The Mountaintop of Love
Oh the the humanity and the irony that Mr. Khan and his lovely wife both Muslims bestowed upon this nation. They may have done more for our country and the world than even the election of a president could do and maybe they have done more to defeat the ugliness of Trump than any of the logical arguments that could be made against him.
Their pain so emphatically expressed by Mr. Khan and in the soft words spoken by his wife concerning the patriotic death of their beautiful son for our country in Iraq has brought more humanity, unification and love to this nation than anyone has expressed in a very long time.
They are a gift and what has transpired around them are the times I think, perhaps, there is something of a higher purpose. What wonderful people and what a wonderful message they have conveyed with my hope that they have helped ensure Trump be relegated to the ash bin of history and our nation elevated to the mountaintop of love.
