This new stamp has no English on it except for price of stamp. The stamp clearly (in Muslim language) commemorates a very high holy day. Do we now cater to Muslims? Is this proper for us to honor Muslims who have killed many thousands of Americans all over the world? I am personally furious over this show of stupidity by our postal service. How do you feel?

With your thinking, we should eliminate Christmas stamps, Hannakah (sp) stamps, Kwanzaa, Easter and Halloween.

That stamp has been on the market for a few years now. So whats the big deal? if you hate muslims then dont buy the stamp, no one is forcing you to buy an islamic stamp. Please stop being intolerant of other religions and cultures just becz you are a person that want to band an entire nation of people due to the few sickos viewed and hyped by the media. There has been many christian and jewish stamps on the market for years. USPS realizes that Muslims are a large majority of America now. Thank you.

There are postage stamps that represent Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha, the days after Ramadan's end and the end of the Hajj pilgrimage respectively, and they've been out for a while. My question to you is, who cares??? There are way more postage stamps that commemorate Christian and Jewish holidays as well. No money goes to terrorist organizations when you buy Islamic postage stamps, so what is the big deal?

America honors everyone, only a few Muslims are the bad apples, most are just like everyone else in America..The constitution gives us the right to worship as we please..I am a christian and O.K. with the stamps..show a little tolerance...
