There’s a new report out from the Center For Security Policy titled Shariah, The Threat To America. It’s a report from Team “B”.
This study is the result of months of analysis, discussion and drafting by a group of top security policy experts concerned with the preeminent totalitarian threat of our time: the legal-political-military doctrine known within Islam as “shariah.”
What is Shariah? Shariah is basically all the do’s and don’ts of Islam.
In other words, shariah is held by mainstream Islamic authorities – not to be confused with “radical,” “extremist” or “political” elements said to operate at the fringes of Islam – to be the perfect expression of divine will and justice and thus is the supreme law that must comprehensively govern all aspects of Muslims’ lives, irrespective of when or where they live. Shariah is characterized as a “complete way of life” (social, cultural, military, religious, and political), governed from cradle to grave by Islamic law.
While many, many millions of Muslims around the world do not practice their faith in a manner consistent with shariah…those that do have grounds for arguing that their version of Islam is the authoritative one. And those who claim that there is no single shariah – a narrative that has recently
emerged from representatives of Muslim- and Arab-American groups and their apologists – are either
ignorant of the facts about shariah discussed below, or deliberately dissembling.
More and more, countries are asked to consider Shariah law in courts or even to look to Shariah instead of Constitutional law. The report compares Shariah to our Constitution and concludes that Shariah is Anti-Constitutional. “Shariah rejects fundamental premises of American society
and values:”
a. the bedrock proposition that the governed have a right to make law for themselves;
b. the republican democracy governed by the Constitution;
c. freedom of conscience; individual liberty (including in matters of personal privacy
and sexual preference);
d. freedom of expression (including the liberty to analyze and criticize shariah);
e. economic liberty (including private property);
f. equal treatment under the law (including that of men and women, and of Muslims
and non-Muslims);
g. freedom from cruel and unusual punishments; an unequivocal condemnation of
terrorism (i.e., one that is based on a common sense meaning of the term and
does not rationalize barbarity as legitimate “resistance”); and
h. an abiding commitment to deflate and resolve political controversies by the ordinary
mechanisms of federalism and democracy, not wanton violence.
Just one of the conclusions of the report asserts that Shariah is a threat to America. “Its ambitions transcend what American law recognizes as the sacrosanct realm of private conscience and belief. It seeks to supplant our Constitution with its own totalitarian framework.”
