Muslim War Hero Sacrificed Himself for All Americans
Humayun Saqib Muazzam Khan (September 9, 1976 – June 8, 2004) was an American citizen and soldier. Born in the United Arab Emirates to Pakistani parents, he moved to the U.S. with his family as a young boy. He attended the University of Virginia, where he was a member of the Army Reserve Officers’ Training Corps.
On graduating in 2000, Khan was commissioned an officer in the United States Army and was deployed as a captain to Iraq during the Iraq War.
In 2004 he was killed in a suicide attack near Baqubah, Iraq, and was posthumously awarded a Purple Heart and Bronze Star.

What could be the final campaign ad from Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton in the home stretch of the campaign is the most devastating.
“In 2004, my son was stationed in Iraq,” Khan says at the beginning of the ad, folding his son’s dress uniform.
He saw a suicide bomber approaching his camp. My son moved forward to stop the bomber. When the bomb exploded, he saved everyone in his unit.
Only one American soldier died.
He was 27 years old, and he was a Muslim American, Khan continued, choking back tears. “I want to ask Mr. Trump, would my son have a place in your America?”

The ad features Khizr Khan – father of deceased Cpt. Humayun Khan, who was killed in Iraq – in his home, clutching the folded American flag he was given at his son’s funeral and staring quietly at a photo of his son.
Jon Stewart Returns to Take Down Trump and the GOP
‘I See Your Bullshit’
Stewart showed up once again Thursday night, July 21. to deliver an old-school Daily Show-style take-down of the Fox News empire that helped make Donald Trump the Republican presidential nominee.
There is no love like a mother’s love. There’s no sacrifice that any mother wouldn’t do for her children. A mother’s love is never ending and totally unconditional.
“IOTD” is image of the day, a concept I came up with. I teach visual meditative therapy – or in easy terms – a mini mental holiday. For some people it is very difficult for them to get their image right. I post an image a day for people to use in their mini mental vacay. Some are serious, some are silly, and some are just beautiful!”’
