The President does not seem to get the old Lyndon Johnson adage (this is a paraphrase) "I would rather have them with me pissing outside the tent rather than against me pissing in."
By stopping the end of Ramadan Dinner Tradition and steering domestic counter-terrorist initiatives towards mostly potential Moslem threats, the President is:
1) Making it harder for the 99.9 percent of Moslems to be helpful citizens when the .1 exhibits signs of trouble.
2) Making it seem permissive for white terrorist groups to have more leeway in their activities against other groups.
3) Further reaffirming that his is pretty much a "Whites Only" administration.
