Obama greets muslim pilgrims
Boston Globe ^ | 11/25/09 | Foon Rhee

Posted on 11/25/2009 2:36:06 PM PST by La Enchiladita

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."

That jpg of DT Devereaux’s is SO great. He was one of the best. Please know I am shamelessly lifting it for my DT Devereaux archives. (with full credit, of course.)

Thank you for posting.

A National embarrassment. He has crossed the bounds of reality.

non-Mozzies are not allowed to step inside the CITY of Mecca, forget about near the mosque.

BEST BUY MAKES US AWARE THAT AMERICANS OWE ALL TO ALLAH

Posted by thelastcrusade - November 24th, 2009

Is America becoming a Muslim nation? Has the tide of history turned against the Christians and Jews living in the land of the free and the home of the brave? Will Islamic law eventually become the law of the land?

The answer to all of the above is yes.

I’m with you. I think this is how we play it; let him and his administration self-destruct. We just need to play it so that he does not bring down our precious experiment in freedom and democracy -— our Country -— with him.

Yes, my FRiends, I saw your posts and I do not deny this was done before. I’m not a spinner. In fact, the FReepers were up in arms about it when Bush43 shamefully did this. I think this is a fairly recent WH practice and undoubtedly due to influence of CAIR. In the case of the current regime, there is some tweaking of the message and it is said with a much more BROTHERLY emphasis. Dubya’s message appears embarassingly naive and a tiny bit patronizing. The first pathetic president ELEVATES the muslims and their “pilgrimage.” I appreciate you presenting the facts, though.

Galway, in the west of Ireland, is well known as a Spanish port of Elizabethan times, and the locals love to tell you about it. The claddagh symbol reputedly came from the Spaniards.

“I like that—and I’m a writer/editor! As we say in the business, “Stet!”

I’m a music producer/songwriter. Is “Stet” the same thing as “It’s A Take!”?

LOL!
