The United States is not, and never will be, at war with Islam.
The United States is not, and never will be, at war with Islam.
One of the great strengths of the United States is... we have a very large Christian population - we do not consider ourselves a Christian nation or a Jewish nation or a Muslim nation. We consider ourselves a nation of citizens who are bound by ideals and a set of values.
We are not at war against Islam.
The United States has been enriched by Muslim Americans. Many other Americans have Muslims in their families or have lived in a Muslim-majority country - I know, because I am one of them.
America and Islam are not exclusive and need not be in competition. Instead, they overlap, and share common principles of justice and progress, tolerance and the dignity of all human beings.
I have Muslim members of my family. I have lived in Muslim countries.
I consider it part of my responsibility as President of the United States to fight against negative stereotypes of Islam wherever they appear.
