Obama marks Ramadan
politico ^ | 7/20/12 | BYRON TAU

Posted on 07/20/2012 5:22:29 PM PDT by ColdOne

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.

No, we had the guy screaming into a microphone at the top of a minaret. That was enough to raise the dead.

Jesus is Lord and the only way to salvation. That is the truth. Muzzies all go to hell like all nonbelievers. That is the truth.

Muslims in M.East are “courageously achieving dhimmocracy” ?

That’s it ? It is a joke ! They are fanatically achieving islamism everywhere and they want USA too, after Europe

Screw Ramalongadingdong. I hate that cult. Yes, I said hate. Too bad.

Every year, Bambi makes a big issue of it. But then he grew up in Indonesia. Screw him and his cult religion.

If that were true....why did you disband NASA and direct it to improve the "self esteem" of the islamic community....?

Islamic healthcare eh Mr PResident....? ....Like in the UK....

Woman died after Muslim nurse refused to help as he was praying An elderly woman was left on the floor at a care home for up to ten minutes because a nurse was praying, an inquest heard. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/health/9162051/Woman-died-after-Muslim-nurse-refused-to-help-as-he-was-praying.html

In what seems to be a case of blatant Muslim appeasement and show of utter disregard to basic hygiene and safety of patients the UK Department of Health has exempted female Muslim Doctors and Nurses from the basic prerequisite of washing their hands before performing medical procedures as this would mean baring the arm up to the elbow, an act that would supposedly compromise their modesty.

A department of Health spokesperson has added insult to injury by justifying that the step is intended to provide direction to services on how they can balance infection control measures with cultural beliefs without compromising patient safety.

The move comes as a shock in the wake of findings that long sleeves can act as potential resting grounds for bacteria that spread deadly infections like MRSA and Clostridium difficile.
