The Iftar is the evening meal after sunset that concludes the daily fasting during the month of Ramadan. Observers around the world gather with families, loved ones, and communities to break their fast together. For observers, the Iftar dinner and Ramadan are a time to reflect on humanity and to reaffirm commitments to helping the less fortunate. This year, Ramadan, which follows the lunar calendar, is taking place during the longest days of the year.

Omaba is celebrating with his Islamic brothers in the Jihadist faith while four American soldiers are murdered in Tennessee by an Islamic terrorist. What a outrageous and humiliating spectacle!

Meanwhile, the process of Islamization of U.S. continue advancing under the Barack Hussein Obama’s policy of open doors for Muslim while closing the entrance of U.S. of Christians victims of Islamic brutal repression.

History repeats itself... Remember when another Democratic president, F.D. Roosevelt, closed the doors of U.S. to the Jews fleeing Nazi occupied Europe.

“He cheered Zaid Ahmed, a 16-year-old who founded Redefy, a website that pushes back against harmful stereotypes.”

I note, after looking at the Redefy website, that there is no statement condemning the stereotypical muslim who killed our Marines.

Instructions

1Rinse pig in cold water and set aside. Line a 32-gallon garbage bag with 2 more 32-gallon garbage bags. Place water, salt, and sugar in the tripled-up garbage bags and stir to dissolve, taking care not to puncture the bags. Place pig in the bags, remove excess air, and tie tightly. Place in a 15-quart container in the refrigerator and brine 12 to 24 hours, turning once.
2Heat the oven to 250°F and arrange a rack on the lowest level. Remove the pig from the brine and pat dry with paper towels; discard brine. Lay the pig on its side and stuff the interior with 15 to 20 large (20-inch-long) pieces of lightly crumpled aluminum foil until it’s filled out. (This will prevent caving during roasting.)
3Transfer the pig to a baking sheet fitted with a roasting rack. Arrange it stomach down with the back legs tucked underneath and pointing forward, and the front legs tucked underneath and toward its sides. (You may need to add more foil if it is not sitting properly.) Prop up the head with foil or a large ramekin to keep the back aligned. Cover tightly with aluminum foil and place in the oven.
4Roast the pig, rotating once, until it reaches 130°F, about 2 1/2 to 3 hours. Remove the foil, baste with oil, and increase the oven temp to 400°F.
5Roast, basting every 15 minutes with oil and rotating once more, until the internal temperature reaches 160°F, about 45 minutes to 1 hour more. (If the ears or snout become too brown, cover with foil.) Remove from the oven and let rest 20 minutes before carving.

Converstion with young Muslim 'activist' sitting at Obama's table..quite revealing

President Obama asked me,...... ’Do you think that teenagers, young people are becoming increasingly less religious, and if so, why?’

It was just sort of a conversation-starter question. And I responded from a high-school perspective, and sort of a discrimination-, like the work that I’m doing perspective. I was able to speak to the President about the issues that matter most to me. Like, our leader asked me how do we inspire young people to be motivated by causes and engage in work which is meaningful, which shatters and dismembers the hateful stereotypes, which are the reasons for, like, the Charleston shootings and the Chapel Hill shootings and all the hate crimes that happen.

I really got to speak with him and get to know him. He was like,........’If you just keep doing what you’re doing, by the time you’re 26, I'M CONFIDENT THAT YOU WILL HAVE SWEPT THE NATION."
