Muslim polygamy – in Seattle Pamela Geller, WND
Story continues below advertisementAbu Khalid Abdul-Latif is accused of plotting a jihad terror attack against a Seattle military recruiting station. Abdul-Latif and another jihadi, Walli Mujahidh, have been charged with planning an attack on the Military Entrance Processing Station. The FBI said that they were trying to figure out "how they could kill the most military personnel and escape or die as martyrs," and talked about throwing fragmentation grenades into the cafeteria of the Station. After his arrest, the local Seattle media interviewed his niqab-wearing wife, Binta Moussa-Davis, who sobbed that Abdul-Latif was devout: "He just good Muslim. Perfect Muslim. He pray five times a day." Abdul-Latif was so devout, in fact, that he was seeking a second wife at a Muslim dating site on the Internet – right in Seattle, where polygamy is supposed to be illegal.
Abu Khalid Abdul-Latif was such a "perfect Muslim" that he wanted to travel to Yemen to sit at the feet of the jihad cleric Anwar al-Awlaki. Al-Awlaki mentored the Fort Hood jihad mass murderer, Nidal Malik Hasan, whom Abdul-Latif wanted to imitate. Devout Muslim al-Awlaki also provided succor and Islamic spiritual guidance to the Christmas underwear bomber and the Times Square car bomber.
Abdul-Latif's YouTube channel features a video in which he asks Allah to "show mercy to the mujahedeen who are fighting to help preserve the religion of Islam, and that he'll help suffice us, those of us who are not fighting right now, and bless those who at least have the desire to go struggle for the cause of Allah … whether that's jihad by hand, jihad by tongue, or jihad within ourselves." He praises al-Awlaki in that video as well.

God gave Adam one wife. Furthermore, Jesus who Muslims claim to accept as a prophet of God. But not the God-Man as the Christian church teaches. Nevertheless, Jesus did teach ” For this cause shall a man leave father and mother ans shall cleave to his wife…” Jesus said “wife” not wifes Matthew 19:5. [KJV]

Polygamy is one of those issues that conservatives are going to get bit by if they are not careful.
In forgetting to focus on the human rights aspects of purdah, keeping women secluded, which can pop up in any culture’s history they will soon be left behind by this culture’s history.
With the universal adoption of gay marriage in the West virtually inevitable it behooves us to re-examine both our priorities, and our goals, in this issue.
We already have rampant polygamy in this nation, and not just amongst Mormon “radicals”; the whole idea of the nuclear family is giving way to an extended family of choice instead of an extended family by birth, which is the pattern that the unstable nuclear family replaced; a pattern that had existed for millennia.
The bottom line on marriage, no matter where you find it in human cultures, is that it is about producing an environment that is conducive to raising children and conserves the energy/assets of the participants… that is the only definition that fits what a living, dynamic humanity has called “Marriage”!
By this perspective the orthodox Muslim marriage is an unhealthy one, and so is the traditional “purist” Mormon one; because they both impose control where there should only be consent, they demand submission where there should only be free will.
We stay with our mates because we are committed to them, not because their plumbing, or number, coincide with a particular religion’s kinky code of what is love and what is perversion. As Jesus said, judge them by their fruits.
Let us focus on the seclusion, the forbidding education or work or even being allowed to be seen to be free of bruises or unbearable stresses.
Let’s remember what matters and, what is just our OWN desire to impose control for control’s sake.
If gay men and lesbian women are allowed to marry the next step, and last all you reactionaries, will be for one or more men to contract marriage with one or more women… Commitment should be all that matters, and the one man one woman crowd has not done to wonderfully well in showing off that virtue… Jesus said judge them by their fruits, I will not be harsher.
That said, by his fruits this man will probably hang high, so to speak
