President Joe Biden marked the beginning of the month of Ramadan on Wednesday by issuing a statement in which he noted that Muslim communities “have been part of the American story since our founding.”
"During this holy month, we also honor Muslim communities across our nation that have been part of the American story since our founding,” said Biden.
“From science and technology, to arts and academia, to law and medicine, to business and government, and beyond—Muslim Americans continue to strengthen our nation’s diverse tapestry generation after generation,” he said.
“So today, let us join together across cultures and faiths and renew our commitment to creating a more equal, more just, more tolerant, and more compassionate nation,” said Biden. …

The Muslim religion is often not tolerant.
That is not a general condemnation, but simply a fact.
Muslims are almost always good people.
To: Olog-hai
We can thank the Muslim communities for the creation of the Marines.

The Arabs gave Jefferson a pain in his ass, so he commissioned The Marines to handler the problem.

Tips for Ramadan....
Stay out of tall buildings.
Avoid churches and synagogues and Kosher food stores.
Put off a trip by air.
If you think you hear a car or truck backfire or a firecracker, hit the floor until someone verifies that.
Have a safe holy day period.

Yup, First Barbary War, 1801-05. We tried paying them off but it turned out that blowing them up was a better idea.

His ex boss is a Muslim. He owes his presidency to him, so I can see why he would say that.

The Muslim Ottomans had enslaved John Smith, before he escaped and achieved fame in the settlement of Jamestown, so I suppose, in some twisted way, the Muslims had some influence on our founders. The founders probably also used the slavery practices of the Muslim world (who captured, and enslaved many Europeans) as an excuse to adopt that noxious practice, for a time.
At least it was eventually banned in the West in the 1800s, albeit it still exists in the Muslim world today.
So agreed, the Muslims did provide an influence on the Country. An evil influence.

"...That Have Been Part of the American Story Since Our Founding...." He's exactly right.
From 1801 thru 1805, the United States and Sweden waged war against the Muhammadan pirates of the Barbary Coast because they were seizing American ships (including US Navy ships of the line) and Shanghaiing American sailors.
So we've been fighting against the Muhammadans for more than 220 years with no let-up in sight.

Total bulls**t. The first mosque in America wasn’t built until 1923 in Cedar Rapids Iowa(it has since been torn down).
Some African Muslims fought in the Revolution but they were few and far between.
This is another one of Biden’s lies.

Islam did play an important role. As Western powers tried to trade with China they explored for ways to get around Islamic controlled territory. America became one of the results of that.
