I am so grateful for LTC West, I hope he can and will open some eyes in DC.

I’m really beginning to like this guy. Former military and no nonsense. He is what America needs. A strong leader. Not a wimp like Obozo.

Sharia law is way more terrible than western laws, but it really does not differ much from them. One way or the other, laws (western or not) violate individual freedoms.

So I should be free to murder you, or your husband or wife without any consequences?

No, no one should use the force against any human being. That’s why people use laws, constitutions, and such, to give governments the monopoly of force. Hence, the reason I’m against laws (Sharia law, any law). All of them, one way or the other damage our liberties, and impose the monopolized force on us.

I mistakenly liked your comment instead of hitting reply.
“but it really does not differ much from them” WOW!
I hope you’re not a female because if you get raped and don’t have 6 witnesses who can corroborate your side of the story you’re guilty. I also hope you’re not a homosexual, that one will get you killed for sure.
The differences between Western law and Sharia law are huge.
“One way or the other, laws (western or not) violate individual freedoms.”
It all depends on how you define your individual freedoms. It sounds like you’re using a pretty wide brush.Tell me of a society that functions with out laws.

I don’t want to put words in his mouth, but I get the sense by “laws,” he meant legislation, decrees from on high enforced by a string of implicit death threats and corporal punishment.
In the west, if you’re convicted on property crimes or substance laws, you get to spend time locked in a cage to be routinely raped or beaten or killed in prison gang turf wars, drug smuggling or plain old power struggles. Sharia is just more straight forward about it.
Which is more “evil” when one institutionalizes that kind of punishment for nonsense laws and the other is aware of it’s unofficial occurrence and happily uses it as a threat against violating it’s own nonsense laws?
Pardon my habitual contrarianism.

The problem is that the left controls so much of the media. A majority of people that I know tune in to the Channels that are promoting “the beauty” of accepting Islam, while at the same time, they seem to have no problem bashing Christianity, and labeling any opposed to Sharia as bigots, racists, fear mongers, etc.
The people I’ve mentioned who believe the lies they’re being told by their (“trusted news sources”) are good-hearted people.
I’ve come to the conclusion that we have to try to educate others on a one to one basis. And it’s not an easy thing to do, as I’m sure anyone who tries to reason has already learned by now.It’s worth the effort.
And may I add: God help us!

Why it is about honor… the Qur’an said so
Congressman Allen West has the right scoop about shariah.
In response to Frank Gaffney’s question about “… Sharia as the enemy threat doctrine,” West said about creeping shariah, “… there is an infiltration of the Sharia practice into all of our operating systems in our country as well as across Western civilization.”
I would like to add to your comment Scoop, about “… kill them without penalty if it’s about ‘honor’” to kill relatives… or non-Muslims who refuse to submit to political Islam.
Yes, it is about “honor,” and the question is why is it about honor?
‘Cause it’s says so in the Qur’an.
A fundamentalist, true believer, death loving jihadist kaboomer for Allah might say,
- Allah said it,
- Muhammad repeated it,
- the Qur’an codified it,
- the Hadith’s reinforce it,
- I believe it,
- that settles it.So, hey, kuffar, submit and convert, or submit and pay the jizya feeling humbled, or die.
I think Allen West and Frank Gaffney just might agree with the Qur’anic “why” it is a matter of honor to kill relatives who convert away from Islam to any atheistic belief system or any theistic religion.

“It’s just ridiculous that they would be so up in arms about West suggesting that we must ensure that Sharia never gets a foothold in America.”
It is less ridiculous than suggesting something must be done to ensure this.
Support for sharia law enjoys a minuscule minority among Muslims. In turn, Muslims comprise 0.6% of the population. So buy yourself a donut. There…. you just ensured sharia law isn’t imposed in the US.Honestly, how do you see this as ANY kind of possibility, let alone a likely threat in a nation with your demographics?
Either sharia law is the new iPhone and you need to explain why every teenager is just gonna want it so bad next year or simple math tells you this isn’t an issue.Seriously, tell me about all the benefits of sharia law that are going to account for significant proportions of you 80%+ Christian citizens opting in for this, since the less than 1% of Muslims clearly can’t carry it themselves. Tell me how this new craze will be sweeping churches around the country.

You sound like Neville Chamberlain. Remember him? British Prime Minister who on September 30, 1938 spoke the words “peace for our time” in reference to the Munich Agreement. Which was ironic because the next day, October 1, 1938, the Germans started their “occupation” of the Sudetenland. And less than a year later WWII started.
- Frank in PA
Yes, a couple of stupid court decisions in the last couple of months and the general commentary surrounding the building of the Cordoba center near ground zero by a Sharia proponent give me some real concerns.
It is also happening in other counties that are usually a good indicator of the direction in which America is heading.
They are already lobbying for Sharia in ghetto communities. Then they will want to expand it as a matter of religious liberty.
With just enough wackos in the judiciary today, it is NOT a stretch to see the danger.

Sammy,
Your kind of thinking is the dangerous kind. I’m not trying to be rude – just stating a fact.
The 80% of Christian citizens you refer to are under attack, and if you haven’t noticed this you’re either not paying attention, or you’re getting the wrong news.
Liberals (Progressives – whatever they call themselves nowadays) can easily laugh a Christian to scorn. Openly bawl their disdain for our religious holidays and principles – but “heaven forbid!!” the Muslim faith take a light tapping of ridicule by any one of us…we are then accused of being the dangerous ones.Wake up man.
Supporters of Islam have infiltrated this country in many sectors.As Americans, most of us are tolerant and trusting, and ever ready to defend the underdog. Please don’t fool yourself into believing that the people who DO intend to harm this nation aren’t aware of this, and use it to their advantage in every given circumstance.
They’re not stupid.
Nor are we who openly opose them.I say it all the time.
Be watchful and vigilant and above all, BEWARE OF INNOCENT APPEARANCES! - Anonymous
Sammy I’m sure you mean well, but I think you are looking thru rose colored glasses.
CAIR Muslims organizations are now in all 50 states of United States.
Do the research.
Sharia Law Court are in UK at least 85 now. COURT decisions are now based on Sharia Law in UK.
They start slowly and then get countries to accept their law based on — it will be no problem. But is NOT so. They have harsh laws for women – women have no equal rights under Sharia Law.
Again – do the research. - Frank in PA
The WHOLE RELIGION – if followed in a literal, fundamental way – is “about power and not about faith.” That has to be our working understanding. Allah must have total sovereignty in all walks of life for the precise followers of this religion to be happy. And, of course, someone has to facilitate and administrate that state of submission. The Q’uran gives them that job. Islam is an aggressive geopolitical religion and there is no tip-toeing around it.
Terror has worked and that is a really big part of why no one wants to speak up. That, and a political correctness run a muck have driven the collective thought of most of the world into idiocy.

West absolutely gets it. Key to his understanding is how shariah has been insinuated into all key structures of America’s institutions. He says it. Amen Brother!
Now then… What structure do you think sits atop… at the very apex of America’s institutions? Ask West in a private session and he would undoubtedly say, The White House.

No Sharia Law should be allowed to enter our legal system of laws.
Keep Sharia Law OUT of United States of America.
Muslims came here and were accepted and they in turn pledged allegiance to USA and its Constitution. We have one system of laws in America with its rights.
Muslims have right to their religion they have no right to enforce their religion into our laws. Our constitution does not enact laws based on religion – Separation of Church and State. If Muslims no longer want our laws they have the right to leave our country. - Anonymous
Wars are being fought and thousands killed murdered dismembered due to old world Muslim laws. Had world governments had Separation of Church and State in their constitutions thousands of lives would be saved. Invasion of Iraq now has put Iraq into Sharia Law and back into a 3rd world country. One million people have died. NO more equality rights for the people. Before Saddam Hussein Iraq was illiterate – no reading or writing . SH made it education mandatory for men women boys and girls. People of neighboring countries went to Iraq for education and college degrees. WOMEN had freedoms with schools hospitals colleges being built under SH. Railroads (2) going north/south of entire country for purpose of whole country taking part in entrepreneur businesses – and becoming the new backbone of the country. SH brought democracy to Iraq with his new constitution of rights for all copied after our own constitution with all its freedoms.
TRY to find his Iraq Constitution – I dare you. If you CAN find a copy, publish it on net – I guarantee you – it will be removed. Just as democracy has been removed in Iraq and Sharia Law has taken its place.
Invasion of Iraq, killing a million people and destroying its buildings, R/R, water-supply, electric-system which took over 20 years to build — all took just 90 days to destroy.

On Frank Gaffney’s radio show last week, Rep. Allen West said that recognizing Sharia as a threat must be part of our national security strategy going forward. The funny thing is that the commenters over at Think Progress, who picked this up, are going nutso over this. I don’t understand why they can’t see that the ideology of Sharia, which is trying to infiltrate other countries like Britain and France, is completely antithetical to the freedoms they fight for here in America. For pete’s sake women have NO RIGHTS! Husbands can beat their kids, their wives, and even kill them without penalty if it’s about ‘honor’.
It’s just ridiculous that they would be so up in arms about West suggesting that we must ensure that Sharia never gets a foothold in America. I mean, I love it and I say GO WEST!
ALLEN WEST: So there are many different ways we need to understand this 21st century battlefield, how we can leverage all elements of our nation’s power against — and like I said we need to get away from this nation building focus. I think that is economically hurting us.
GAFFNEY: In terms of understanding our enemy, and I think you’ve done as much as any congressional candidate to help expand the awareness for not only your constituents but others. I count on you to be carrying that on in your new capacity. What is your sense of the willingness of this new Congress to take on Sharia as the enemy threat doctrine?
WEST: Well, I haven’t had the opportunity to sit down with all of the new members, giving all the new members of the freshmen class a phone call to talk to them. I think one of the critical things that we must come together is that there is an infiltration of the Sharia practice into all of our operating systems in our country as well as across Western civilization. So we must be willing to recognize that enemy. We cannot have a national security strategy that does not recognize it in specific and understand its goals and objectives. So once again, we can tailor you know our internal goals and objectives as far as our security systems, our political systems, economic systems, our cultural and educational systems, so that we can thwart this. And it comes back to one of those strategic goals that you mentioned, reducing the sphere of influence of this Sharia you know ideology that is tied into Islam. But I think that is our most threatening part, is the Sharia philosophy.
