraid. Be VERY afraid…

Awww, he’s a little butter ball already. So adorable. Both his parents are good looking, so he’s going to be good looking too.

Before you know it, he’ll be running around kicking up dust with Kingston.

I love their children’s names. They’re unique without being awful. Right now, I’m guessing by looking at the closeup that Zuma looks more like Gwen’s father. But babies change so much in such a short time.

He’s a cute little thing, but good lord — image going to school with a name like Zuma…

In South africa we associate Zuma with the ANC leader who will be our next president although he is a rapist and was / is under criminal investigation.Yea so Zuma is a nice name!!! Only not in South Africa

Did I mention that Zuma is a preferred name for girls and that it means PEACE.

my gosh, this is like the cutes baby eever omg xD my top 3 are zuma, sean preston and shiloh xDD from the celebrity babys, yu know..^^

and i agree with #11; only stupid people say that i baby is ‘ugly’. heartless odious people. -.-

Wow! He´s a cute little baby! He reminds his older brother Kingston a lot. Zuma has a really beautiful name although to some it sure sounds weird. Once Gwen and Angie joked that Kingston and Shiloh could be a couple when they grow up and arranged playdates. Now they could do the same with Zuma and Vivienne. Also Knox and Zuma could become friends.

Cute family pics. Interesting to think they were at a library like us normal non-celeb folks. Wonder why. Do you really think they have library cards? With all their money they could buy all the books they want, or an entire bookstore - LOL - anyway, being an avid library fan myself, I like it :-)

hm brother Kingston is sweeter then Zuma…but the blow eyes are beautiful!

hm brother Kingston is sweeter then Zuma…but the blue eyes are adorable! <3 Gwen and Gavin have both brown eyes :-)
