Michelle Obama Celebrates Ramadan, Breaks Fast with Iftar Dinner

As part of her summer trip overseas to Morocco, First Lady Michelle Obama celebrated Ramadan byjoining the royal family for an Iftar dinner at the palace in Marrakesh.

She was joined by her daughters Sasha and Malia as well as actress Meryl Streep. The Iftar dinner is a traditional Muslim feast celebrating the end of the Ramadan daily fast.

The members of the First Family were likely familiar with the tradition, as President Barack Obama has hosted an annual Iftar dinner at the White House during his presidency.

Michelle lost weight due to fasting for Ramadan. She's down to a svelte 285

I don't know why she didn't choke on the food, if she didn't.

Funny how they don't celebrate anything Christian!

What is so funny? The Obama's are closet Muslim. They supposedly attend a church where the preacher rants about the evils of America. They celebrate Muslim holidays and as stated avoid any of the traditional Christian holidays. That is not funny but sad for this country. If they are Muslim admit it don't lie about it when all evidence points to it!

I cannot comprehend why Michele Obama and Meryl Streep would support this group when they treat women like second class citizens. women in the Muslim world have NO rights. You do what your husband, son or brother tells you....period.

Mama Robinson must have missed this trip; stayed behind to practice her voodoo. Might have felt out of place at the feast.

8:46 AM, because Michelle is actually Michael LaVaughn Robinson, who happens not to be a female.

It amazes me that the Obamas or at least Barrack claims to be a Christian and then celebrates Ramadan. What is this educated "country boy" missing? The two does not mix. You are one or the other.
