An Eye Opening MUST READ ping!
(at least some patriots are fighting back..i.e. Thomas More Law Center)
“That is a big problem for AIG under Uncle Sams management. The First Amendments Establishment Clause has been construed to bar government action (including government underwriting of action) that is pervasively sectarian. Under our jurisprudence, the state is forbidden to act if its secular purposes are inextricably intertwined with a religious mission, as the Supreme Court put it in Bowen v. Kendrick (1988). SCF is Islamic proselytism, and our law prohibits the active involvement of the sovereign in religious activity so said the high court in Lemon v. Kurtzman (1971).
The Thomas More Law Center has filed a lawsuit against Secretary Geithner and the Treasury Department, seeking to shut down AIGs SCF business while that business is owned by the taxpayers. In response, the Obama administration has hilariously denied that SCF is really an Islamic religious activity. Someone will need to break that news to Professor Hayes, the guy who wrote that the raison detre for the practice of Islamic finance is undeniably religious. When the Treasury Department co-hosted a Harvard SCF seminar less than two years ago, it chose none other than Hayes to preside.
Treasury also counters that the public money used for AIGs SCF programs is trivial. That is specious. Geithner has committed $70 billion of our money to AIG. Of this amount, the lawsuit has demonstrated that nearly $1 billion was poured directly into AIGs SCF businesses, and billions more are available for diversion. How much public money is actually promoting sharia finance may be impossible to say with certainty. AIG jointly operates many of its branch offices, using consolidated accounting and non-segregated bank accounts. Neither the government nor AIG has ever issued any regulations or created any firewalls to prevent American taxpayer money from underwriting SCF activities.”
Nice try but the bunch of Chicago gangsters in the WH could care less about US jurisprudence.
These lowlifes laugh in the face of anyone who dares to remind them of US jurisprudence.
