U.S. Files Discrimination Lawsuits On Behalf Of Muslims
Judicial Watch ^ | 9/2/2010

Posted on 09/02/2010 9:45:01 AM PDT by markomalley

The Obama Administration’s taxpayer-funded Islamic defense program has been quite busy this week, filing several discrimination lawsuits on behalf of Muslims in different parts of the country and holding Justice Department meetings to discuss prosecuting “anti-Muslim hate speech.”

The legal actions come on the same week that the White House and various federal agencies—including the Department of Homeland Security—hosted a special workshop to provide members of radical Islamic groups with direct access to U.S. government funding, assistance and resources. Read all about that here.

Now the administration is flexing its legal muscle in its ardent quest to befriend the enemy. A federal civil rights agency known as the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) has filed discrimination lawsuits against companies in Nebraska, California and Colorado for discriminating against Muslims by not accommodating prayer breaks and forbidding a headscarf on the job.

The government sued meatpacking plants in Greeley Colorado and Grand Island Nebraska for religious and racial harassment because dozens of Muslim employees were “denied prayer time” during the Islamic holy month of Ramadan. The lawsuit seeks changes to policies and procedures to accommodate Muslim workers, payment for past and future damages and punitive damages.

In a third lawsuit filed this week the EEOC claims that an outdoor apparel store discriminated against a Muslim female job applicant in northern California because she wore a headscarf known as a hijab. The company has a longstanding employee dress code banning any sort of head covering but the government asserts that in this particular case it’s discriminating on the basis of religion.

Also this week, the Justice Department met with a coalition of Islamic groups that demand the administration criminally prosecute anti-Muslim rhetoric as hate speech. Besides investing more resources to combat discrimination against Muslims, coalition leaders want Attorney General Eric Holder to “make a strong public statement” condemning hate crimes, harassment and discrimination against Muslims.

That’s going to be a problem for them when the Saudis finally complete their “Mecca time” clock in the segregated capital of the Islamic empire”

The European Infidels are responsible for the clock construction. The saudis just purchased it.

The saudis cannot construct something like that without Infidel help.

Point that out; otherwise, it makes them look competent at something besides t_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ m.

Besides, with 2/3 of the male population unwilling to work, who else would build it?

Thanx!

Strange behavior for someone who’s denying he’s a Muslim.

“While the U.S. government has kept the event quiet, it was announced in a newsletter by a Saudi-funded group (Islamic Society of North America or ISNA) that was a co-conspirator in a federal terrorist funding case a few years ago. Featured in a Judicial Watch special report on Muslim charities that finance terrorism, ISNA is firmly committed to spreading the radical form of Islam, which is the driving force behind Jihad.

Now the Obama Administration is helping ISNA and its radical Islamic counterparts access American taxpayer resources as well as top government officials.”

Not good at all.

I guess some peaceful wahhabi is coming over to visit soon...better get the hummus ready.

IT’S NOT A RACE, AND IT’S POLITICAL, NOT RELIGIOUS.

If I were king, the deportations would have begun a long time ago. Mohammedism and liberty are mutual exclusive. Muslims will always choose Islam over being an American any day, just as I am a Christian first and an American second.

We truly live in a Bizarro world. Muslims get to pray, or else there is a lawsuit, but Christians can't even have a nondenominational prayer at graduation ceremonies.

The majority of the people in the US have steadily lost their rights to accommodate the rights of the minority. I think we are all tired of 70% of the people being forced to live the way only 20% of the people want.

The tyranny of the minority.

I asked myself the rhetorical question, “where does this idiotic assault on America end?” And I answered my own question - “by terminating the current usurper’s occupancy of the WH and undoing EVERY destructive thing he has done since 01/20/09. This HAS to end.

After that, if the muzzies can’t handle freedom in America, there is NOTHING preventing them from leaving. We’ll even hold the door open for them to make sure that they aren’t offended when it hits them in the a$$.

I wonder what would happen if every American created their own religion and demanded special accommodations from employers and government so they could practice it.

I LIKE this idea!! 300+ million individual religions, all clamoring for special exemptions from the government!! BEAUTIFUL!!!!

Obama needs to be impeached, tried for treason and brought to justice.

Where is the protection from harrasment and hate speech when a nutcase and his followers harrass the mourners at a funeral of one of our fallen heros? Where is the protection for voters of any color when the Black Panthers spew hate and talk about killing white babies ?
I so hate this dumb f—k usurper and everyone associated with him.
