Obama – “Let Muslims Into Your Country… It’s Ramadan!!”

Obama urges the international community to welcome refugees as Ramadan begins.

You know, I get so sentimental and squishy during Ramadan. Who doesn’t?

Albawaba – 

President Barack Obama on Sunday marked the start of Ramadan by emphasizing that the U.S. must do more to help Muslims who have fled violence and poverty.

“Far too many Muslims may not be able to observe Ramadan from the comfort of their own homes this year or afford to celebrate Eid with their children,” he said in a statement, referencing the celebration at end of the month-long fast. “We must continue working together to alleviate the suffering of these individuals.

“This sacred time reminds us of our common obligations to uphold the dignity of every human being. We will continue to welcome immigrants and refugees into our nation, including those who are Muslim,” he added.

Obama has urged his administration to admit 10,000 refugees into the U.S. by the start of October, but a complex set of security checks has resulted in only approximately 2,500 being admitted so far.

The pledge is in response to a global refugee crisis fueled mainly by Syria’s more than five-year conflict. Afghanistan is the second highest source country for refugees, according to the UN’s refugee agency.

In his Ramadan statement, Obama said: “We cannot forget the millions of lives that have been displaced by conflict and struggle, across the world and in our own backyard.”

But this year’s presidential campaign rhetoric has largely proven divisive on the issue, with presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump urging a ban on Muslim entry into the U.S. due to security concerns.

When asked on CBS’ “Face the Nation” on Sunday if he thought that a Muslim judge would treat him unfairly, Trump responded: “It’s possible.”

  1. This sacred time reminds us of our common obligations to uphold the dignity of every human being.

    Does that include Christians and Jews living among the mohammadmen? I didn’t think so, you lying sack of camel dung.

  2. Soon, the time for reminding us to honor him, will be done. He will fade, hopefully, into obscurity.

    I love the raking of his fingers, as he flays wildly, to gain any legacy. He’s fading fast (not fast enough), and it is comical to watch it hit him, re: Ruthers stuttering.

  3. Does that vest come with the sticks of dynamite… or are those extra?

    Wait, I don’t have any need for that. Never mind.

    I could use a Sno-Cone. Mango, if you have one. 👿

  6. A Muslim walks into his local mosque with a big grin on his face.
    “What are you so happy about, Abdul?” asks the Imam.
    “Well, I’ll tell you,” replies Abdul. “I live by the railroad tracks and on my way home last night, I noticed a young woman tied to the rails, like in the American movies. I cut her free and took her back to my humble abode. Allah be praised – we made love all night, all around the tent. We did everything, me on top, sometimes her on top, every position permitted by Mohammed, Peace Be Upon Him!”
    “By the most Merciful,” exclaimed the Imam, “you have been blessed. Was she as beautiful as a desert flower?”
    Abdul grimaced, “By the Jinn, I do not know – I never found her head.”
