Let me guess in the eyes of Islam, the US is “The Great Satan”?

Back in 1979 when Jimmah Carter toppled the Shah of Iran and allowed the mullahs & ayatollahs to seize power and gave us the hostile theocratic Iran we know to this day, the Ayatollah Khomeini thanked Carter by declaring America to be the “Great Satan” and Israel the “little Satan”.

For a while the rest of the Muslim world said those epithets were coined by Shiites not Sunnis, and disavowed them. But they are in common use among Muslims of all stripes to include our new hijabi duo in Congress.
