“The history of the relationship between America and Muslim communities is deeper and more complex than the common perception might suggest. Thomas Jefferson taught himself Arabic using his own Quran kept in his personal library, and had the first known presidential Iftaar by breaking fast with the Tunisian Ambassador at sunset. “
Is President Obama going to now try to convince us that Islam is the real foundation of America? One w0nders. This quote came from the White House Blog, a part of the ‘history of Islam’.
“Jefferson had been right. The “medium of war” was the only way to put and end to the Muslim problem. Mr. Ellison was right about Jefferson. He was a “visionary” wise enough to read and learn about the enemy from their own Muslim book of jihad”
Thomas Jefferson read the Koran to figure out how to defeat islamo-thuggery, not because he admired Islam.
