#1 Sounds like another witness against Capt. Hook.

#2 Pakistani-American. The only oxymoron to top that one is Muslim-American.

#3 British authorities told U.S. officials they believed Babar was involved in a plot..

I dunno, but I just can't get the thought of an elephant with a crown out of my mind...

#4 Zpaz---Muslim American is a Muslim first and an American second, with some exceptions, so it seems from past actions.

#6 I just can't get the hang of the whole hyphen thing especially when it comes to Muslims. I don't believe they have any intention of being both Muslim and American in any meaningful way. Being American is just a tactical convenience for them. Can you picture a Muslim becoming enraged and defending the honor of, say, Stonewall Jackson? (Take your pick of any American hero of the past if he offends your sensibility. Try Frederick Douglas if it suits you.) Do any of our past battles to become American mean anything to them?

Muslim-American? I think not. To paraphrase Abe Lincoln, they must become either one or the other, either they must become all free or all slave, they can not do both. And for that matter, so must the rest of us. If they want to be Mooselimb first, they should live in Mooselimbland.
