The White House Released this statement yesterday from President Barack Obama to commemorate the Muslim holiday of Ramadan:
These rituals remind us of the principles that we hold in common, and Islams role in advancing justice, progress, tolerance, and the dignity of all human beings. Ramadan is a celebration of a faith known for great diversity and racial equality. And here in the United States, Ramadan is a reminder that Islam has always been part of America and that American Muslims have made extraordinary contributions to our country. And today, I want to extend my best wishes to the 1.5 billion Muslims around the world and your families and friends as you welcome the beginning of Ramadan.Emphasis mine. Now: how did Muhammad respect the dignity of all human beings? How did Muhammad's imperial conquests to spread his religious ideology by the sword respect the dignity of all human beings? How does Sharia law -- Islam's legal foundation -- respect the dignity of all human beings when it mandates death for apostates? How does Islam respect human dignity when Mohammed mandated enslaving and raping the captured women of defeated peoples as a legitimate means of spreading the faith?
Really think I'm lying about this last one? From the Koran, Chapter 33, verse 50:

How does it advance tolerance, when nonbelievers are to be killed?
“......that Islam has always been part of America and that American Muslims have made extraordinary contributions to our country.”
And what might those contributions be?
Can you name one? I can not.
That and pickled pigs feet......
He’s a democrat? Duh!
Yes, of course, honor killings, jailing women for being raped, marrying 9 year olds,killing Jews and Christians. All of these things advance justice, progress and tolerance./SAR
well, if all the people of Islam are lying scumbag pedophile rapist with a huge inferiority complex then by making pedophilia, lying, rape etc a wonderful trait then would it not advance the dignity of those who are the said scum..
**Can you name one? I can not.***
They are very good at demolishing buildings, with people still inside them!
Until he denounces honor killings in America, stoning of rape victims, and the murder of converts away from Islam, our pro-Islamist president speaks with a forked tongue.
That's an easy one. Muslims don't consider women, or even little girls, human. You know, like Jews and Christians. In fact.... I won't get into little boys.
