Analyst's note:  Absolutely must read and consider this entire original article by David Kupelian.  Also, please learn about shariah law or Islamic law. I can not recommend strongly enough that you read "Shariah, the Threat to America: An exercise in competitive analysis, Report of Team 'B'" II

"[....] The 177-page report itself is entitled:  “Shariah, The Threat to America, An exercise in competitive analysis.” You can also download it here (pdf format).

"[....]The Enlightenment values that inspired and informed the Founding Fathers to create America, which epitomizes Western Democracy, are the antithesis of the extremist – Islamist – side of sharia. 

 

a.    shariah is firmly rooted in Islam’s doctrinal texts, and it is favored by influential Islamic commentators, institutions, and academic centers (for example, the faculty at al-Azhar University in Cairo, for centuries the seat of Sunni learning and jurisprudence);

 

b.    shariah has been, for over a half-century, lavishly financed and propagated by Islamic regimes (particularly Saudi Arabia and Iran), through the offices of disciplined international organizations (particularly the Muslim Brotherhood); and

 

c.    due to the fact that Islam lacks a central, universally recognized hierarchical authority (in contrast to, say, the Roman Catholic papacy), authentic Islamic moderates and reformers have an incredibly difficult task in endeavoring to delegitimize shariah in the community where it matters most: the world’s Muslims.

 

The report clearly points out that genuine moderate Muslims and Islamic reformers must be encouraged, for without them, the hardline “Islamist” ideology will prevail.

 

[....] people who have masqueraded as “moderates” and have had the ear of government in America have had the same attitudes. Omar Ahmad, founder of CAIR had stated in 1998 that:  

“If you choose to live here [in America]… you have a responsibility to deliver the message of Islam. Islam isn't in America to be equal to any other faith, but to become dominant. The Quran should be the highest authority in America, and Islam the only accepted religion on earth.”

 

[....] Chapter 8 of the report (p.133) states:

 

In fact, by manipulating perceptions at the national strategic level about the nature of shariah, the enemy can actually exercise profound influence over the nature and adequacy of the defense mounted. That is most especially true of actions needed to contend with the Muslim Brotherhood’s stealth jihad – even though we know its avowed purpose is aimed at “eliminating and destroying the Western civilization from within and ‘sabotaging’ its miserable house by their hands.”

 

To fully understand America’s peril in the face of such enemies, we must carefully consider our collective failure to contend with their successful pursuit of information dominance and psychological strategy, critical ingredients in information warfare. We must come to grips with, and correct, the control they have come to enjoy over what Americans, and most especially the U.S. civilian, intelligence, and military leadership, understanding about shariah and its proponents. [....]"

Understanding the full content of this document and especially understand that this report regarding shariah law is critical to the defense of our nation.  Please consider downloading and keeping this report by Team 'B' II for further reference.  This report "[....] should be taken seriously by anyone with an interest in national security issues, and particularly those in the U.S. Government."

If you'd prefer to listen then you can hear Bob Anderson, William J. Dell, and Dr. Lloyd Case on this broadcast of  Dialog: East Coast - West Coast discuss the report --- but learn about shariah law.  We must not allow the Muslim Brotherhood, who are masters at manipulating perceptions, nor shariah law to operate within our United States of America.

"After a 14-year-old Bangladeshi girl named Hena Begum was forcibly raped, kicking and screaming, by a 40-year-old married man on Sunday, Jan. 30, a Shariah court the next day sentenced her – the rape victim – to receive 100 lashes for having engaged in an illicit "affair." Henna was given no chance to appeal, and the sentence was carried out immediately. After between 70 and 80 lashes, the little girl collapsed into unconsciousness and was taken to the hospital – where she bled to death.

Islamic apologists will tell you such an atrocity is an abuse of Shariah law, or the excess of some remote, rural tribal council. Hogwash. Rape victims are frequently flogged and imprisoned under Shariah, as when a Saudi court in early 2009 sentenced a 23-year-old female who had been gang-raped by five men to 100 lashes and a year in jail. Her crime? Accepting a lift from a man who drove her against her will to his house and took turns, with four of his friends, raping her. Same with a 2007 case where the Saudi Justice Ministry sentenced a girl gang-raped by seven men to six months in prison and 200 lashes.

Speaking of Saudi Arabia, who can forget when the kingdom's "religious police" allowed 15 young girls to die horrible deaths when a fire broke out in their school in Mecca on March 11, 2002? The religious police, or Mutaween, literally blocked firefighters from saving the girls because they weren't dressed in the proper Islamic way for girls and women to be seen outdoors. With helpless firemen watching, the religious police literally beat the girls – those who were not wearing their headscarves or abayas – back into the inferno.

This criminally insane behavior, my friends, is Shariah, the barbaric, seventh-century legal system Islamists are hell-bent on imposing on the entire world.

In the wake of the Egyptian turmoil and subsequent abdication of the presidency by Hosni Mubarak, the Obama administration has had many opportunities to weigh in on the Muslim Brotherhood, the shadowy transnational Islamist organization dedicated to establishing Shariah throughout the world, including in America.

As is usual for Obama – who seems secretly to empathize with everything subversive and anti-American – the president has refused to condemn the Brotherhood. His director of national intelligence, James Clapper, went a step further, downplaying the Brotherhood's influence and ambitions and bizarrely referring to the dedicated Islamist group as "largely secular."

Since the Obama administration apparently has such a difficult time thinking logically about anything, let's reduce the facts of Shariah and the Muslim Brotherhood down to a simple, inescapable, purely logical syllogism:

Shariah – Islamic law – is unspeakably cruel, barbaric and inhuman.

The Muslim Brotherhood is unalterably dedicated to imposing Shariah on the entire world, with a special emphasis on America.

Therefore, the Muslim Brotherhood is America's enemy.

Nothing could be clearer than this. And yet, the Muslim Brotherhood – while preparing for an ever-larger role not only in Egypt but throughout the Middle East – is also making major inroads, through its many proxies, right here in America.

And it is doing so by employing the exact same dual strategy the left has successfully employed for decades to transform America.

Whether it's Marxism or Shariah Islam, efforts to transform America always seem to involve two fronts. And though we generally win the overt, intimidating, threatening battles, we always lose the covert, seductive, "peaceful" battles – and thus we lose the war.

[....] we are no longer confident and unified about who we are as a nation, nor do we recognize our enemies when they're standing right in front of us – we have been losing.

To change course, a good start would be to take a cue from Europe's leaders, who have seen our future – since their nightmare of Islamic cultural, demographic, educational, legal and military (jihad) subversion is a few years further along than ours. Indeed, it is precisely because of the rapid Islamization of Europe that the continent's leaders are starting to wake up. In recent weeks, German Chancellor Angela Merkel, British Prime Minister David Cameron and French President Nicolas Sarkozy all have publicly disavowed the madness of multiculturalism and stressed the need to reclaim their nation's core identity.

"It's a failure," Sarkozy said of multiculturalism. "The truth is that, in all our democracies, we've been too concerned about the identity of the new arrivals and not enough about the identity of the country receiving them."

America must finally take its multicultural blinders off and realize that Shariah is evil, and that groups promoting its establishment in America are subversive, anti-American organizations and should be regarded as such.

Bottom line: Islam is inflicting a two-pronged attack on the West. One prong is jihad, intimidation, terror. The other is infiltration, seduction and deception. Both have exactly the same goal – the imposition of Shariah on the United States of America and the rest of the world. 

That is why the Muslim Brotherhood and its proxy groups in the U.S. are our enemy every bit as much as the violent jihad groups the Brotherhood has spawned, from Hamas to al-Qaida. Don't be fooled by the nice-guy approach. As history proves, the revolutionary with the coat and tie is ultimately far more dangerous than the pawn carrying the explosives."
