Islam and The Cowardice and Hypocrisy of the Left

By Rich Kozlovich

"Definition leads to clarity.  Clarity leads to understanding.  Understanding leads to good decision making".  Good decision making leads to harmony.  RK

I've been saying that for years,  and let's be clear - what we are in desparate need of here is clarity, and we can only attain that by defining reality!

Michael Curtis wrote an article for America Thinker entitled, Muslim Women Must Be Emancipated, saying there is was a "bill introduced in October 2015 by another Caroline, Baroness Cox in the House of Lords. This legislation is intended to outlaw gender discrimination in the Islamic sharia courts in the U.K. It would make illegal anything that constitutes discrimination, harassment, or victimization on grounds of sex."

He goes on to say, "The surprising announcement on January 8, 2016 that Shamim Qureshi, a Bristol Crown Court Judge, had been granted permission to sit as a presiding judge on a sharia court, the Muslim Arbitration Tribunal (MAT), in Nuneaton, Warwickshire, set up in 2007, has drawn extra attention to the issue of discrimination against women, as well as the appropriateness of mixing official, national, secular law with religious law"

Let's be clear - Great Britain is a country run by socialists, as in secularists, so how did Sharia courts (religious courts) ever come into being in such a country?  The Arbitration Act of 1996!

Under the act, the sharia courts are classified as arbitration tribunals. The rulings of arbitration tribunals are binding in law. The Brits quietly created a dual judicial system, and one of them violates every position leftists have promoted for 150 years.  Which do you think it is?

"Unlike aborigine, Catholic, or Jewish tribunals, Muslim tribunals seek "to impose their cultural values on Western society."   And those impositions extend far and away beyond judicial matters.  

"Life in Nigeria has resulted in Christian provinces now forcibly being made to accept sharia law in place of the secular constitution. In 2003 in Aubervilliers, Fance, the city council was forced to close the municipal swimming pool so that Muslim women could swim in private. And in America and Great Britain, seeing-eye dogs raise the ire of Muslim taxicab drivers who consider dogs "impure."

Canada has much the same situation going on there, with 65% of Muslim supporting such courts. There is one thing we can take from all these issues surrounding Islam and the Left.  The left has been exposed as the contemptible cowards and hypocrites they are.  For decades we heard the left - and still do in western countries where they won't be killed for verbalizing their views - scream about rape and no matter what the woman does it's the fault of the rapist, and I agree! 

A woman can foolishly put herself in a position for it happen suggesting a share of the blame, but stupid isn't an excuse for rape.  The person doing the raping is guilty of the most heinous crime that can be committed against a woman short of death.  This is an act that will haunt her for the rest of her life, and a man who will rape a woman has no mercy - a man who will rape a woman would willingly kill a woman - and that man should be put to death.  There - I think that lends clarity to the subject - don't you think?  Besides - that's God's view on the subject and I think quoting the Supreme Being on a moral issue is fundamentally reasonable when so many have so many problems defining any sense of morality at all.

Yet we see the left finding all sorts of reasons to justify or ameliorate the seriousness of this crime when it's a Muslim man, or men, who rape a woman of the west.  One German official - a woman mayor - said German women must come to realize we live in a multicultural society and German women must adjust so as to not unjustifiable inflame Muslim men with their appearance. Apparently rape, and even gang rape, by Muslims must be tolerated because you see - now of a sudden it's the women's fault.

For years the left screamed there can be no involvement by religion in politics - it's against the Constitution - according to leftists, yet here we have leftists acceding to or even promoting Muslim controlled Sharia courts in many western countries, and most of these countries are controlled by socialists.....as in leftists.....as in secularists.   What changed?  Is this transformation have anything to do with the fact Muslims kill those who disagree with them?  Leftists only attack those who won't attack back  with violence.

The left - especially now with the upcoming election - rails against any possible real, impugned or even imaginary gender discrimination - yet Muslims practice this as a way of life. Women have no rights under the laws of Islam. They are de-facto property of their husbands. Why aren't these leftists marching in front of embassy's of Muslim run countries?  Why aren't they condemning Muslims worldwide? 

Because Muslims kill people they disagree with without fear of condemnation by their leaders of the societies that fermented this mentality.  In point of fact - Muslim society praises them.  And that includes the women who are so blatantly mistreated. 

So how do you emancipate women who approve for their condition?  We can start by recognizing Islam isn't a religion.  It's a criminal political organization masquerading as a religion.  The fact this masquerade has gone on so long, so far and with so many - is immaterial!
