President Barack Obama has, on numerous occasions, made remarks promoting the Islamic faith, and attempted to play up the notion that Islam has played a vital role in the history of America.
Of course, there has been massive push-back against Obama’s comments, as Muslims played little role in the founding of America, or it’s initial greatness, other than providing the impetus for the formation of the Marines and America’s first war on foreign soil, against the Muslim Barbary Pirates.
Since Obama initially made these types of comments about Muslims in America back during a 2009 speech in Cairo, there has been something of an “open letter” making the rounds on the Internet, rebutting Obama’s statements with a list of facts he just doesn’t want to hear.
Recently, a high school lacrosse coach named Scott Lees was forced to resign his position at the Fryeburg Academy in New Hampshire, simply for sharing the nearly six-year-old open letter on his Facebook page.
“I just thought it was an interesting article,” Lees said, noting that none of his students interacted with the post. “It’s not like it went viral,” he explained. “It’s not like everyone and their brother saw it.”
According to Western Journalism, Lees was informed by the school that he would be terminated from his position. Instead, he offered his resignation, in order to keep the potential dismissal from following him on his quest for another job.
Here is the open letter that essentially got this coach fired from his job:
“Dear Mr. Obama:
“Have you ever seen a Muslim hospital?
“Have you heard a Muslim orchestra?
“Have you seen a Muslim band march in a parade?
“Have you witnessed a Muslim charity?
“Have you seen Muslims shak[ing] hands with Muslim Girl Scouts?
“Have you seen a Muslim Candy Striper?
“Have you seen a Muslim do anything that contributes positively to the American way of life????
“The answer is no, you have not. Just ask yourself WHY???
“Were those Muslims that were in America when the Pilgrims first landed? Funny, I thought they were Native American Indians.
“Were those Muslims that celebrated the first Thanksgiving day? Sorry again, those were Pilgrims and Native American Indians.
“Can you show me one Muslim signature on the United States Constitution? Declaration of Independence? Bill of Rights? Didn’t think so.
“Did Muslims fight for this country’s freedom from England? No.
“Did Muslims fight during the Civil War to free the slaves in America? No, they did not. In fact, Muslims to this day are still the largest traffickers in human slavery. Your own half-brother, a devout Muslim, still advocates slavery himself, even though Muslims of Arabic descent refer to black Muslims as “pug nosed slaves.” Says a lot of what the Muslim world really thinks of your family’s “rich Islamic heritage,” doesn’t it Mr. Obama?
“Where were Muslims during the Civil Rights era of this country? Not present. There are no pictures or media accounts of Muslims walking side by side with Martin Luther King, Jr. or helping to advance the cause of Civil Rights.
“Where were Muslims during this country’s Woman’s Suffrage era? Again, not present. In fact, devout Muslims demand that women are subservient to men in the Islamic culture. So much so, that often they are beaten for not wearing the ‘hajib’ or for talking to a man who is not a direct family member or their husband. Yep, the Muslims are all for women’s rights, aren’t they?
“Where were Muslims during World War II? They were aligned with Adolf Hitler. The Muslim grand mufti himself met with Adolf Hitler, reviewed the troops and accepted support from the Nazis in killing Jews.
“Finally, Mr. Obama, where were Muslims on Sept. 11th, 2001? If they weren’t flying planes into the World Trade Center, the Pentagon or a field in Pennsylvania killing nearly 3,000 people on our own soil, they were rejoicing in the Middle East.
“No one can dispute the pictures shown from all parts of the Muslim world celebrating on CNN, Fox News, MSNBC and other cable news networks that day. Strangely, the very “moderate” Muslims who’s asses you bent over backwards to kiss in Cairo, Egypt on June 4th were stone cold silent post 9-11. To many Americans, their silence has meant approval for the acts of that day.
“And THAT, Mr. Obama, is the “rich heritage” Muslims have here in America…
“Oh, I’m sorry, I forgot to mention the Barbary Pirates. They were Muslims.
“And now we can add November 5, 2009 – the slaughter of American soldiers at Fort Hood by a Muslim major, a doctor and a psychiatrist, who was supposed to be counseling soldiers returning from battle in Iraq and Afghanistan.
“That, Mr. Obama is the “Muslim heritage” in America!
“P.S. Now, you can add the Boston Marathon bombings, too…”
