A radical Islamist imam, who had previously expressed support for various radical factions in the Middle East, opened the House of Representatives with a call to prayer for Ramadan. The Daily Caller reports:
A Muslim cleric who called for violence against Israel and expressed support for Hamas gave the opening prayer before the House of Representatives Thursday, angering several representatives.
Omar Suleiman, an imam and president of the Yaqeen Institute, delivered the invocation at the invitation of his congresswoman, Democratic Rep. Eddie Bernice Johnson of Texas, according to the Jewish Telegraph Agency. Republican New York Rep. Lee Zeldin, who is Jewish, decried the invitation in light of the fact that Suleiman has repeatedly called for a third Intifada against Israel, referred to Jews as “Zionists” and called them “enemies of God,” and defended the terrorist organization Hamas on social media.
Totally unacceptable that @SpeakerPelosi had Omar Suleiman give the opening prayer yesterday in the House. He compares Israel to the Nazis & calls them terrorists, supports Muslim Brotherhood, incites violence calling for a Palestinian antifada & the end of zionism, etc. Bad call pic.twitter.com/bZakjQVwsJ

Suleiman has also openly supported the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement against Israel and Israeli businesses. The BDS movement has several financial and personnel ties with Palestinian terror groups.
Considering that many imams have a history of NOT supporting radical movements, why was such a man not chosen instead? Is it because a significant portion of House Democrats support jihadists in their struggle?
“Islamic celebrity?” The perfect oxymoron?
Why is this prayer accepted when a Christian or Jewish prayer is not. Nancy has shown her purpose which is to gain power using any means. I think she is an egomaniac.
When they get down and put their forehead on the mat, kick them right in the arse.
I do think that some do not know we have Constitution which says all religions have a right to practice their religion here in the USA. Rallying against Islam will do nothing to stop them from practicing their religion here, get over it accept it, less than 1% of Muslims are radicals about the same percentage of Christians who are radical or the 2,5% of Jews who are radical. Christian and Jews may not kill they just make your life a living hell, by passing laws to control how you live your life. I am very thnkful that it is slowly coming to an end, when Atheist out number both Christians and Jews in most of the World. Like Thomas Jefferson said many times If a man has ten Gods or no God at all neither breaks my leg or picks my pocket.
He did not want Christianity in this country because he had seen what it had sdone to other countries.

If they practice their religion, then they believe and follow their bible, the Koran. And, if they follow and believe their bible, then they are radical. I urge you to read their bible.
Koran believing Muslims (beheading, female castration, six year old brides, death for renouncing Islam, bombing innocent people, etc.) are animals and should be treated as such.
The Constitution does not infer the members of Congress while in session should be stopping and spreading their prayer rugs to pray during the day. Get real the governments of Turkey, Iran, Iraq, or any other Muslim country would never allow a christian to even be a member of their Government. You people need a shotrt stay in any of our syco wards. Or be an observer of an autopsy and take notes as to where the brain is located.
Pelosi allows a terrorist to say a pray for Ramadan in the Halls of Congress but she calls Trump, our own President everything in the book. What is going on here? We need to clean Congress up and fire all of the Democrats for sure but also fire all the RINO’s also. Term limits have to be imposed. That’s the only way to start winning our Country back. Also all Muslims need to be deported regardless if they are a USA citizen. They are trojan horses ready to rise up when the time is right. If we have no Muslims in America and we don’t allow any in then we have no terrorism problem. Simple.
And after the Congress is cleaned we could save $Billions by renting a bungleough in the woods to house those left over.
You might as well allow the devil himself to sleep with your 12 year old daughter. Islam is incompatible with Western Civilization. It’s a pity more people cannot read. Reading solid history proves this assertion. Islam belongs out in the desert where it began. Islamists belong out there with their camels not in the USA and DAMN SURE NOT in the US Congress. The people is congress are bad enough already!
You all voted those evil people into office.
Careful, there, buddy. We didn’t ALL vote Democrat-cloaked Islamists into office. We didn’t ALL vote any Democrat into office. I have NEVER voted for any Democrat, nor especially any Muslim (not that I’ve ever seen one seek the Republican nomination) and have actively opposed them at every opportunity.
Are you even an American? Making such broad statements about our election processes indicates a critical lack of knowledge.
Gotta be kidding me, Sir- I sure didn’t!
Voter Id’s and accountability must be a requisite to vote for leaders of this Great Republic, otherwise it will perish.
Wht was a Muslim activist even allowed in there if they are not a member of congress. Shouldn’t some member have given a prayer or don’t they know how to. This is America not some middle eastern country even though in some places its starting to resemble some of them. MAGA
Unfortunately, even in Congress, “YA CAN’T FIX STUPID!”
The Democrats in the House are completely brain dead. You don’t bring a snake into your house and not expect to be bit.
That’s not a prayer, that’s hate speeach. Completely unacceptable. Christians should be allowed to offer a real prayer for Easter that the true Messiah is Jesus Christ he is alive and will Judge all at the end of times.
Absolutely correct on all points, Billy!! Thank you!!!
Could someone tell me, why are all Democrats A$$ holes ??????
Why, because they have abandoned their oath of office in the pursuit of POWER. If the sick Muslim religion/political party can help them obtain more POWER, so be it!
WHY BE SHOCKED… THERE WAS A GAY MUSLIM MARRIED TO A MENTAL DISORDERED TRANNY LIVING IN ” WE THE PEOPLE’S ” WHITE HOUSE FOR 8 YEARS, THAT WAS TRYING TO DESTROY AMERICA SLOWLY FROM THE INSIDE BY USING THE DEMOCRAT DEEP STATE GOVERNMENT & NEW WORLD ORDER ELITIST…
Amen Brother
BULLS EYE!
So you folks don’t believe in freedom of religion?? I’m not surprised. You people are going to shred the constitution if you get the chance. If you can make Christianity the state religion, what’s next? Jefferson and most other writers of the constitution had the foresight to keep the government from having a state religion…..and they were on target for doing so. Look at those countries where there are state religions…..Saudi Arabia, Syria, etc. You complain that Christians can’t practice their faith in those countries, but you want to do the same thing in this country by banning any religion with which you disagree. Shame on you.
If Christians can pray in congress, why not any other religion. Fact is, this whole world would be much more peaceful if there were no such thing as religion.
No other religion says convert or I can kill you.
Amen, this is an only religion that wants all to believe in them, no other religion allowed.
There is no religion connected to these savages. It is their goal to destroy and kill all non muslim people and rule the world. They are a hate group with no concern for anyone , even their own people.
You’re are a fucking brainless idiot. Hire about showing some real patriotism and don the uniform and fight for or freedoms instead of supporting those sub human mongrels. Islam is NOT A RELIGION. IF you’d have ever spent some time among these barbaric animals, then you’d be able to donate some intelligence on the subject. I LOST many friends that I served with in Vietnam so you can exhibit your stupidity and obvious disdain for America.
This country has done without a State religion for over 250 years. The misinterpretation of that desire is our current non-Constitutional belief in the “separation of church and state”. Since that mistaken belief was instituted, the country has drifted from a fundamentally religious and moral one to a secular and immoral playground of the self-importantly labelled liberal elite. Only a liberal would see this as “progress”.
In Thomas Jefferson’s day the word religion was used interchangeably with the word denomination. The meaning of the first amendment was that no denomination would be the state religion. There could be no state church as there had been in England. But Christianity was accepted as the one true faith. In fact an early Supreme Court decision went to great lengths to demonstrate that “this is a Christian nation.” Remember that The Ten Commandments were inscribed on the wall of the Supreme Court, the first of which says “You shall have no other gods before me (the God of the Bible).” The ones who agreed to that First Amendment are the ones who held to the First Commandment.
Why is this happening in our United States Congress? Islam has no right to have an opening prayer because this is a Jewdao Christian Nation as America was formed from the beginning. We do not read or worship the Qoran just the Christian Holy Bible. If these two Muslims were not sworn into Congress by the Christian Holy Bible then they are both null-n-void as Congresswomen.
Most libs are Devil worshipers . A cult member is just right for the house
Why are you not printing my comment??? I did not use foul language. I did not slander any person, company or government employee. Why are you trying to take from me my Constitutional right as an American citizen to free speech? I will be contacting my attorney shortly. This fact MUST be seen and heard by the general public. Who do you think you are?
I just finished writing a letter to President Trump and suggested ALL PATRIOTS JOIN FORCES FOR HIS ELECTION IN 2020. What do you all think about this?
I wish I could vote for President Trump a thousand times !!! But I forgot, that I’m not a Democrat !!!
I agree wholeheartedly. I certainly plan to vote for him in 2020. I currently support him financially as much as possible.
Members in Congress have complained about expressly christian prayers offered in congress. Now they have no right to complain.
I wanted to vomit that a Muslim terrorists asshole leader prayer in Congress. What’s next, Kamala Harris showing off her sexual proclivities by giving Corey Booker a blow job on the podium? She got where she is on her back! There is no longer any self-respect left in this chamber? Are we reducing this institution down to basic human instincts, fuck tradition, the laws and the Constitutional order as these Democratic hypocrites sell our souls to the highest bidders?…screw the fact that for 240 years this nation was built on Juneau—Christian values…..Sir Winston Churchill said it best… “When Muslims are in the minority they are very concerned with minority rights— when they are in the majority there are no minority rights.”
Pelosi has got to go and all the Islamic people in the House and Senate need to be removed. Islam is not a people per say, but a very brutal organization and the do not want to assimilate to the rule of law and their plan is to destroy the Christian religion and kill all Jews. They have never been happy since Jerusalem was made the capital of Israel. They swore that they would kill any and all Jewish people no matter where they were and they really meant it.
HOUSE GONE FREAKING NUTS. Hey Congress ALL THE BUILDINGS BELONG TO WE THE PEOPLE. Get that crap out of our buildings. Piglousy I hope when TSHTF you are first to go.
well.
i feel the SWHTF BEFORE ANY 2020 ELECTIONS.
The left, in my humble opinion are digging their own graves. They want to out left each other, they are showing their disdain for our history, heritage and freedoms. Simply put, they don’t want to be America any longer.
Can San Fran Nan! She appears to be getting more UN-American with every newscast.
Our Father which art in Heaven. Hallowed be thy name. Your kingdom come. Your will be done on Earth as it is in Heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our debts as we forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, the power, and the glory forever. Amen
Now that is the prayer that needs to be prayed in the House, the Senate, the White House, and everywhere in the United States of America, a nation founded on Judeo-Christian values.
A “comprehensive”, as the Libs love to say, plea for mercy, forgiveness and guidance from a Neutral Supreme Being. No mention of prophets or any other type of leaders; just ONE father with many diverse children who could and would live in harmony if they could get their heads out of their backsides. Grow up, World, and cut this my god can beat up your god crap
We are in a Civil War.
Diversity as opposed to What?
Everyone has the right to their own opinions (not facts) and life style choices, but nobody has the right to impose, intimidate, blackmail, dictate, or legislate as to how rest of us (individuals, corporations) should believe, think, and function. When small activist groups attempt to do that, what is that – Anarchy?
• 4.6% are LGBT based on Gallup Study
• 0.6% are Transgender
• 1.1% are Muslims
Why are these minority groups dominating every local, state and federal legislative conversations?
Why are the kinder garden children in California asked as to what gender they FEEL like?
The Equality Act as currently proposed in the Congress would fundamentally change the traditional value system of the USA – read the text and be informed
One Example: Transgender males would have the right to compete in women’s sports, thus totally eliminating girls’ opportunities for college scholarships – not to mention locker rooms, bathrooms & showers.
This is just more proof of the socialists Democrats’ anti-Semitism, that apparently the Jews who support the Democrats don’t really care about.
But the Jews should know by now that, “you’ll reap what you sow”, as you sow in the fields of the anti-Semitic socialist Democrats.
For some reason the American people believe that the Muslims are our friends, despite what happened on 9/11 and afterward where the Muslims around the world celebrated that American disaster.
But in time all Americans will know what the Muslims are planning to do to the USA and the American people, as Iran and other Islamic countries continually proclaim, but at that point it will probably be too late to save ourselves.
I do not think they are our friends,those in CAIR have said they are here to take over not assimilate. What is Pelosi doing besides showing how ignorant she is? She and all those in Congress should be made to understand this so-called religion. It isn’t a religion but more like a cult of satan worshippers,the members need to fully know about this and not let them have even an inch or they will take the whole country. Their allah is satan not God,there is only one God and one devil but the devil has many names and the one they call to is a name for satan.
My first and second comments were scraped off. I asked WHY? It too was scraped. Do you think this fair treatment to a facebook user?
Time to Reinstate the 1952 McCarran Warner ACT that forbid Muslims from holding office in USA!!!!….
Amen!
I commented and my comment was scraped off twice. I asked WHY? It too was scraped off. Do you think this is fair to a facebook user?
Pelosi, invited a member of the hate group, who call Christians and other religions,
INFIDELS!!! Shame on you, Pelosi….
She claims to be a Catholic. Ha, she will burn fast in hell. She endorsed killing innocent LIVE BABIES. BURN , -ITCH BURN.
My comment was scraped off … twice. I asked why.? Scraped off. Do you feel this is fair treatment for a facebook user?
Get off Facebook, instead go to onepoliticalplaza dot com. Discussions are allowed and encouraged. 🙂
How stupid can we get as Americans? On 9-11 this Islamist’s comrades murdered nearly 3,000 innocent people! So what do we do in the nearly two decades after that event? Instead of dealing with Islam as a totalitarian political ideology disguised as a religion, we make excuses for these barbarians, we import them by the thousands, we elect them to political office, and ask them to lead us in prayer! Take about a true Trojan Horse! Talk about stupidity!
