Phoenix Imam Tells Muslims To Disregard U.S. Laws
HumanEvents/JihadWatch ^ | 11/19/08 | Robert Spencer

“A Muslim must try his best to abide by the rulings of Sharia [Islamic law] whenever possible as much as he can. He should not allow himself to be liable to those western laws that contradict the clear-cut Islamic rulings.” The rulings of Sharia, mind you, include stoning for adultery, amputation of the hand for theft, and institutionalized discrimination against women and non-Muslims.

Omar Shahin has been in the news before.

I didn’t figure Phoenix

Isn't that in Arizona?

Isn't that where McCain is from?

Didn't he throw the election so Old Bomber could win?

Did he get paid for that?

Sheesh. John McCain did not throw this election to Obama. How do you come up with such nonsense?

That's asking a lot. I just wish they would clean their filthy aircraft. Me and the boys will take care of the imams, but ain't no way I'm pulling diapers out of the seat pocket.

Give them time, they’ll integrate into our society. Isn’t it always that way in a multicultural civilization?

I know & that makes me angry too. These muslims need to stay in their homeland where their sharia law is the normal way of life.

It wasn’t lost on me that it was Phoenix. I don’t think that McCain threw it, but I do wonder if the fact that he lost emboldened those who wish to ‘speak out’. And I doubt we’ll hear similar comments from Chicago.

Where are the gay activists? They can not wait to storm Christian churches, man handle old ladies, or protest in front of Mormon churches. They know that the Muslims will not put up with that kind of outrage. This is a clear example of the respect that is given to force. The gay force inflicted on law abiding people results in extortion of the non-violent. The preceived violent nature of Muslims protects them from extortion.

Guess you need to do some reading.
