Trump’s Iftar dinner was a really dumb idea,
by Ann Corcoran, 6/7/18
In 2007, Hendi told a Saudi audience that by the year 2015, there would be 30 Muslim mayors of American cities.

Wouldn’t
you love to know who in the White House was responsible for Trump putting on a
dinner for Muslims during Ramadan after he had already “broken the tradition”
by not holding one last year?
It
just became another opportunity for the “Muslim community” to protest Trump’s
immigration slowdown. They say its his rhetoric, but his immigration policies
are the real threat to them.
Of course Yahya Hendi loved Barack Hussein
Obama!
Normally I wouldn’t be writing about this except for the fact that the
name Yahya Hendi jumped out from a news story at CNN in the lead-up
to the dinner. Who
is that you ask?
He
is a Muslim chaplain at Georgetown University and
was previously the Imam for the mosque in the next county east of where I live.
And,
it was a Washington Times article in the summer of 2007 about his
trip to Saudi Arabia that was part of my education when I first began writing
RRW.
He
was wrong. He was overly optimistic, but I asked readers to consider this:
If a Catholic or a Jewish
religious leader said very publicly while speaking in a foreign country that
they were working to assure 30 Catholic mayors or 30 Jewish mayors would lead
American cities by a given date, wouldn’t all hell break loose in the
media?
(I’m
having a laugh imagining a Catholic leader going to Rome, or a Jewish leader going
to Israel and making such a political prediction!)
There
were crickets when Hendi made his prediction.
Why
should it matter the religion of mayors?….unless of course
there is a supremacist goal in mind.
Hendi
called it “nationalizing” Islam. It was then that the Hijra became clear.
(You probably know from recent news from the UK that this goal to elect Muslim
mayors is well advanced there.)
Here
is Palestinian Hendi
dissing Trump’s dinner to CNN this
week: In years past, White House iftars have invited not only diplomats but
dozens of American Muslims from civil society, including corporate executives,
scholars, activists and athletes.
But
many American Muslims say they are reluctant to break bread with Trump, citing
the President’s rhetoric and actions toward Muslims and other religious and
racial minorities.
“We do not need an iftar dinner,” said Imam Yahya Hendi, the Muslim
chaplain at Georgetown University. “Rather, we need to get the respect we
highly deserve. Do not feed us and stab us.”
Hendi
attended a White House iftar in 2009, when President Barack Obama was in
office. He said he was not invited this year. Like many prominent Muslims who have attended
previous White House iftars, Hendi said he would not attend if invited this
year. [Apparently he wasn’t invited.—ed]
The Council on American-Islamic Relations plans to hold “NOT Trump’s
Iftar” event outside the White House as the main event is taking place inside. More from CNN––the Trump bashing network.
Donald
Trump might have been legitimately trying to reach out, but I don’t think that
he fully understands that he has thrown a major juggernaut into Islamic goals
to advance Islam (“nationalize” it) and the Caliphate into the US via migration
jihad—the Hijra.
Trump has set them back for years and they despise him for it. Why bother with
Iftar dinners?
It
is too late for this year, but if
you are looking for something to do—tell the President to forget this dinner
next year!

Trump will continue to court Muslim
countries and groups to get them to behave. If Muslims think Trump wants more Muslims
in the US right now, they are wrong.
Muslims have ruined their reputation through decades of terrorism and it
will take decades to reverse justifiable discrimination against Muslims.
