The Democratic presidential
front-runner addressed all Muslims in observing Ramadan, the Islamic holy month
marked by fasting and prayer.
As we begin
Ramadan, I wish all Muslims a blessed time of reflection, family, and good
health. Ramadan Mubarak. -H

Twitter users questioned
Clinton’s use of “we” in her tweet and whether it meant she was now a Muslim as
well.

As “we”
begin Ramadan? We? RT @WayneMelanson: More useless pandering from the
queen of chuzputt. https://t.co/FhAsCmuagF

Many Twitter users were not
joining the former secretary of state in her greeting.

Yes, thank you for supporting a religion that suppresses women’s rights and
funds international terrorism.

@HillaryClinton
I always hate when politicians have to make those phony announcements.
Politicians should just refrain from it all.
ALL Muslims? Even the ones you
helped to kill Ambassador Stevens, Sean Smith, Glen Doherty & Tyrone Woods?

does that include the families of the muslims, the rebels you helped arm,
killed? https://t.co/che4JID9sq

This is #America. “We” celebrate freedom, and abhor evil.

The correct thing to write would be “As Ramadan begins”…unless you are Muslim.
But I see what you’re trying to do.
