But wouldn’t the first amendment trump all those laws, since it is the Constitution - the law that trumps all other laws?
At best it would be a contradiction.
I firmly believe that that is our biggest problem with Islam.
We cannot fight it like we fought nazism or communism because as it is currently written our own constitution forbids us from fighting it.
For us it’s hard to come to grips with the realization that our most cherished and idealistic “right” as written is flawed, but if we don’t the Islamists will take over, or there will be a revolution.
As to your comment about how we fight it, I completely agree.
It's not just a military conflict but a cultural, ideological, and metaphysical/spiritual conflict to boot.
I am one of those nuts who believes islam is a demonic force.;-)
The war against islam is truly a war between good and evil IMHO.
Many muslims are deeply and profoundly brainwashed by the ritual practices required by islam and breaking them free of its influence will require some serious deprogramming and even that may not consistently work.
