Government Historians Admit Statue Of Liberty Was Originally A Muslim Woman
This is likely to be a little tough to swallow for some Americans but The Statue of Liberty - symbolically welcoming the world's tired, poor, and huddled masses - was originally conceived as a Muslim peasant woman.
As The Hill reports, The Statue of Liberty was originally designed to be a Muslim woman, the Smithsonian Institution's magazine says.
An article on the government-administered museum’s blog, Smart News, claims one of the designers of Lady Liberty drew inspiration from monuments in Egypt and originally intended to construct a veiled female peasant on the Suez Canal.
The Statue of Liberty was originally conceived as a Muslim peasant woman and was to have stood at the approach to the Suez Canal, a lantern in her upraised hand serving as both lighthouse and a symbol of progress.
But the sculptor, Frederic Auguste Bartholdi of France, proved unable to sell the idea to the khedive of Egypt, Ishma’il Pasha. Bartholdi remained determined to erect a colossus on the scale of the one in ancient Rhodes. He sailed to America with drawings of the Muslim woman transformed to the personification of Liberty.
At first, Bartholdi considered the tip of Manhattan and Central Park as possible sites. He was on a ferry to Staten Island when he decided that Bedloe’s Island would be just the spot.
And there she now stands, the Muslim woman turned to Lady Liberty, the light in her upraised hand symbolizing so much more than simple progress, the inscription at the base words from the poet Emma Lazarus that are familiar to us all:
“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!”
To truly be Lady Liberty, the figure built with kids’ coins and originally conceived as a Muslim must remain a Muslim as well as a Christian and a Jew and a Hindu and a Buddhist and every other faith, even no faith at all.

I'd be happy to see it taken down if they wish to claim this obligates us to a specific course of action on immigration or refugee policy.
So lady Liberty was supposed to look like a freaking ninja. How twisted this nation has been all along with the mother fucking masons that rule it.
Her name was originally "Lady Allahiberty," but they knew it wouldn't sell until 2015.
"Come get your souveniers at Alan's Snackbar, price is good"
Wrap her in the Constitution and drop it in the Marianas Trench........
Actually, the model for the statue was an early LBGT follower who was a cross dressing cokehead from Chicago. In compliance with this new finding, the Park Service will change the sign on the statue to: "Welcome To Obamaland." Caitlin Jenner will host the MSNBC special on the new history of the statue, which will be renamed "The Homeland Statue."
No, that is wrong
It will be called 'The Homoland Statue"
dsty, you beat me to it. LOL
hObamaland?
Good post, but I prefer the "Statue of Democracy:, since liberty is now a forgotten value, and we must all obey what the 51% votes for, and of course, keep paying.
It's just a coincidence that government historians discovered this when 0'Muslim is trying to flood America with 2 million Muslims
Your skepticism aside, they did find Frederic Auguste Bartholdinext's passport next to the original Muslim chick statue of liberty sketch.
If she were a Muzzie - then we didn't let her reach the mainland - did we?
Obama is the first Muslim woman president.
This is the biggest pile of bullshit I've ever read on zerohedge. REALLY? A muslim? WTF! Where is the veil? I guess no one but me has read about the author and whose image that really was.
The Islam is founded by the Rabbi of Mekka! Mohamed did get all his information from the jewish Talmud-Rabbi!
The freemasons are founded by the Talmud-Jews.
The freemasons founded the USA, so it is possible that the "sister" Company Islam, gave a present to the Freemasons.
All guided by their "mother" Company, Tamud-Jews!
If you can read german, please read:
Woher stammt der Islam?
Wer steuert den Islam?http://www.verlag-anton-schmid.de/islam.php?v=n130
They have a muslim in the white house, so why not in new york as well
Perfect example of revisionist history to fit the moment.
Did you know that Thomas Edison and Nikola Tesla were Muslim too? "Thomas Allah Edison" and "Nikollah Tesla."
Gotta thank the overlords for keeping us safe this whole time.
Considering it is not allowed to create a statue in Islam, it is a pathetic attempt at revision as well. It is a complete fabrication.
And I should believe what the government says about anything?
You've just been lied to for the last 200 years, that's all. It feels like a freaking matrix come to think of it.
Lady Liberty is actually the godess Ishtar. Free Masons gave us her so she could one day watch Boaz, Joachim & Solomons Temple [Building 7] collapse.
I'd be happy to say, who gives a shit? Of what use is this information?
Who cares? As long as she's hot and willing.
Muzz like to kill anyone who converts, so tear that bitch down, melt anything of value, and turn the rest into ballast and use it in a bombing raid.
Seriously, what a bullshit article. It's like saying the Ford Mustang was originally a family sedan (Edsel) that didn't sell, so when they used the platform to make a 2 door coupe it was still a family sedan. Crock of shit logic ... from the Daily Beast ... aka leftist shitrag, of course.
Maybe if she was originally supposed to be sold to Mexico, we need to welcome all the illegals too? Yeah, right.
Custodian finds newborn baby abandoned in manger of N.Y. church nativity scene

Away in a Manger
Away in a manger, no crib for a bed,
The little Lord Jesus laid down his sweet head.
The stars in the sky looked down where he lay,
The little Lord Jesus asleep in the hay.
The cattle are lowing, the baby awakes,
But little Lord Jesus no crying he makes.
I love Thee, Lord Jesus, look down from the sky
And stay by my cradle til morning is nigh.
Be near me, Lord Jesus, I ask Thee to stay
Close by me forever, and love me, I pray.
Bless all the dear children in thy tender care,
And take us to heaven, to live with Thee there.
LOL when you think you have heard it all.
Just like when Obama said he'll never raise taxes, right? Turns out nothing but Dope and Change for you.
Shit, that is funny.
We should just take that thing down and build a border with it. That or... turn it around and put a sign on it saying "Sorry we are full, we would take more wretched and starving but with no jobs, riots and explosions and Europe we have decided to close up shop. Canada is due north and they have socialized medicine... have a nice day"
Next thing we'll hear is that BHO is a Christian. Dang, put the bong down Scotty and beam me up!
ahahaha
Funny thing is, they didnt mention that idols, three dimensional images of animate beings are PROHIBITED in Islam. Mohammed himself gave orders to destroy pagan statues such as Hubal, Manat, Al-lat, al-'Uzzá etc. In fact there was even a group in the US that wanted the statue of liberty removed as it was offensive to Muslims, google it.
Straight from the Quran on why these statues are not allowed for "fundamentalist" muslims who follow the Quran to the letter:
http://islamqa.info/en/20894
BTW, from that TheDailyBeast article:
"Never mind that, at the very most, only one of the Paris attackers was a Syrian refugee. The rest are confirmed to have been either French or Belgian."
WHEN WILL THEY LEARN! They WERE NOT ETHNIC French, they were children of PREVIOUS refugees and immigrants, just because the first generation of Syrians will do "OK"(maybe - Germany police chief said that lots ethnic/religious conflicts even in refugee camps between muslim refugees and other non-muslim refugees) does not mean their children will integrate, in fact in Europe most jihadis and Islamic extremists are 2nd and 3rd generations.
Magic Dirt Theory and Imagine trumps genetics and history, you raycist.
Mass graves trump multiculturalism, and history is quite clear on that too.
That is a phenomena with Mexican immigrants as well. The first generation is fine, the next generation the kids are joining gangs, not all of them....of couse.
They must have decided the "statue of submission" didn't have the same ring to it, though it better summarizes the state of America today.
Well, damn. I'm the first to admit when I'm wrong. This propaganda knob does go to eleven.
Somebody better tell Columbia / Isis / Semirama that there is only one God and Mohammed is his prophet.

I always thought she needed bigger tits -
she will eventually. idiocracy rules.
If Trump wins, he'll take care of that problem.
Trump should melt down the statue and reprocess the concrete base to build the Beaner Wall. Take the brass plaque of that insidious Jewish paen to ruining a civilization and cast it into shell casings.
Shovel Ready and Good Riddance.
Maintenance would have been easier, and construction would always be concealed from the public.

More pandering to the Muzzies.
It’s the political propaganda for the in-the-bag filthy-leftist-liberal-progressive media, as they and their political masters are simply terrified the Muzzies are going to unit to begin a religious war against the Christian West.
It’s what they want and the more this pandering appears, the more it signals to the Muzzies that they are winning.
The only criteria we need to allow Muslims into this country is whether they believe in Sharia or not.
That’s the delineation point.

Might as well be a Muslim, transgender, blind, socialist woman with a horse schlong at this point......
bullshit....
OMFG - How fucking stooopid are these revisionist assholes? Mixing up the Statue of Liberty and a project at the Suez Canal that was never built? WTF is this bs?
Bartholdi had a romanesque composite of his mom and Isabella Boyer when he designed the project, which was inspired by a proposed project of the Roman Goddess Libertas wearing the clothes of an egyptian peasant at THE SUEZ CANAL by Count Ferdinand de Lesseps.
Yes bitchez, some of us can still history, so step the fuck off.
...here's a NYPost.com article from 2000 by Eric Fettman (courtesy of the Wayback Machine).
15 years ago it was allegedly a black woman, now it's a muslim woman, surprise surprise. The stupidity fits the times, I guess.
Another 5 years and she'll be a trans-gendered former Olympic athlete.
File this story under 'Turban Legends'.
You'll be telling me Obama is a black man next
Using their reasoning of association, it would e far easier to deduce Obama is a Muslim than the statue of liberty. And lest they forget, she is named for LIBERTY, not Muslim immigration.
i originally concieved her as an alien from mars but no one would buy that so i made her what she is today....what total fucking shit. the statue is what the staue is when built not as some other idea that failed.
Not sure this article could be more inaccurate.
She converted to Christianity. That's why she came to believe in liberty.
What a crock of shit. Snopes did a big fact find on the Statue of Liberty when there were claims it was a black woman. A quick Google search shows this Muslim story is about 2 weeks old and of course everyone pounces on it because it fits their agenda.
http://www.snopes.com/history/American/statueofliberty.asp
Snopes is a couple of old kooks who have been running their little webpage from their living room since the 90's. The only reason anyone knows who they are is that Soros money pushed them up the search engine rankings.
Fuck Google, ya?
So what.
Squid
If we get any more stupid, we will be too stupid to realize it.
Well, we should not offend the Muslims
We need cover it from head to toe in a black Burkha
Welcome you hordes of Muslims
Yearning to be .................
The original idea was for a 'veiled' Muslim woman as a giant lighthouse in honor of the opening of the Suez Canal. That 'lighthouse' was never conceived to be a Statue of 'Liberty'.
Laboulaye had the idea for a Statue of Liberty FOUR years BEFORE Berthokdi got turned down in Egypt. Laboulaye's idea was based on the Roman goddess Libertas (who was not Muslim). Berthokdi used his mother as a model for the statue (who was not Muslim).
So the author is full of sh*t trying to link the design of an Egyptian lighthouse statue with the idea of a statue of 'Liberty' - which was NEVER intended to be a Muslim woman.

If women are covered in copper, I'd like thousands of them. ;-)
Short copper or long copper?
Long skirt, all copper. :-)
The Muslims themselves rejected the statue .... it was completely redone .... or it would have been rejected here .... so the story should be .... Muslim women are treated like dogs by Muslim men .... there are no graven statues that honor them .... the only work in stone for Muslim women .... is when they are buried up to the neck .... and stoned .... it's in the Quran ?
Listen idiots you can plant your stupid rhetorical remarks but you will NEVER be able to conquer the real America. We will stop you in your tracks. Cowards!! Don't be fooled by the weak western media.
You can't conquer the fake America either because it isn't real. One must learn to respect ghosts. Avoid them. Boxing with shadows is only good for practice.
We need a statue of responsiblity on the other coast.
A long as we have a statute of limitations (keep yer distance) we'll be fine.
As were the founding fathers all muslims, masquerading as Christians so they could sell their agenda to the colonials, or so I read in some well respected academic journal - The International Journal of Bullshit Revisionist History I think it was.
This is the kind of horseshit we'll all have to start inventing to protect our lives and property when we're hauled in front of the Cultural Councils and have to defend our reason for existing.
We have met the enemy and *she* is us.
I once was going to make a family movie but no studio wanted the project. So instead I made a cheap porn flick using local strippers.
It's nice when you can help your family succeed on their chosen career path.
Was it the Kardashians?
It doesn't bother any Americans. Americans don't give a shit about that propaganda hatred of Muslims spewed by the murderous slavemasters.
It probably bothers the Neo Con offshoot of Americans, the United Statesians. Those poor dumb bastards believe in the "United States Government", and swallow the lies from that twisted version of America they choose to live in.
We will probably find out someday that the statue is off a bisexual demon goddess who lured and then devoured her mates, she wore a dress made out of dissected labia and a crown of goat dicks. Wouldn't surprise me a bit. Welcome to the party f*ckers!
I like your comment
A Muslim peasant woman? No wonder she was begging for liberty from being treated worse than a Muslim cow
I fought too hard and long in my life for women's rights in America to want Islam Sharia Law snuck in by Obama.Women, take heed and beware
The holy Book says:
'And I saw a prostitute(America) riding a beast, the beast which was dead but became alive(cabal capitalists, israel) and the prostitute making the whole world drunk with the ignoble drink from her cup, in the end the beast will tear apart the prostitute & kill her'
Were do the Saudis, Persians, Turks, and Russia fit in?
A "government historian" you say. Well that means it must be a lie.
The Statue of Liberty was a centennial gift from France.
Maybe a reminder of how a revolution can go just as wrong as theirs did but only in slow motion.
Fuck you, you uneducated clown ... posting "inscription at the base words from the poet Emma Lazarus that are familiar to us all:
“Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free," is simply retarted.
WHAT ABOUT THE FIRST HALF OF THE POEM, ASSHOLE!?
That poem is a huge FUCK YOU to useless Europe and their Muslim-loving, dangerous idiocy. Here's the FULL poem:
Not like the brazen giant of Greek fame,
With conquering limbs astride from land to land;
Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall stand
A mighty woman with a torch, whose flame
Is the imprisoned lightning, and her name
Mother of Exiles. From her beacon-hand
Glows world-wide welcome; her mild eyes command
The air-bridged harbor that twin cities frame.
"Keep ancient lands, your storied pomp!" cries she
With silent lips. "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-tost to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!"
Liberty is just a scheme to liberate your disposable income from you whilst the state rifels through your pockets, bank accounts, and real estate investments for any dime they can appropriate without incurring mass revolt. In brief, under Liberty in the USA the local police can rifel through your belongings when you drive anywhere, and confiscate your money if they want to fill their particular police department coffers. In the USA you are merely a mark in the con at the circus. Lady Liberty is the circus act replete with cotton candy, popcorn, candy apples, and balloons. Wall Street is the Midway at the circus, and the investment bankers are the AssClowns on the parade route.
Trump is the Freak Show on Coney Island.
So rather than yearn for liberty, allow us to DEMAND sustenance from our government, DEMAND a tit of our own to suckle from to nourish our depraved and dependent soul.
Liberty is not a thing to hold in your hand, it is an ideal requiring constant effort and vigilance. It is a constant skepticism of all power as we know that it is always in pursuit of dominance while almost always proclaiming only OUR best interests at heart.
Bullshit. Statues in Islam are forbidden.
Until further notice, here is the true story :
The Statue of Liberty (Liberty Enlightening the World; French: La Liberté éclairant le monde)
designed by Frédéric Auguste Bartholdi and dedicated on October 28, 1886, was a gift to the United States from the people of France.
The statue is of a robed female figure representing Libertas, the Roman goddess of freedom, who bears a torch and a tabula ansata (a tablet evoking the law) upon which is inscribed the date of the American Declaration of Independence, July 4, 1776.
A broken chain lies at her feet.
The statue became an icon of freedom and of the United States: a welcoming signal to immigrants arriving from abroad.
The first version of the Egypt carrying the Light to Asia had a farmer. After 2 years of design changes, the muslim woman was added and at one point she did not hold the light, but carried it on her head.
That said, the State of Liberty is in the style of dozen of other female figures Barholdi did in the past. The muslim women is irrelevant unless you are team Obama trying to make a pointless point.
Muslim?
Why hasn't the Statue of Liberty been droned yet?
I don't think your article is accurate. http://www.howtallisthestatueofliberty.org/what-is-the-quote-on-the-statue-of-liberty/ I think it's a NEW PROGRESSIVE LIE.
Next, the International Journal of Bullshit Revisionist History will uncover the truth that the statutue was modeled after an ancient Greek courageous transgender decathalete. That accounts for the small tits maybe.
Daily Brady is bullshit propaganda outlet.
Statue of Liberty is the aincent goddess Isis , no not Islamic state morons,
She is a fertility goddess common to all medritranin and near eastern cultures
In the bible they call her the great whore Of Babylon
She is the prototype of the Virgin Mary and is also known as Virgo.
I think we should reconsider her status. She should be a colored transgender reborn autistic muslem woman with a prostatic limb. We don't want any minorities to feel left out now, do we?
Anyway, government historian = government approved historical revisionism. Just like NASA spending part of their budget mapping Islamic inventions. That costs money cause they need either to dig very deep or come up with all kinds of constructions to make it sound like Islamic inventions.
missing suicide vest
It could be like an advertisement of what America is all about.
If you aren't a crippled trans-mind - fucked individual, there is no place for you in this society lol
Gone completely batshit crazy.
Wrapped in an American flag.
Muslim women love sex especially getting raped. I don't see why else they would expose themselves to that culture. Some women have rape fantasies and muslim men love raping women.

Government historians admit Ben Franklin established the first fire department in 1736 in order to burn books and historical documents and records.
*Really*?
I Think you have your Franklin's fucked uo what was he -10 years old?
No, he was a bit older......
And to think - after all these years. We have the pResident for it.
So is the Smithsonian going to pony up the dough to strap a bomb vest onto the statue of Liberty? That's a lot of explosives.
If she still has her cl*t it is not a Muslim woman.
This seems like an article you might see on the lower left corner of the cover of national inquirer.. next to charlie sheen
New revelation the statue of liberty is a muslim woman, and after a one night stand with Charlie Sheen is also HIV positive.
He (or she) who stands for everything......stands for nothing
She can still be muslim woman with some modification, just chain her feet to the base, take the book out her hand, replace the Torch with an Ak47 and throw a rag over her face. . . . o wait I am not being politically correct.
Let me modify that

Nothing is sacred anymore.
Gummamint what? Historians? If they'd stop sucking Akbar Obama's cock, they might be believable.
Have to call bullshit on that one - the Statue of Liberty was originally The Colossus of Rhodes - a huge male statue with the sun as a halo, holding aloft a torch of light!
Nothing new in Rome - or in this case Ancient Greece!
Priceless!...LOL
We should all go out and stone that bitch for showing her face in public. That would make her feel at home.
What a bunch of bullshit.
I compared the statues and they are completely different.
That an architect/artist also had plans for a muslim statue is irrelevant, only a cultural marxist journalist would frame things like this.
Hmmmm... I always thought that 'The Statue Of Liberty' was meant to be Hillary - or maybe that was 'The Statue Of TAKING Liberties'...
So if we could lift up her garb, would we see her genitals mutilated?
Complete non-article.....
If we could lift up her garb, we'd likely see a festering, crotch-encrusted pantsuit.
If the Statue of Liberty is not wearing a burqa, then it truly is an affront to fundamentalist, chauvinistic Muslim men. They should be repulsed by the statue and hopefully kept away. (Of course, given Daesh's track record of destroying statues and buildings they find offensive, the open face of the Statue of Liberty may be a Muslim terrorist magnet.)
The turncoat American government is doing everything it can to promote Muslims.
The article makes no sense. Why would anyone consider using a Muslim woman for an American statue? There were few to none Muslims in America at the time. Makes no sense. It makes no sense.
And if your auntie had balls, she be your uncle.
Non story about something that was never built.
I really cant fucking believe I agree with you.. on anything, but on this one I do.. A small patch of common ground.
Wasn't she orginially suppose to be Medusa?
He is totally clueless. Bartholdi was a free mason. The lady is ISTAR or ISIS in some areas of the world. During the Roman area, they used Latin and ISIS/ISTAR came to be named Librti, hence the Statue of LIberty is a model as to what ISIS/ISTAR was to look like. She is also known as the "Whore of Babylon"!
I thought it was like a Freemason thing from France.
TPTB are just messing with your heads. The french have been anti-arab and specially muslim for so long long that you can bet the artist would've never, ever, modeled the statue after one...
The psyops just keep rolling in my friends...
Nothing Surprising in the US.
Now waiting for when Michelle turns out to be Michael
We'll just add an explosives vest and it'll be perfect.
And California is named after a place in Spanish novel derived from the Arabic word Khalifa, or Caliph, meaning leader, so it has the name of a caliphate already. I wonder what Al Abama means?
Bullshit. Creating a statue in Islam is forbidden. They would never make one of a woman either. This is propaganda bullshit from the libtards. It is entirely false. Every aspect of this story is at odds with the actual known history of the statue. It is a complete and total fabrication, and an obvious one.
Sure
I was once a hand model for Marlboro cigarettes as well.
I guess the next "revision" by the cunt liberal mush heads is that The Washington Monument is a giant pointy dildo.
Insert Muslim theocracy .... into our history .... the leftists just rewrite and delete history .... that's how they cope with their miserable LIEVES ?
I heard it was originally to be a waterslide.
Makes sense. Muslim women don't have much liberty these days.
The comments at The Hill article are pretty funny though -
Now that is is a very nice piece of revisionist progressive propaganda timed nicely for our discussions regarding out of control immigration.
The bull shit is strong in this thread, grasshopper.
What multicultural BS claptrap!
So let's reveal how bankrupt the assertions here actually are, shall we?
The articles central premise is that the statue was intended as a Muslim woman because inspired by Egyptian statues.
Q: Are "Egyptian" statues Muslim?
A: No. They were made thousands of years before Muhammad established the Muslim religion.
Q: But might not the artist have been inspired by a more recent statue of an Egyptian Muslim woman?
A: "Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image"...
Muslims don't make statues of people or animals.
So we now know that either this museum spokesperson is unqualified to be there, or holds academic truth as subordinate to ideological correctness...in which case this person need be kept as far as possible from priceless antiquities that they may decide at any time decide offends their political sensibilities.
This person is a Dogmatist.
Wow.
i bet the "history" and "disoovery" channel wants this front and center story, right up there with the quality and well documented documentaries on Megladon, Mermaid, Finding Bigfoot and Ancient Aliens.
don't forget 'climate change'
Bullshit
This is one big stream of lies. People believe anything anyone tells them without checking the source or researching the facts for themselves.
Progessive evilution
Libertarian passive acceptance
"...Smithsonian Institution's magazine says."
The statue of Liberty is Mithra.
Period.
If she has no Vail she must be punished. Isis will see to that.
Historians also concede that she could have a bomb strapped to her inner thigh.
I don't care what the Statue of Liberty was conceived as. Get the Muslims out of the United States until they can control the other 5% that are radicalized.
