Madeleine Albright: ‘I stand ready to register as Muslim in #solidarity’

Share:

Madeleine AlbrightFormer US Secretary of State Madeleine Albright said she would “stand ready” to register as Muslim if Donald Trump takes executive action that affects immigrants traveling to the US.

“I was raised Catholic, became Episcopalian & found out later my family was Jewish. I stand ready to register as Muslim in #solidarity,” she tweeted Wednesday.

Trump is considering a ban on refugees for up to four months, according to a draft executive order. The move would make good on one of his most controversial campaign promises aimed at fighting terrorism. Trump has said the order enacting stronger measures on Muslim migrants trying to enter the US is a national security issue. In the days after his election, he also repeated his proposal of a national database to register all Muslims living in the US.


Albright was born in Prague in 1937 but eventually immigrated to the US to flee persecution from Nazis after stints in the UK and Czechoslovakia.

Albright, who endorsed Hillary Clinton in the 2016 election, also tweeted a photo of the Statue of Liberty with a quote: “Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, The wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed to me. I lift my lamp beside the golden door,” her photo said.


“America must remain open to people of all faiths & backgrounds,” Albright added.

Albright is not the only high-profile public figure offering to register as a Muslim. Actress Mayim Bialik also tweeted in solidarity of the movement.

“I’m Jewish. I stand ready to register as a Muslim in #solidarity if it comes to that,” she tweeted.

  1. Velmi dobře . Souhlasím s vámi, sektářství je nemoc

    1. Damned Slovakian Zionists posing as Lebanese “Arzna” took over this site $$$$?.

      1. This is Czech not a Slovakian language. They are close , if you speak oe you can easily understand the other. …Don’t worry I am still Lebanese but having lived in many countries I am multilingual and if you are multilingual you do not automatically become a Zionist. You are multilingual too , you write in French sometimes but I never called you a Zionist . The above comment that I wrote says : “Very good , I agree with you sectarianism is a disease “. I thought it was an excellent Humanitarian gesture by a Czech-American to say what she did. In this discrimination business you never know when your turn comes . The Japanese remember very well what happened to them after Pearl Harbor . I hope more people will have the courage to say what she did . What do you think?

        1. Czechoslovakia..

        2. Don’t worry I am still Lebanese but having lived in many countries I am multilingual

          ‘Don’t worry’; (laughing). Yet, you can’t write Lebanese in either Latin or Arabic alphabet. Keep pretending to be Lebanese, Khazarian Khara.

          You are multilingual too , you write in French sometimes

          That’s because Lebanon was a French colony and a high percentage of Lebanese speak French. You’d know if you were Lebanese, Kharazna.

    2. This isn’t YaCzechRepublic you know Khazarian Kharazna.

  2. She found out later she was Jewish.

    (LAUGHING)

    Good one crypto.

  3. “I stand ready to register as Muslim in #solidarity”, you must be joking.

    I stand ready to register as an Atheist. Can I do that in the Muslim world with any doubt that I would be dead within days.

  6. Her husband should beat her and force her to wear a chador to make her a real muslim woman.

    1. Are you saying Christian, Jewish, Buddhist, Atheist, Hindu men don’t beat their wives?

      1. Not saying that at all because all men have the opportunity to be mean to women, but muslim women seem to fair worse then men in muslim cultures. You don’t believe it?

        1. “muslim cultures.”…
          Wow wow, hold your horses!

          Russian parliament votes to ease domestic violence penalties.
          Russia’s parliament has voted to back a bill that would ease some penalties for domestic violence. Women’s rights campaigners fear it will encourage abuse.
          Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters on Wednesday it was important to distinguish between “family relations” and repeated instances of violence.

          Russian RT channel specialized in demonizing the western coulture, never the Russian.

          “Members of Putin’s United Russia party said the bill would protect parents’ right to discipline their children and reduce the state’s ability to interfere in family life.
          “This is a historic vote because in certain countries the state’s role in family life is way too much,” said Andrei Isayev, an MP representing United Russia. “Today’s vote will end such practices in the Russian Federation.”

          “This law calls for the exoneration of tyrants in the home,” Maria Mokhova, executive director of the “Sisters” crisis center for abuse victims, said. “The message is, ‘Let’s not punish a person who at home beat up his family, just because he has the right to do that,’” she told the Reuters news agency.
          A national problem
          About 14,000 women die every year in Russia at the hands of husbands or other relatives, according to a 2010 United Nations report.”

        2. At least Moslem women don’t have their heads shaven, teeth extracted, wear wigs and dentures like Orthodox Jewish women babies factories 12 children per couple..

    2. Ignorant comment

      1. Yah, that was somewhat bad, I admit. There just seems to be an inherent lack of respect for women in muslim culture, with all that honor killings and Quran based degradation of women that is so prevalent in the muslim world. But yes, all men have an equal opportunity to be mean and bad to women despite which culture they come from.
