Newt Gingrich: Test every Muslim in U.S. to see if they believe in Sharia (Nice terror attacks)
CNN ^

Posted on 07/14/2016 11:49:05 PM PDT by quesney

Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich on Thursday called for the U.S. to test every person with a Muslim background to see if they believe in Sharia law, and deport those who do.

"Let me be as blunt and direct as I can be. Western civilization is in a war. We should frankly test every person here who is of a Muslim background, and if they believe in Sharia, they should be deported," Gingrich said in an interview with Fox News' Sean Hannity.

"Sharia is incompatible with Western civilization. Modern Muslims who have given up Sharia, glad to have them as citizens. Perfectly happy to have them next door."

His remarks came in light of a terror attack in Nice, France, where a large truck plowed through a crowd, killing as many as 80 people.

"How do we ascertain -- how do you possibly ascertain whether or not that person really wants assimilation, really wants a new life, or whether or not they want to expand that caliphate, which is what we're at war against?" Hannity asked.

"The first step is you have to ask them the questions," Gingrich responded. "The second step is you have to monitor what they're doing on the Internet. The third step is, let me be very clear, you have to monitor the mosques. I mean, if you're not prepared to monitor the mosques, this whole thing is a joke. Where do you think the primary source of recruitment is? Where do you think the primary place of indoctrination is? You've got to look at the madrassas -- if you're a school which is teaching Sharia, you want to expel it from the country."

It’s good to see Gingrich get some starch in his shorts. Now, if he just won’t reverse course within 24 hours....

It wouldn't surprise me if he walks it back with a "what I really meant was..."

The Sharia law test should be administered to every aspiring immigrant to the USA. If failed, it means that the immigrant will never assimilate, nor will their children.

Deny Entry!

Newt knows exactly what must be done.

"Yeah. It’s not feasible at all. How would he do that?"

You don't think big enough. It's how you implement the task, you put it everywhere, you make them question whether it's worth it to betray us or even live here constantly.

Let's say Mr. Naturalized wants to sponsor cousin Adbulshet to come here from Syria. Mr. Naturalized must first re-swear his Oath of Allegiance at application time:

"I hereby declare, on oath, that I absolutely and entirely renounce and abjure all allegiance and fidelity to any foreign prince, potentate, state, or sovereignty of whom or which I have heretofore been a subject or citizen; that I will support and defend the Constitution and laws of the United States of America against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I will bear arms on behalf of the United States when required by the law; that I will perform noncombatant service in the Armed Forces of the United States when required by the law; that I will perform work of national importance under civilian direction when required by the law; and that I take this obligation freely without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; so help me God."

And while he's pledging that out loud, Mr. Naturalized is also getting an iris scan.

One example. A million ways to implement.

Stop all muslim immigration, visas, and exchanges. Their leadership will go kill the jihadists for us or they’ll stay at home.

Spain, France, Italy and Greece might be too far gone to save. Northern Europe is stupid but catching on.

I sent him a message on Twitter last night asking him to tone down the arrogance because I know soooo many people who are turned off by him because of that. He’s got to cut it with the bragging and stick to the issues otherwise he could lose, and losing to Hillary is going to make him look like one hell of a loser, I mean my God, it’s like running against a Manson girl. He screws this up he will never live it down and we all know how Don feels about losing.

We should frankly test every person here who is of a Muslim background, and if they believe in Sharia, they should be deported," Gingrich said

He's right but he said this wrong. The Left will jump all over it. You might as well ask a Christian if he believes in Christ. Sharia is the goal of all Muslims. The better question is whether they intend to impose Sharia on the West. They will deny it, of course... but that is the more appropriate litmus test.

On a side note: This is what the Spanish Inquisition was about... getting rid of the "closet" Muslims in government after the Catholic monarchy was restored following centuries of Moorish rule. Just thought you'd like to know we're still fighting the same fight.

I agree. Ironically, he's not nearly as arrogant as Hillary or Obama, both of whom appear to me to be pathological narcissists. Hillary in particular appears this way IMHO, as she appears to lack empathy, which is a hallmark.

That said, I think he needs to ‘fill in the blanks’ somewhat when it comes to speaking about what he'll do. He doesn't need to give absolute details, that can be shot at, but to give lists of viable options that he is considering, and to make the point that unlike those who don't meet with or listen to advisors, he will surround himself with the very best, and together they will define real solutions that are based on what is best for the country - not what fits a political agenda or what pleases the financial donors who ‘own’ or influence too many politicians.

At least something along those lines.

If the courts allowed that sort of religious test, which they wouldn’t. <<

The 1st thing to understand is islam is NOT a religion...Its a POLITICAL MOVEMENT.....

“A better test would be to determine if they believe in mohammed and allah. If so, deport them.

Bullseye.

“I am not sure that I agree with Gingrich’s solution, but he has an underlying point. If we officially recognize that we are ar war with radical Islam, we can do things that we otherwise could not do under our constitution.”

If we have a formal declaration of war, then the law against treason comes into play; “aiding and abetting the enemy in time of war”.

And there are many in this government (and nation) that would be up on charges.

Starting with 0.

What Newt doesn't seem to grasp is that Muslim's are allowed to lie to infidels.

Newt has it exactly right.

It remains debatable whether Sharia (the political/legal system) CAN be separated from Islam (the religious faith) --- many say they can't ---but what makes this "religious faith" uniquely offensive is that Islam IS attached to Sharia.

And Sharia is not just a public ethical aspiration, on the level of "thy Kingdom come, the will be done, one earth as it is in heaven." THAT (a phrase from Christianity's most central prayer, the "Lord's Prayer" or "Our Father") is a pledge of a believer's moral behavior, not a political program.

But Sharia has 1400 years of formal jurisprudence behind it. It has been a program of political domination and conquest from Day One, and remains so. It is a legal code built for propagation by force.

People have to understand this. I think Gingrich gets it.

"If they live by Sharia, I don't want them to live by me."

He’s about 15 years too late.

In a rare display of bipartisanship, his buddies (GWB and company) and his Democrat adversaries created an indoctrination program to assure that Americans understand that Islam is a religion of peace. Government-run schools have incorporated in their curricula and the media propagandizes this message continuously.

Trump is making a mistake in choosing Pence over Newt.

Trump has stirred the electorate with apopulist message.

Newt is populism with a plan. That’s the weak link in Trump’s armor: the ability to break down the solution like a double barrel shotgun.
