In a statement, President Obama commemorated the Muslim holiday of Ramadan — calling it a time to "cherish family, friends, and neighbors, and to help those in need."
"On behalf of the American people, Michelle and I extend our warmest wishes to Muslim Americans and Muslims around the world at the start of Ramadan," Obama said.
Obama also took the opportunity to tie in the struggles of people across the Muslim world engaged in ongoing fighting related to the Arab spring uprisings that began in 2011.
"This year, Ramadan holds special meaning for those citizens in the Middle East and North Africa who are courageously achieving democracy and self-determination and for those who are still struggling to achieve their universal rights. The United States continues to stand with those who seek the chance to decide their own destiny, to live free from fear and violence, and to practice their faith freely. Here in the United States, Ramadan reminds us that Islam is part of the fabric of our Nation, and that — from public service to business, from healthcare and science to the arts — Muslim Americans help strengthen our country and enrich our lives," Obama said.

FUBO
Thanks for this...
>>>> just the original greatest ghazi raiding and converting America to Islam..... a man who is opening the doors of America to all muslims....while giving taxpayer dollars, technologies and ideas to other muslim nations....while creating the north African caliphate.....secrets to the soviets.....commerce to the chinese
all to much for a American Christian leader of a Christian nation.
and I am still waiting for my Christmas and happy New Years wish.
FUBO, you muslim dog!
They do not celebrate Christmas. I mean, come’on, of COURSE he’s a muslin. I expect him to write a book bragging about it after he’s out.
“On behalf of the American people”?
Not this American people.
Bullstalin. Those citizens of the Muddled East and North Africa who do not wish to be imprisoned under Islamic theocracy are s*it out of luck and our government supports the Muslim Brotherhood's Islamic imperialism.
There IS NO MUSLIM WORLD as in MUSLIM NATIONS. Our founding fathers said that ALL MEN ARE CREATED EQUAL. Islam does not teach this. The nations that we "know of" as "muslim lands" were not always so and many an oppressed person knows it. Screw their theocratic governance.
You don't speak for me, Obamagabe. If you were, it'd be more like, 'On behalf of the American people, FU.'
Okay, Hussein. Name ONE way Muslims have “strengthened our country”; name ONE way Muslims “enrich our lives”.
Cat got your tongue?
Teleprompter broke?
Just more proof that Obama HUSSEIN is a dyed in the wool Muslim Radical lying his ASS off about being an alleged “Christian!” If he had actually converted from Islam to Christianity the Muslim World would hate his Guts!
Ask him to recite The LORD’S PRAYER without a teleprompter, he CAN’T! but he can recite the “Muslim Call to Evening Prayer” in perfect Arabic with no accent! He is lieing to America and the rest of the World is Laughing at Our Stupidity and Blindness! Wake UP! AMERICA!
Don’t speak for me, you sorry excuse...this American does NOT recognize the Islamic theocracy.
Once a moslem, always a moslem.
Agreed.
Obama HUSSEIN is a Flaming MUSLIM TERRORIST who had his entire past and present laundered, hidden, obfuscated and Lied About! Obama is a Total Fraud and Crackhead! May GOD SAVE OUR AMERICA from this TERRORIST!
NOPE!, NOPE!, NOPE! and NOPE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
NOPE!, NOPE!, NOPE! and NOPE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sorry, I'm scratching my head on this. Who is he talking about?
Only place in the Middle East that even comes close is Israel.
Did you have the guys walking the streets at 0400 beating drums to wake the people up to get their breakfast prior to sunrise? After Ramadan was over, the drummers went house-to-house looking for tips for their ‘service’.
