Obama greets muslim pilgrims
Boston Globe ^ | 11/25/09 | Foon Rhee

Posted on 11/25/2009 2:36:06 PM PST by La Enchiladita

President Obama continued his outreach to the world's Muslims today, sending greetings to pilgrims to Mecca.

....

"Michelle and I would like to send our best wishes to all those performing Hajj this year, and to Muslims in America and around the world who are celebrating Eid-ul-Adha. The rituals of Hajj and Eid-ul-Adha both serve as reminders of the shared Abrahamic roots of three of the world’s major religions," Obama said in a statement.

"During Hajj, the world’s largest and most diverse gathering, three million Muslims from all walks of life – including thousands of American Muslims – will stand in prayer on Mount Arafat. The following day, Muslims around the world will celebrate Eid-ul-Adha and distribute food to the less fortunate to commemorate Abraham’s willingness to sacrifice his son out of obedience to God," the president added in the statement, translated on the White House website into Arabic, Persian, Dari, Urdu, Pashto, Russian, and French.

....

"On behalf of the American people, we would like to extend our greetings during this Hajj season – Eid Mubarak."

“Hajj, the world’s largest and most diverse gathering”

They’re diverse in the different ways they believe in murdering kafir.

That's a good one. I didn't think to "ax" him that question. perfect!

To re-iterate what the article shared on this point;

To help explain this to others here who may not know;
The problem with this in part, is that the more ancient texts, extant copies of which have been proven to be in existence prior to Mohammeds' time, all indicate that it was not Ishmael (as the Moslems claim), but rather specifically instead, it was Isaac who was brought to the mountain by Abraham.

which means, my friends...'ol Mo was a-lyin! Either he or other early Islamic writers were and still are, in any event.

Normally, in regards to any other issue, the oldest texts take precedence generally by default, and are considered to be more authoritative being that they are closer to the source [time].

It is becoming increasingly more obvious to me, that Obama is much more a Muslim, than a Christian. I'm also getting the impression he blends the two, not taking either seriously, other than regarding them both as something of "philosophy" rather than inspired by a/the *actual* creating deity.

It's a "modernist" thing to do.

Only gullible liberals will fall for B.Hussein Obama's high-falutin line of B.S.

Allahu Akbar!

What a piece of garbage this “person” is. Run him out of office. He is the bad apple in the barrel.

I wonder why he feels obligated to use the office of the president to speak on behalf of all the American people to kiss muslim butt?

The disgusting barbaric behavior.

Barry needs an unruly, scruffy beard to go with the apparel.
