Jawhar: The Anti-Sharia Crowd

Sabria Jawhar, Huffington Post
Her further extolling of the sharia is downright insulting to free peoples everywhere. Apparently for this slave woman

.....the more sensational aspects of Sharia: stoning, amputations, lashings and taqiyya. Taqiyya, according to Western extremists, means that Muslims can lie with impunity to hide their true agenda of global domination. I must admit that this is a clever tactic because anyone believing in this nonsense can conveniently disregard as a lie any Muslim argument that is contrary the western extremist position. Interestingly, the Robert Spencers of the world insist we denounce terrorism and renounce Sharia. Yet their position is that all Muslims are liars, so what's the point of making these futile arguments?

[...]

... the report can't quite explain why stonings are so rare and the streets of Saudi Arabia and Iran are not filled with one-armed thieves.

Apparently there aren't enough stonings, amputations, lashings, etc., to warrant concern. How many are enough, Sabria?

As for Sabria's jackboot stomping, the niqab doth protest too much. Clearly the attacks on free speech (hate speech, aka islamophobia), sharia financing, mosqueing of the public square, the workplace, and the public school is all incremental sharia, delegitimizing Israel, rampant anti-semitism ....drip, drip, drip.

Jawhar then complains that a recent study of Sharia's spread in America didn't include Islamic scholars. Maybe the organizers of the study didn't want it overwhelmed with fog and detours and diversions from the main point. Then she continues:

These self-proclaimed experts ignore the principles of Sharia that make Islamic values compatible with democratic societies. Indeed, the principles of Sharia are also found in the U.S. Constitution and Bill of Rights and predate these documents by more than a millennium. These Sharia principles ensure the freedom of religion, the preservation of human life and family, the guarantee of an education and the pursuit of economic security and justice through commerce.

Freedom of religion for non-Muslims in the Islamic state only if they know their place and accept second-class status. Preservation of human life unless you're deemed a kafir harbi, an infidel at war with Islam. Preservation of the family, including polygamous arrangements in which women are essentially commodities.
