By President Obama’s yardstick, France, Germany, the UK, Spain, Italy and Holland should all be regarded as “Muslim nations”. In France, which has the biggest Muslim population in Europe, its 4.5 - 5 million Muslims account for 7.5% of the population. In most other Western European countries, Muslims account for approximately 3%-5% of the population.

The only EU citizens who regard their societies either as Muslim ones, or as societies that should be Muslim are those Muslim immigrants and the 2nd generation who have not succeeded in integrating into the societies in which they live, and as a result have become alienated from them. Even if half of Europe’s Muslims have this attitude (most likely the true number is far less), we are talking at most about 2%-3% of those countries.

India has 150 million Muslims (13%), making it the country with the world’s biggest Muslim minority, and the world’s third largest Muslim population after Indonesia and Pakistan. No Indian in their right mind, let alone the Prime minister would ever regard India as a Muslim country.

Obama is correct in saying that Americans should increase their knowledge and understanding of Islam. But from there to claiming America is a Muslim country seems to be a bit of a stretch, not supported by any facts.

I think this is a prelude to Obama flyinq the ISIS flaq from our White House. Everythinq he has done ends up helpinq those who want a worldwide caliphate.

Under Obama this country has become the exact opposite of everythinq it’s ever been.
