Incoming Muslim Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib, a Palestinian-American, will be sworn into office Thursday to serve Michigan’s 13th district using Thomas Jefferson’s centuries-old Quran.
What a disgusting mockery.
Former Minnesota Democrat Congressman Keith Ellison also used Thomas Jefferson’s Quran when he took his ‘oath of office.’
Thomas Jefferson owned a Quran not because he cherished Islam or saw ‘Mohammadans’ in a favorable light — he used it to study the enemy.
As the Washington Post reported, Jefferson’s Quran includes an opening from George Sale that says the following:
“Whatever use an impartial version of the Koran may be of in other respects, it is absolutely necessary to undeceive those who, from the ignorant or unfair translations which have appeared, have entertained too favourable an opinion of the original, and also to enable us effectually to expose the imposture.”
Rashida Tlaib echoed Barack Hussein Obama when she said Islam helped shaped the US because Muslims were ‘here at the beginning.’
“It’s important to me because a lot of Americans have this kind of feeling that Islam is somehow foreign to American history,” Tlaib told The Detroit Free Press. “Muslims were there at the beginning. … Some of our founding fathers knew more about Islam than some members of Congress now.”
Of course this is a distorted revision of history.
