That would be too embarrassing. Can’t embarrass the power structure.

You would think the left would use this data to continue to bash Bush, unless it was truly a body blow to Clinton (no pun intended). I think I’ll re-watch my copy of “The Path to 9/11”.

FR Thread:

No, Professor Ahmed, the Founders Were Not So Fond of Islam

************************************EXCERPT INTRO**********************************

Posted on Fri 10 Sep 2010 08:05:24 AM PST by Kaslin

While doing the MSM circuit this week, American University professor Akbar Ahmed told some whoppers about Adams, Jefferson, and Franklin

Akbar Ahmed, the chair of Islamic studies at American University, has advised many government officials, including General Petraeus, Richard Holbrooke, and George W. Bush. He speaks regularly on BBC and CNN, and has appeared on many U.S. shows, including Oprah and Nightline.

To oppose the “burn the Quran” event planned by Pastor Terry Jones, Ahmed wrote an editorial for CNN in which he stated:

Not only are the actions of Jones contrary to the life and teachings of Jesus Christ, but they are also against the ideals of the American Founding Fathers.

The Founding Fathers read and honored the same Quran that Jones is now seeking to burn.

[John Adams, America’s second president] showed the utmost respect for Islam, naming the Prophet Mohammed as one of the greatest truth seekers in history.

These statements are utterly opposed by the facts.

John Adams said absolutely nothing of the kind. Correspondence from John Adams to Thomas Jefferson on July 16, 1814, reveals John Adams’ true feelings about Islam: Adams states that Mohammed is “a military fanatic” who “denies that laws were made for him; he arrogates everything to himself by force of arms.”

I still want to know what the contents were of the 28 pages Bush would not release in the 911 report.
