Sounds like a form of arbitration.

[Sacajaweau]

All this is...is a few muzzies saying they don’t want to go to US courts.

[AEMILIUS PAULUS]

This is a step towards an act of sovereignty and Americans simply do not have the strength to form an effective resistance. Lord what a disgusting demographic Americans have become; i.e. any little group of Third World imbeciles can push us around at will.

[zzwhale]

First they ask for equal treatment, then they'll ask for legal recognition by other legal bodies, then they'll ask it'll be the law of the land.
For everybody.

[TexasCajun]

Does that mean a head-chopper can be found not-guilty by this islamic tribunal and escape US criminal justice via the Double-Jeopardy Clause?

Don't laugh, Barack Hussein Obama might just agree.

We once were a nation of laws, before Mexican loyalists and Islamists began colonizing this settled nation.

they can call themselves whatever they like, they aren’t a real court

It worked so well in France...

[rockinqsranch]

It doesn’t matter what it’s called. The problem is that it has been allowed to exist. It’s the Moozie’s nose under the edge of the tent. The tent will be full of Moozies very soon IF it’s not stopped.

“Sharia law to resolve civil disputes in family and business matters”

Replacing divorce law and contract with the will of Imams.

I feel so much better now.

Search the archives of JihadWatch.org to review the meteoric rise of shariah courts in the UK. IIRC, about a dozen shariah courts were sanctioned the first year and by the second year there were over a hundred operating and boasting their existence prior to first dozen. Sadly, traitor to the CoE, archbishop Rowan (at the time) expressed this was a welcome trend.

In August 2007, sharia courts began passing judgements. Two more courts are being planned for Edinburgh and Glasgow. Sheikh Faiz-ul-Aqtab Siddiqi, chairman of the governing counsel of the tribunal anticipates the courts will be handling a number of smaller criminal cases in coming years as more muslim clients approach them. "All we're doing is regulating community affairs in these cases" said Sheikh Faiz-ul-Aqtab Siddiqi.

"It appears the British sharia court allowance is expanding from domestic relations and inheritance to criminal issues as we speak. (2008)"

When it comes to Islam, nothing is as innocuous as it appears. Expect the same explosion of shariah courts here in the US. Once the camels nose is allowed to penetrate the skirt if the tent, it becomes increasingly difficult to push back in this climate of victimology.

[rhubarbk]

The camels nose is in the tent.

[dfwgator]

One of the attorneys for the tribunal said participation and acceptance of the tribunal’s decisions are “voluntary.”

For now.

[PapaNew]

This is a state issue. The state of Texas could certainly disallow and shut down such a tribunal as contrary to the laws and Constitution of the state of Texas. They should do just that.

[arthurus]

I wonder just how voluntary it all is, given known propensities of Moslems to kill people who don’t do what they think is correct.
