I found this to be a very interesting and thought provoking article, it opens up some areas I had never considered, long but worth the read…………
Islam Is Not A Religion, It Is Foreign Law
By JR Dieckmann
The time has come to question if Islam is protected under our First Amendment rights to freedom of
religion. Yes, everyone in America has the right to freedom of religion, but Islam is not a religion.
Religious faith is only a part of Islam. The rest is a socially engineered society with its own laws and
customs that seriously conflict with American law.
Is Great Britain a religion because they have the Church of England? Of course not. Britain has an
established charter, civil and criminal laws, and a society that respects those laws. Islam has the
Qur'an that provides the governing charter, complete with laws, punishment, and social behavior for its
people in addition to its religious teachings. If Islam is a religion, then Britain is also.
We must recognize that religion is only one aspect of Islam‘s Qur'an. The rest of this charter advances
ideas, social behavior, and laws that are in direct conflict with American and western laws and values.
Teddy Roosevelt once said that to live in America, immigrants must have undivided loyalty to America
and to no one else. How is that possible for Muslims who swear loyalty to Islam where their governing
laws are found in the Qur‘an?
What legitimate religion would demand that its members either kill or convert people of other faiths?
What legitimate religion is intent on imposing its own laws on the rest of the entire world? If Islam were
just about praying to Allah and worshiping Mohammed and nothing more, we would not be having a
problem with Islamism and Islamic terrorists. Islam has a global mission to take over and run the world
according to Islamic Shariah law. How can we call that a religion?
What legitimate religion in this country comes with its own civil laws that take precedence over
national, state, and local laws? No, Islam is not a religion. It is a governing doctrine that not only
dictates religious beliefs, but also social behavior that includes laws, penalties and punishments, not by
God, but by people if the laws are not obeyed. Islam is a form of government, not a religion. It does not
belong here. We already have government under our Constitution (sort of).
As Muslims build their mega-Mosques in our nation - financed by Saudi Arabia - they laugh at the
stupid Americans who are selling out their fellow citizens by allowing Islam to take over our country a
little bit at a time. It is the same method used over decades by the Marxist Progressives who now have
control of our government - take away our liberties one little piece at a time until full control and
submission is achieved.
Islamists know they cannot destroy us militarily, but they also know that they can do it with political
correctness and insisting that we respect their freedom of religion, even though they have no respect
for ours. We are extending a welcoming hand to the enemy of our country and western culture under
the pretense of religious freedom.

http://www.greatamericanjournal.com/editor/archives/IslamIsNotAReligionItisForeignLaw.htmlWhat religion recruits killers and terrorists in their place of worship, then sends them off to foreign
training grounds to become proficient at mass murder? I know of only one. They are taught to kill in the
name of God, but this is not the law of God who commanded “thou shall not kill” - it is the law of
Mohammed who commanded “kill them all who will not convert.”
The Qur’an blurs the lines between religion and government and teaches that Islamic government is
God’s law. It certainly is not. Why do we tolerate this abomination in America where our laws maintain
a separation between church and state? To accept Islam in America is to accept Islamic law as well.
Are we out of our minds? Did anyone notice that we are at war with these people? Terrorists feed on
the same rulebook as other Muslims who have so far remained peaceful. Will they be making the same
decision that Barack Obama made when he wrote in “Dreams Of My Father” - "When the political
winds shift in an ugly direction, I will side with the Muslims?" It is always nice to know that our
president is on our side when America goes to war. Too bad this one is not.
The same thing is happening in the southern Border States where Mexicans are taking over cities one
by one. You need look no further than the Los Angeles boycott of Arizona to realize that the city
government in L.A. now sides with Mexico and Mexican Nationals over the legal citizens of this
country.
The strong Democratic population has even elected a Mexican mayor to run the city, and half of the
city council members have Mexican surnames, as do many in the California state legislature. Although
most of these legislators were born here in America, their loyalties seem to lie more with Mexico and
Mexican citizens who are now invading our state along with other Border States.
These people of Mecha and La Raza believe this land is rightfully theirs and they intend to govern it for
their people. Any objections are met with charges of racism aimed at Americans who simply want to
preserve the American language, culture, values, and way of life. Los Angeles has changed a great
deal since this invasion began and many American have moved out to find a new homeland.
What are we going to do when we see the same thing happening in the federal government? What are
we going to do when Muslims demand that the United States respect and enforce Shariah law? They
are already doing it in England and other European countries. It is only a short time before we see it
here too. Shariah is already creeping into the courts and local laws in some states.
Is that the kind of country we want? Or do we want the country that our founders created? I have no
problem with Muslims living in Islamic countries overseas where they can have the kind of society they
desire, as long as they leave us alone and free to enjoy the kind of society that we desire. The two
cannot be reconciled into one united society any more than capitalists can unite with communists. It
must be one or the other.
Some people think we should be bending over backwards to make nice with Muslims and make sure
they feel welcome in our country because that is what America is all about, they say. Immigrants built
America, they say. To an extent, this is true if we are talking about the immigrants who migrated here
to become Americans and help to build this great country over 200 years ago.

http://www.greatamericanjournal.com/editor/archives/IslamIsNotAReligionItisForeignLaw.htmlToday we have way too many foreigners coming to America not to become Americans, but instead to
change America. They want to dominate instead of assimilate. They want us to accept their culture
instead of them accepting our culture and becoming productive members of it.
Are you tired of being called “an immigrant” right here in your home country? I know I am. “America is
a nation of immigrants,” they say. Let me state this for the record. I am not an immigrant, I am a natural
born American. My parents were born here. My grandparents and great grandparents were born here.
How many others in this country have the same family history? How many people reading this have
known no other flag than the American flag?
We are not immigrants, we are Americans - and America is a nation of Americans - not a nation of
immigrants. How much longer will we be able to call ourselves “Americans” with foreign cultures and
emphases on diversity encroaching on our country? People naturally gravitate toward their own kind,
not because they are racists, but because they seek the company of others with whom they have
things in common.
It’s becoming increasingly difficult to relate to people here in Los Angeles who don’t even speak our
language. This creates an atmosphere of mistrust, resentment and hostility when we see our city being
taking over by foreign invaders. Now we have to lock our doors both at home an in our cars.
When America was being built, most everyone was an immigrant - from Europe. That was over 200
years ago. We still welcome immigrants who want to become a part of America and become American
- but where do we draw the line between welcoming friends and embracing our enemies? Obviously, to
those running our government, there is no line thanks largely to Ted Kennedy, Lyndon Johnson, and a
Congress full of Democrats when they passed The Hart-Celler Act of 1965.
"The bill will not flood our cities with immigrants. It will not upset the ethnic mix of our society. It will not
relax the standards of admission. It will not cause American workers to lose their jobs," Kennedy said.
Oh really?
IMMIGRATION TRENDS

http://www.greatamericanjournal.com/editor/archives/IslamIsNotAReligionItisForeignLaw.htmlIf Muslims want to live and work in America and worship their prophet and God, that is not a problem.
But when they try to go beyond their own personal worship and demand that we change our society to
accommodate them, then that is where we need to draw the line. It is not we who should change, it is
they. Just like people migrating from Mexico, they need to discard their old country ways, adapt to
America, assimilate into our society, and become Americans.
Muslim worship is protected under the First Amendment, Islamic law is not. Until Muslims - and our
own government - can accept that, then Islam cannot be considered a religion and Islamic culture does
not belong here in America.
