The Smithsonian Museum is claiming that the woman depicted by the Statue of Liberty is a Muslim woman. It appears that the designer, Frédéric-Auguste Bartholdi, visited Egypt in 1855 with the intent of creating a statue of an Egyptian woman for that country. The statue was intended to be an 86-foot tall veiled and robed statue of a woman perched at the entrance of the Suez Canal, but it was too expensive.
Barthold then collaborated with structural designer Alexandre-Gustav Eiffel and redesigned the project to create the Statue of Liberty which was gifted by France to the United States.
For the Smithsonian to come forth and claim that the Lady of Liberty is Muslim sounds to me like a concoction of Barack Hussein Obama's. It would be a stretch to say that the original Egyptian woman was not only a Muslim, but that she was the same model used for the Statue of Liberty.
The next thing we know, they're going to claim that the presidents of Mount Rushmore were all Muslim Imams.
That's MY AMERICAN OPINION, respectfully submitted.
