Has Trump killed his political hopes?

[knkali]

Has the Kahn family debacle been the death of his campaign?

[b4uqzme]

No.

[DanTana]

The Dims will try to make this a make or break issue, when in reality the Khans are another Dimocrap prop and Trump never attacked them. They attacked him at the DNC. Another diversion tactic.

[b4uqzme]

I just finished searching several Google pages looking for what Trump actually said: in its entirety, in context. No luck. But I found lots of bashing and criticism. I think DanTana is right.

I too am a little ticked at what Mr. Khan said: "You have sacrificed nothing". Trump is no different than millions of us who have not lost a daughter or son in the middle east. Is Khan condemning all of us? No disrespect for his great loss but is losing a child the only sacrifice that counts? What about those who have lost family members domestically? To terrorists? Do their sacrifices count by Mr. Khan's standards?

This is unfortunate smoke and mirrors. I wish people would not let their tragedies be played for political gains...on both sides.

Meanwhile Hitlery is in a duel with Dorothy Woods, wife of slain ex-SEAL Tyrone Woods during the Benghazi attacks. Mrs. Woods is upset that Hitlery says it's time to "move on" and is being dismissive regarding the incident.

Just like to add this open letter from a former U.S. Army officer to the Khans. It is not derogatory or mean, but just tries to explain the what and why of the times we live in.

If I was Dorothy Woods, I'd feel the same way. In fact I'm not Dorothy Woods and I still feel the same way.

I'm currently reading 13 hours in Benghazi. Just started. Supposedly the real story with no politics or judgment involved.

Hitlery does love to tell people what to do and what to think. I don't listen to or care what she says so she should probably just save her voice box for screaming when she hits the fires of hell along with all her friends. Sooner the better.

This is just more propaganda, don't let it bother you.

From Walid Shoebat:

The Muslim who attacked Donald Trump, Khizr Muazzam Khan, is a Muslim Brotherhood agent, working to bring Muslims into the United States. After reading what we discovered so far, it becomes obvious that Khan wanted to ‘trump’ Trump’s Muslim immigration policy of limiting Muslim immigration into the U.S.

I recommend that every time a Muslim is quoted in the news, you mentally assume he means the exact opposite of whatever he says.

thanks for the straight talk---

I've been unfortunate to have worked with Muslims. It doesn't take long to see through the veil. Ever read The Screwtape Letters by CS Lewis?

[JohnR]

That's on my reading list, thanks for reminding me!

Nope.

Not at all!

An Open Letter to Khizr Khan July 31, 2016

Comments are closed. People were angry I could not keep up with 1000 plus comments. Sorry.

Dear Mr. Khan,
I want to preface this letter by stating that I respect your son’s sacrifice for this great nation. By all accounts, he is a true hero that sacrificed himself in service to our country. For that I am thankful.
As a veteran, I watched your comments at the Democratic National Convention with a mixture of sadness, and anger. The United States has a military comprised of volunteers. Every single member has made the conscious choice to join the military and serve. There is not a single service member who has been forced into service. It is important for all service members (and apparently, their families) to understand that service to this great nation does not imbue one with special privileges or rights. I found your comments troubling when you said: “Have you ever been to Arlington cemetery? Go look at the graves of brave patriots who died defending the United States of America. You will see all faiths, genders and ethnicities. You have sacrificed nothing and no one.”
Does it matter whether Mr. Trump has sacrificed “…nothing and no one?”…has Ms. Clinton “..sacrificed” for this nation? How about Mr. Obama? Your comment stating that Mr. Trump “…has sacrifice no one” is alarming. Are you intimating that YOU sacrificed? Sir, your son willingly sacrificed himself. As a father I cannot imagine the pain you must feel but his sacrifice is his own. He was not forced to serve.
I am troubled that you would allow a party that has little more than contempt for the US Service Member to parade you into the DNC to denounce Donald Trump. Did you watch when protesters at the DNC booed and heckled Medal of Honor recipient Capt. Florent Groberg? Did you notice your party interrupting the moment of silence for slain police officers? Your own hypocrisy in not denouncing these acts and instead using the DNC as a platform to make a political point is disgraceful. The simple fact is that whether one served or sacrificed does not give greater power to their statements. One vote is as valuable as another. That sir, is why our Country is great. Your condemnation of one person for a statement while standing idly as your party disparages veterans and police officers is the height of hypocrisy.
To conflate the need to prevent potential terrorists from entering our country with the belief that ‘all Muslims’ should be banned is simply wrong and disingenuous. As a reminder, Mr. Trump said: ” “Until we are able to determine and understand this problem and the dangerous threat it poses, our country cannot be the victims of horrendous attacks by people that believe only in Jihad, and have no sense of reason or respect for human life,”The irony of your son’s own death at the hands of these very people in Iraq should not be ignored. I have little doubt that your son would have recognized the need to protect our country from these very people. In fact, he held is own troops back so that he could check on a suspicious car. Your son understood sacrifice and how to protect “his people”…’his soldiers’….’his fellow Americans’…
As you continue to make the media circuit and bask in the glow of affection cast upon you by a party that has little regard for your son’s own sacrifice, and veterans in general, I would ask you to consider your comments and your position more closely.
Respectfully,
Chris Mark
US Marine and Navy Veteran.

New Information On Khizr Khan Sheds Light On His Opposition To Trump

"... notoriously abused ..."
Gerry Urbanek August 1, 2016 at 5:50pm


Featured at the Democratic National Convention as an ardent critic of Donald Trump, Khizr Khan — the father of a Muslim-American U.S. soldier killed in Iraq — has been hailed as a hero as he continues to speak out against the Republican presidential nominee.
However, details about Khan’s background are emerging that might at least partially explain the motivation behind his dislike of Trump, the Washington Times reports.
According to his website, Khan — an immigration lawyer — helps clients gain E-2 and EB-5 visas, which provide green cards to foreign investors along with their families. Yet this particular visa program is highly controversial and has been accused of allowing foreigners to buy residency.


“The E-2 and EB-5 are two of the most notoriously abused visa categories that essentially allow wealthy foreigners to buy their way to U.S. residency, and possibly citizenship, with a relatively modest investment,” said Jessica Vaughan, policy director for the Center of Immigration Studies.
“The EB-5 is literally a ‘citizenship for sale’ program in which a visa for a whole family can be bought for as little $500,000. … It’s an amazing deal. Compared to other countries, America is the Walmart of investor visa programs,” she added.



In exchange for their $500,000 investment, immigrants who opt for this program receive green cards for themselves, their spouses and all of their children under the age of 21.
In addition to complaints about the pay-to-play nature of these visas, there have also been instances where immigrant investors are scammed out of their money.
While there is no indication that Khan has been involved in any shady business dealings, some individuals might see Trump’s stance on immigration as a threat to such lawyers, who undoubtedly stand to profit from our current immigration system.
Furthermore, Khan’s background in Islamic law has raised several questions pertaining to his ideological motivations. Writing in 1983 for the Houston Journal of International Law, Khan said that all judicial systems must be subordinate to Sharia law, otherwise known as Islamic law.

“All other juridical works which have been written during more than thirteen centuries are very rich and indispensable, but they must always be subordinated to the Shari’ah and open to reconsideration by all Muslims,” wrote Khan in his work, “Juristic Classification Of Islamic Law.”
In other words, all legal systems and juridical works should be open to reconsideration by Muslims and must be subordinate to the law of Islam, including the U.S. Constitution.
To make matters worse, Khan credits Said Ramadan — the head of the Islamic Center in Geneva and a major figure within the Muslim Brotherhood — as a contributor to his writings.
Considering this background, it is interesting that he would question Trump’s support for, or knowledge of, the Constitution.
