Muslim and american history
« on: April 10, 2011, 04:05:19 AM »
from my mailbox; Would you subscribe to this?

Barack Obama,
during his Cairo speech, said: 
"I know, too, that Islam has always been a part
of  America 's story."

 AN AMERICAN
CITIZEN'S RESPONSE:

 
Dear Mr. Obama:

Were those
Muslims that were in America when the Pilgrims
first landed?  Funny, I thought they were
Native American Indians.

Were those
Muslims that celebrated the first Thanksgiving
day?  Sorry again, those were Pilgrims and
Native American Indians.

Can you
show me one Muslim signature on the United
States Constitution?

 
Declaration
of Independence ?

Bill of
Rights?

 
Didn't
think so.

 
Did
Muslims fight for this country's freedom from
England ?  No.

 
Did
Muslims fight during the Civil War to free the
slaves in America ?  No, they did
not.  In fact, Muslims to this day are
still the largest traffickers in human
slavery.  Your own half brother, a devout
Muslim, still advocates slavery himself, even
though Muslims of Arabic descent refer to black
Muslims as "pug nosed slaves."  Says a lot
of what the Muslim world really thinks of your
family's "rich Islamic heritage," doesn't it Mr.
Obama?

 
Where were
Muslims during the Civil Rights era of this
country?  Not present.

 
There are
no pictures or media accounts of Muslims walking
side by side with Martin Luther King, Jr. or
helping to advance the cause of Civil
Rights.

 
Where were
Muslims during this country's Woman's Suffrage
era?  Again, not present.  In fact,
devout Muslims demand that women are subservient
to men in the Islamic culture.  So much so,
that often they are beaten for not wearing the
'hajib' or for talking to a man who is not a
direct family member or their husband.
Yep, the Muslims are all for women's rights,
aren't they?

 
Where were
Muslims during World War II?  They were
aligned with Adolf Hitler.  The Muslim
grand mufti himself met with Adolf Hitler,
reviewed the troops and accepted support from
the Nazi's in killing Jews.

 
Finally,
Mr. Obama, where were Muslims on Sept. 11th,
2001?  If they weren't flying planes into
the World Trade Center , the Pentagon or a field
in Pennsylvania killing nearly 3,000 people on
our own soil, they were rejoicing in the Middle
East .  No one can dispute the pictures
shown from all parts of the Muslim world
celebrating on CNN, Fox News, MSNBC and other
cable news networks that day.  Strangely,
the very "moderate" Muslims who's asses you bent
over backwards to kiss in Cairo , Egypt on June
4th were stone cold silent post 9-11.  To
many Americans, their silence has meant approval
for the acts of that day.

 
And THAT, Mr.
Obama, is the "rich heritage" Muslims have here
in America ...

 
Oh, I'm sorry, I
forgot to mention the Barbary Pirates.
They were Muslim.

 
And now we can
add November 5, 2009 - the slaughter of American
soldiers at Fort Hood by a Muslim major who is a
doctor and a psychiatrist who was supposed to be
counseling soldiers returning from battle in
Iraq and Afghanistan ..

 
That, Mr. Obama
is the "Muslim heritage" in America
.
EVERY AMERICAN
MUST READ THIS !!

no, i don't subscribe to this.  there's too much generalizing and stereotyping.  besides, not everything that's written here is true.

a case in point-- "In fact, devout Muslims demand that women are subservient to men in the Islamic culture.  So much so, that often they are beaten for not wearing the 'hajib' or for talking to a man who is not a direct family member or their husband.  Yep, the Muslims are all for women's rights, aren't they?"-- in societies where these happen to be the case, it's not so much because of islam but more of a people's culture and tradition.  

this guy knows the practice of arabs in saudi arabia and had concluded that it is so throughout the muslim world.  it isn't so.  not in indonesia or malaysia, not in some parts of the arab middle east, not in turkey and other muslim countries in eastern europe, and definitely not in our muslim mindanao.  

hey, we know better than shelving people with stereotypes and generalizations.  americans wouldn't want to be called indiscrimate f_ckers just because hollywood people give the impression that they are.  filipinos aren't all drug mules just because three of our compatriots were executed in china for the offense.

we may have less misunderstandings if we do away with cultural stereotypes and giving these religious labels (which strikes at the core of a people's reason for being), or what are we as christians?  christian f_ckers?  we've become used to the label of 'muslim terrorist', but were those terrorists in europe decades ago (italy's red brigade, germany's red army faction aka baader-meinhof gang, ireland's i.r.a., etc.) ever labeled as christian or catholic or protestant terrorists?  

and while we're at stereotyping and generalizing, lest we forget, people from luzon look down on us bisayas as promdi.  are we?  do we like the label?  or must we be thankful that at least we are not called catholic promdi?
