Sheriff in L.A. Submits to Islam

Dear Dr. Bulldog,

Perhaps your readers need a break from the Presidential Political Campaign. Here is another story that isn’t getting much attention. The well-known Sheriff of Los Angeles county joined a gaggle of dhimmis in a news conference to condemn the award-winning film Obsession which was distributed to about 26 million people in the last month or so. Here are some of my views which are free to draw from, as well as some documents posted on the Internet.

Chris,
Los Angeles

As a Los Angeles County resident, I was dismayed that our County Sheriff would join the Muslim Public Affairs Council in a press conference condemning the award-wining documentary Obsession on October 13. Apparently, this anti-terrorism film was re-cast as a piece of anti-Muslim hate speech. I wonder if Sheriff Baca actually saw the film. (See attached documents.)

In a statement signed by Sheriff Baca and host of assorted religious and civic notables called the Coalition for Renewing American Democracy, the group said,

We would like to invite those who seem so eager to influence American public opinion against Muslims to engage with us in a conversation about what it means to be an American: about our beliefs, and the need to treat each other with respect across the issues that divide us.

I am recommending that readers rise up to that challenge. Here are suggestions from the attached FrontPageMagazine article, as well as my own:

1. The Muslim Public Affairs Council is an organization identified as a California-based Muslim Brotherhood front. The Muslim Brotherhood is an unindicted co-conspirator in the Holy Land Foundation prosecution in Texas. Al Qaeda’s number two leader, Ayman al-Zawahri joined the Muslim Brotherhood at age 14 and continues to advocate their jihadist goals. The Muslim Brotherhood has been banned in the country that spawned it, Egypt, since their assassination of President Anwar Sadat. As stated in the organization’s charter and on its website, the Muslim Brotherhood seeks to install an Islamic empire ruled under Sharia Law and a Caliphate across the Muslim world and ultimately the entire world, through stages designed to “Islamisize,” incrementally, targeted nations — which includes the United States. All of this is spelled out in “Ikhwan (Brotherhood) in America” which can be viewed on the Internet.
2. “Obsession” does not demonize Muslims, except for their general failure to stand up against those Islamists who advocate terrorism and jihad. The film is about “Radical Islam’s war against the West.” It makes a clear link between terrorism and the sacred texts of the Quran, which commands, “Believers, make war on the infidels who dwell around you. Deal firmly with them.” (Repentance — 9:123)

3. If the signers of the joint statement are concerned about treating each other with respect, I would ask how they reconcile the following commands from the God of Islam with that position:

a. “Believers, take neither Jews nor Christians for your friends.” (The Table — 5:51)

b. “People of the Book [Jews and Christians], most of you are evil-doers . . . whom God has cursed and with whom He has been angry, transforming them into apes and swine, and those who serve the devil.” (The Table — 5:58-59)

c. “Can they [the unbelievers] not see how We invade their land and curtail its borders? (The Prophets — 21:44)

d. “When We resolve to destroy a city, We first give warning to those of its people who live in comfort. If they persist in sin, judgment is irrevocably passed, and We raze the city to the ground.” (The Night Journey — 17:16)

4. Sheriff Baca — an elected peace officer — should understand that the longest chapter in the Quran bears his family name — The Cow (or Al Baqarah). Among other things, this chapter makes a mockery of the Jewish practice for peacefully resolving a murder when the assailant is unknown, as described in Deuteronomy 21:1-9. Our Judeo-Christian tradition supports justice regardless of religious belief, but Islam makes a clear exception for crimes committed by Muslims against non-Muslims. While the Quran says, “It is unlawful for a believer to kill another believer except by accident” (Women — 4:92), Shariah Law provides that there is no penalty (retaliation) a Muslim killing a non-Muslim. (Reliance of the Traveler, Para o2.0(2)) Sheriff Baca needs to recognize that the practice of Islam, particularly with regard to law enforcement, is in opposition to the laws he has sworn to enforce.
