Dear Mr. Khan:
I, like millions of Americans saw your speech at the DNC on Thursday night.
I wish to offer my sympathy for the death of your son, Captain Humayun Khan, who was killed in action in Iraq.
As a former US Army officer, and a veteran of the Gulf War, I can certainly understand the pain and anguish that you and your wife endure every day.
Your son died saving the lives of his fellow soldiers. As John the Baptist wrote, Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.
Captain Khan is a hero. I am sure the soldiers he served with regard him as one. I know you and your wife do. Rest assured that millions of veterans regard your son as a hero as well.
To paraphrase from the Book of Ecclesiasticus, your son’s name liveth for evermore.
Your son made the ultimate sacrifice for his country, a country that was new to you and your family and one which you openly embraced and certainly love.
When you and your family arrived to America from Pakistan, you assimilated into our country. You adopted American ways, learned our history and apparently you even acquired a pocket Constitution along the way. Good for you sir.
But, there are many Muslims in America who not only have no desire to assimilate, but wish to live under Sharia Law.
That is unacceptable to Americans. There is only one law of the land. That is the US Constitution.
As you well know, Mr. Khan, we live in violent times, dangerous times. Muslim madmen from ISIS and other radical Jihadi groups are on a murder and terror spree across the globe.
Your religion of peace, Islam, is anything but that in 2016. That is a fact that is confirmed every time a Muslim shoots, bombs, beheads and tortures innocent men, women and children. This does not mean that every Muslim is a terrorist, but most terrorists, sir, are indeed Muslims.
A Muslim terrorist attack has become the sign of the times.
Regardless of what the feckless, naïve, leftist ideologue Barack Obama and his dimwitted colleagues John Kerry, Jacques Hollande and Angela Merkel state, the United States and the West are at war with Radical Islam. It is the job of the President of the United States to protect his nation from all enemies; foreign and domestic. Unfortunately, Mr. Obama romanticizes Islam and refuses to accept reality, which has resulted in the deaths of thousands of innocent people across the world.
Groups like ISIS and Al-Qaeda have one goal, the complete destruction of the Judeo-Christian culture, our religions and our way of life.
Many Americans have families that have been here for decades, even centuries. Many families like mine have relatives who fought in the Civil War, WWI, WWII, Korea, Vietnam and Desert Storm. Some families have relatives who fought in the American Revolution.
We don’t plan on letting our country be devoured by Muslim maniacs. We are Americans sir, and not unarmed, socialist European zombies. We will do what is necessary to protect the United States. While many Democrats and liberals see the world through rose colored glasses, conservatives understand that there is good and evil in this world. Evil must be destroyed before it destroys us.
Strong measures, wartime measures, must be taken to protect this country from those that wish to annihilate us and our way of life.
Mr. Trump’s plan to temporarily halt immigration from Muslim countries that are known to either support terrorism or harbor terrorist groups is not only pragmatic, but indeed it is constitutional. It is the constitutional duty of the President of the United States to protect this nation.
There is simply no way to vet hundreds of thousands of Muslim refugees from war zones like Syria, Iraq and Afghanistan.
Europe is being destroyed because reckless leaders like Angela Merkel have opened the continent’s doors to a flood of over one million undocumented Muslims arriving with nothing more than a bad attitude and a haversack of Jihad.
Do you think Americans are stupid? While the left lives in a dream world, the right does not. Mr. Trump understands the threat to his nation and the threat, sir, is not from Swedish Lutherans named Anna and Lars. The threat, sir, is from Radical Islam.
How in God’s name are US immigration authorities supposed to know the true intentions of a 22 year old Syrian man? It is impossible. You know it is impossible.
How in God’s name are US immigration authorities supposed to know the true intentions of hundreds of thousands of Syrian refugees and thousands of other sundry Muslims who wish to arrive on our shores?
It is impossible. You know it is impossible.
Whether you, your wife, the Muslim world and millions of Democrats are offended by Mr. Trump’s realistic view of the world is irrelevant.
Whether you, your wife and son would have been prohibited from emigrating from Pakistan to America under Mr. Trump’s wartime plan is irrelevant. The security of this great land supersedes your desires and the desires of others who wish to come here now. The United States of America has no obligation to open its doors in order to placate foreigners and liberals in our government.
To adopt any other course but Mr. Trump’s would be a cause for further endangering the lives of Americans every day. That, sir, is unacceptable.
You attacked Mr. Trump in front of a worldwide audience, yet you can’t understand the fact that he defends himself against attacks from you, Hillary Clinton and the left. What else is one to do sir?
We must live in a world of reality, not a world of denial, delusion and fantasy the Democrats inhabit every waking day of their lives.
Radical Islam is the enemy of everyone on this planet who believes in freedom and justice. Until it is destroyed, this nation must protect itself from enemies both foreign and domestic.
How about just saying, “Way to go! Use that dead son for your political gain!”
Muslims don’t love their children. I’ll go so far to say that Muslims don’t know love.
They know only respect that comes from a clenched fist. That is all.
Straight out of the Cindy Sheehan school of dead son exploitation. How utterly disgusting.
THIS
Love,
O2

More Americans have died at the hands of Muslim vets at places like Ft. Hood than have died in combat 15/13).
Especially since ISIS has already threatened to infiltrate those refugees with its soldiers! Would Khan's country have allowed unfettered refugees into Pakistan from Syria without vetting them first? No, they would not.
Great response to this grieving father who, if he had not already been hijacked for the unscrupulous Clinton campaign, would have understood Trump's position better. He let the liberals pollute his son's memory all for the sake of political gain.
This is another form of jihad, albeit cultural- the ingraiting cultural jidahi who come clothed as in sheep’s clothing but are actually jihadi wolves.
Don’t give into these turds with long winded explanations nor letters (as nice as they are).
The more words you put into their argument you give them - they gain more power & talking points over you.
The best way to cut off with someone of this ilk is to diss them right away with NO EXCEPTIONS and END IT RIGHT THERE, i.e., DO NOT ENGAGE IN LONG WINDED CONVERSATIONS NOR REPLYS
Make the point succinct, diss them & then cut them off- because that’s how their minds work.
Beat the War on cultural jihad and sharia law!
Khan job. Doesn’t understand freedom.
Dear Mr. Kahn,
Your son vomits on your soul in disgust and rage from heaven.
Damn you to the hell where you truly belong.
Sincerely, America
Good letter. Well done.
Why sir, if your faith is peace loving, do you not turn out those radicals in your mosques who preach violent jihad, vitriolic anti semitism, the subjugation of women, religious intolerance and support barbarisms like female genital mutilation, child marriage, honor killings and even slavery? The trouble is sir these are part and parcel of your religion and were condoned by the prophet himself. Your religion is mired in 6th century tribalism and has never experience anything like a reformation or enlightenment. Yours is not a religion of tolerance or turning the other cheek, but a religion of vengeance, retribution and domination. Your creed is clear... convert all people to Islam even at the point of the sword. Now your radical brothers have kindled a global war with the express goal of overturning Western Civilization and establishing a dictatorial Caliphate. Where will you and your Muslim brothers stand when this war escalates? Remember that not all Germans were Nazis, but most supported actively or tacitly the maniacal Hitler cult. In the end they were all dealt with devastation and ruin as the rest of the world rooted out the evil of Nazism. Your people will suffer the same fate when the civilized world finally says enough and forever ends Islamic jihadism.
FYI
Way too much explanation for an angry troublemaker whose mission is Muslim destabilization of the United States.
Dear Mr. Kahn, your son served and died, not you. Your opinion is no more valuable than any one else’s on the subject of massive Muslim immigration.
Kahn came here to get away from crazy jihadists and live in peace. We want Kahn to live in peace. But we can’t run away to a safe haven, thousands of miles from chaos, like Kahn was able to do by being selected to come to America. We here in America have to stand in place to preserve the safety of all the citizens of the country. And sometimes that means preventing certain individuals from coming to America. And at times of war, as we are now, that can mean immigration has to slow down. Or even stop. So Kahn can live in peace. So our sovereign nation can live in peace. Immigration to America isn’t an inalienable right; it’s a privilege. As Kahn well knows.
If this Kahn bloke had wanted sympathy he should have just told about his hero son and then kept his ugly mouth shut...
by attacking a nominee for high office and possibly the next president of the United States he spat on his own son’s memory...and insulted our country..
Trump will represent the very country that the son died for...
The soldier didn’t die for Hillary Clinton or Obama he died for this country..
Kahn used his son to attack Trump politically ...
Hes a nasty bit of work...
I ask the same thing...
“When’s the wife going to say something...without her husband hovering over her...”
I want to hear her speak for herself not just repeat what her husband said..
Bill and Hillary Clinton and Obama haven’t sacrificed anything for our country...in fact Bill was a draft dodger went to Russia and marched there against our country..
As a veteran who served BEFORE I became an American citizen, I want to ask Kahn “why did you not sign up and go yourself ??? Where’s your duty to your new country ??? Where’s your sacrifice ??? I noticed you managed to have our country do for you. You were educated at Harvard. What have you done for our country. Your dead son, no that wasn’t your sacrifice, That was your son’s sacrifice. You haven’t sacrificed for our country. You have lived high on the hog since you got here from Dubai.”
I have sympathy for these parents whose son died 12 years ago, but not when they act so atrociously...
I’m am shocked at the unwarranted hateful attack on Trump by these awful people...
Bump to the top!
Well said.
The Gospel Of John wasn't written by John the Baptist. It's anonymous. But if it was a John, it was probably the apostle John, writer of the book of Revelation.
John the Baptist was killed before Jesus.
John the Baptist is also mentioned in Islam.
” Muslims don’t love their children. I’ll go so far to say that Muslims don’t know love.”
Muslim mothers strap bombs around their kids waists and proudly send them off to a suicide mission with not a tear shed.
Trump should have used Obama’s line - the Khans are not real Muslims - they’re not representative of the real Islam.
” I’ll go so far to say that Muslims don’t know love.”
You don’t know how right you are...
