Exactly.
Problem is that except for that one suspect phrase, there isn’t anything incriminating there.
Interesting website! I’ll have to go back and read more thoroughly — looks like they have some very good information! Thanks for sharing the link. :)
Holy crap, what a post and website this guy has.

Love it! That’s so perfect! ROFL!
He’s a prominent historian of Islam and of the Arabs.
I have only read articles by him, not the books, but I would say that although he’s careful enough to get published by Oxford University Press, he is still more of a historian than a P.C. revisionist.
Furthering Jihad through lesbianism.
And wasn’t Huma’s father an advocate of the Wahhabi sect of Islam?

Abstract
This article analyzes African American Muslims experiences of discrimination as they share a common religious community, or ummah, with immigrant Muslims in the United States. Both African Americans and immigrants make up a substantial part of what I refer to as the American ummah. Ideally a symbol of religious unity and solidarity, the ummah in America is marked by ethnic and racial divides. While both African Americans and immigrants contribute to these divides, this article shows how immigrant Muslims enjoy a level of privilege and power over African American Muslims. I demonstrate this through a conversation between three Muslim women: one African American, another Pakistani American, and the third Eritrean American. In this heated discussion, the African American Muslim woman articulates her experiences of racism and discrimination in the American ummah. The way in which the two immigrant women respond only reinforces her sense of exclusion and isolation in contexts in which immigrant Muslims dominate. Her struggles to define and articulate her experiences as black, female, and Muslim position her voice within the broader tradition of black feminist thought and resistance.
Introduction
African Americans constitute a substantial segment of the American ummah (Muslim community). The American cross-section of the global ummah reflects a multiethnic population of African American, Anglo, and Latino converts alongside Arab, Asian, African, and European Muslim immigrants. African Americans represent at least one-third of the American ummah. If numbers do not fully indicate the influence of African American Muslims, names certainly do. The worlds most renowned American Muslim figures have overwhelmingly been African Americans: Malcolm X, Muhammad Ali, Elijah Muhammad, Louis Farrakhan, and Warith (Wallace) Deen Mohammed. Yet despite the African American contribution to Islam in America, some African American Muslims feel marginalized in the American ummah. Such experiences of exclusion and discrimination contradict the Islamic ideal of ummah, a faith community united across race, ethnicity, class, and gender. In this article, I analyze race relations in the American ummah by highlighting the voices of American Muslim women. I discovered their voices while conducting research on race and class in Muslim communities in urban and suburban Chicago in 2002.

Not only Huma Abedin is a muslim, her parents are well known islamic scholars
Let me answer this by saying, if you call Shrillary at home late, or early morning who picks up the phone?
2 guesses and let me say it ain’t Bill, and it ain’t Shrillary.
In fact the media doesn’t tell us but I think there are very few days of recent history Bill and Shrillary even under the same roof. But Huma, now that would be the complete opposite. She doesn’t seem to spend nights sleeping ‘cough cough’ at home.
She sleeps at Shrillary’s.
Obama’s church doesn’t teach Christianity and is NOT Christian. I WISH you would stop telling people Obama’s a Christian.
.
The poster asked where the allegation came from. I answered.
Not that I know of...in fact, in Obama’s defense of Wright he has ONLY said that Wright baptized his daughters.
