- A US Mayor calls Obama Muslim and strands firm as critics rage. Are we really STILL talking about this? lolololol [World Net Daily]
- The War on Christmas is over — Muslim Sufi artists play favorite Christmas songs. Wait, there was a war on Christmas? If my boss was your boss, she’d fire you for that dumb headline. [Politicus USA]
- Muslim girl says teachers teased and scolded her over headscarf. Ten-year old Lulu Abdel Fattah wore her headscarf to school for the first time this past Monday and has faced complete disrespect.
