THE SHARIA IS COMING! THE SHARIA IS COMING!

 

* University of Toronto: Sharia in. Ten Commandments out.

 

The radical, leftwing, elitist, supremacist, power structure that controls what passes for education at the University of Toronto rejected the Law of Supply and Demand years ago. No sense in filling the heads of their students with jingoistic, capitalistic nonsense.  The Ten Commandments are haram (forbidden). They might terrify minority students. The Star Chamber, the Nuremberg Laws and the Inquisition are useful tools in exposing the sickness and corruption endemic to all Western societies.  And, of course, the Mayflower Compact is haram because it begins with the words, “In the name of God.”

 

On the other hand, the laws of the late-great Soviet Union present fruitful fields for study. The proletarian revolution has yet to be completed; the workers are disunited; and there are more capitalists than fry cooks in the United States—an unbearable situation to leftist professors.

 

The laws and the constitutions of the People’s Republics of China and Vietnam are to be observed closely. The bylaws of the Calvin and Hobbes tree-house club, G.R.O.S.S (Get Rid Of Slimy girlS) are sexist, chauvinistic and elitist and should be burned. Capitalism, Judge Roy Bean, the Ten Commandments and G.R.O.S.S. are out. Socialism, communism, feminism, and cultural and ethnic but not ideological diversity, are in.

 

It should come as no surprise then that the study of Islamic law—the sharia—is coming to the University of Toronto (UT). There are more admirers of Fidel Castro and Che Guevara on the UT campus than there are of George W. Bush; more admirers of Jacques Chirac than of Donald Rumsfeld. Even John Wayne’s popularity is on the decline. That’s right—Sean Penn is in; the Duke is out. It’s sad. The Duke drove cows across the Red River. Penn couldn’t drive an angry rooster across a chicken coop even with a bodyguard. Oh, Canada—you were once a trusted, valued, and useful friend.

 

Not to be outdone in its servitude to rampant Islam by Berkeley and Cambridge, UT’s elitist power structure is bringing in Anver Emon and Dr. Mohammed Fadel to introduce UT’s students to the joys of sharia. Lorne Sossin, acting law school dean, says, “The early indications are that students are going to be beating down the doors…with Islamic fundamentalism in the news and of course the sharia debate in Ontario…bringing these issues close to home.”  Beating down the doors? Isn’t that kind of violent?

 

The announcement did not please everyone. Homa Arjomand of the International Campaign Against the Sharia Court in Canada says the hiring of these two men is “like a green light for sharia. I’m so mad.”

 

One of the incoming professors, Anver Emon, says, “ Islamic law is not just about these rules about cutting hands off thieves or discriminating against women. It’s a living tradition in which jurists are trying to embrace and engage in active acts of interpretations.” See? There’s nothing to worry about—unless one happens to be a woman or has a mild case of John Dillinger’s Disease.

 

If Anver is confusing in the way he explains things, his partner is twice cursed. For example, on his website Dr. Mohammed Fadel was asked, “Can Muslims be friends with non-Muslims?” This is what Fadel wrote: “Words, both nouns and verbs, derived from the root wa-la-ya are ubiquitous in the Qur’an. Words with the root wa-la-ya include nouns such as mawla (pl. mawali), wali (pl. awliya’), and verbs such as waliya, walla, and tawalla. The casual reader, however, can easily misinterpret the sense of these words in the Qur’an if she fails to pay close attention to the general linguistic context…” This means that if anyone disagrees with Dr. Fadel she is taking the Qur’an out of context. And the excessive verbiage does not end with that. It goes on and on—and on.

 

Fadel is more confusing than Johnny Cochrane in a pair of Bruno Mali shoes. Friends doesn’t necessarily mean friends, he says, friends can be patrons; friends can be enemies; non-Muslims can boss Muslims it they do it according to Islamic law. And above all—God knows best.

 

When a thief has his hand cut off it is not punishment—it is an act of penance. The same goes for stoning an adulterer—something almost impossible to prove if the adulterer is a man. And then there’s the death penalty for apostates. Dr. Fadel says the death penalty is not universal because “an apostate has the rest of his natural life to repent. More importantly, the origin of the crime of apostasy is political/military treason, not freedom of conscience.” Treason? What does he mean by that? Is he suggesting that Islam is not a religion or is he saying that there is no such thing as freedom of conscience in Islam? Opie would find this confusing. A ten-year-old would have a better chance of mastering advanced trigonometry than this cross-cultural jibberish. Put a blindfold on Mister Magoo, stick his hands in a thick pair of rubber gloves and hand him a Rubik’s cube and he’d have that solved long before he could make any sense out of Dr. Fadel’s convoluted explanations.

 

“No religious group is immune from religious hatred,” says Fadel. “Demagogues in other societies, including Christian societies, often whip up popular frenzy against minority groups at tremendous costs to those minorities, the Holocaust of European Jewry (whole-heartedly supported by the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem who was a frequent visitor to Nazi Germany during the 1930s and ‘40s) and the ethnic cleansing and other horrors visited upon Yugoslav Muslims serving as prime examples.”

 

The murder of millions of Christians and animists by Sudan’s psychopathic Islamo-fascist government and the slaughter of hundreds of thousands of Christians in East Timor by like-minded bigots don’t make Dr. Fadel’s cut as prime examples. The chances are they will never be mentioned as examples of sharia law run amok. Two points: Hitler, Lenin and Stalin were not Christians; the perpetrators of the ongoing holocausts in Sudan and Southeast Asia are Muslims. By way of warning:

 

Qur’an 4:114: “He who disobeys the Apostle after guidance has been revealed will burn in Hell.”

 

Qur’an 4:168: “Those who reject (Islamic) Faith, Allah will not forgive them nor guide them to any path except the way to Hell, to dwell therein forever. And this to Allah is easy.”

 

Tabari IX:69: “Killing disbelievers is a small matter to us.”

 

Frightening? It should be. Will Anver Emon and Dr. Fadel address these concerns or will they ignore Islam’s 1400-year history of barbarity toward non-Muslims and concentrate on attacking America as a land of racism, genocide, short skirts and bad hamburgers? Don’t miss the next episode.

 

Ayaan Hirsi Ali, a Somalian immigrant to the Netherlands and now a member of the Dutch Parliament, is a woman’s rights activist of the first magnitude. With the help of Dutch filmmaker, Theo van Gogh, she produced a movie about the plight of women under sharia law. They called the film Submission—and it certainly is. Van Gogh was murdered because the film sinned against Islam.

 

                                          

* Ayaan Hirsi Ali.                               * From Submission.                                                                * Theo van Gogh.         

 

Hirsi Ali is currently in Toronto on a speaking engagement concerning woman’s rights. Commenting on the freedom she has enjoyed since immigrating to the Netherlands, she said. “If I were to say the things that I say now in the Dutch Parliament in Somalia, I would be killed…I wish I could go back…But I can’t go back…I have said things about the Prophet Mohammed and his message about women…I would be seeking danger if I went back to Somalia…I’m not intimidated by the threats and the attempts to make me shut my mouth, because living in a rich western European country like this one, I have protection that I otherwise would not have in Somalia or in Africa or in any other Islamic country.”

 

Can the radical leftwing elitist supremacist power structure at UT guarantee her safety? Canada might be rich and Western but how long will that last if UT persists in hiring the very people that would deny Hirsi Ali her rights? Do Canadians really want the likes of Anver Emon and Dr. Mohammed Fadel to indoctrinate their gullible and culturally brainwashed children into the wonders of sharia?

 

Why not muzzle the propagandists for a half-hour or so and bring in Ms. Ali to talk about the real sharia? How about five minutes? Certainly 300 seconds of honesty and commons sense couldn’t hurt anything. What is Islam afraid of? The truth? UT is promoting Islamic sexism, chauvinism, and violence toward women. They ought to be ashamed.
