Obama tells Americans to start listening to Muslims
2015-06-24
[DAWN] US President Barack Obama
I am the change that you seek...
has urged anti-Islam demonstrators in the United States to "stop yelling and start listening", telling them that they would find Moslems peaceful and welcoming if they reached out to them.

He read out a message of peace at an iftar-dinner he hosted at the White House on Monday, noting that more than 1.5 billion people around the world observed Ramazan as "a time of spiritual renewal and a reminder of one's duty to our fellow man".

He recalled that when three young Moslem Americans were brutally murdered in Chapel Hill, South Carolina, earlier this year, Americans of all faiths rallied around that community.

He noted that in the same state last week a white supremacist murdered nine African Americans at a church in Charleston.

"As Americans, we insist that nobody should be targeted because of who they are, or what they look like, who they love, how they worship. We stand united against these hateful acts."

#15  The ultimate objective is to marginalize all unsubmissive white males. We'll see how it works out for this treasonous bastard.

I guess that why we're seeing all those "Ramadan ceasefires" happening...

#13  We did listen, that's why we think islam is a cancer on the world.

#12  I'd like to point out Chapel Hill is in North Carolina not South Carolina. We are two of those 57 states he visited.

#11  I never heard of Ramazan. Is it the same as Ramadam or is it different?

But I know one thing: The more I listen to Baraq, the more I understand how full of shit he is. It gets so painful after a while that I just can't listen anymore.

#10  And when we read the passages in the Koran about how to treat the kaffir (as practiced openly by ISIS), we're suppose to ignore it.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%8Ele_de_Sein

Thre is a verse in Frecnh :Qui voit Sein voit sa fin". "Who sees Sein, sees his end/ his doom"

Its highest point is judt 10 yards about sea level. On June 18th, 1940 a woman heard General's De Gaulle call to Resistance on ethe only radio in the whole island. The day after the entire male population between 18 and 50 boarded the boats and went to England to fight in Free France. No one stayed behind.

BTW, you could be interested in this https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phare_d%27Ar-Men article about the Ar Men lighthouse in the waters of Sein. Google translate does an acceptable work. Oh, and look at this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m7RSryuJAwE Ar men is the first lighthouse in the video.

#6  Listened to them -- they keep saying they want to enslave or kill me. Their actions back that up.

So GFY, Obama.

#5  Island of Sein? Where is that JFM?
Posted by: Shipman   2015-06-24 07:25  

#4  I agree. Who were the first Free French and Resistants? About one third came from the military of course (fighting the enemy was their job), then there were the sailors of the Ismland of Sein, an island so dangerous to live in and navigate in its waters you need to have BIIIG balls and... those few who had read Mein Kampf and undesrtood there could no settlement with Hitler, that he didn't want Alsace-Lorraine but destroy FRance once and for all.

So I agree, Americans should learn about Islam.
