Islamic Groups: We Want Exemption From Anti-Jihad Prosecutions
Daily Caller ^ | 02/17/2015 | Neil Munro

U.S.-based Islamist groups are pushing for rules that would shield Muslim political leaders and clerics from being charged with supporting jihad terrorism.

The demands are being pushed by the Council on American-Islamic Relations, just before Obama is slated to headline three days of White House meetings this week on federal efforts to mitigate the jihadi violence that is emerging from the growing population of Muslim immigrants.

Justice Department “policies should make clear that those who intervene to [stop attacks] should not suffer for it by being subjected to prosecution, watchlisting, or surveillance because of their association with a potential violent extremist,” said a CAIR statement.

“The Department of Justice should issue guidelines … to protect those who act in good faith to prevent violent extremism by engaging with [Muslims] considering it in order to dissuade them,” CAIR demanded.

CAIR’s demand for Islamic autonomy and status is echoed by other Islamist and progressive advocates, including the ACLU and Farhana Khera, a Muslim lawyer who helped organize a Feb. 4 meeting of Muslim advocates with Obama in the White House.

Khera has campaigned against the post-9/11 police oversight of Islamic communities, and against widespread public criticism of Islamic ideas, such as jihad, Shariah, the caliphate, and the relegation of non-Muslim to apartheid-like “dhimmi” status in Muslim theocracies.

In 2010, she complained about the arrest and deportation of a Muslim cleric who had tipped off a U.S-based jihadi about police surveillance, following a meeting with FBI officials.

Well, it’s a safe bet that Obama’s new nominee for AG will be a DOJ informer to CAIR on any operations.

This is how they gain control of everything, by being exempt from our laws and subject to Sharia law only, in their communities. But as that community expands so must Sharia, until it covers everyone, and they are in control of everything.

Islam is not a religion nor is it a cult, it is a complete system.
Islam has religious, legal, political, economic and military components.
The religious component is a beard for all the other components.

Is this satire?

Because if it isn’t, then all of the jihadi ISIS wannabe’s, and their CAIR enablers and recruiters will have to deal with ALL of the infidels that surround them here in the US, and all of the whining and lawyering in the world will not save them.

Consider it an ultimatum.

So jihadi-supporting towelheads met with our fearless leader who showed them how much he loves them over normal Americans.
