(CNSNews.com) - House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D.-Calif.) issued a statement on Tuesday in observance of the Holy Month of Ramadan.

“Ramadan offers all Americans an opportunity to honor the remarkable contributions that Muslim Americans make to our nation,” she said. “In every corner of the country, this beautiful heritage enriches our nation and reminds us all that in diversity there is strength.”

Here is the full text of Pelosi’s statement:

“The Holy month of Ramadan is a sacred time of devotion and contemplation for Muslims in America and around the world. This month, families will join together to honor their proud traditions and celebrate their spiritual renewal with loved ones.

“Ramadan offers all Americans an opportunity to honor the remarkable contributions that Muslim Americans make to our nation. In every corner of the country, this beautiful heritage enriches our nation and reminds us all that in diversity there is strength. Through service and leadership, entrepreneurial spirit and patriotism, Muslim Americans represent the best of America and embody our founding creed: ‘E Pluribus Unum’.

In the Phillipines “sacred time of devotion and contemplation” usually translates to a rash of random murders and dismemberments of non muzzie Filipinos. It did back in the 60s, anyway.

Pope Benedict XVI in his famous Regensburg’s Address speaking to Germany’s top echelon theologians and civic leaders described Byzantine emperor Manuel II Paleologus as “an educated Persian on the subject of Christianity and Islam,” asked, “Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached.”

Ramadan was the holy month of the pre-Muhammadan pagan religion of Mecca.

The first of Ramadan is the anniversary of the Muhammadans slaughtering those pagans in Mecca who would not convert.

That is right after slaughtering the Jews of Medina. Who had previously let them in because they said they worshiped the same God. But would not join in the Jihad against the pagans.

Betrayal and Jihad for Ramadan go back to the very beginning.

A Ramadan Carol
(To the tune of “Deck the Halls”)

Fill the floors with lots of victims
(Alla-hu Akbar, akbar, akbar)
'Cause we really need to fix 'em
(Alla-hu Akbar, akbar, akbar)
Don we now our Muslim head gear
(Alla-hu, Alla-hu, Ah-akbar)
Shoot the bloody kafirs dead here
(Alla-hu Akbar, akbar, akbar)

Kill the queers with guns and roof drops
(Alla-hu Akbar, akbar, akbar)
Spill their beers and hear those gun pops
(All-ahu Akbar, akbar, akbar)
’Cause Mohammed said to do it
(Alla-hu, Alla-hu, Ah-akbar)
Watch Obama misconstrue it
(Alla-hu Akbar, akbar, akbar)

Death to all who doubt our prophet
(Alla-hu Akbar, akbar, akbar)
Take a bomb to work and drop it
(Alla-hu Akbar, akbar, akbar)
Rape and sell off all their women
Alla-hu, Alla-hu, Ah-akbar)
Leave the streets with blood a-brimmin’
(Alla-hu Akbar, akbar, akbar)

Sorry, liberals. There's only 1 interpretation of Islam — Muhammad's

Nancy, Ramadan is to celebrate the violent subjugation of the earth to Islam. It is as EVIL of a celebration as you can get.

Once again Nancy you prove you are a fool leading the Nation to destruction.

“...We should “observe” Ramadan by eating PORK!!!!...”

Here in Memphis, we’re having our annual championship bbq contest. Sure is a nice way to start the muzzie observance.

These are the things that I have learned from Islam this century:

The 2001 World Trade Center... Osama bin Laden et al

The 2002 DC Sniper attacks... John Allen Muhammad(Muslim convert) and Lee Boyd Malvo

The 2006 UNC SUV attack... Mohammed Reza Taheri-aza

The 2006 Seattle Jewish Federation shooting... Naveed Afzal Haq

The 2009 Arkansas military recruiting office shooting... Abdulhakim Mujahid Muhammad

The 2009 Ft Hood shooting... Nidal Malik Hasan

The 2013 Boston Marathon bombing... Tamerlan and Dzhokhar Tsarnaev

The 2014 Queens hatchet attack... Zale H. Thompson, Muslim convert

The 2014 slayings of NYPD officers... Ismaaiyl Abdullah Brinsley

The 2015 Chattanooga shooting... Muhammad Youssef Abdulazeez

The 2015 San Bernardino attack... Syed Rizwan Farook and Tashfeen Malik

The 2016 Orlando gay nightclub shooting... Omar Mateen

The 2016 Minnesota mall stabbing... Dahir A. Adan

The 2016 New York and New Jersey bombings... Ahmad Khan Rahimi

The 2016 Ohio State university attack... Abdul Razal Ali Artan

Innumerable gang-rapes and rape-grooming of underage white girls...

The explosion of rape rates every nation that Muslims are migrating into....

Dishonor killings of females who dare to go out in public alone or love someone "wrong"...

Female Genital Mutilation...

Keeping women covered and subjugated...

Raping young females as a legal punishment...

Our military told to stand down and NOT prevent the rapes of underage boys and girls (bacha bazi)...

I'll go ahead and wait for Ms Peolsi to list the positive contributions of Muslims to our knowledge base and culture in the same time period...

These Democrats just don’t get it. They are so out of touch with the American people. I’m loving it because if they keep this up there will continue to be great material for Republican November campaign ads for anyone that didn’t already read or hear her statement. And I say that as a non-citizen Legal Green Card holder who loves this country and prays to my God (none of your business who that is or mine yours by the way LOL) to protect and help President Trump.

BTW, it took me 10 years and $15k in legal fees to get my green card. My wife just became a US citizen, my older son has been one for years due to his service in the US military and my younger son is eligible but wants to focus on finishing his doctorate first and see where he might eventually end up.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

No they don’t.
They are required to see sharia replace the Constitution.
They cannot honestly take the oath of citizenship.
They lie to further Islam.
That’s what the religion teaches.
If we listen to patsies like Pelosi we will be forced to submit or die.
Those are the only two choices for Infidels in Islam.

Still waiting for Pelosi to champion:

When was the last time a Democrat referred to a Christian or Jewish religious season as Holy? Huh?

Still waiting …

Not everyone fasts these days. But when they do fast, they pig out after sunset and can pig out till dawn. Hardly fasting....just rearranging meal time.

Ramadan was the holy month of the pre-Muhammadan pagan religion of Mecca.....

You Are 110% Right!!

Pre-Islamic Arabia's religion was one of superstition. Belief in jinns (genies), curse casting, magic stones, totems was the norm - and it was against this background that Allah arose. Although the Quran is claimed to be a heavenly writing with no earthly source, evidence of these very sorts of cultural influence is found in such places as Suras 55, 72, 113 and 114.

Animism, the belief that spirits inhabit rocks, trees and other elements was also very commonplace. Some of these stones were venerated and used as a focal point for the worship of a particular tribal god. No surprise, Muhammad's family had just such a stone for their own tribe - a black stone, in fact, that they kept at the Kabah (where the tribal idols were set up). The pagan rites of bowing toward Mecca, making a pilgrimage to the Kabah, running around it seven times, kissing it, then running to the river to throw stones at the devil all found there way into Islamic practice.

The final piece of the puzzle was in found in the religion of the Sabeans, an astral religion that worshipped the moon god and planned their religious rites around the lunar calendar. One such rite was fasting from crescent moon to crescent moon, a practice which would also be adopted by Muhammad.

If these things were not present before Muhammad received them from Allah (who himself is the moon god of Muhammad's tribe), why did Muhammad not have to explain what those words meant in the Quran? How would people have known who Allah was? ( or: what a jinn was? what the Kabah was? what the word Islam meant? etc.). Even the word "Islam" which many believe to mean "submission" was not an original word. In Arabic it was a secular term that denoted the strength and bravery of a desert warrior (a definition that accurately reflects the war-like tribes that founded Islam with bloodshed).

The Moon God "Allah" is from the compound Arabic word "al-ilah" or in english "the god". Allah was known before Muhammad's time without a doubt. His name has been found in pre-islamic writings and other archeological finds. At the Kabah in Mecca over 350 gods were worshipped, but it was built especially for the chief deity - the moon god. Allah was the personal title of the moon god. Allah was married to the sun goddess. They produced three daughters, whose worship Muhammad would later make the mistake of condoning. The crescent moon symbol of Arabia came from this god.

Muhammad's family revered this particular god, and it is this idol that Muhammad declared to be the only true god. So, Allah - far from being the revealed God of the Bible as Muhammad would have us believe - is nothing more than an amplified pagan idol. Muhammad did not re-make the pagan god, he simply removed the lower deities from the rites of worship. That is why he never had to explain who Allah was.

By definition, an idol converted in the 7th century into a new god cannot be the same God revealed thousands of years earlier to Biblical prophets!
