Obama told that lie and now there’s a class on it.

If it’s true, why wasn’t the 1st mosque in the US built earlier than 1929 ?

Oh....but you slander them! They are THE! Ohio State University.

Their graduates should be ashamed to even mention where they got their degree.

The Marine Corps was created on November 10, 1775, but was disbanded after the Revolutionary War. It was revived in 1798 during the Quasi-War or undeclared naval war with France.

Does it cover the Marine’s Hymn “to the shores of Tripoli”?

Moslems really did have a role in the early days of the Republic. they wee the occasion for building the first real navy and marine corps and for giving them mission experience.

Guess I’d better stick with subjects about which I know something.

Thanks for the (somewhat) correction.

Interesting that the wording is "intricate" rather than "integral". Perhaps that's by design.

No major invention or discovery has emerged from the Muslim world for well over seven centuries now.

For an eye-opener about Muslim contributions to science and other facts about Muslim education, see:

Truthful, fact-based courses on islam is what’s needed. Of course liberal don’t want to confuse their agenda with facts or truth.

The mockery engendered by OSU's grandiloquently emphasizing THE apparently didn't suffice.

Now there's this !

Bukhari’s “Introduction to US History” as written by the prophet in 600 AD. There are also notes from Isaq, Talibari, and Muslim. Recommended reading for all age groups.

Dittoes. But it’s not just alumni that’s funding this idiot University. It’s all of us taxpayers across the country who are on the hook for student loan defaults from Ohio State and other colleges.

President Trump needs to stop, cease and desist in all federal loan subsidies to these anti-American universities.

Remember what happened to ITT Tech when the Education Department shut down student funding last September? Multiply that times 70 to 80 percent of our institutes of higher learning and THAT would be a good thing.
