There are many aspects of Sharia Law that are different from American Constitutional law. One of the more obvious is the conflict between the concept of free speech and the penalty for blasphemy. On Tuesday, The American Thinker<\/a> posted an article about a bill that was recently passed in the U.S. House of Representatives that will move America in the direction of Sharia Law.<\/p>\n

Congress.gov<\/a> (you have to go to the site and put in the bill number as the specific link expires) describes HR 5665 as follows:<\/p>\n

Passed House (12\/14\/2021)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Combating International Islamophobia Act<\/strong><\/p>\n

This bill establishes within the Department of State the Office to Monitor and Combat Islamophobia and addresses related issues.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The office shall monitor and combat acts of Islamophobia and Islamophobic incitement in foreign countries. The bill establishes the position of Special Envoy for Monitoring and Combating Islamophobia, who shall head the office.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The bill also requires certain existing annual reports to Congress about human rights and religious freedom in foreign countries to include information about Islamophobia, such as information about (1) acts of physical violence or harassment of Muslim people, (2) instances of propaganda in government and nongovernment media that attempt to justify or promote hatred or incite violence against Muslim people, and (3) actions taken by a country’s government to respond to such acts. The office shall coordinate and assist in preparing these portions of the reports.<\/strong><\/p>\n

No funds made available pursuant to the bill may be used to promote or endorse a boycott, divestment, and sanctions movement ideology (i.e., economic measures against Israel or Israel-related individuals or organizations) or used to promote or endorse a Muslim ban.<\/strong><\/p>\n

It is no surprise that the bill is sponsored by Ilhan Omar.<\/p>\n

The American Thinker reports:<\/p>\n

The actual text of the bill not only seeks to eradicate blasphemy against Islam around the world \u2013 and solely against Islam at that \u2013 but even requires the federal government to reorganize some portions of the State Department along the lines of an Islamic religious institution which will be responsible for interpreting the Quran.\u00a0 For example, the text of the bill mandates that \u201c[t]he Secretary of State shall establish within the Department of State an Office\u201d and the \u201cpurpose\u201d of the office is described as \u201c[m]onitoring and combating acts of Islamophobia and Islamophobic incitement that occur in foreign countries.\u201d\u00a0 That is, the State Department is required to create an office that is a cross between George Orwell\u2019s Big Brother and the Taliban.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The word \u2018combat\u2019 in the text of the law is problematic but fits in perfectly with the concept of waging violent jihad<\/em> against the countries deemed to have committed blasphemy against Islam.\u00a0 Almost every dictionary defines the word primarily as an action pertaining to war.\u00a0 While the internet firm Google\u2019s dictionary defines ‘combat<\/a>\u2019 as \u201cfighting between armed forces,\u201d Cambridge Dictionary<\/em> defines <\/a>the word as \u201ca fight, especially during a war.\u201d\u00a0 According to Collins Dictionary<\/em><\/a>, \u201ccombat is fighting that takes place in a war.\u201d\u00a0 This is no hyperbole as the State Department has a long history of supporting Islamic terrorists such as Osama bin Laden, the Taliban, Al Qaeda, and ISIS.\u00a0 Former Assistant Secretary of State, Robin Raphel, ran her office as though it were an outpost of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan and she lost her security clearance when she was investigated<\/a> for counterintelligence activities.\u00a0 Little wonder then that Newt Gingrich, the former Speaker of the House, used the term \u201cRogue State Department<\/a>\u201d and President Donald Trump described the State Department as the \u201cDeep State Department.<\/a>\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n
