Muslims discovered the Americas long before Columbus sailed the ocean blue in 1492, the head of a D.C.-based jihad-linked Islamic lobbying group told a Saudi TV station Dec. 27.
There are historical accounts according to which the Muslims preceded Columbus, who is said to have discovered the U.S., claimed Nihad Awad, the co-founder of the Council on American Islamic Relations.
CAIR did not respond to The Daily Callers request for an explanation of Awads comments, which were recorded by the Middle East Media Research Institute.

Neither the Maya or the Aztecs had anything to do with discovering what is now the United States. The Mayans occupied most of what is now Central America and lower parts of what is now southern Mexico. As for the Aztecs, whose real origins are unknown, their empire was in now present day Mexico City and extend west to the Pacific and east to the Gulf of Mexico and further south. Any attempt by the Aztecs to cross the Rio Grande was roundly repulsed by Native Americans, most notably the Apache and Comanches. But what else wouldn’t an ignorant, in-bred Muslim say. They’re all nuts.

And that’s what they claimed at the Democrat convention: that muslims of America should have the rights and protections of indigenous people. A main point of their Jummah event.

CAIR claims Muslims discovered America first ...
... and the Book of Mormon teaches that Jews discovered America about 1,200 years before there were any Muzzies!

Dear Imam,
There’s a reason it’s not called Vespuchiland.
Look it up.

They are just setting the stage, so to speak, for their eventual conquest of the Americas.
Islamic thought says whatever was Islamic is always Islamic. If some territory is lost to pagans, then they have every right to reclaim it in the future. Since they discovered the Americas, then they have the right to reclaim it.
The earliest known muslim in the US became infatuated with some Indian chief’s daughter, when spurned - after he attempted to rape her - the muslim was dispatched in an unpleasant manner befitting his crime.
