OBAMA made the statement in his Cairo speech on June 4th 2009: "I know, too, that Islam has always been a part of America 's story."
Well 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, and in fact, muslims to this day are still the largest trafficers 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, and in fact, devout muslims demand that women are subservient to menin the islamic culture. So much so that often they are beaten for not wearing the 'hajib' or for talking to a man that is not a direct family member or their husband. Yep, them 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 more than 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 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 of us Americans, their silence has meant approval for the acts of that day.
So THAT, Mr. Obama, is the "rich heritage" muslims have here in America . Your made-up
history as told in Cairo on June 4th is simply that, the fiction that exists in your own mind.
