" For the first time in two decades the White House will not celebrate an Iftar Dinner on its grounds."
So NOT having an Iftar dinner tradition goes back from 1997 to 1805, and really that was Thomas Jefferson delaying dinner I guess so the Ambassador from Algiers or Morocco or wherever he was from could do his Ramadan thing.
Great reporting there WaPo.

Good for President Trump!
Having the secretary of state deliver a short message is a good move!

This holiday marks the culmination of Ramadan, a month in which many experience meaning and inspiration in acts of fasting, prayer, and charity, .."and murder of innocent bystanders, Jihad, and torture of those who don't believe in their crap".

Just thinking about it. Bubba started this. Could it have been a force that gave Obama the win over Hillary?
It would seem that 9-11 would have erased Obama from the scene....but minions will be minions.

So I wonder what Obama’s fellow Ramadan celebrators thought of his illuminating the White House in rainbow flag colours?

Thank God that the enemies of Jesus and his followers were not celebrated in our White House this year. May He bless Pres. Trump for ending this atrocity.

So if during Ramadan Muslims can only eat between sundown and sunrise then Muslims in Alaska must starve to death. Sun never goes down this time of year.

Good. imam bammy loved m*slims and hated Christians. Trump knows that *slam is a hateful religion that should be suppressed, not encouraged.

Why would he celebrate a faith that he not only believes in, but hates?

For the first time in nearly two decades, Two decades hardly qualifies as a "longtime White House tradition", even for a nation as young as the USA.
