Muslims are expert liars. Groups like CAIR and ICNA will tell you with a straight face that there is “no inherent conflict between the normative values of Islam and the U.S. Constitution and Bill of Rights.” Or that “secular legal systems in Western democracies generally share the same supreme objectives, and are generally compatible with Islamic Sharia.”
BNI readers know better, but I bet there are 100 people you know who do not. Only 4 states have passed anti-sharia legislation. At least 6 have voted it down, and many more are considering it. We need to educate our legislators because the only ones they are hearing from now on a regular basis are the sharia-promoters from Muslim pressure groups.
Arizona, Tennessee, and Louisiana, S. Dakota, and just recently Kansas passed an anti-foreign/sharia law bill. Missouri chose not to vote on it so it died for this year. Oklahoma put it to a referendum and it was approved by more than 70% of the electorate. An activist left wing judge overturned it, saying that banning sharia law is ‘unconstitutional.’ Next time, they will not call it sharia law, but foreign law, and it will not be overturned. New Jersey voted it down. Florida and Missouri didn’t put it to a vote, and thus it died…for now. Contact your representatives.
Radical Islam The ICNA campaign to soften and whitewash sharia for American consumption is based on dizzying historical spin, as demonstrated by Zulfiqar Ali Shah, (also known as Al Fokkar Ali Shah and Tho Al Fokkar Ali Shah), the former president of ICNA and current executive director of the Fiqh Council of North America. His showcase essay, “Founding Father’s [sic] of America’s Indebtedness to Islamic Thought,” makes the specious argument that John Locke, the authority behind much of the Founding philosophy, had a “political outlook [that] closely resembled the Islamic teachings.”
Shah (under the variant “Zululfokka Shah”) is also listed as a scholar associated with the Assembly of Muslim Jurists of America. This committee of Islamic sharia experts, “established in response to the growing need of an Islamic jurisprudence specific to Muslims in the West,” has issued a 47-page manifesto that teaches highest allegiance to Islamic law and reveals fundamental disregard for the American Constitution as Muslims are instructed on the fine points of living and governing under infidel systems, applying man-made law and working as judges or lawyers.
To the Muslim who must act as a judge applying law other than sharia, the document encourages defiant judicial activism, directing him to “rule by [sharia] in every case brought before him, or at least as close as he’s able.” ” If a Muslim judge follows the AMJA document’s injunction to “in his heart hate the man-made law,” it is certain that his judgments will reflect sharia standards, not the will of the American people expressed as law made by their elected representatives.
IPT The Islamic Circle of North America(ICNA) is preaching a global Caliphate and Islamic Shari’a law over America to its members, according to the 2010 ICNA Member’s Hand Book. This is a very different message than the group’s public outreach efforts, and contradicts claims that the organization is a tolerant, mainstream Islamic group.
As the hand book spells out, the organization’s ultimate goal is “the Establishment of Islam” as the sole basis of global society and governance. It also encourages members to deceive people in its proselytizing campaign to help fulfill this goal. This aim is one that ICNA has been actively pursuing as the group has set its sights on America’s constitutional separation of religion and state.
As the hand book explains, ICNA doesn’t just believe that religion is a private affair. “Establishment of the Religion” extends beyond the individual and family and into the society, state, and world. ICNA’s charter is even more explicit. It calls for the “establishment of the Islamic system of life” in the world, “whether it pertains to beliefs, rituals and morals or to economic, social or political spheres.”
For ICNA, this means being the American branch of a global phenomenon that they refer to as the ‘Islamic Movement.’ The 2010 Hand Book notes, branches of this movement “are active in various parts of the world to achieve the same objectives. It is our obligation as Muslims to engage in the same noble cause here in North America.”
The group also realizes that achieving its aim is a slow process and involves several stages. In a section called, “Levels of work by the Islamic Movement,” ICNA lists five stages to attain a global Caliphate. The group advocates spreading its view of Islam to Muslims and non-Muslims alike, starting with the individual and family, and then implementing the “Establishment of the Religion” in the society, state, and global level.
DANGER! A’ sharia-compliant’ NON-Muslim judged in Pennsylvania admonished the victim of a beating by Muslims for wearing a Halloween costume that was offensive to Muslims. Then he dismissed the case.
In the early stages, members pass through the “Tarbiyah Process,” an education consisting of radical literature promoting Islam in place of Western systems at later stages in the Islamic Movement. “The adoption and adaptation of capitalist, socialist, communist or other manmade systems, either in whole or in part, constitutes a denial of Islam and disbelief in Allah the Lord of the worlds.”
At the “Societal Level,” ICNA advocates Islamist solutions to society’s problems while providing social services and proselytizing to non-Muslims. WhyIslam is a subdivision of the Dawah [proselytizing] Department” that “works to promote Islam among non-Muslims.” However, the document instructs ICNA members to state a different mission by WhyIslam to non-Muslims, one that wants to “build a bridge of understanding between Muslims and Non-Muslims” and “to educate the American public with accurate information of Islam.”
In the next stage, called the “State Level,” Islam gains traction in a larger segment of society” and “a good part of the society’s thinking individuals join the movement. Then it may move to establish an Islamic society, obedient to Allah’s commands.”
The struggle then reaches the “Global Level” with worldwide ambitions. Wherever the Islamic movement succeeds to establish true Islamic society, they will form coalitions and alliances. This will lead to the unity of the Ummah [Muslim nation] and towards the establishment of a Khilafah [Caliphate].

“At what point will the West politely say, ‘No, we will not be intimidated by your rage. We will not be coerced. We will not be frightened into dhimmitude by people who cannot tell the difference between a design and the name of their prophet?

Islam’s god is the opposite of Our Glorious, Awesome, Magnificent God of the Universe. The Koran teaches hate violence and murder of non-Muslims-those who worship our Wonderful Creator. The Koran teaches to massively break God’s Law: YOU SHALL NOT MURDER.
really ms. rivera are you that inept that you do not even know what your own bible teaches you to do? trust me if you did you’d realize that what you say islam teaches is pale in comparison to the bible. i think though you are just another shallow christian that limits your knowledge to Matthew mark Luke and john. besides if you did your research outside the bible you would know that mary was married to joseph a 72 yo man at the tender age of 16.
All states need laws against COUSIN MARRIAGE.
COUSIN MARRIAGE is the sociological crazy glue of this DEATH CULT that makes honor-killing and misogyny effective!
Kill cousin marriage: kill Islam.
the problem with cousin marriage is the western women dont know this. theyh trust them around those other women when they go home.
Islam teaches Muslims to lie and deceive to intensely hated non-Muslims. Huge slave trader, Mohammad, founder of Islam, who married a six year old child when he was in his fifties, declared:

Why is CAIR, ICNA, and the other Muslim Brotherhood organizations not prosecuted for sedition?
“An activist left wing judge overturned it, saying that banning sharia law is ‘unconstitutional.”
Just how can banning a so-called religion’s laws unconstitutional. This judge is a traitor to the U.S. Constitution and should hang for such treason.
JO, the OK judge and the appellate judge agreed. The Muzloiyahs argued that it discriminated only against muslims. So now the states are taking out all refs to sharia and calling it foreign law. Of course the no foreign law rule already is in our constitution so it shouldn’t be an issue. Problem is, judges are using sharia in rulings involving muslims. Judges who do that should be removed. Instead we have to fight it on a state by state basis.
It’s time to make the practice of Islam illegal because it is a political tyranny, not a religion. Close all the mosques, make it a crime to dress like a muslim, close all Islamic schools and watch how quick most of them leave.
There is something wrong with us Americans who are still
so helpless dealing with such a crystal-clear issue as
Islam invasion into this country!!! Are we about to repeat
the sleepy Europeans attitude towards the invaders?
Americans, wake up !!!
Religious law of any sort is never compatible with democracy. Religion, (paricularly montheistic religions such as Islam, Judaism, and Christianity) by its very nature, is absolutist, insisting that its law is given by a Absolute Authority i.e. a Deity, is inviolable and immutable, is undeniable. And whoever contradicts such law deserves to die. This certainly fits Islamic law, but it fits the description of laws by other religions too such as Ultra Orthodox Judaism, and hardcore Fundamentalist Christianity. That is the reason the Founding Fathers insisted of a strict separation of Church (also Synagogue, Mosque, Temple) and state, and the Constitution prohibits the government from establishing a state religion. And even though Christianity is the dominant religion of the United States, even Christianity is not permitted to become the state religion.
WRONG!!!! All of our Western law is based upon a Judæo-Christian ethic; furthermore, the “separation of Church and State” was done ONLY so that they (the Founding Fathers) wouldn’t end up having to favour a specific denomination of Christianity (e.g., Catholicism, Anglicanism, Lutheranism, &c.!!!
All too often atheists want to throw the entire Judæo-Christian ethic out of the window, thus expelling the baby with the bath-water – and that’s why all too many of them (NOT all, but I here remember even close relatives of mine!) happen to be leftists…
No it isn’t. Our country was not founded strictly upon Judaism and Christianity. While it is true that Judaism and Christianity did and still do influence our laws and legal system, our Founding Fathers actually worried about (any) religion taking over our country and turning it into a theocracy. That’s why they made the separation of church and state.
This piece of vile propaganda from the religious Christian right wing is just as insidious as Sharia law from the Muslims.
Our Founding Fathers came from a broad religious spectrum. Some like Patrick Henry were what would be called Fundmentalist Christians today, others like Ben Franklin and George Washington were Deists, but did not subscribe to a hardline Christian belief, and others were like Jefferson, who was a theist, and thought of Jesus only as an ethical teacher, but denied his Deity, his atoning sacrifice on the cross, and his miracles and resurrection. And Thomas Paine, though he believed in God, rejected any sort of religious orthodoxy and valued reason and logic over faith.
Our population also came from a broad spectrum too. There were Jews, Catholics, Baptists, Anabaptists, Presbyterians, Lutherans, and yes, there were even some Muslims (usually called Musselmans or Muhammadans in those days), mostly slaves.
And the basis of their rejection of founding the nation upon religion came from the recent example of the theorcratic Salem colony, which was a disaster. It is a well known fact that the Salem, Massachusetts colony was a deeply religious colony founded upon the Bible. And their founders created the colony having escaped religious persecution in England. They lived in strict intepretation of the Bible, forbidding dancing, drinking alcohol, music, art, gambling, sexual promiscuity, women were forced to wear drab all concealing clothing — they would give Taliban a run for its money.
Though they escaped religious persecution themselves, soon they began persecuting others such as Jews, Mennonites, Quakers. And this is the same community that became known infamous witch mania in which several men and women were hanged and one was crushed to death.
Our culture and society and laws are a mixture of traditions, which, of course, do include some ideas from Judaism and Christianity, such as the beneficent teachings of Jesus such as “Love thy neighbor, etc.” , but also from English Common Law, mostly Pagan and pre Christian in origin, ancient Roman and Greek Law, also mostly pagan, some French traditions and writings, including writings from Voltaire (also a Deist like Paine who valued reason over faith.)
The United States was founded during the enlightenment, which was a direct response to the orthodoxy and dogma of the religious establishment and the tyranny of religious intolerance and dogma.
Ask yourself this, if the United States was founded strictly upon Judaism and Christianity, why don’t Christians or Jews stone people to death for working on the Sabbath Day? (Ex.31:14,15) Why don’t Christians kill homosexuals and adulterers, and prostitutes? Why don’t Christians kill people who blaspheme, curse or beat their parents? (Ex.21:15 -17) Why don’t we have laws regarding tithes? Why don’t we cut off a woman’s hand who grabs a man’s testicles during a fight? (Deut 25:11) Why don’t we put to death Hindus and Buddhists in this country, because they worship idols?
Think about it! There are a lot of laws in the Judeo Christian Bible that are not adhered to and enforced, and yet we revile Muslims for obeying similar laws.
You ask: why don’t Christians kill people for working on the Sabbath? Or Homosexuals, adulterers, prostitutes, etc.?
With the exception of some of the off-shoots of Calvinism (founded by Jean Chauvin, Latinised to Johannes Calvinus and thence Anglicised to John Calvin – who really in many ways went back to the Old Testament more than the New in his part of the Reformation – e.g., it was Calvinists who did the infamous Salem Witch Trials of 1692!), MOST Christians have extolled the New Testament over the Old and follow Jesus’ ideals of Love being more important than following every little nitpicking detail of the Jewish Law.
Furthermore, the Jews have substantially modified THEIR laws on account of their knowing all too well that they’re NOT living in Ancient Israel; especially when people are living outside of modern Israel. [Here, Ms. BNI or any other Jew is amply welcome to correct me!]
Next, regarding your mentioning “Catholics, Baptists, Anabaptists, Presbyterians, Lutherans”: what do ALL those groups have in common?? You guessed it, Christianity!!! Furthermore, Anglican Christians like George Washington often are understated (if not in some cases secretive) with their beliefs compared to Catholics or at least SOME Calvinists; that’s why Washington was mistaken for being a mere Deist. It’s his DEEDS (e.g., being a Churchwarden) that prove his actual faith.
I’m not out to disdain you for being an atheist, but I’ve read enough accounts of what atheists CAN (not necessarily will!) do to Christians when they get to power, especially if they’re Communists or Nazis. For example, if you want to scorn the late Haralan Popov (his autobiography “Tortured For His Faith” truly is vivid in this regard – likely Richard Wurmbrandt in “Tortured For Christ” will be similar, as they were from – and brutally persecuted in – Bulgaria and Romania respectively under Communism), that’s your choice; however, his testimony is too obviously genuine to shoot down readily if at all!! [My late father was a militant atheist, and one of my best friends is the same; yet we get along quite well if we concentrate on what we have in common!!]
That map need updating. Kansas passed their bill last week. And didn’t some liberal judge throw out the Oklahoma bill that was voted on by the voters overwhelmingly passing? I keep hoping Pa passes its bill soon but it hasn’t come up for a vote yet. Like many others its being stonewalled most likely by liberals.
fox, I explained all that in the text below the map.
If memory serves me correctly, South Dakota’s governor recently signed anti-sharia legislation into law. Please confirm.
The fact remains that even five states is too few. This is a good post on an excellent site.
Uncle, sheesh, stupid me, I posted about that and forgot to add it. Will now. http://barenakedislam.com/2012/03/14/south-dakota-governor-signs-an-anti-sharia-bill-and-the-left-wing-hacks-are-calling-it-unconstitutional/
Thanks
You may want to include this video or one similar to it in your blog, because it shows one of the most prominent “moderate” muslim Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf making the claim that Sharia Law And American Declaration of Independence are the same. But hey, I’m sure you’ve seen it.
FA, posted that a few times during the Ground Zero Mosque uproar.
WELL DONE, Ms. BNI!!!!
The more people see what Islam is truly about, the better – and that message has to be trumpeted forth without mercy!!!!
Truly, I agree with your proposed measures (close all Moslem schools and mosques, ban Islamic dress); but even then it won’t be enough!!! Moslem terrorists, aided by a few converts and by Commies, will most certainly stay behind and wage guerilla warfare all the same, aiming to weaken us by destroying our morale, numbers, etc. ONLY WHEN every last single one of them is rounded up and shipped out of the ENTIRE West, can we truly relax…
We’ll likely have to be prepared to arrest almost anybody during the time of purgation: first on the basis of their looks and/or dress (BEFORE declaring Islamic dress illegal), second on any tell-tale signs of secret Islam (praying in a certain posture, even if in private), third via espionage on their telephone, Internet, regular-mail, etc. I truly hope that enough of us – independently of the governments!!! – have accumulated databases of suspected or definite Moslems who can be immediately targeted for arrest if they try to hide…
islam is like a rash that never seems to go away.
Romney: “Islam is not inherently violent.”
Newt Gingrich made it loud and clear that he would ban Sharia Law. I am convinced that Romney was shoved down everyone’s throat because he will continue with Islam just as Obama did.
Video: Newt Gingrich — Ban Sharia Law in the U.S. = full explanation
Upaces, Newt’s feelings on Islam have been seen and heard here many times. Romney has a great Middle East advisor – Walid Phares (renowned author, advisor to the Pentagon, and speaker who is Lebanese Christian) – CAIR HATES him so much they have tried to force Romney to fire him. He hasn’t, which speaks well for Romney. Check out any of Walid’s Youtube videos.
Who knows, maybe Romney will give Newt a good cabinet position.
Romney has friendship with Netanyahu that dates back to 1976 when they were consultants for Boston Consulting Group.
LK, yes, I just learned of that.
it’s sad…the Muslim Brotherhood and it’s front groups are violating 18 USC 2385 (Smith Act) and no one does anything about it because they aren’t threatening to take over the country violently, just internally, so therefore its legal for them to talk about taking over the government because they aren’t going to do it violently…that’s a crock if you ask me…the US Code needs to be changed, to bad we don’t have any legislatures that have the balls to do it.
If they want to pass Anti-Sharia legislation then just use the language that already exists in the U.S. Constitution and the subsequent U.S. Supreme Court cases which already ban such things, therefore, it won’t be unconstitutional and anyone voting against it will literally be voting against the US Constitution. It will pass with flying colors.
I wouldn’t say it would pass with flying colors. There are many in congress that are catering to the Muslim population due to the increasing numbers and the massive amount of money being donated to their campaigns. Keith Ellison is a good example, and he is not the only one. The main problem though lies with less conspicuous positions being filled such as judges and elected law enforcement officials. Detroit is a prime example.
As the muslim population and crimes increase in the US it would seem to be common sense to ensure criminals are prosecuted under American laws.
But i guess government no longer cares about our security and laws.
