Before reading this post, recall the blog I did yesterday about Noni Darwish's book Cruel and Usual Punishment: The Terrifying Implications of Islamic Law and dangerous and vicious Sharia Law really is. Barack Obama appointed Dalia Mogahed to promote Sharia Law in America. Here is a fantastic article about her on Atlas Shrugs:

Obama First Female Veiled Islamist Appointee, Dalia Mogahed, Promotes Sharia, Says it's "Misunderstood"
Earlier this year, in April, I ran this post: Obama's Three Degrees of Anti-Semitic Separation, warning Americans of Obama's first female 'Islamist' appointee, Egyptian born Dalia Mogahed. She had conducted her first interview with Sheik Yusuf Al-Qaradawi's extremist Islamic website, Islam Online. I posted the whole thing here. The taqiyya interview is irony-rife with claims of victimhood and subjugation.
This latest taqiyya (lies to advance Islam) whitewashes the horror, the cruelty, the barbarism, the misogyny, the gender apartheid of shariah (Islamic) law. Is anyone still wondering where all this is going?
Barack Obama adviser says Sharia Law is misunderstood Telegraph (hat tip Andrew Bostom)
President Barack Obama's adviser on Muslim affairs, Dalia Mogahed, has provoked controversy by appearing on a British television show hosted by a member of an extremist group to talk about Sharia Law.
Miss Mogahed, appointed to the President's Council on Faith-Based and Neighbourhood Partnerships, said the Western view of Sharia was "oversimplified" and the majority of women around the world associate it with "gender justice". Dalia Mogahed
The White House adviser made the remarks on a London-based TV discussion programme hosted by Ibtihal Bsis, a member of the extremist Hizb ut Tahrir party.
The group believes in the non-violent destruction of Western democracy and the creation of an Islamic state under Sharia Law across the world.
She said: "I think the reason so many women support Sharia is because they have a very different understanding of sharia than the common perception in Western media.
"The majority of women around the world associate gender justice, or justice for women, with sharia compliance.
"The portrayal of Sharia has been oversimplified in many cases."
Sharia in its broadest sense is a religious code for living, which decrees such matters as fasting and dressing modestly. However, it has also been interpreted as requiring the separation of men and women.
It also includes the controversial "Hadd offences", crimes with specific penalties set by the Koran and the sayings of the prophet Mohammed. These include death by stoning for adultery and homosexuality and the removal of a hand for theft.
Miss Mogahed admitted that even many Muslims associated Sharia with "maximum criminal punishments" and "laws that... to many people seem unequal to women," but added: "Part of the reason that there is this perception of Sharia is because Sharia is not well understood and Islam as a faith is not well understood."
The video of the broadcast has now been prominently posted on the front page of Hizb ut Tahrir's website.
Miss Mogahed, who was born in Egypt and moved to America at the age of five, is the first veiled Muslim woman to serve in the White House. Her appointment was seen as a sign of the Obama administration's determination to reach out to the Muslim world.
She is also the executive director of the Gallup Center for Muslim Studies, a project which aims to scientifically sample public opinion in the Muslim world.
During this week's broadcast, she described her White House role as "to convey... to the President and other public officials what it is Muslims want."
Wendy Wright, president of Concerned Women for America, said Miss Mogahed was “downplaying” Sharia Law.
“There is a reason sharia has got a bad name and it is how it has been exercised. Regrettably in the US there have been acts of injustice perpetrated against women that are driven by the Sharia-type mindset that women are objects not human beings,” she said.
She cited the example of Muzzammil Hassan, a Buffalo man who ran a cable channel aimed at countering Muslim stereotypes and was charged earlier this year with beheading his wife after she filed for divorce.
“Americans understand by example, it’s not as if we are an ignorant mass of people. Just as we don’t broad brush all Muslims, so should Dalia not downplay the serious nature of sharia law.”
UPDATE: Here's today's call to kill Jews from Dalia's spiritual soul mate, Yusuf Al Qaradawi. The leading Muslim voice is urging Egyptians to turn this Friday into a nationwide day of anger against the "Israeli practices at the Aqsa mosque in Jerusalem."
The Qatar-based cleric flew to Egypt from Doha on Monday to deliver a speech at the Egyptian Journalists' Syndicate in Cairo, where he condemned the Arab governments' silence towards the "violation of Al Aqsa's holiness" by Israeli settlers and occupation forces.
Sharia Law is one of the vile, foul set of laws ever to grace the earth. It is misogynistic, vicious and calls for Muslims to lie, cheat and steal in order to insure Sharia Law becomes the supreme law of every nation. It is authored by Satan and Satan alone, for no one who believes in goodness, humanity, courage, strength, love, repentance, forgiveness, faith, hope, charity...all that resides within the teachings of Jesus Christ, could possibly write, indulge in, promote or enforce the rules within Sharia Law.
This is America and here we do not believe in the circumcision of women, the subjugation of women, the complete degradation of women, the murdering of those who choose to leave their religion, the murdering of their family members, the murdering of women who are raped so that the family might restore their honor, the cutting of hands for thieves, etc. Sharia Law is something NEVER, NEVER SHOULD NEVER, exist within the borders of the United States of America.
We are fighting so many battles, but I ask you take this one up as well. Contact your congressmen and Senators, your local legislators and demand that Sharia Law be eradicated from our nation. Detroit and Dearborne, Michigan are two cities where Sharia Law is now being practiced. I call for the arrest and deportation of every single person living Sharia Law in America. There is no room for you in the United States of America.

OK Please correct my ignorance. I must not understand Islam very well.
ReplyDelete1. No other religion condemns someone to death if you even slightly offend them.
2. No other religion promotes the harsh treatment of women like cattle.
3. No other religion condones the beheading of anyone not of their faith.
4. Every other religion uses ministry and proselyting to spread their message, not terrorism.
5. Other religions use pamphlets, Bibles and other similar items to promote their message, not suicide bombs.
Am I missing anything?
Nope, you're not missing a thing at all.
