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 world’s major religions," Obama said in a statement.
"During Hajj, the world’s 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 Abraham’s 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."

Did he translate it into “terrorist”?
he has got to go.
It is clear he cares more about Islam and the muslims than this country.
Without a doubt now I have no qualms that this man and family are out to destroy this country.
Looks like I should read Wikipedia more than the Urban Dictionary...However, I don’t know how he could have lived in Hawaii w/o eating SPAM.
‘nobody asks me about my Muslim faith’..er? I mean Christian.
We need better leadership!
This must be what it feels like to be a Serbian in Kosovo, without the minarets (yet).
Forget? or Ignore?
...and not everyone: I remember it — well.
Islam is my enemy.
“Americans are still in snooze mode....”
Even after the contrast between his Easter/Passover sentence and the 30 minute speech about Ramadan! Sheeple is a term that should be brought back.
Does anyone think Obama would give a greeting to pilgrims to THAT city?
“On behalf of the American people, we would like to extend our greetings during this Hajj season – Eid Mubarak.”

Yes, Mr Resident, here is a greeting for all hajis and their apologists: rot in hell!
This is the muzzie idea of how to treat America: from the Azzam Fatwa:

Read it, it is our death sentence from Islam in the name of their moon “god” allah, as in alla-akbar Nidal Hasan:
here’s a quote:
“Then fight (OMohammed s.a. w.) in the cause of Allah, you are not tasked (held responsible) except for yourself, and incite the believers (to fight along with you) it may be that Allah restrain the evil might of the disbelievers. And Allah is Stronger in might and Stronger in punishing.” (Surah an Nisa:Verse 84).
This verse orders the Messenger (saw) in two obligations:
1) Fight, even if alone.
2) Incite the believers.
The Lord of Honour relates the wisdom of fighting. It is for restraining the evil might of the unbelievers because unbelievers fear not our presence unless we fight:
“And fight them until there is no more Fitnah (disbelief and polytheism: i. e. worshipping others besides Allah) and the religion (worship) will all be for Allah alone...” (Surah al Anfal:Verse 39).
DING...DING...DING....we have a winner! But, I'd add we Christians need an AMERICAN city that Muslims are prohibited from entering."
