   I did not understand this statement “Muslims Discovered America”, the first time I heard it, but I figured out what it means.
   It means yes we are here, but because they do not recognise any one else but other “Muslims”, in their minds they have discovered America and are moving in on the first stages of displacing everyone else.
   Arrogant Erdogan and his hoards are coming.

   Islamic Triumphalism just like giving up rifles in Yemen to our enemies.

   He stated that Muslims discovered the Americas first before Christopher Columbus did.

   “At a conference in Istanbul last November, he told a gathering of Muslim leaders from Latin America that Muslims had reached the Americas in the 12th Century – before the European explorer Christopher Columbus did so in 1492.”

   This statement below also doesn’t suggest that Columbus was Muslim. Discovering a mosque (proving that Muslims were here first before him) and worshiping in one are two different things.

   “…Mr Erdogan’s belief is based on a reference in Columbus’ diary of his voyages to a “mosque-like formation” at the top of a mountain but most scholars say the reference was to a natural mountain feature rather than an actual mosque.”

   Therefore, there is no evidence so far suggesting that Columbus was a Muslim.

   Need to ask the Cuban cigar chomper if a church can be built on top of the mosque to commemorate Lief Eriksson’s earlier achievement.

   Erdogan seems to be a student of Williams who now claims: ANOTHER WHOPPER? ‘I Was At Brandenburg Gate The Night The Wall Came Down’…

   On top of the Norse temple on top of the mosque on top of the church must come the Eiffel Tower to honor the Silurians of the Clovis culture from the area now France who seem to have been here before the Asians crossed the Land Bridge of Bering. Oo.la.la!

    I read something in a catalog that gives a book to read about Lewis and Clark and their expedition to the west coast in their trek in 1802:…

    And the info in the write up said something about how The Norsemen were the first ones to discover America, with Native Americans.

    And how some of the native Indians actually back then were secretly found to have been born with “blue eyes”! Something not know to Native Americans!

    And this happened long before Columbus! Lewis and Clark heard about this on their journey!

    This was something that has been hushed up since…and it’s the reason that one of the men was murdered, to keep him quiet!

    And I’ve tried to come up with the name of agency that keeps all the records of things early American…even the library had a problem.

    But they came up with Library of Congress? National Archives? Or something of this nature?
    I wish I could remember (now) what I read in that catalog to order that book! (If I can find it, I will post it.)
