“Nor do we describe our enemy as ‘jihadists’ or ‘Islamists’ because jihad is a holy struggle, a legitimate tenet of Islam, meaning to purify oneself or one’s community, and there is nothing holy or legitimate or Islamic about murdering innocent men, women and children.”…John Brennan

“I consider it part of my responsibility as President of the United States to fight against negative stereotypes of Islam wherever they appear.”…Barack Obama

“I will stand with the Muslims should the political winds shift in an ugly direction.”…Barack Obama
