Obama tells French United States one of the largest Muslim Countries in World

"If you actually took the number of Muslim Americans, we'd be one of the largest Muslim countries in the world," President Obama told French television station Canal Plus on Monday

http://washingtontimes.com/news/200...on-comment-sparks-debate/?feat=home_headlines

Obama is out of touch or his teleprompter was malfunctioning again. Unofficial estimates put the Muslim-American population at roughly 5 million, which would rank the U.S. about 35th among 150 countries with Muslim populations.

 

I've read there are 7 to 8 million Muslims in USA.

20000 Americans convert to Islam every year --> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N7dfxA9nzuU (NBC News)

Add to it thousands more immigrating to the US every year, and a healthy birthrate. USA is indeed one of the largest Muslim populated countries in the world.

 

LOL. This guy is really living in wonderland, a neighbour of alice. Having a twisted and falsified understanding of the world is ok, even expected for a muslim filled with hatred to everything non-muslim (I would also guess a converted muslim), but arguing with the facts is something you can expect only from gauharjk.

p.s. wikipedia says:

So lets say 4 million would be a good number

 

Passive-aggressive America (with its codependent inhabitants).

First we have a president that kicks ass, now we have one that kisses it.

 

HA-HA-HA! Man! You guys will jump on anything won't you? Even nonsense like this. It's just so sad how desperate the right wing is. Can you guys please at least try to have some sort of logical debate? It's getting ridiculous.

Many Americans might not like his pandering to the muslim world, but the fact is that his little statements here and there are more productive at preventing another major terror attack than anything our military, CIA or NSA can do.

 

This is true but the Muslims in USA are not that type as such in other Muslim countries.......

 

Jun 2009... really dubdubdub?

 

France is a bigger muslim country than the US. You have no idea how bad the situation is in France, having more and more poorly educated people from the dumbest/latest religion is really a big step backwards in the history of france. We slowly started to get rid of religion (christianity) and now the most stupid religion on earth is growing while the national IQ is drowning!

This can only lead to a civil war that the most savages will win.

 

I do not believe that statement

 

I am a ( very) freshly minted US citizen. On my ceremony we had 40 muslims from Africa and Middle East out of the grand total of 64. I gave the benefit of the doubt to immigrants from Ethiopia and India. Only 3 Mexicans, 3-4 other Latinos, 6-7 Whites and rest Taiwan/Laos/Thai. I live in the heart of Bible Belt, so go figure.

 

This is what most people don't realize, Europe is going towards a civil war fast.
The Muslims won't integrate into society, they don't contribute(most of them are a burden) and they are religious extremists, it's pretty much inevitable.

Case in point, there are 800,000 Indos living in the Netherlands with no problems.

Indos are mixed ancestry Indonesian Dutch. Based on this the estimations, which include the third generation, reach up to at least 800,000 people. This makes them by far the largest minority community in the Netherlands. During the 1950s and 1960s an estimated 60,000 Indos arrived in the USA, where they have smoothly integrated into mainstream American society. American Indos are sometimes also referred to as Dutch-Indonesians, Indonesian-Dutch, Indo-Europeans and Amerindos

Hmm one small flaw according to wikipedia this guys are mostly Christian and or non-religious and there are only 400.000 of them living in the Netherlands .

 

300,000 people in the Netherlands trace their ancestry to Suriname. Both the Indos and Surinamese assimilate. These cultures don't have a culture of Jihad and conquest and taking over other peoples lands. Look what happened to the churches in places like Constantinople (قسطنطینیه, Turkish: Kostantiniyye or İstanbul) and Cordoba (Arabic: خلافة قرطبة Khilāfat Qurṭuba).

"Similar to the path followed by the Indo’s (immigrants from the Dutch colonies in Indonesia), Surinamese have slowly and steadily integrated into mainstream Dutch society without any major obstacles or delays. Unlike migrants from Turkey or the Middle East, Surinamese migrants spoke Dutch and were at least marginally familiar with Dutch culture."

"In a 2006 study, 40% of Surinamese respondents said they felt “Dutch” first and foremost. Of the second generation Surinamese surveyed (those born and raised in the Netherlands), a clear majority said that they felt, first and foremost, “Dutch.” By contrast, only 20-30% of immigrants and their descendants from Turkey and various Middle Eastern countries felt the same way."

How they feel like is utterly irrelevant. To be Dutch you have to be Dutch, not feel like it. And that is not something you can choose for yourself.

 

Obama probably wanted to mention that Muslims Americans are 'one of the largest in the world'. There may have been a slip of tongue.

 

What do you think when the freshly minted US citizen decide to join the Taliban to kill Americans?

Florida imams arrested for aiding Pakistani Taliban

The imam of a Florida mosque and his two sons, one also a Muslim spiritual leader, were arrested on Saturday on charges of financing and supporting the Pakistani Taliban, U.S. officials said.
The three Pakistan-born U.S. citizens were among six charged in a U.S. indictment that accused them of "supporting acts of murder, kidnapping and maiming in Pakistan and elsewhere" carried out by the Pakistani Taliban.

Muslims are 2% of the US population but 18% of the prison population in large states such as Pennsylvania and New York. In Rikers Island (New York City's main jail complex) 25% of the jail's 14,000 inmates are Muslims.

You choose for yourself whether to assimilate or put on a burka and segregate.

 

If Bogart's statistics are true, then there has been some sort of misinterpretation of Obama's statement.

 

Obama: "No Such Thing as Shovel-Ready Projects"

Obama now says, "there's no such thing as shovel-ready projects."

In 2009 Obama said that his $1 trillion stimulus package would go to "shovel-ready" projects to put people to work right away.
