Father of fallen Muslim soldier blasts Trump at convention
ASSOCIATED PRESS
Khizr Khan, father of fallen U.S. Army Capt. Humayun S. M. Khan holds up a copy of the Constitution of the United States as his wife listens during the final day of the Democratic National Convention in Philadelphia.
WASHINGTON >> The father of a Muslim American soldier killed in Iraq posed a question to Donald Trump: Have you read the Constitution?
To rapturous cheers, Pakistan-born Khizr Khan fiercely attacked the billionaire businessman Thursday at the Democratic convention in Philadelphia, saying that if it were up to Trump, his son never would have been American or served in the military.
Khan said that Hillary Clinton, by contrast, “called my son the best of America.”
The address was the latest effort by Democrats to highlight their diversity and criticize Trump’s most contentious plans. Beyond his proposed wall across Mexico, the billionaire businessman has threatened to ban Muslims from entering the United States if he becomes president.
Capt. Humayun Khan died in 2004 when a car loaded with explosives blew up at his compound. He was 27.
Honoring his son, Khizr Khan pulled a copy of the Constitution out of his suit pocket and offered to lend it to Trump.

“Look for the words ‘liberty’ and ‘equal protection of law,’” he said standing next to his wife, waving the paperback document vigorously.
“Have you ever been to Arlington cemetery?” he then asked. “Go look at the graves of brave Americans who died defending United States of America. You will see all faiths, genders and ethnicities. You have sacrificed nothing.”
Khan, who moved to the U.S. in 1980, said he and his wife were “patriotic American Muslims with undivided loyalty to our country.”
“Like many immigrants, we came to this country emptyhanded,” he said, believing that with hard work he could raise his three sons “in a nation where they were free to be themselves and follow their dreams.”
Trump, Khan argued, was imperiling that ideal with his smears of Muslims, women, judges and other groups.
He urged Muslims, immigrants and all patriots to “to not take this election lightly.”
“Vote for the healer,” Khan said, “not the divider.”

The DNC should have announced the ONE terrorist attack in the USA NOT done by Muslims. His son did die a hero, acknowledged.
I’m sorry that you don’t read more, or that you are deliberately lying. There have been a lot of terrorist attacks in the United States committed by non-Muslims. More than I care to list here. But since you don’t seem to know about any of these, here are just a few.
Wisconsin temple massacre
Newtown – Sandy Hook
Tennessee church murders
South Carolina church murders
Centennial Olympic Park bombing
MA Planned Parenthood bombing
CO Planned Parenthood massacre
Oklahoma City bombing / mass murder
Lying doesn’t help build a case.
I’m anxiously awaiting his response…
You two guys must be joined at the hip.
Klas,
Serious is out campaigning for Trump. Big Rally, 2,000 people.
Yes there are some crazy DemocRats out there.
Wisconsin 2012
Sandy Hook 2012
Tennessee 2008
Charlestown 2015
Centennial 1996
MA 1994
CO 2015
OK 1995
ISIL attacks year to date 2016 – 27
Kills 1101
Injured 2435
The sun is shining, the birds are singing. The next attack may be in a neighborhood near you.
Steady Hand.
Be afraid!
Are you ashamed by your cowardice?
It’s still July and we are still counting.
see how the AP lies about Donald trump saying he is threating to ban all muslims from entering the U.S. he did not say that, he said to ban muslims from terrorist countries, like the 56000 Syrian refugees that Obama and Hillary want to let in where a lot of them are young men. take a look at what is happening in Germany and france because they let them come into there country. so having that man come up and speak was nothing but a bunch of lies of what trump said. that’s how the media and t.v. news have brainwashed a lot of americans. Hillary becomes president she will let them in, and watch the terrorist attacks happen in our country.
You are lying. Under intense pressure, Mr. Trump changed his story several times to finally settle on what you wrote. His first several statements about this definitely match what was written in the article.
Trump’s supporters must lie to defend him because what he says cannot be defended. Lying doesn’t help your lousy case, or your incredibly lousy candidate.
Trump is a negotiator. He will demand more because he knows he will have to compromise at the end. My asking price on Craig’s list is always higher than what I’m hoping to get. It’s the nature of the business.
Yes, of course. Proposing major (probably unconstitutional) policy change by the President of the United States is exactly the same as a Craigslist sale.
I can see that you are definitely a Trump supporter!
Craig’s list and national security and the ability to negotiate with world powers?? Why don’t we just get you a tenured faculty seat at Woodrow Wilson and a permanent seat on the UN Security Council………..not.
Ikefromeli – The problem is that people who think like this – in this remarkably defective manner – will actually vote for Trump.
Indeed. Sloth of mind and the inability to even attempt to look at all sources is not just breathtaking, it is emblematic of the low margin of thinking of some folks.
Lighten up guys! Either way we get the usual suspects that justifies the people’s distrust in government particularly career politicians. One an obvious insider and the other an outsider. You can debate all you want and sling insults at each other all the way to the elections and beyond but as far as I can fathom most here has already made up their mind.
Windward_Side – Some people actually want to learn something.
Maybe not many … but some.
Again, you are wrong. Most every pollster, places the undecided vote in the 16-22% range. That roughly translates to 10-12 million voters. No small number by any metric.
ike…maybe if you calm down a little and learn how to comprehend. “…most here…” was a reference to those who are regulars on these SA forums. smh
Again wrong. Most boards, not just SA, has most of its folks reading, and not posting on an everyday basis. Unless, you have some credible form of analytic to suggest otherwise, you are just suggesting a theory.
Yep, tied together at the hip. Definitely.
Ding-Ding and Ho-Ho are up early today.
Sarge22 – you crack me up.
lespark – This from the parrot and ventriloquist’s doll.
The parrot has Ding-Ding and Ho-Ho for lunch. Very tasty but sometimes a bit salty. Bon appetit
sarge22 – Yes sir…..
You are definitely a Trump supporter.
the democrats are reaching into the depths sending hordes of reporters digging in trumps pasts. and when they find a smittence they elevate it to headline news. we can expect this continuously leading to the election. their bias is sickening and is being exposed by trump
auwe! aswyhod!
Ditto, assigning 20 reporters to dig up dirt on Trump. Should have indicated both candidates even though such is not case? Then it may be more in keeping with standards presumed to be followed by the “liberal media.
The problem is the Chump and his big mouth. He provides all the fuel that is needed to burn his hopeless ambitions. His bankruptcies, threats, insults, and outright lies paint a picture of a very deeply troubled person. His successes has come from him screwing over people who trusted him. I have concluded that the majority of his supporters are in many ways just as troubled as him.
They existed in different circles of New York’s ultrarich: Mr. Bloomberg is known as a generous philanthropist; Mr. Trump appears to have been flinty in his giving. Mr. Bloomberg is a supporter of the arts and aligns himself with Manhattan’s sophisticated cultural scene; Mr. Trump relishes in being crude.
Mr. Bloomberg made his billions in finance and technology; Mr. Trump got his start in real estate before becoming a casino magnate and then a reality-show celebrity. Mr. Bloomberg is not overly ostentatious for a man of great wealth; Mr. Trump lIke to brag about his wealth and show it…..so very very telling. First, he has no humility, second, he is a cheap stake and now, we know he is a coward. Great trifecta….
Who the heck cares. America is looking for a President, not who’s on the NY social register.
If Trump is dubious I like dubious. What you see is what you get. Guys like Putin say what’s on their mind and not mind what people say.
We need more of that in Washington instead of the Merry Go Round.
Putin is an autocrat of the first level. His power is that of Houdini, if you will, he makes people disappear into Siberia. If you don’t think he rules by absolute fear, you are far less sophisticated than I already thought. The two forms of governance are so disparate, that to even suggest an analogy is ignorant.
Here are a couple of books for you to read (you do read?): A history of Russia and its Empire, by Kess Boterbloem, and The Man without a Face, by Masha Gessen.
As long as we are making a summer reading list, I would also suggest, The Price of Inequality, Joseph Stiglitz. However, I am ambivalent about such a recommendation, as I am not sure you could get through the fist 10 pages…
I (sadly) agree that reading is not high on the priority list of Trump supporters. I’ve read Stiglitz and Gessen, but not Boterbloem. Thanks for the recommendation.
Not sure if you read the recent Gessen article in the 7/26/2016 New York Review of Books about Trump & Putin. It’s great!
I will look at that article this morning, thanks for the cite.
Stiglitz was married 3 times just like Donald. Maybe you should give Obama those books he wrote. Swoosh. Haha. And don’t kid yourself..
What the heck does multiple marriages have anything to do for an Economist? He is not running for office or some moral platform, moreover, his entire area of study is emperical and binary….do you know the word?
You guys. Too much. The Dem Rats promote Fear. The fear of Trump becoming the potus. Hypocrites.
ext batch of emails to be released by WikiLeaks will lead to arrest of Hillary Clinton – Julian Assange….
The Sea Hag looking appalling unappealing wild-eyed and sounding utterly unelectable. If you can’t charge her you may console yourselves by witnessing her own self-immolation.
She looks and sounds like hell. No way she will be able to salvage her election hopes after tonight’s dog and pony show.
And once in office, Trump will buddy up with Putin, scour/torch the cowardly ISIS scum from the face of the planet and forestall WW3. And maybe the economy gets a boost to boot.
Yes inequality. Vote Libertarian.
sarge22 – You’ve been predicting an arrest for many months.
How’s that working out for you?
So, you want us to be like Russia?
Trump did not say that he would ban all Muslims. He said that he would temporarily ban their immigration until we have a vetting system in place to verify their identity and background. At the present, we have no thorough way to evaluate these people as no real documentation exists on their background. The value of such a temporary ban is illustrated by the latest attacks in Europe. The Dems and their media lackeys continue to push this lie. Note that I am an Independent voter looking for political truth.
If you’re looking for political truth, you won’t find it with Donald Trump.
Or Hillary. Looking for political truth is an oxymoron.
Who the heck cares. America is looking for a President, not who’s on the NY social register.
If Trump is dubious I like dubious. What you see is what you get. Guys like Putin say what’s on their mind and not mind what people say.
We need more of that in Washington instead of the Merry Go Round.
Mr. Putin has dissenting reporters murdered and political opponents either murdered or imprisoned on “trumped up” (a great term in this case) criminal charges.
Mr. Trump admires dictators. You don’t understand that, of course.
This is one of the long list of reasons why Mr. Trump will lose in November. The defeat cannot be humiliating enough for me.
Klastri, tough DNC Convention. Don’t take it out on us.
So, lets recap the dimocrat convention:
1. DNC chair resigns day before the start because of emails where the DNC calls hispanic outreach as “taco bell voters.”
2. Former DNC chair immediately hired by shrillary.
3. Shamed into bringing American flags onto the stage, while the flag is burned outside by people holding Soviet Union flags.
4. Erected two fences outside and one inside to keep out the mass of people that don’t want shrillary while they preach about not needing a border fence.
5. Shouts of “black lives matter” during a moment of silence for fallen police officers.
6. Turn their backs and shouts “no more war” during a Medal of Honor recipient’s speech.
7. Mothers of thugs who were shot by police were invited on stage, but not mothers of fallen police officers.
8. The nominee is interrupted several times by people who don’t like her.
9. Shrillary’s daughter, for whom shrillary got a $900k a year job right out of college, reflects on the low times in the White House but doesn’t mention anything about her dad’s impeachment or adulterous behavior.
10. Mentions Donald Trump more than twice the number of times the RNC mentioned shrillary, but doesn’t once mention ISIS.
Shameful…

This is an important story because Mr. Trump is a coward who avoided the draft. He supposedly has some kind of foot problem that provided a deferment, but in later years, was unable to remember in which foot he had a problem.
Despite his cowardice, Mr. Trump beats his chest constantly about how he would use the military – including in the commission of war crimes that he would order. He is perfectly happy to send others into harm’s way, but didn’t have the courage to go there himself.
He is now transferring his own fear and cowardice to his followers, who seem to be afraid of everything. This is what a demagogue does.
How did Bill avoid the draft?
Bill Clinton isn’t running for President. If you fail at an argument, be sure to change the subject to something that has nothing whatever to do with the question at hand.
That tactic always works.
No argument here, just a question. Your blind infatuation with party dogma clouds your conversation
DPK – No, it doesn’t.
The issue is that I have facts, I practice law, and I read. So when you write things that make no sense, I know enough to take you at your word.
But since others here will grasp at the same non sequitur straw that you did, this is what happened.
Mr. Clinton, as was written about extensively, was not drafted because his birth date come up as 311 out of 366 in the Selective Service lottery. He had earlier signed up for a Reserve Officer program that diverted him from the draft process. He changed his mind about that and withdrew, which prompted a re-classification to A-1 status.
While at A-1, his birth date was selected, and was too high to have been considered for enlistment.
What is A1? Steak sauce?
A.1. Sauce (formerly A.1. Steak Sauce) is a brand of brown sauce produced by Kraft Foods. Sold from 1831 as a condiment for meat or game dishes in the United Kingdom, it was later introduced to North America, where it was marketed as a steak sauce. In May 2014, Kraft Foods announced it was dropping the “steak” from the A.1. name reverting to A.1 Sauce, to “reflect modern dining habits”.[1] Although the sauce is widely available in the U.S. and Canada, in the UK, it is currently only sold by Tesco and Ocado.[2]
What is A-1.
Available for military service….4F, is unfit for service. Plus there are a bunch of categories inbetween
Klastri, Ike
History lesson 101
To put this attempt to insult the next POTUS let’s put this into perspective.
14,Muslims died fighting for America since 9/11/2001. 14.
Saving the Lost Battalion they took hundreds of casualties when the brass gave them up for dead. Sound familiar? Hillary 9/11/2012? The very same Texans who ridiculed their short stature and slanted eyes. AJA lost approximately 800 KIA in 2 years, thousands awarded Purple Hearts and medals including the Medal of Honor. All this while their families were held in concentration camps throughout the United States while Mr. Khan lived in wealth.
They were Budhists, Christians, Americans of all faiths. It didn’t matter.
While you two might not think 800 Japanese lives doesn’t matter you are wrong. 800 killed, thousands bearing emotional and physical scarring for life, Families destroyed.
Immigrants and sons of immigrants and you don’t hear a peep, not one word of complaint.
1 guy gets all this attention. Why? Demo Rats like you.
Hillary will say and do anything. Obama 08
Why are you lying that anyone thinks 800 Japanese lives don’t matter?
Why do you simply make up things out of thin air every single day, and then attribute your lies to me and others?
I am not a liar.
Mr. Khan and his family came to America when things were fairly stable. In a reply I provided statistics how due to a failed foreign policy by the present administration ISIL has become a force in terror. This man’s real beef is with Hillary and Barrack.
Many people believe including Democrats the unbridled influx of Syrian refugees, many of which are possible terrorists should be controlled. The Democrats took this issue and turned into an immigration/religion issue. It just so happens that Islam is the dominant religion. They kill Christians so there aren’t too many left if at all.
If I got up and went to work, got run over and died, that’s life. If Mr. Khan’s son was someplace else he could have survived his deployment and come home and become the next John McCain.
It didn’t work out. I used the example of the AJA (Americans of Japanese Ancestry) to illustrate that they paid the price, helped win the war and went back to work. They did not go to the DNC and attack FDR or Truman.
This is what you wrote: “While you two might not think 800 Japanese lives doesn’t matter you are wrong. ”
You made that up out of thin air. You are a liar.
Call me a Rat again, Les go ahead, do it…and let’s see where this goes.
What do you mean ikefromeli? If your candidate tanked don’t blame me. You are the greatest aspersionist. What’s in your wallet? Crooked Hillary is at Temple. She’s blowing through money.
Let’s make it a race, send your donation now.
Hillary is supported by Wall Street..WOW https://www.opensecrets.org/pres16/contrib.php?id=N00000019
Sarge, what’s wrong with being supported by wall street?
Just now ·
“Donald Trump, you’re asking Americans to trust you with their future,” said Khizr Khan, a Muslim who immigrated when his son was 2 said to Donald J. Trump. “Let me ask you, have you even read the United States Constitution?” Then, to cheers, he pulled out a pocket edition. “I will gladly lend you my copy,” he said.
I seriously doubt that Donald has ever read through the entire document. Rather, it is a source of inaccurate sound bites for him. Without a doubt, you could not say the same as to Bill, Hillary and Obama, who are all, not just students of the constitution, but known intellectuals and academics on its contents.
Ikefromeli, do you know this for a fact or is this just another one of your aspersions directed at President Donald J. TRUMP.
Putin will be at the Inauguration.
Yup.
During a recent closed-door meeting with House Republicans, Michigan Rep. Tim Walberg asked Trump what his understanding is of Article I (which enumerates the powers of Congress).
“I think his response was, ‘I want to protect Article I, Article II, Article XII,’ going down the list. There is no Article XII,” Rep. Mark Sanford (R-S.C.) told reporters afterwards. “It was the normal stream of consciousness that’s long on hyperbole and short on facts.” [Sanford, who said in May he’ll vote for Trump, added: “He may be loose on some facts, reckless on some, but there’s not malicious intent there.”]
Other sources in the room confirmed the episode.
Trump then called himself “a constitutionalist” and warned that “we’re getting away from it,” according to detailed notes from a participant in the meeting, which were provided to my colleague Josh Rogin.
The Constitution, as every school child is taught, has only seven articles.
Those trying to excuse Trump’s flub charitably suggested that he was confused between the articles and the amendments. If so, it seems odd to emphasize his support for the Twelfth, which merely clarified how the Electoral College should work.
Either way, Trump clearly did not understand that he was being asked by Walberg about how he views the relationship between the executive and legislative branches.
It was reminiscent of when Trump quoted “Two Corinthians” during a January speech at Liberty University.
And it was another moment that gave intellectually-honest movement conservatives heartburn.
Yeah, I’m pretty darn sure not only has he not read the entire document, moreover, he certainly doesn’t understand it…..
2016 Republican National Platform Rejects Social Experimentation and Political Correctness in the Military

Ike, you running out of material? Just like Silly Hilly at Temple. Same material.
If you don’t even know the articles of the constitution, you got no business trying to talk about it.
I would consider this funny if it weren’t for that fact that Trump is only one step away from the Presidency. That is scary. I can’t wait until the head to head debates begin. Clinton will eat Trump alive. I can only imagine Clinton pressing Trump for details on this positions and how is Trump going to respond? “Believe Me”?
Yes, I agree. Mr. Trump appears to have a third grade civics education. He’s going to find out what it feels like to walk into a buzz saw against someone who actually knows facts.
Fox News was afraid to cover this speech.
A battle of the brass has broken out in the wake of the Republican and Democratic party conventions, as one of the top generals supporting Donald Trump lashes out at retired Marine Gen. John Allen who delivered a tough-as-nails endorsement of Hillary Clinton in Philadelphia Thursday night.
“I honestly don’t know how John Allen can look at himself in the mirror and say why he supports Hillary Clinton,” retired Army Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn told Fox News….http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2016/07/29/battle-generals-flynn-blasts-allen-for-clinton-endorsement.html
That’s bs, bs. They had to take a commercial break.
Together, the three Khans– two living and one dead– threw their support to Hillary Clinton– the only candidate personally responsible for the continuation of a relentless yet seemingly unwinnable war that sent the Khans’ son to his death, along with so many others.
Hillary– the Khan Family’s candidate– stood by and did nothing– NOTHING– when America’s embassy and consulate in Benghazi, Libya, were besieged by savage Muslim thugs. We now know that Hillary, who was then “Madame Secretary of State,” was taking a nap– one of her many naps– while the whole Benghazi horror show unfolded.
So much for respecting the Captain’s family.
You are as undisciplined as your Savior.
Les, you do time in the service? Service in an advanced position? Crickets — silence.
Wow that was one of the most powerful speeches I have witnessed. Especially the part where he tell Thrump … “You have sacrificed NOTHING!”
Could it be that a major party nominee for president is beholden to Russia’s leader and might compromise the security interests of the U.S. and our allies to maintain that relationship? We don’t know the answer….
We can’t begin to answer the question until Trump releases his tax returns for the last several years. The media should make this the focus of every interview with Trump and senior Trump staff. The Republican Party chairman should urge him to release his returns. The Republican leadership in Congress should insist on it. Every American voter should demand it.
There are legitimate suspicions about whether Trump’s business relationships could compromise his loyalty to our country. Unless and until he puts them to rest, not by dismissing them but by disproving them, he should be considered unfit to hold the office of president. John Mcains Chief of Staff
Could it be that a major party nominee for president is beholden to Wall Street and other overseas interests and has already compromised the security interests of the U.S. and our allies to maintain that relationship? We do know the answer….The FBI and DOJ knows but didn’t have the nut to take it any further.
We can’t begin to answer the question until Hillary releases her speaking transcripts for the last several years. The media should make this the focus of every interview with Hillary and senior Hillary staff. The Democrat Party chairwoman should urge her to release those transcripts. The Democrat leadership in Congress should insist on it. Every American voter should demand it.
There are legitimate suspicions about whether Hillary’s business relationships could compromise his loyalty to our country. Unless and until she puts them to rest, not by dismissing them but by disproving them, she should be considered unfit to hold the office of president.
Ok, let’s do this the same timeTrumo releases his taxes for the last 10 years.
Trumo?? Is that the guy from Minnasota?
Do they call you sarge cause you like to sleep with corporals and privates?
There are legitimate suspicions about whether the Clinton Foundation and her business relationships could compromise her loyalty to our country. Unless and until she puts them to rest, not by dismissing them but by disproving them, she should be considered unfit to hold the office of president.
Says who–you a nobody in Hawai’i?
The historical underpinning of Trump and its rise, has its origin all the way back to the period of enlightenment.
According to Rousseau, modern civilization’s tendency to make people seek the approval of those they hate deformed something valuable in “natural” man: simple contentment and unself-conscious self-love. True freedom in these circumstances could be reached only by overcoming the hypocritical, painfully divided bourgeois within us. Rousseau thought that he had made this effort; he separated himself with a showy fastidiousness from the upwardly mobile man, “the sort who acts the part of the Freethinker.” In his “Dissertation on the Origin and Foundation of the Inequality of Mankind,” he wrote, “In the midst of so much philosophy, humanity, and civilization, and of such sublime codes of morality, we have nothing to show for ourselves but a frivolous and deceitful appearance, honor without virtue, reason without wisdom, and pleasure without happiness.”
Rousseau’s denunciations of intellectuals may have acquired an extra edge from the fact that Voltaire exposed him, in an anonymous pamphlet, as a hypocritical proponent of family values: someone who consigned all five of his children to a foundling hospital. Rousseau’s life manifested many such gaps between theory and practice, to put it mildly. A connoisseur of fine sentiments, he was prone to hide in dark alleyways and expose himself to women. More commonly, he was given to compulsive masturbation while sternly advising against it in his writings.
Like many who moralize against the rich, Rousseau was not much interested in the conditions of the poor. He simply assumed that his own experience of social disadvantage and poverty—though he was rarely truly poor and had a knack for finding wealthy patrons—sufficed to make his arguments superior to those of people who lived more privileged lives. Like many self-perceived victims, he was convinced that no one really tried to feel his pain. Meier, in his dense but precise and enthralling analysis, points out that the epigraph of Rousseau’s last book is the same as that of his first: “Here I am the barbarian, because I am not understood by anyone.” It is actually the least jarring of the many melodramatic notes he struck during an intellectual career driven by self-pity and recrimination.
Yet, because Rousseau derived his ideas from intimate experiences of fear, confusion, loneliness, and loss, he connected easily with people who felt excluded. Periwigged men in Paris salons, Tocqueville once lamented, were “almost totally removed from practical life” and worked “by the light of reason alone.” Rousseau, on the other hand, found a responsive echo among people making the traumatic transition from traditional to modern society—from rural to urban life. His books, especially the romance novel “Julie,” vastly outsold those of his peers. The story of a nobleman’s daughter who falls in love with an impecunious young tutor, “Julie” was the best-selling novel of the eighteenth century. As Damrosch notes, it dealt with characters whose “rural obscurity gave them a greater integrity than city sophisticates had.” The characters’ hard-won wisdom, a theme throughout Rousseau’s novels and other works, made them as popular with Kant, in Königsberg, as with quietly desperate provincials throughout Europe.
I spent some time in the law library today. Looks like Trump may have violated the Logan Act and other federal crimes in his appeal to Mr. Putin regarding cyber espionage. Trump is an existential threat to the republic. He’s never been a good person – judged by any reasonable standard – but he is now digging so low, it’s bordering on insanity.
He does not appear to have received even a 4th grade civics education. There’s no way to provide appropriate special education to him in advance of receiving classified security briefings.
Trump is a pathetic and bottomless black hole. His supporters should all be ashamed of themselves.
Most if not all the AJA 442/100 didn’t read the Constitution either. Mr. Khan would not be in America if not for American blood on the shores of Tripoli, the mountains of Korea, the jungles of Vietnam, the deserts of the Middle East. Mr. Khan is a New York Democrat attorney. Not only his son died. His beef should be with Obama/Clinton.
“However, the unit’s exemplary service and many decorations did not change the attitudes of the general U.S. population to people of Japanese ancestry after World War II. Veterans were welcomed home by signs that read “No Japs Allowed” and “No Japs Wanted”, denied service in shops and restaurants, and had their homes and property vandalized.”
So now you’re criticizing Captain Khan’s family. “Not only his son died.”
Did you have a son die in war trying to save his men?
Is nothing below you? Do you simply have no shame? Are you simply the scum of the earth?
