Historical revisionism to create a fraudulent politically correct 'history' for this nation is the dominant liberal paradigm now. Where the truth is inconvenient to that end, it must be destroyed and supplanted with lies. Obama is just sticking with the program.

It is an international effort aimed at many places to justify Islamic imperialism.

In a similar example of straining at gnats,

Interesting. We can get the idea of the author's lack of impartiality when they refer to Barbary pirates a "The forces of Islam"! Were the Texans who raided and stole land from the Mexicans "the forces of Christianity"?

So, in a country where people say routinely that was "always founded on the principle that all men are created equal", shall we correct that statement by saying The USA actually considered all men to be created equal in 1964 with the passage of the Civil Rights Act, or in 1980's when the final laws defining some people as "less equal than others" were finally struck down?

Muslims HAVE been part of the USA for 100's of years, and in the usage of the terms, "always been part of the USA" is hardly an inaccuracy - there have been significant numbers for getting onto 100 years, and in today's parlance, "always" is hardly a gross inaccuracy.

Straining at gnats, indeed.

Fd:

"Muslims HAVE been part of the USA for 100's of years...."

As the author rather clearly points out, this statement is simply flat-out false. If you disagree, please post some information showing a significant population of Muslims in this nation for hundreds of years. Of course, you cannot, because no such population exists in our history.
