The ABA's Jihad

by Pamela Geller - February 22nd, 2011 - The American Thinker

The American Bar Association (ABA) has decided to undertake the fight for Sharia law. The ABA's Executive Counsel "has organized a Task Force to review the legislation of 14 states -- ... in which anti-Sharia legislation has been introduced."

The goal of the ABA's Task Force is to fight against these legislative initiatives by free people...

In reality, Islamic law is the most radical and intolerant system of governance on the face of the earth. It denies the freedom of speech, the freedom of conscience, and legal equality for women and non-Muslims. That's why so many states are trying to ban it.

The article goes on to identify the actions being undertaken by the ABA to implement Sharia finance, a convoluted system of banking designed to pretend that interest is not interest to meet religious dictates of tyrannical Mullahs. That is the finance system that has kept Islamic countries backward and sabotaged all efforts at free enterprise within Muslim countries for over a thousand years. What in the world would cause an American organization to promote such an ignorant concept?

An equally queer concept is the support by a free press in America for the suppression of criticism against anything Islamic. If you say anything, even something truthful about honor killings of raped women, beheading of infidels, the misogyny against women - absolutely anything that any Muslim finds offensive - you are guilty of Islamophobia and blasphemy. The article notes that Los Angeles is among many cities promoting the right of Muslims to take away the Constitutionally guaranteed rights of our citizens if they dare commit the "hate crime" of criticizing Islam.

A free press is glorifying the elimination of free speech. Local governments are backing this by making it the law of the land.

Has America gone insane? How can such idiocy be tolerated.
