"Muslim Heritage" In America

Barack OBAMA, during his Cairo speech, said: "I know, too, that Islam has always been a part of America 's history."

AN AMERICAN CITIZEN'S RESPONSE:

Dear Mr. Obama:

Were those Muslims that were in America when the Pilgrims first landed? Funny, I thought they were Native American Indians.

Were those Muslims that celebrated the first Thanksgiving day? Sorry again, those were Pilgrims and Native American Indians.

Can you show me one Muslim signature on the United States Constitution?

Declaration of Independence ?

Bill of Rights?

Didn't think so.

Did Muslims fight for this country's freedom from England ? No.

Did Muslims fight during the Civil War to free the slaves in America ? No, they did
not. In fact, Muslims to this day are still the largest traffickers in human
slavery. Your own half brother, a devout Muslim, still advocates slavery himself, even though Muslims of Arabic descent refer to black Muslims as "pug nosed slaves." Says a lot of what the Muslim world really thinks of your family's "rich Islamic heritage," doesn't it Mr. Obama?

Where were Muslims during the Civil Rights era of this country? Not present.

There are no pictures or media accounts of Muslims walking side by side with Martin Luther King, Jr. or helping to advance the cause of Civil Rights.

Where were Muslims during this country's Woman's Suffrage era? Again, not present. In fact, devout Muslims demand that women are subservient to men in the Islamic culture. So much so, that often they are beaten for not wearing the 'hajib' or for talking to a man who is not a direct family member or their husband. Yep, the Muslims are all for women's rights, aren't they?

Where were Muslims during World War II? They were aligned with Adolf Hitler. The Muslim grand mufti himself met with Adolf Hitler, reviewed the troops and accepted support from the Nazi's in killing Jews.

Finally, Mr. Obama, where were Muslims on Sept. 11th, 2001? If they weren't flying planes into the World Trade Center , the Pentagon or a field in Pennsylvania killing nearly 3,000 people on our own soil, they were rejoicing in the Middle East . No one can dispute the pictures shown from all parts of the Muslim world celebrating on CNN, Fox News, MSNBC and other cable news networks that day. Strangely,
the very "moderate" Muslims who's asses you bent over backwards to kiss in Cairo , Egypt on June 4th were stone cold silent post 9-11. To many Americans, their silence has meant approval for the acts of that day.

And THAT, Mr. Obama, is the "rich heritage" Muslims have here in America .

Oh, I'm sorry, I forgot to mention the Barbary Pirates. They were Muslim.

And now we can add November 5, 2009 - the slaughter of American soldiers at Fort Hood by a Muslim major who is a doctor and a psychiatrist who was supposed to be
counseling soldiers returning from battle in Iraq and Afghanistan .

That, Mr. Obama is the "Muslim heritage" in America

What I come to realize is that many of you are not racists, in that it's not that you hate people different than you. It's really a matter of you being ignorant to the facts. You would rather "rah rah" for anything you read in print that SOUNDS true and strokes your (partisan/anglocentric) ego instead of dig deeper into the facts.

1) I'll pass on the whitewashed thanksgiving story and just point out that there isn't a single african american, hispanic, or asian signature on these documents. Do these groups lack American heritage?

2) human trafficking is a world wide problem. Show some data where muslims are the primary culprits

3)No muslims during Civil Rights? Are you crazy. Many blacks united under their muslim faith to fight oppression during the civil rights era. Most notably Malcolm X. While many may have disagreed with how to fight against this oppression, you can't say they weren't there.

4) You can't make a blanket statement that Islam calls for oppression of women. Muslim views vary just as much as Christian views. I could take a look at mormons and make similar claims about all Christians.

5) Certain governments in the Islamic world sided with Hitler. You need to separate geopolitics from religion.

6) You best beleive there were non terrorists muslims who died on Sept. 11, who mourned the loss of life, and who went to war to protect our country following that day.

But don't lets facts get in your way

9:46...What ???? Are you living in some fantasy world?? Who am I gonna believe? YOU? Or my lying eyes??? The pictures of people of Muslim faith DANCING IN THE STREET (!!) after 9/11 were, what? Faked? Muslims want to take over the world (their prophet, Mohammed, said he will not rest until all men say that there is no God but Allah, and even today, that remains their goal). They are all too willing to kill thousands of people (MOSTLY OTHER MUSLIMS) in the name of (!?) God....And if there are good answers to the questions posed in that piece concerning the presence of Muslims in our history, then present them, but don't label people as ignorant. Facts and truth are not negotiable and there aren't "versions" of them. Our president does he best to convince us (and the world) that Islam is the "religion of peace", but some of us still think for ourselves and his propaganda ain't workin'. Worldwide (that's right---WORLDWIDE!)terrorism, and the resulting murder, destruction, and mayhem, is BY FAR and (without question) condoned, conceived, and practiced by, you guessed it--- MUSLIMS...spin THAT in some fantasy way....I can't wait to hear it...

10:15, you don't seem to understand the difference between radical islamists (or radicals from any religion for that matter) and the mainstream of a religion. I could claim that all Christians hate people of color based off of the KKK. I could claim that Christians believe in forced marriage of young girls. Look at the many wacko Christian groups that preach violence and hate. You seem to be able to distinguish these folks as wackos in left field but you don't want to do the same for muslims.

Please show me in the New testament where God tells us to kill others. There are many such verses that come from the quran....you find one in the new testament.


word verifications *watical* lol

Anonymous said...

you have entire swaths of the old testament that speak to the destrucution of "every man, woman, and child" by the jewish tribes who were working under God's commmands. It's the same justification used by Isrealis today in the Palestinian conflict.

If you would actually take an objective view and turn off Fox news, you would see that there are muslim scholars, Imans, and worshipers around the world who denounce terrorism. Unfortunately the 24 hour news cycle hypes the bad over the good. People like you would rather watch the video of radicals cheering after 9/11 than muslim americans grieving alongside the rest of us.

I did not say the OLD testament I said the new testament. How can the Imans, clerics scholars or what ever you want to call all of them denounce something that is written in the quran?

Anonymous said...

This nation is founded on the principal " ONE NATION UNDER GOD " not allah, screw allah if you cant accept God then get the hell out caue it does say in the old book eye for eye and tooth for tooth, so keep killing cristians and we well see what happens next!

lmclain said...

I would like to see a news report (if you can find one) that describes Christians burning mosques, or Christians imprisoning Muslims for possessing a Koran, or Christians cutting the heads off "infidels"....Muslims belief in violence is undeniable....and the poster who asked for ONE verse from the New Testament was answered by a poster referencing the OLD testament....Christ said "turn the other cheeek"..." love thy enemies", and let everyone hear the Word and decide for themselves...if you reject it, then God will be your judge...Muslims believe that if you reject Islam, then it is okay to kill you....Are you denying THAT is in the Koran???

Anonymous said...

Wow, so much ignorance. You all are smarter than this. aren't you????

Please check those facts, many are wrong. It makes your arguement sound, well, uneducated.

Anonymous said...

Even the NON RADICAL Muslims have a goal guys, if you research they sneak in each country gain enourmous backing using laws in their favor then turn violent. Just look at England soon to be Muslim run and owned.

If they say they are not radical or believe in terrorism its like them being wolves in sheep clothing.


Now we have a president that is a muslim putting key people in place to know all of our security flaws. When he leaves we are in a boat load of trouble cause he will sell his soul to satin for his beliefes.

Hail Obama!

need we bring up the crusades

lmclain said...

11:39..."It's the same justification used by the Israeli's today..." what??? for what?? If the rockets and suicide attacks stopped, there would be peace in the Mideast. Israel keeps giving up land (for promises of "peace") and what happens? riiiight...the muslims use THAT land to launch more attacks...some other posters here have compared some whack Christian cult to radical Muslim groups, but that comparison is total BS...ENTIRE COUNTRIES in the Middle East believe in --- and officially teach!!! --- that Jews are animals and must be killed at every opportunity....Saudi Arabia is THAT country and Wahibism (I think thats the correct spelling) is the version of Islam they teach. Do you deny THAT, too? Muslims are the most intolerant of any religious group I can think of, and also by ANY measure, the most violent and MURDEROUS.. DON'T try blowing that smoke up my dress--- your weak, lame and indefensible comparisons about Christianity and Islam are insultingly disengenuous. There are NO Christian nations that prohibit mosques, preaching or practicing Islam, or restrict the activities of Muslims, unless, of course, we're talking about activities such as bomb-making, burning disobedient wives to death, killing women and children shopping for vegetables in the local market, equipping cars to blow up, launching rockets into neighborhoods, killing your daughters for some (and there are many) religous "violation", opening fire on your unsuspecting coworkers, etc. Heck, in the USA, Muslims take advantage of being able to stand in the street and openly preach about killing Christians (the epitomy of FREE SPEECH). I guess you got a list of Christians doing those things, too, huh??

Yes lets bring up the crusades..... please tell me what they were about. I bet you probably don't even know.

A little vague aren't you? There has been many facts thrown out there. Care to tell us which fact and how they are wrong?

lmclain said...

2:14 I don't think he can...

Anonymous said...

The point all of you miss is that most religions/cultures/political groups are not monolithic. All christians do not worship the same. All Jews don't even worship the same. So why would you automatically believe that all muslims worship the same? Because it's more convenient for you to simply believe what Rush and Fox tells you, especially since most of you probably don't interact with a single muslim person on any given day.

lmclain said...

lol... I guess 4:03 cleared up all the confusion with that boatload of facts....damn....what in the world we we all thinking all this time??? Its the Jews and Christians at the root of all this murder, suicide bombings, family honor-killings, etc... THANK YOU 4:03!!!

You are wrong once again. I have had debate after debate with muslims about their faith. Usually they are not much on even debating with a women but they are quick to want to take you into a private chat. When you ask them questions they can't answer they start to attack. First its your mother is this. then its they want to rape your sister. Next comes them telling us we dont know how our fathers are and our fathers probably raped us. They try their best to stray away from the debate as much as possible. Matter of fact they like to change the subject once they can't prove what they have said.... wait... thats what you did. Either bring the facts or go fid your prayer rug and ride off into allah land.

sure Imclain, thats exactly what I said. Remember, reading is fundamental. And they said MD has one of the best school systems......

lmclain said...

Facts... 6:18...facts....thats what I'm looking for ...does the Koran state its okay to kill those who do not believe or convert to Islam??? Did hundreds of thousands of Muslims dance to the images of 9/11? Do Muslims immigrate to the USA and then promote (openly) the murder and destruction of "infidels" (and develop a LARGE group of followers)...do women get burned alive for violating some religious tenet of Islam?? IS THE OVERWHELMING MAJORITY OF WORLDWIDE TERROR CAUSED BY MUSLIMS? Are women in Muslim countries subjugated and demeaned according to the dictates of the Koran?? Do Muslims around the world (in every country they are in) set off explosions in markets, train stations, subways, schools, government offices, day care centers, police stations, etc, and kill thousands of innocent people? Do Muslims murder people for drawing CARTOONS?? I know...its just a FEW Muslims doing all this, right? Well, if so, they are awful damn busy Muslims. As I said, ENTIRE countries of Muslims promote the destruction of the West and of Christianity. These are facts and cannot be disputed. It doesn't matter where I was educated or who is reporting the facts....refute what I say if you can. I DON'T see Christians doing ANY of these things, anywhere, anytime...I await your factual refutation.
