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 worlds major religions," Obama said in a statement.
"During Hajj, the worlds 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 Abrahams 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."

Ican’t believe this. This Muslim Marxist should be out of the WH tomorrow, if not tonight.
He hates us, he hates Christianity, and he hates everything we are and everything we stand for. Please, Lord, show us how to stop him.
Diverse? Diverse...!!??
As an infidel, just try going to Mecca for the Hajj and see how that works out for you. At best, if you get caught you will get thrown in a Saudi dungeon, and then the fun starts. At the worst, you'll get torn to pieces and beheaded by the howling mobs.
All together now, people...
F him, his wife, his adminstration. Hopefully, some muslim makes the great sacrifice and saves our country!
Most diverse? The press has obviously never been to the Vatican, particularly at a papal audience. You want to see “diversity”...? Go to Rome.
You want to see hatred and ethnic grievances? Go to Mecca.
Whatever you do, don’t look at post #50.
LOL!! You will re-think biting legs:)
Spot on, Livius. James Joyce famously said of Catholics, “Here comes everybody!”
Do you suppose Hussein Barack bin Ubama will wish the millions of Christians ( a truly diverse group) “Merry Christmas”?

Yes, “HCE”! Glad that you know that too...I don’t meet many who do, but Joyce, who hated the Church because it would have made him grow up and treat his wife properly, secretly loved it because it was true. And he was an Irishman, and like Spaniards, they’re completely unacommodating and want to be able to thumb their nose at the truth...but they want to know what it is and they want people to acknowledge it.
Just when I think that this POS can’t sink any lower - he does!
Good grief. I’m starting to long for the days of The Rapist!
In reference to nouns;DITTO!!
Ha Ha! I am all for Proper English, but I like to make a political statement even with my grammar!
I can be so naughty sometimes.
This clown is toast.
Imagine what the national sentiment will be one year from now.
2 years from now......
Mount Arafat??
Obama’s Grandmother is there....I guess he gave Grandmommy a “shout out”.
No good scum can KISS MY BUTT!
When the Irish go bad, they go very bad. I can say that as I’m half Irish (ancestry). I could pull your leg and say the other half is Spanish, due to my FR name, but.... German and Welsh.
Kwanza, like Chanukah, sets aside one day in a week to commorate the strong traditions of the African-American spiritual foundtion, as each day of Chanukah celebrates a tenent of the Jewish faith.
For example, the 4th day of Kwanza celebrates the timely delivery of welfare checks.
:)
Hmmm. Anyone recalling dear leader wishing Americans a Happy Thanksgiving?!!!
Would that be when they light the GREEN candle?
