US appoints envoy to Muslim world

Mrs Clinton said Ms Pandith brought 'years of experience' to the role The US State Department has appointed its first Special Representative to Muslim Communities.

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said Farah Pandith would play a leading role in US efforts to "engage Muslims around the world".

She said Ms Pandith, who was born in Indian-administered Kashmir, would bring years of experience to the role.

The appointment is part of President Barack Obama's attempts to improve relations with the Muslim world.

Mrs Clinton said Ms Pandith "sees her personal experience as an illustration of how Muslim immigrants to the US can successfully integrate themselves into American society".

The State Department said Ms Pandith, who is a Muslim, would be responsible for helping US efforts to "engage with Muslims around the world on a people-to-people and organisational level". The statement said Ms Pandith was previously the senior adviser on

Muslim engagement in the European and Eurasian region at the State Department and had worked in the Afghan capital, Kabul, with the US Agency for International Development.

In a speech in Cairo earlier this month, Mr Obama said there had been "years of distrust" between the West and Islam but he was seeking "a new beginning" in the relationship.

***********************************

I couldn’t agree more. We sure don’t have any representatives in the Obomination administration!

I seriously want to know where the Muslim “world” title came from? There is NO reason for using the word “world” with Muslim...except to make Muslims seem more powerful. We need to call everyone out for phrasing it that way.

The US government has hereby made a de facto law respecting an establishment of religion.

We conservatives all need to either re-read or listen to the audio version of “1776” to fortify us to face up to the struggle we are up against and fight it seriously. It is our democracy’s only chance for survival. We cannot be complacent. We cannnot say we are too busy to get involved. WE ARE RUNNING OUT OF TIME TO SAVE OUR COUNTRY. It’s one thing to have an “I Support Our Troops” magnet on your car. It’s quite another to join the battle on the homefront.

We are facing a radical Marxist seizure of our government. What is happening before our eyes is unprecedented in American history and not to be taken lightly. These are serious times. Our country is in crisis and at a dangerous crossroads.

Do whatever it takes to either convince your representatives to support your point of view or dedicate yourself to removing them from office.
