Mr. Obama says this frequently – “Muslims built the very fabric of our nation.” He made the remark again just the other day.
That may well be true, but in the future, not the past or the present. Obviously he is thinking ahead.
Many of us share the hope and the promise when all this animosity will end and in the words of Micah:
“Each of us will sit under our vine and fig tree, and none shall make us afraid.”
Amen to that, but so far it’s been the Christians and the Jews who have made America exceptional and great. That’s why we’re called a Judeo/Christian nation. So a good word from the President as to that would be most welcome. The Christian contribution is well documented in all the books.
The Jewish contribution to our culture and to Western Civilization could also use a kindly reminder. Jews make up 0.2 percent of the world’s population; Muslims 23 percent. But we are still waiting for the first Muslim Einstein, today’s Jonas Salk or the next George and Ira Gershwin.
Nearly correct – “Muslims built the fabric of our nation� - Op-Eds - Arutz Sheva
Obama isn't the first to resort to historical revisionism to further his propaganda, but as the case with revisionists, his claims are easily refutable.
