A wonderful sentiment. Too bad he hasn't a clue as to the origins of that open-heartedness.
This man could not be more American.
Oh yes he could! He could learn about and join in that American Judeo-Christian culture more fully, renounce Islam, and learn about the Messiah that taught us to love our enemies and bless those that hate us. Unfortunately, I think Yeshua was talking about brothers in the Torah, and not everybody, with the consequence that too many who heed the words fail to understand the context in which they are to be applied. Still...
I don't care where he comes from, how much money he makes, or what God he worships. And he is right: that is what makes America great.
Well I do, because the words of that prophet ARE written on the subway walls and tenement halls, and silent no more. Islam needs to be crushed, but its followers need to be saved.
That's a very Koranic view
