Obama on Islam: “All of us recognise that this great religion, in the hands of a few extremists, has been distorted”
No surprise in anything here: Obama, as he has before, and as George W. Bush did before him, invokes the great unicorn in which we all must believe (on pain of charges of “bigotry” and “Islamophobia”) but which no one has ever actually seen: a moderate form of Islam that does not teach warfare against […]

“The bottom line: Muslims increasingly feel unwelcome, unwanted and viewed by their neighbors as un-American.” Well, there would be one easy way to take care of that problem: support the anti-Sharia initiative.
