Of the Team B II New York Briefing and Panel Discussion, Gaffney stated:
The authors will discuss the upcoming Team B II campaign to educate policymakers about the inherent conflict between shariah law and the Constitution, and the urgent need for Congress and federal and state agencies to recognize the peril posed by the "civilization jihad" being waged by the Muslim Brotherhood and its associated U.S.-based organizations.
Patrick Poole's whitepaper detailing the case studies of Muslim Brotherhood operations in the United States and copies of Shariah: The Threat to America will be available at the press briefing. Journalists, homeland security and local law enforcement professionals are invited to attend.
WASHINGTON, DC: In a press briefing announcing the publication of the 370-page Team B II Report, Shariah: The Threat to America, four members of the Team will discuss the book's ground-breaking findings about the totalitarian politico-military-legal program mainstream Islam calls "shariah." They will illuminate the role shariah is playing in both animating the violent attacks being mounted against this country and in insinuating-- through stealthy, "pre-violent" means-- this unconstitutional legal program into the United States.
In the latter regard, the briefing will present case studies of Muslim Brotherhood influence operations that have been mounted against the U.S. government. According to Team B II founder Frank Gaffney of the Center for Security Policy, "The authors will demonstrate that such activities are succeeding in what the Brotherhood calls "civilization jihad" by blinding and silencing American policymakers with respect to the threats posed by shariah. In light of these and other revelations in the new report, Team B II will urge the newly elected 112th Congress to hold urgent hearings to assess the damage entailed by such operations and their repercussions for America's national security."
Copies of the Team B II report, Shariah: The Threat to America are being distributed in coming days to the winners of the 2010 elections and other members of the U.S. Congress, the governors and state attorneys general of all fifty states, major city police chiefs, mayors and other key leaders.
Being overrun by its enemies is what happens to a nation that does what we have done.

no hijack intended.
None taken. But I would encourage you to read the report. Our our culture has many problems that need to be dealt with, but shariah threatens our most basic freedoms guaranteed in the Constitution.
I’m sure it does. My point is only that we’re infested with cockroaches because we haven’t taken out the trash. We need to kill the bugs, but unless we take out the trash...
Thanks for the info. With groups offering the PC version of Islam to foster “tolerance and acceptance”, too many are completely blnd to what Sharia Law is and what it means to our rule of law. We cannot allow this to get a solid foothold within our country.
blnd = blind (which I’m afraid I’m heading towards... darn old age.)
Right On. Nations crumble from within.
When our United States first formed, the individual states acknowledged the English Common Law as the basis of law for our courts. (Reception Statutes.) I believe all states but Louisiana followed suit. (Louisiana accepted the Roman Civil Law which later became an issue in harmonizing uniform building codes.)
For instance, in 1850, California adopted the common law of England (Ca. Stats., pg. 219,), so far as not repugnant to or inconsistent with the Constitution of the United States or laws of the State, as the rule of decision in all the courts of the State. (You can find some discussion of this in early water law cases in the West where riparian rights followed the common law and appropriative law followed the Roman Civil/Spanish law. California ended up in a dual system as applies to water because established mineral claims followed appropriative law. )
I imagine Sharia law would have the same status as Canon or ecclesiastic law, which might inform the court as to beliefs and customary practices of devotees but certainly not take precedence over rights and liberties secured by the Constitutions and laws of the United States and individual states.
