CAIR: Supporting America...

Andrew Whitehead of Anti-CAIR is one of my heroes because he has successfully withstood the legal jihad of CAIR. Because of this it is a good idea to read his opinion once in awhile. Here is the most recent email from Whitehead.

CAIR: Supporting America...

Since the founding of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), the majority of non-Muslim citizens of the United States have been constantly accused of “Islamophobia” (a word created as a propaganda tool used by CAIR), “racism” (even though there is no such race as “Muslim”), and “intolerance” (a word used by many groups to describe those who disagree with them without using words of substance or evidence to back up their accusations).

Our country cowers in submission, much like England, France, The Netherlands, and Germany, in that we cannot even have a rational discussion on political/radical Islam in the United States without having to gain "permission" from CAIR and other alphabet-soup so-called “Muslim Civil Rights Groups”.  Even our military services are forced to accept questionable Muslim chaplains vetted by the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA), yet another front group for radical Islam.

The current state of the “Mainstream Media” in the United States is partly to blame.  Consider that the New York Times (NYT) is still believed by many Americans (and other newspapers) as the “paper of record”.  NYT articles and columnists are followed throughout the United States.  While the NYT may get it right on occasion, the simple fact is that it appears willfully wrong on the Islamist threat to our country.

This ability to overlook the obvious is not limited to the NYT. It infects any number of American papers whose reporters and editorial staff simply aren’t up to the challenge of honest reporting regarding the fascist ideology of CAIR members and their ilk.  And really, who can blame them?  Events all over the world have demonstrated that murder and mayhem may await any paper, reporter, or social commentator who dare to take an objective look at the threat of radical Islamic ideology. (It's much "safer" to pick on Christians and Jews who are known for actually praying for those who insult their faith, not terror murdering them or their children.)

So where should we turn if the mainstream press won’t report the truth?  Due to a poor educational system and a deliberate policy of “speak no evil” when it comes to the darker side of Islamic beliefs by our local, state, and national governments, it seems that we the people are over a barrel when it comes to seeking answers from those whose responsibility it is to provide them.  If the government won’t speak the truth regarding radical Islam, how can we count on it to protect us from the terror of radical Islam?

Even more disturbing forces are at play.  For example; Congressman Peter King recently attended a rally in support of the New York City Police Department (NYPD).  The rally came about in response to a NYT article outing on-going investigations of various Islamic groups in the New York - New Jersey area.  Apparently, Governor Christie of New Jersey was upset that the NYPD hadn’t kissed the ring of the Joint Terrorism Task Force (JTTF) unit in Newark, New Jersey before pursuing its investigation. While Governor Christie can complain over what is, essentially, hurt feelings, the underlying question that should be asked is: “Why didn’t the NYPD approach the JTTF?”  Could it be that the NYPD knows something about the JTTF that made the JTTF an unreliable partner?  Perhaps the JTTF administrators would have refused to back the investigation and label it as being “un-American”?  Was there a security issue? We'll never know because the mainstream media won’t investigate.

CAIR and CAIR’s fellow travelers are constantly brow beating us on how oppressed "Muslims" are in the United States.  We can take CAIR at their word. The highly esteemed (and deported) CAIR Community Relations Director Bassem Khafagi (currently running for president of Egypt), said of the United States: “I loved the place I lived in, but I never loved the US, the infidel country”.  We can suppose he didn’t love the USA because he was deported following his conviction on two charges of bank fraud and one count of visa fraud.  In his running for president of Egypt, he has promised to “complete the implementation of Islamic law in Egypt. I do not hide this truth in any way, because it is in keeping with the inclination of the Egyptian people."  One has to wonder, did Khafagi bother to ask the Copts or Jews (are there any Jews left in Egypt?) how they feel about living under Sharia Law with it's well-known respect for human rights and religious liberty?  Will Friday services at the Mosque be followed by amputation of various body parts at the local mall parking lot for Sharia Law-breakers, as is very common in that paragon of Islamic jurisprudence, Saudi Arabia?  So much for CAIR’s stated position of respect for all religions.

Our forefathers bequeathed us a country founded in respect for the law and tolerance of religious beliefs.  Our enemies should not interpret our tolerance as weakness.  Our governing bodies and press should discontinue their policies of appeasement of political/radical Islam that serves no practical purpose beyond conditioning our people to accept the unacceptable.  Now is the time to take a stand and say “no more”.

There is no law that demands the mainstream media quote CAIR and no government policy that requires CAIR be consulted on anything Islamic.

CAIR, founded by terrorists, is a media parasite.

Starve CAIR of exposure and it will dry up and blow away like dog dung on a hot sidewalk. 

This is as it should be.

Shocking NJ judge ruling

Here is the Islamic agenda of the Muslim Brotherhood (undoubtedly with the Leftist multicultural collective cooperation) existing in America. A Judge in New Jersey ruled that a forced rape of a Muslim husband’s wife is legal because of the religious beliefs of Islam! Is that unbelievable or WHAT? This Jersey Judge ruled that religious institutional rape trumps the law of the land; i.e. Sharia Law trumps Constitutional Law.

ACT for America is all over this story sending out a Robert Spencer expose to their email list.

Shocking NJ judge ruling
NJ Judge rules it’s not rape when a Muslim forces himself on his wife!

Recently, an ABC News story scoffed at the Oklahoma referendum going to the voters that prohibits the courts from using sharia law in their decisions. The implication was that there is no need for this.

Really?

Jihad Watch reported on Saturday (see story below, highlights added) that a New Jersey judge ruled that a Muslim man, accused of forcing non-consensual sex on his wife, was not guilty because of his religious beliefs.

Here is the portion of his ruling that should leave no doubt that Islamic sharia law is penetrating America:

"This court does not feel that, under the circumstances, that this defendant had a criminal desire to or intent to sexually assault or to sexually contact the plaintiff when he did. The court believes that he was operating under his belief that it is, as the husband, his desire to have sex when and whether he wanted to, was something that was consistent with his practices and it was something that was not prohibited."

In other words, the husband’s belief in sharia law trumps New Jersey criminal law. The husband did not commit a crime because he was acting according to sharia law.

Fortunately, an appellate court had the good sense to overturn this absurd decision. But don’t let anyone tell you we don’t need to worry about sharia law being imposed on us here in America! Or on Muslims who don’t wish to be subjected to it.

Sharia in New Jersey: Muslim husband rapes wife, judge sees no sexual assault because Islam forbids wives to refuse sex

Muhammad said: "If a husband calls his wife to his bed [i.e. to have sexual relation] and she refuses and causes him to sleep in anger, the angels will curse her till morning" (Bukhari 4.54.460).

He also said: "By him in Whose Hand lies my life, a woman can not carry out the right of her Lord, till she carries out the right of her husband. And if he asks her to surrender herself [to him for sexual intercourse] she should not refuse him even if she is on a camel's saddle" (Ibn Majah 1854).

And now a New Jersey judge sees no evidence that a Muslim committed sexual assault of his wife -- not because he didn't do it, but because he was acting on his Islamic beliefs: "This court does not feel that, under the circumstances, that this defendant had a criminal desire to or intent to sexually assault or to sexually contact the plaintiff when he did. The court believes that he was operating under his belief that it is, as the husband, his desire to have sex when and whether he wanted to, was something that was consistent with his practices and it was something that was not prohibited."

Luckily, the appellate court overturned this decision, and a Sharia ruling by an American court has not been allowed to stand. This time.

"Cultural Defense Accepted as to Nonconsensual Sex in New Jersey Trial Court, Rejected on Appeal," by Eugene Volokh in The Volokh Conspiracy, July 23 (thanks to CameoRed):

From today's opinion in S.D. v. M.J.R. (N.J. Super. Ct. App. Div.), a domestic restraining order case:

The record reflects that plaintiff, S.D., and defendant, M.J.R., are citizens of Morocco and adherents to the Muslim faith. They were wed in Morocco in an arranged marriage on July 31, 2008, when plaintiff was seventeen years old. [FN1] The parties did not know each other prior to the marriage. On August 29, 2008, they came to New Jersey as the result of defendant's employment in this country as an accountant.... [Long discussion of the wife's allegations of abuse, which included several instances of nonconsensual sex as well as other abuse, omitted for space reasons. -EV] Upon their return to the apartment, defendant forced plaintiff to have sex with him while she cried. Plaintiff testified that defendant always told her

this is according to our religion. You are my wife, I c[an] do anything to you. The woman, she should submit and do anything I ask her to do.

After having sex, defendant took plaintiff to a travel agency to buy a ticket for her return to Morocco. However the ticket was not purchased, and the couple returned to the apartment. Once there, defendant threatened divorce, but nonetheless again engaged in nonconsensual sex while plaintiff cried. Later that day, defendant and his mother took plaintiff to the home of the Imam and, in the presence of the Imam, his wife, and defendant's mother, defendant verbally divorced plaintiff....[...]

While recognizing that defendant had engaged in sexual relations with plaintiff against her expressed wishes in November 2008 and on the night of January 15 to 16, 2009, the judge did not find sexual assault or criminal sexual conduct to have been proven. He stated

This court does not feel that, under the circumstances, that this defendant had a criminal desire to or intent to sexually assault or to sexually contact the plaintiff when he did. The court believes that he was operating under his belief that it is, as the husband, his desire to have sex when and whether he wanted to, was something that was consistent with his practices and it was something that was not prohibited.

After acknowledging that this was a case in which religious custom clashed with the law, and that under the law, plaintiff had a right to refuse defendant's advances, the judge found that defendant did not act with a criminal intent when he repeatedly insisted upon intercourse, despite plaintiff's contrary wishes.

Having found acts of domestic violence consisting of assault and harassment to have occurred, the judge turned to the issue of whether a final restraining order should be entered. He found such an order unnecessary, vacated the temporary restraints previously entered in the matter and dismissed plaintiff's domestic violence action....

The appellate court reversed this absurd decision, saying:

As the judge recognized, the case thus presents a conflict between the criminal law and religious precepts. In resolving this conflict, the judge determined to except defendant from the operation of the State's statutes as the result of his religious beliefs. In doing so, the judge was mistaken.

A close call. But no doubt more of this is to come.
