Who attended the 2003 Iftaar dinner?

Dear Mr. Pipes,

Reading the sickening comments made by President Bush at the Iftaar dinner this year (2003), if one didn't know any better, one would be hard-pressed to realize that the US had suffered the 9/11 attacks!

Though not a US citizen myself, I find it quite incredible that US politicians such as Bush are pandering to the Muslim community like this. How many Middle Eastern nations, or indeed any other Muslim nations, put on a dinner in honour of Christians at our holy time?

The US, I am sorry to say, is digging its own grave; sowing the seeds of its own destruction.

Sincerely,

Mark
