House Rejects Proposal Identifying “Islamic Religious Doctrines”
Jihad Watch ^ | July 14th 2017 | Robert Spencer

Posted on 07/15/2017 1:46:38 AM PDT by Jacquerie

Choosing denial and willful ignorance instead of knowledge of the motivating ideology of the jihadis who have vowed to destroy us. That’s just asking to be defeated.

“If you have an amendment that says we’re going to study one religion and only one, we’re going to look at their leaders and put them on a list — only them — and you are going to talk about what’s orthodox practice and what’s unorthodox, then you are putting extra scrutiny on that religion,” said Muslim Brotherhood-linked Rep. Keith Ellison.

Yes, you are. And there is a reason for that: 30,000 jihad attacks committed in the name of Islam and in accord with its teachings since September 11, 2001. No one religion has anything approaching that kind of record of death and destruction. So why shouldn’t we put extra scrutiny on that religion?

Ellison added: “You are abridging the free exercise of that religion.”

No. The free exercise of any religion is not a license to break existing laws. The free exercise of religion is not a free pass to commit treason or subversion or sedition.

The amendment would have required the Defense Department to conduct “strategic assessments of the use of violent or unorthodox Islamic religious doctrine to support extremist or terrorist messaging and justification.” There is nothing “unorthodox” about jihad violence in Islamic law and doctrine. But even this tepid recommendation was too much for the short-sighted 217 cowards of the House, who have passed up an opportunity to strengthen our defense against the global jihad.

Cowardly and nominally Christian congressmen shirk their duty. Through their inaction, they are allies of Islam. Since we won't help ourselves, I doubt we can count on God's assistance.

It would not have withstood a test in the courts

We have enough laws now to take care of the problem. All we have to do is enforce them

(Keith Ellison) is beginning his push to de-fang the U.S. Constitution which he swore to uphold but can't do because of his religion.

Islam has no place in the United States Government just as Communism has no place, they are juxtaposed to freedom and liberty.

Keith Eillson belongs to an organization that openly wants to kill Americans...

There is no doubt that the enemies of the Republic continue their quest to destroy US but should the American majority ever stand in opposition our enemies shall wither as winter withers the plants. Should an American majority decide the order of fire be resounded throughout this land the enemies of opposition will quickly become the lambs of compliance or world wide d struction will become the norm. Very few choices left for the enemies of the Republic. The choices available to the Republic are those of the Republic’s founding. I’ve no doubt the choice the American majority will decide. The American majority and the Republic will choose to survive. God willing.

It’s not only just politicians who refuse to take a serious look at the theistic assertions held by Moslems which claim a corruptible double talking deity has authorized them an exclusionary existence which bars any other form of life style or belief system and to apply deceit,and deception when seeking converts and murdering them if they refuse to do so. It’s also Christian leaders like Pope Francis who refuse to do so.

"Cowardly and nominally Christian congressmen shirk their duty."

Worse than that, these congressmen give aid and comfort to the enemy. The Constitution has a word for that.

Agree. Allowing Muslims into this country in waves of refugees has been foolish. These people have no intention of assimilating period. They will follow their Islamic laws and to hell with ours. Hispanics here for 2 and 3 generations have had little motivation to learn English as they can speak in Spanish at banks etc.

Islam is a terrorist ideology disguised as a religion. Islam belongs under RICO, not the First Amendment.

This is the same House that voted to put money in the Defense budget to fund sex change operations and treatments. A gang of about 25 non Republicans connect with every Democrat and they have a working majority.

Truer words were never spoken. When Thomas Jefferson was Secretary of State, he met with several of the Emirs of the Barbary States and was told in essence "We have a religious duty to convert you, kill you, enslave you or at least extract payment of tribute. The last is the least painful and all of the great maritime powers of Europe have agreed. We've even given the United States a lighter rate based on the relative wealth and development of your country. Why do you resist?"

Yeah, I realize Jefferson was smarter than any congress critter alive today. But it isn't rocket science that he figured out enough of the problem here to develop the "Millions for defense but not one penny for tribute" policy of his Administration.

Probably not. It is why I support an Article V COS to, among other reforms, put the courts back in their place.

If one hasn’t read the constitution or one’s oath of office why would one read Sun Tzu?

We can at least take comfort knowing muzzies will not rape the daughters and sons of congressmen. That is for the children of the hoi’ polloi.

“”Islam has no place in the United States Government just as Communism has no place, they are juxtaposed to freedom and liberty.””

Well, they found a place for communism so this has been a walk in the park for them. No pushback, no defense - just appeasement. I’m sure I’m thinking the same thing others are thinking - it’s just a matter of time before ~~~~~~~~~ and when it does, I don’t want to hear the caterwauling from these pukes. Hopefully it will hit THEM HARD - like a 2x4 to get their attention!

Because you chose to insult Islam and their prophet Mohamed, you should be killed by any Muslim who is aware of your blasphemy

I should be killed by any Muslim available who is aware that I agree with you.

Islam teaches that Mohamed will not return until the world is 100% grade A Islam. That means all Muslims are commanded to either convert you or kill you. It's your choice:

Convert

or be killed

OR remove every Muslim from where you live. Send every one back to the he%%hole they came from if they want to practice their devil worship.

It is easy to verify that each passage says what it says here. There are no moderate Muslims, they are all commanded to kill infidels. If you can read, you can know the truth about them. Otherwise, you can wait for one of them to come for you and your family.

And then their is the Iranian 12ver Shia who are commanded, after all others are killed and only two remain, to kill each other; thus the whole of the human race will be brought to Paradise ... (or extinct which ever one prefers ...)
