Obama celebrates Ramadan again

New post on Creeping Sharia   Obama celebrates Ramadan again by creeping via Statement by the President on the Occasion of Ramadan | The White House. The White House Office of the Press Secretary For Immediate Release July 08, 2013 Statement by the President on the Occasion of Ramadan With the start of the sacred month of Ramadan, Michelle and I extend our best wishes to Muslim communities here in the United States and around the world. Ramadan is referred to by Muslims as The Month of Jihad (video) and The Month of Victory, Over Infidels (video). For the world’s 1.5 billion Muslims, Ramadan is a time for thoughtful reflection, fasting and devotion. It is also an opportunity for family and friends to come together and celebrate the principles that bind people of different faiths – a commitment to peace, justice, equality and compassion towards our fellow human beings. These bonds are far stronger than the differences that too often drive us apart. What principles bind Muslims and non-Muslims? This month also reminds us that freedom, dignity and opportunity are the undeniable rights of all mankind. We reflect on these universal values at a time when many citizens across the Middle East and North Africa continue to strive for these basic rights and as millions of refugees mark Ramadan far from their homes. The United States stands with those who are working to build a world where all people can write their own future and practice their faith freely, without fear of violence. Except when Obama has you in the sights of his drones. In the United States, Ramadan is a reminder that millions of Muslim Americans enrich our nation each day—serving in our government, leading scientific breakthroughs, generating jobs and caring for our neighbors in need. I have been honored to host an iftar dinner at the White House each of the past four years, and this year I look forward to welcoming Muslim Americans who are contributing to our country as entrepreneurs, activists and artists. The Byzantine Emperor Manuel II Paleologus once stated: “Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached.” I wish Muslims across America and around the world a month blessed with the joys of family, peace and understanding.
