I am outraged and sadden

Mr. Weinstein,
U.S. leaders have called for a day of prayer during times of crisis since 1775 but individuals such as you have the tradition under attack. This is because they  did not have Alah in mind when they called for this day. As a former U. S. Army soldier and Army Sailor who served as a Chaplain’s Assistant, I am embarrassed for you and your attacks of America’s great Christian heritage. Your continued attacks on Christianity by stating that Reverend Graham’s invitation offended Muslim employees at the Pentagon and that it would endanger American troops by stirring up Muslim extremists, are ignorant, shallow and show a great disregard for History. It was a Muslim, Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan, who opened fire on Fort Hood soldiers but I suppose you do not call that evil, I suppose you have your own politically correct interpretation of the event. America’s great Christian history and foundation will not be erased by people such as you. Christians have always been the best great friends of Israel and it was Christendom who defended the Holy land from the barbaric attacks of the Muslims during the crusades and it was  a great majority of Christian soldiers who fought against the Nazis, who were backed by Muslims, during WWII. A Christian worldview got the US involved in the war, not a Muslim world view. What an insult your actions are to our great nation. Your concern for a few Muslim employees at the Pentagon is nothing more than a pretext for your own agenda and personal dislike of Christianity. I hope many Christian employees at the Pentagon speak up against your bigotry and historical revisionism and ignorance. Let’s see if you will defend their right to listen to Reverend Graham who had the courage to call Islam, not Muslims, what it is, and di so in the context of 9/11, after Muslim terrorists committed acts of war on civilian’s. The Koran is an evil religion indeed and history, even present events, clearly show this. A religion which hates Jews and Christians alike. Have you read the Koran? America is not a Muslim nation but with your aid, it just might become one soon. The first day of prayer was declared when the Continental Congress “designated a time for prayer in forming a new nation. A bill proclaiming an annual National Day of Prayer was unanimously passed by both houses of congress. President Truman signed it into law. It required the President to select a day for national prayer each year.
