CAIR Chief Claims Muslims Discovered America First

Muslims discovered the Americas long before Columbus sailed the ocean blue in 1492, the head of a D.C.-based jihad-linked Islamic lobbying group told a Saudi TV station Dec. 27.

“There are historical accounts according to which the Muslims preceded Columbus, who is said to have discovered the U.S.,” claimed Nihad Awad, the co-founder of the Council on American Islamic Relations.

“Some documents and accounts indicate that Muslim seafarers were the first to reach the U.S., [so] the bottom line is that Islam played a part in the establishment and development of the U.S.,” Awad told the Saudi interviewer, in an interview in a New York studio.

Yes, Islam has had a profound effect on the development of the Americas....we have been fighting them as long as we have existed and have been a haven for the oppressed who wanted to escape the religion and its brutality.

Actually I think it was the Vikings. But nice try

They may have gotten here first, which would explain why they were not here by the time we showed up. Obviously, the Indians met them, got tired of their sh_t and killed them off! They are very smart folks, those Indians! Taught us how to survive here...

4:27 PM.....They may have been muslim vikings.

6:34 is correct.
It was the Muslim Vikings who beat Columbus, and they were actually the ones who had the 1st Thanksgiving Dinner with the Indians-not the Pilgrims.

Okay, 813, please rewrite history for us here! LOL! We will need history book copies from BEFORE 1913, when history began to be rewritten, and I mean real text.

Without that, you ate an idiot equal to the Aurora Colorado shooter.

C'mon, prove this!

obama told him. And like typical muslim "science" (boy, has THEIR civilization went backwards over the last thousand years), they have no facts. They merely "quote" the work of some other muslim academic who, himself, quoted another muslim scholar. Any culture that says its okay to burn women alive, kill innocent and unsuspecting people, and worships someone who promoted sex with 9-10 year old girls doesn't carry a lot of weight when it comes to "science" or "history". Take that idiotic crap that only you believe back to Qatar or Saudia Arabia. They eat it up THERE. Here? One step BELOW a a lawyer doing a comedy routine.
