Concerns About Sharia Law in America

via Sharron Angle Was Right to Raise Concerns About Sharia Law in America.



…while Sharron Angle’s examples were off the mark, her central concern about the potential for the spread of Sharia law in the United States is a valid one.



Under Sharia law, women are inferior to men, ‘infidels’ are inferior to Muslims, criticism of Islamic law or the prophet Muhammad is considered blasphemy, and a Muslim’s conversion to a non-Islam religion is a capital crime.



Islamists are creating such communities with the blessing of the IRS!



Sharron Angle was right in saying that there are indeed communities being established within the United States by Islamic groups with the avowed purpose of using Sharia as the supreme law within those communities, irrespective of any conflicts with the U.S. Constitution or the laws passed by duly elected federal or state legislators. And the Islamists are creating such communities with the blessing of the IRS!



A case in point is the Gwynn Oak Community Development Corporation in Maryland, which received tax exempt status in February 2005. It was described, in a listing of nonprofit, tax-exempt groups, as a “multipurpose human service charitable organization” under the leadership of John Yahya Cason.



It turns out that John Yahya Cason was also the director of the Islamic Education and Community Development Initiative. Cason explained that his tax-exempt “multipurpose” community organization had only one real purpose. It was to develop Gwynn Oak as a Baltimore neighborhood for Muslims with defined geographical boundaries and a clear set of moral norms and values based on Islamic law.



The reason for the community, Cason said, was that “Muslim communities are ruled by Western societal tenets, many of which clash with Islamic norms.” Thus, there is a need for communities with “the totality of the essential components of Muslim social, economic, and political structure.”



As Sharron Angle herself said, we are not talking about “a widespread thing, but it is enough that we need to address.”



The liberal press may have a field day mocking Ms. Angle, but she is correct. We need to address the phenomenon of Sharia law becoming the basis for governing any community within the United States – even just one or a few to start – because mainstream Sharia law is inherently incompatible with the United States Constitution.



Like Angle, a few flaws in the article, but And then there is this from 2004, most of which has been flushed down the memory hole:



Plans for a Muslim Subdivision in IN (Indiana):

Northwest Indiana News



On October 25, 2004 Northwest Indiana News reported, “spurned by some Chicago suburbs, Muslims are planning a large scale subdivision near the Lake-Porter county line. Congregants of the Northwest Indiana Islamic Center have been quietly buying land adjacent to the center in Merrillville with the dream of building a large residential subdivision modeled after one of Northwest Indiana’s most prestigious communities, but centered around a mosque instead of a golf course clubhouse… Some Chicago suburbs, including Orland Park and Palos Heights, have found themselves at odds with growing Muslim populations, but Muslim leaders in Northwest Indiana said their favorable reception locally encouraged them to plan to build their own community on open fields in Merrilville. Even so, some Merrillville officials suggest the plan has obstacles to cross before gaining approval, including extension of water and sewer lines and concerns about increased traffic.”

The media and clueless, pandering, leftist politicians/comedians can mock Angle and those opposed to sharia law, but they don’t have the rucksack to mock or even question Muslims. Even when Muslims state their intentions plainly.
