Muslim contribution to American heritage
Barack Obama said, in his Cairo speech:
"I know, too that Islam has always been a part of America's story."
HERE IS AN AMERICAN CITIZEN'S RESPONSE IN AN OPEN LETTER TO THE PRESIDENT:
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 network's 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
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 .
