Somebody has to be the first to say it.
It's time, for the sake of the security of the United States of America, to immediately suspend Muslim immigration, to preclude Muslims from service in our military and to stop the building of mosques.
(The matters of Muslim military service and the building of mosques will need to be subjects of future columns.)
It should go without saying that I am speaking just for myself here. But these possibilities must be addressed and discussed in a sober fashion. The reality is that we will wind up doing these three things out of necessity if we do not do them out of wisdom. We need to make these adjustments before it's too late rather than after it's too late.
We should suspend Muslim immigration into the United States immediately. Why? Because Muslims bring with them a totalitarian ideology that calls for the submission of the United States to Islam and Sharia law.
Pew released its findings yesterday on its worldwide survey of Muslims, and revealed that two-thirds of Middle Eastern Muslims believe in the death penalty for any Muslim who converts to Christianity, and one-third believe in suicide bombings. This is not a religion of peace or liberty. Every tenet of Islam is fundamentally, irreversibly, subversively and implacably hostile to every value we cherish in America.
Muslim immigrants bring with them a totalitarian ideology whose holy book calls for the followers of Allah to "slay the idolaters wherever you find them" (Sura 9:5). The more devout a Muslim becomes, the more likely he is to obey such a command, as Tamerlan Tsarnaev illustrates, and the more of a threat he becomes to the security of the United States and the safety of the American people.
When I first began calling for an end to Muslim immigration in 2009, I was virtually a lone voice crying in the wilderness. But Andy McCarthy has since called for the suspension of immigration from Muslim majority nations, and Frank Gaffney of the Center for Security Policy has called for precluding "shariah-adherent Muslims" from our shores, in a fashion similar to our post WWII ban on immigrants who adhered to communist ideology.
Since the Boston Muslim Massacre, Laura Ingraham has called for a ban on Muslim immigration, and more significantly, John McCain just yesterday suggested restrictions on immigration from countries with a "significant influence of radical Islamic extremism." Both Marco Rubio and Rand Paul have openly called for considering the suspension of student visas to Muslim males.
Suspending Muslim immigration to the United States is an idea whose time has come.
Dutch parliamentarian Geert Wilders, based on Europe's bitter experience with virtually unrestricted Muslim immigration, has been calling for this for years, and imploring America to wake up and smell the Sharia before we become we seal our doom.
Of course, the majority of Muslim immigrants do not want to kill us, but they are not the Muslims we have to worry about. The problem is we have no way of distinguishing the Muslims we do have to worry about from the ones we don't. And we can't watch them all.
Dzokhar Tsarnaev is a case in point. All of his friends and classmates said he was quiet, fun, one of us, and so forth. They all expressed shock that he went jihad on Americans. The only way to have prevented him from participating in the Boston Muslim Massacre would have been not to allow him in the country in the first place.
While this may seem unfair to Muslims who have no hostile intentions toward us, that is not our fault. The blame for such a blanket policy lies with the Muslims who do have hostile intentions toward us and have been responsible for no less than 55 terrorist attempts on our soil since 9/11. If friendly Muslims are looking for someone to blame for being unable to enter the U.S., that is where their finger should point.
Is banning Muslim immigration constitutional? Of course it is. No one has a right, constitutional or otherwise, to immigrate to the United States. In our system of government, immigration rules are the exclusive province of Congress. One of its express powers of action, as set forth in Article I, Section 8, is "To establish an uniform Rule of Naturalization."
In Kleindienst v. Mandel (1972), (Mandel was a Marxist ideologue) the Supreme Court affirmed that "the power to exclude aliens is 'inherent in sovereignty, necessary for maintaining normal international relations and defending the country against foreign encroachments and dangers – a power to be exercised exclusively by the political branches of government' . . . .The Court without exception has sustained Congress' 'plenary power to make rules for the admission of aliens and to exclude those who possess those characteristics which Congress has forbidden'...[O]ver no conceivable subject is the legislative power of Congress more complete than it is over the admission of aliens'...The power of Congress to exclude aliens altogether from the United States, or to prescribe the terms and conditions upon which they may come to this country, and to have its declared policy in that regard enforced exclusively through executive officers, without judicial intervention, is settled by our previous adjudications." (Emphasis mine.)
Bottom line: Congress can ban Muslim immigration if it wants to. And it should.
Moslems, and Congress itself, are the ONLY ones
immune from Death Panels and ObamaCARE.
That is because the US Congress has declared
Islam the SPECIAL US RELIGION because they are enthralled
at its violence and slavery (and they love it).
I never realized that Catholics, Protestants and Jews shared the convert or die ideology of Islam....
He won’t get any argument from me. Not only should we stop allowing them in this country we should start removing the ones we have.
Our freedom of religion is being used against us. Use it or lose it FRiends.
The Sharia-zealots will never COEXIST - they are deceived, and removing the scales from their eyes requires Eternal Vigilance.
If not by Americans, then who?
YES!
"...who, being themselves but fallible and uninspired men, have assumed dominion over the faith of others, setting up their own opinions and modes of thinking as the only true and infallible, and as such endeavoring to impose them on others, hath established and maintained false religions over the greatest part of the world, and through all time;...that it is time enough for the rightful purposes of civil government, for its officers to interfere when principles break out into overt acts against peace and good order; and finally, that truth is great and will prevail if left to herself, that she is the proper and sufficient antagonist to error, and has nothing to fear from the conflict, unless by human interposition disarmed of her natural weapons, free argument and debate, errors ceasing to be dangerous when it is permitted freely to contradict them. ""I HAVE SWORN UPON THE ALTAR OF GOD ETERNAL HOSTILITY TO EVERY FORM OF TYRANNY OVER THE MIND OF MAN"--The Virginia Act For Establishing Religious Freedom
--Thomas Jefferson, 1786
I hear ya.
I don’t invite people into my house who adhere to a religion that teaches death to infidels.

HOORAY Bryan Fischer!
Life, liberty and the pursuit and destruction of totalitarians.
Jihad rolls...islam advances...totalitarians unite...
Adios Ameri
there’s such a thing as being so broad minded one’s brains fall out... and the obama administration is very broad minded...
This is what George “Dubya” Bush should have done immediately after the 9/11 attacks.
Instead he did the opposite.
He increased muslim immigration and set the government off on a tangent, pandering to Islamists, fawning over Saudi Wahhabists, and pushing the non-sensical notion that Islam is the “Religion Of Peace”.
Pretty soon they'll start whining about building a mosque close to the Boston Marathon finish line b/c Islam is all about "triumphalism"---thus the plans to build a mosque near 9/11.
And you can bet they'll get lotsa help from Boston Mayor Menino, Secy of State Kerry, and Gov Deval Patrick (who obstructed govt dissemination of the Tsarnaev's welfare $$haul). Read on.
BOSTON MAYOR MENINO (hands down, the dumbest mayor in the US)
"Just call me Mayor Stupid."
WAIT FOR IT---yet another stupid remark from Menino, and I quote.....the Boston bomber brothers "acted alone" says Menino.
STUPID IS AS STUPID DOES Boston Mayor Menino (he was the stupid-sounding one at the presser held after the marathon bombings----in the wheelchair---injured in auto accident) should be rigorously scrutinized ---- possibly charged with aiding and abetting terror against Americans. Menino handed Islamics a $2 million piece of land for $170,000 to build the Boston Mosque.
MENINO'S MOSQUE
The Phoenix | November 24, 2008 | David S. Bernstein / FR Posted by Prospero
EDITED/EXCERPT Most Boston locals concede that getting anything of substance accomplished in Boston is a Herculean task. Residents have all but embraced the principle of civic inaction with a perverse kind of local pride. In the end, "who you know" is probably more important than what you are trying to do.
STRONGARM MAYOR And there is no doubt that little is accomplished without the approval and support of the mayor, Thomas M. Menino.
So it is with the Islamic Society of Boston Cultural Center (ISBCC) near the intersection of Tremont Street and Martin Luther King Boulevard. Better known as the Roxbury mosque, the ISBCC has been in the works for more than 20 years. A few weeks ago it finally opened its doors for prayer — five years late, millions over budget, and still far from complete.
While the story of the building of the Roxbury mosque may not be worthy of a Hollywood epic, it does contain the stuff of a good television drama: (with Mayor Menino aiding and abetting) community intrigue, religious conflict, media controversy, foreign money, suspicions of extremist ties......and once-cocksure public officials, who (like Menino and then-Sen Kerry who once gave Islamics serial BJ's) have since retreated into a zone of silence.
Bombers worshipped at Islamic Society of Boston's mosque.---built w/ strongarm Menino's govt authority.
Kerry's "credentials," presented to Ohaha when the Secy of State job became available. .
Islamic jihadist motivation that drove the Boston massacre is a non-starter in the WH.
But it won't.
Not for five or six hundred years. Does that mean Islam may drop it by 2614?
Which is a totally true and comprehensive statement....BUT
This is where everyone - government, law enforcement, individuals..even die hard Constitutionalists trip over their own feet!
You cannot Constitutionally ban someone because of their religion, PERIOD! The Constitution protects religion, so you cannot use it for a Constitutional basis of rejection.
The only true method to use while staying true to the Constitution is to ban immigration from those other nations that have over a certain percentage claiming muslim/islam AS their religion.
As a nation, the United States can only legislate against other nations. Its the way the Constitutional was written and certain immutable, absolute Laws were understood by the Founders.
No matter how abhorrent WE believe someone else's religion to be, it IS their religion, and their inherent natural Right to believe in it just as EVERY individual has that Right.
-----
This slippery slope of any governments supposed authority to legislate against abstract ideas is exactly what is destroying us, IMHO. When one has been around long enough to notice the never-ending succession of War(s) on the abstract roll by, the pattern becomes obvious.
The War against Proverty gave us the redistribution of wealth. The War on Drugs gave us a plethora of laws against personal freedom, privacy and general Liberty. The War on terror now has granny being searched in her private parts while bombing are being carried out by people who were here even after their own home country warned us against them!
[Hel-LO! Is there even anybody IN Washington, D.C. anymore?]
Moslems only swear allieence to the Uhmmah (Nation of Islam) - there are are no other borders or counrties to them...so Taking an oath to defend the US Constitution is meaningless to Moslems...same for the Oath of a US Citizen or pledging allience to the US Flag...means nothing to them...
You're VERY late to the party, Bub !
“It’s time, for the sake of the security of the United States of America, to immediately suspend Muslim immigration, to preclude Muslims from service in our military and to stop the building of mosques.”
Amen. I can’t believe someone is publicly stating the obvious.
How many of our 535 congress critters will acknowledge this undeniable truth?
