'Unconstitutional': In Massachusetts, Leftists Want to Give Islam Privileged Status
PJ Media ^ | MARCH 19, 2023 | Robert Spencer

Posted on 03/20/2023 2:41:01 PM PDT by george76

Just in case you’re not celebrating diversity enthusiastically enough yet, here is more reason to start waving those diversity pom-poms: a new bill in Massachusetts would give Muslims privileged status. Here we see it yet again: “diversity, equity and inclusion” efforts are inherently and in always and every case a gateway to the preferential treatment of the Left’s favored groups.

“Islam must dominate, and not be dominated,” said Hassan al-Banna, the founder of the Muslim Brotherhood ... In line with the fact that Islamic texts and teachings frequently exhort Muslims to subjugate Infidels (who must be made to “pay the jizya with willing submission and feel themselves subdued,” according to Qur’an 9:29), and never envisions the two living as equals under a secular law, some Muslims in the Bay State are working with their Leftist allies toward achieving a privileged position that other groups do not enjoy.

...

This commission would “identify and recommend qualified American Muslims for appointive positions at all levels of government, including boards and commissions, as the commission considers necessary and appropriate.” No such commissions exist for Jews, Christians, Hindus, Buddhists, atheists, or anyone else. Hassan al-Banna would be delighted.

the executive director of the Massachusetts chapter of the Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), Tahirah Amatul-Wadud, “posted a celebratory tweet

...

the Massachusetts bill “an unprecedented and unconstitutional effort to promote one religion, Islam, over all others,” and said that “it would clearly violate the principle of separation of church and state,” as it “calls for the creation of a government entity that would broadly endeavor to benefit the interests of Muslims.”

...

Leftists, whose taste for authoritarianism is increasingly obvious, are only too happy to introduce bills of this kind and promote Islam above and beyond all other religions.

There is no such thing as “Unconstitutional” anymore. The concept is obsolete and ancient history.

In Europe, differences between groups came into the open.

“identify and recommend qualified American Muslims for appointive positions at all levels of government, including boards and commissions, as the commission considers necessary and appropriate.”

...after they state that Islam must dominate. Sigh...what could go wrong? I’m so tired of apologetic liberals thinking they’re ‘righting’ all the ‘wrongs’ of the world. Liberal women especially - they’ll still think they’re right when a Muslim comes to behead them.

Apparently it is true. There is a senate bill and a house bill:

The left loves islam because islam hates Christianity and this country. They would gladly sell out this country to the islamists if that would eliminate Christianity.

Because like Michael Savage said, liberalism is a mental disorder.

They don’t believe this crap. They just want to create havoc. Bottle up the courts with nonsense. And get people talking about this while they do some other nefarious thing. These people are evil.
