Here is yet more of the endless propaganda for Islam that the enemedia constantly inundates us with. Sure, American democracy has a long history with Islam — as an adversary. America fought its first war against the Barbary Pirates, who were Islamic jihadis. Thomas Jefferson had a copy of the Quran not because he admired it, but because he was pursuing that war, and wanted to understand the enemy.
And it gets worse. “The U.S. Constitution itself is said to be influenced by the spirit of the Holy Quran in that it recognizes the inherent rights of the individual, the community, and the universal thread of humanity that connects us all.”
The Constitution does that, but the Quran doesn’t. The Quran devalues women and heaps hatred upon the kuffar. It doesn’t teach “the inherent rights of the individual” on an equal basis. Muslims are worth more than non-Muslims, who are “the most vile of created beings” (Quran 98:6).

The San Francisco Chronicle gives a platform to this deceptive imam, but would it ever give a platform to me or my colleagues to explain the truth about jihad terror? It would sooner take the gaspipe.
“American democracy has a long history with Islam and Shariah law,” by Yahya Shabazz, San Francisco Chronicle, November 6, 2017 (thanks to Vikram):
From the founding of the United States as a nation, there has been Islamic influence.
The Islamic nation of Morocco was the first to recognize America as a nation, in 1777. Muslims fought in the Revolutionary War to win our freedom. Muslims were brought to America during the slave trade. Some of the American founding fathers had copies of the Quran, most notably Thomas Jefferson.
The U.S. Constitution itself is said to be influenced by the spirit of the Holy Quran in that it recognizes the inherent rights of the individual, the community, and the universal thread of humanity that connects us all.
Islam itself goes beyond the bounds of religion, geography and ethnicity; it addresses the nature of the human being to submit only to God. In this sense it outlaws slavery, it equalizes men and women, and it imposes no compulsion on the individual to serve anyone, including God.
Shariah law, contrary to popular belief, is not some strict law put down in books that metes out punishment if someone steps outside the law. Shariah is the guidance of the Holy Quran itself that shows the person the path of life recommended by Allah. It is only when that person ignores the guidance that they suffer the consequences of their own disobedience. When societal laws are broken, then the law of the land is applicable….

San Francisco is going to love sharia law. 50% of the population has really tall buildings to get tossed off. and the other 50% will get their heads chopped off. I’m almost siding with the muslims to get rid of the reprobates in that city. What’s worse……..fundimentalist jihadis’s or rabid politically correct neolibturds?

Trump should build the wall across the whole US / Mexico border (where possible) except for the California section + stop all ICE activities in that section while tripling enforcement in all other sections, let the hordes flow into the California funnel…
All states adjacent to California (Arizona / Nevada / Oregon) should put up checkpoints for securing their state line borders + implement a “deport to California / New York” policy against any illegal immigrant captured in their state (that policy should be implemented nation wide)
lets see if the bleeding heart “progressives” in CA & NY will remain so tolerant and inclusive after they receive a human tsunami that will destroy their economies (ballooning welfare / police budgets, elevated social unrest due rising gang / drug related crime, flooding of the CA / NY economies with dirt cheap labor, sharp rise in price of energy / food / housing / water due to higher demand and a very small input to the economy by that additional population and a white/young flight exodus out of CA / NY [“Blue America”] to places like Texas, Arizona, Florida)

How did I get my BA in History without knowing our “long relation” with Islam? This lie is so huge Hitler and Goebbels are smiling and laughing. Well done, San Francisco Chronicle.
“American founding fathers had copies of the Quran, most notably Thomas Jefferson.” Hmm, Kitman, lying by omission? He read it to “know thy enemy,” the Islamic Barbary Pirates, then sent the Marines to “clean up shop,” as it were.
And that whole laughable bit on Sharia — deceit by Kitman, Taqiyya, and Tawriya.
However, the author is right that Islam is not a race or ethnic group, it is for all people (stupid people). He’s honest about that. Now if the left could only see that our position on Islam is not about race or ethnic groups, but it is about exposing an evil belief system by reading back their own Koran and hadiths.

Killing an apostate is not mandatory in Sharia law. However, there is also no penalty for killing an apostate. I checked this up ten years ago. nice little twist, I guess so that they can say such rubbish as they do.

The Quran says “if any one turns from his religion, kill him.” That is a command. It does also say if they revert back they are to be accepted. So an apostate, in some circumstances are given a chance to revert and if they don’t they are to be killed. That is sharia.

There are peaceful “Muslims”… People who claim to be Muslim but have no idea what is in their scripture and don’t live according to their religio-politico ideology and thus are peaceful with no ill will or seditious intent. Having said that, once these people are brought into compliance with Islamic scriptures then… well we all know what will most likely happen next. They become “peaceful” Muslims.

Jefferson rid the world of the Barbary pirates and within 25 years of this, all four states collapsed economically as piracy, slavery and loot were their main source of revenue. If you believe in a god (and IMHO it is reason enough NOT to so do)then admire his humour as only giving them all of that oil has allowed the resurrection of the dreadful ideology.

we can thank GWB for that. on 9-12-01, we should have just annexed iraq, told all the muslims to leave within a month, seized their oil fields, and built the most massive military base in the world in the iraq desert. we should have then told the rest of the muslim world that death is about 5 minutes away if they so much as ever look funny at an american again. but, that would have required the bush family to not be owned by the muslims

Jefferson and the Koran is correct
Well, yes, Jefferson had a Koran (like Mohammaed, he also had slaves- just sayin’). But atleast in the section quoted above, the reason he had a Koran is disingenuously left unaddressed in the article, even though it seems to imply that Jefferson’s intellectual frame of reference was somehow informed by that bloody book of horrors.
In fact, I believe the history of Jefferson’s copy of the Koran is that when he decided to go to war against the Barbary Pirates (good Moslems all, I’m sure) who were capturing American sailors on the high seas and taking them as slaves or for ransom, he thought that reading the Koran might enlighted him about the enemy’s culture and way of thinking. I am unaware of any record that Jefferson values or personal world view were informed by the Koran; nor is there any reason to believe he had any respect for the pedophile prophet. This pathetic excuse for a journalist studiously avoids alerting his readers as to Jefferson’s motivations. Are all Moslem journalists so deceptive?

The leftist propagandists within the media or otherwise are shameless of their rewriting history via the Big-Lie. It is absolutely insane, as you mentioned. Those disseminating such blatant falsehoods should be taken to task. They, however, would hide behind the First Amendment which they loathe. This outlandish deceitfulness is only part of the subversive plot to undermine this Republic. If such duplicitous propaganda is not challenged by the government, the judiciary, this nation will become an appendage of a Theocratic State/Islam. America’s MSM already puts PRAVDA to shame.

In the United States, the people are the power. That is why we have a Second Amendment. The government is the servant created by the states. The servant cannot be the master, yet, that is exactly the situation we have today, due to cowardice among the people. We can talk and talk and talk and nothing will change. Our inaction has allowed the muslims to kill us in our own towns, the illegal aliens to live on our tax dollars and kill us in our own towns and the government takes our money and guns. We sit at home wetting our pants. We have ignored our duty as American citizens, no one else is to blame.

Apparently a few of the highlights of shariah are still not common knowledge, so, at risk of repeating myself and others:
• A Muslim will not be subject to retaliation (prosecution) if he kills an apostate, since it is someone who deserves to die.
• Parents and grandparents will not be prosecuted for killing their offspring or offspring’s offspring. This law is significant to getting those who honor kill off the hook.
• A Muslim will not be executed for killing a kaffir (non-Muslim).
• It is obligatory for a Muslim to lie if the purpose is obligatory, such as fulfilling Allah’s commandments of jihad.
• Slander and exaggeration is allowed if the purpose is lawful. No guilt or shame should be associated with slander of the perceived enemy, and if it is for protecting Islam and for the benefit of Muslims.
• Sharia has no respect for sovereignty of other nations and non-Muslims, because of the doctrine of jihad, defined as “to war against non-Muslims to establish the religion.”
• It is a capital (enormity) crime for any Muslim who chooses to “Not perform jihad or flee from combat with (kaffir) unbelievers.”
• It is the duty of every Muslim head of state (Caliph) to wage jihadist wars against non-Muslim nations, especially neighboring ones. Muslim Caliphs who refuse jihad are in violation of Sharia and unfit to rule.
• A Caliph could hold office through seizure of power meaning through force.
• A Caliph is immune (Maasum), exempt, from charges of murder, adultery, robbery, theft, drinking, and in some cases of rape.
• A manmade government (legal system), such as democracy, is an abomination and must be eliminated.
• A percentage of Zakat (alms) must go towards jihad.
• It is obligatory to obey the commands of the Caliph even if he is unjust.
• A caliph must be Muslim, not a slave, and male.
• The Muslim public must remove the Caliph if he rejects Islam or refuses to rule by Sharia.
• A non-Muslim cannot inherit from a Muslim.
• No testimony in court is acceptable from people of low-level jobs, such as street sweepers or bathhouse attendants. Women in low-level jobs are not awarded custody of children in case of divorce.
• A non-Muslim cannot rule, even over a non-Muslim minority.
• Homosexuality is punishable by death.
• Women are forbidden from becoming president or judge.
• There is no age limit for marriage of girls. The marriage contract at any age after birth and consummation of marriage at age 8 or 9.
• A husband has the right to beat his wife and does not have to say why to her family or police.
• Rebelliousness on the part of the wife nullifies the husband’s obligation to support her, gives him permission to beat her and keep her from leaving the home.
• Divorce is only in the hands of the husband and is as easy as saying: “I divorce you,” and is effective even if the husband says he did not intend it.
• A wife has no right to divorce her husband, even if he is polygamous, with additional wives.
• A man is allowed to have sex with slave women and women captured in battle, and if the enslaved woman is married, her marriage is annulled.
• There is no community property between a husband and his wife/wives.
• A woman inherits half what a man inherits.
• Parents have the legal right to perform female genital mutilation on minor daughters.
• A man must pay the woman dowry to be given in exchange for his right to her sexual organs.
• A rapist may only be required to pay money (dowry) without marrying the rape victim.
• A man is allowed to have sex with slave women and women captured in battle, and if the enslaved woman is married her marriage is annulled.
• A woman’s testimony in court is half the value of a man.
• A woman loses custody of her children if she remarries.
• To prove rape a woman must have four male witnesses.
• A woman must cover every inch of her body, which is considered awrah (a sexual organ). Exposing face is allowed by most, but not all Sharia schools.
• A Muslim man will not be prosecuted if he kills his wife if caught in the act of adultery. However, the opposite is not true since husband “could be married to the woman he was caught with.” Thus loyalty is only expected from wife, and not the husband.
• Free speech is unprotected and harshly punished if it involves any criticism of Muhammad, Islam or Sharia itself. Both Muslim and non-Muslim critics of Muhammad will be executed even if they repent.
• The banking system must be Sharia-compliant.
• A government must rule by Sharia and a Muslim head of state.
All of the above laws (except number 8, which is not Shafi’i) are mainstream Sharia. They are all found in the Shafi’i book Reliance of the Traveler.
This is a sample of shariah, is this what America wants to replace the Constitution?

“A muslum will not be executed for killing a kaffir” is an interesting one. In Soddy Barbaria they have blood money payments for the killing of kaffir — where a muslum can kill a kaffir and the only punishment will be a fine paid out to the victim’s family. In Soddy Barbaria there is a price list for such killings broken out by religion and sex. Jews and atheists aren’t included on the list. I’ll bet if a kaffir kills a muslum in Soddy Barbaria the sentence is death.

Depending on who got murdered, and the local stud ducks, the victim could easily be defined as an apostate, thereby making the murderer fully compliant with the qur’an.

An imam in UK claimed – in a video issued by police as a “community” sop – that Britain had “a long shared history” with Islam.
Well, yes, in a way, as victims of piracy and slave-taking. Here are samples:
1625 Mounts Bay was raided: 60 people taken as slaves.
1626 St Keverne was attacked more than once.
Cornish boats attacked at sea: the men taken as slaves.
1631 ALL the women and children of Baltimore, SW Ireland (then part of UK) taken as slaves.
1640 Estimated 3,000 to 4,000 British existing as slaves in N. Africa.
Commission set up to oversee ransom money to liberate slaves.
1645 240 people taken from Cornwall.

First of all, the very title of that article is a deception. America is not democracy. It is a republic. Democracy as such means unrestricted majority rule. The US constitution devise careful list of check and balances to prevent that abuse (not that, currently, it is heavily twisted and eroded).

Our cowardice has resulted in this situation we are in. We are afraid of welfare blacks, illegal alien invaders and muslims.

@Toledo Steel – “We are afraid of welfare blacks, illegal alien invaders and muslims.”
I don’t think it is necessarily fear. Maybe there are many RINOs in the GOP who are but I don’t think the issue is universally fear. It seems to me there are a handful as demonstrated by Geller Report readers who are informed and care enough to see things as they are. Then there are the ignorant who are in the majority who, even when it is proven the MSM is lying, accept what the MSM says. Then there are those RINOs who I agree do fear being called racist or islamophobes but are also in alignment with achieving the global utopia but aren’t as seditious as others. Then there are the seditious who want to implement their vision of utopia (aka communism) but to do so they need to break the current system based on Judeo-Christian values which includes the uniqueness of man and woman (binary gender based on reality and not delusional feelings) and the sacredness of marriage between man and woman. But because they haven’t been able to do that, they team up with anybody who they think will help them accomplish those ends such that when they became aware of Islam’s agenda to implement their utopia (dar al Islam where the kaffir support them, aka jizya which looks like welfare only they get paid a lot more, and they can have their 4 wives and as many sex slaves as they want) they decided to team up with Islam thinking the Muslims will buy into their secular view of utopia because after they point out to the Muslims how rediculous religion is, those ignorant Muslim will get on board. Especially since there is overlap between these two visions of utopia namely their focus on sex including pedophilia. What’s not to like?
