Trump Wishes Muslims 'Warm Greetings' for Eid
 [AnNahar] U.S. President Donald Trump...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and what ever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th President of the United States... on Saturday sent warm greetings" to Moslems celebrating the end of Ramadan, after his administration broke with the tradition of hosting a White House event to recognize the holy month. "On behalf of the American people, Melania and I send our warm greetings to Moslems as they celebrate Eid al-Fitr," Trump said in a statement. "During this holiday, we are reminded of the importance of mercy, compassion, and goodwill." "With Moslems around the world, the United States renews our commitment to honor these values." Since the Bill Clinton ...former Democratic president of the U.S. Bill was the second U.S. president to be impeached, the first to deny that oral sex was sex, the first to have difficulty with the definition of is... administration, the White House has each year hosted either an event to mark the Eid al-Fitr feast -- which ends the fasting month of Ramadan -- or a meal breaking the dawn-til-dusk fast, known as an iftar. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson reportedly rejected a request by his department's office of religion and global affairs to hold an event for the holiday. Trump has come under fire for his history of anti-Moslem rhetoric on the campaign trail, that included calls for surveillance of US mosques and an outright ban on Moslems entering the country in the name of national security. A week after becoming president he issued a ban on travelers from several predominantly Moslem countries, which has been frozen by the U.S. courts after sparking global chaos and outrage. Yet during a visit to Soddy Arabia ...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. When the oil runs out the rest of the world is going to kick sand in the Soddy national face... last month, Trump softened his tone on Islam, rejecting the idea of a battle between religions in an address before dozens of leaders of Moslem countries.
