OBAMA HOSTS ANNUAL IFTAR DINNER FOR MUSLIMS AT WHITE HOUSE
BY DEB RIECHMANN
WASHINGTON (AP) -- President Barack Obama is sending greetings to Muslims around the world who are marking Islam's holy month of Ramadan (RAH'-mah-dahn).
Obama opened the White House to Muslim Americans on Monday for a traditional iftar dinner, which follows daily fasting from dawn to sunset. Ramadan ends with the Islamic holiday of Eid al-Fitr (ayd ahl-FIH'-tur).
In brief remarks, Obama recounted the killings of three young Muslims Feb. 10 in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, and the recent deaths of nine black church members in Charleston, South Carolina.
He says Ramadan is a reminder that no one should be targeted because of how they worship.
Yo, maybe somebody should check and see if Obama celebrates Ramadan?
