Yawn... every Ramadan dinner under Bush was hosted after 9/11. After the use of military force against Muslim nations was predetermined and the assistance of other Muslim nations was required. We needed Muslims to stand with us. Muslims within our military, Muslims within the countries we were invading and Muslims in neighboring countries.
In fairness, Obama does too. But let’s not pretend his other overtures to Islam, combined with his slights of Christianity, don’t go well beyond the strategic embrace of Islam that was the policy of the Bush administration.
Anyone who doesn’t see the difference is blind.
Certain individuals on this and another similar thread are incapable of seeing the difference.
