Former Tennessee State University physics professor Bill French runs the Nashville-based, for-profit Center for the Study of Political Islam. He spoke recently to a group of opponents of the Murfreesboro mosque gathered at a house in Murfreesboro. With an American flag as a backdrop, French paced back and forth like the Church of Christ ministers he heard growing up. His message: how creeping Shariah law is undermining the very fabric of American life. "This offends Allah," said French, pointing to the flag on the wall. "You offend Allah." French, who has no formal education in religion, believes Islam is not a religion. Instead, he sees Islam and its doctrine and rules - known as Shariah law - as a totalitarian ideology. In his 45-minute speech, he outlined a kind of 10 commandments of evil - no music, no art, no rights for women - taken from his book Sharia Law for Non-Muslims. The speech was free, but his books, penned under the name "Bill Warner," were for sale in the back and ranged from about $9 to $20. When he was done, the 80 or so mosque opponents gave him a standing ovation and then began buying French's books to hand out to their friends. Frank Gaffney, head of the Washington, D.C.-based nonprofit Center for Security Policy, earned a $288,300 salary from his charity in 2008. Gaffney was a key witness in recent hearings in the Rutherford County lawsuit filed by mosque opponents. He said he paid his own way. On the stand, the Reagan-era deputy assistant defense secretary accused local mosque leaders of having ties to terrorism, using ties to Middle Eastern universities and politics as evidence. His main source of information was his own report on Shariah law as a threat to America, one he wrote with other self-proclaimed experts. But, under oath, he admitted he is not an expert in Shariah law.
Thank you for everything that you've taught me. I think this is the best illustration of how Muslims are supposed to act in the land of the kafir. It's a hilarious example, and I think it could be very helpful and teaching and illustrating what you're talking about when you speak of "Jihad other than the sword": th-cam.com/video/kJEYSqVEn3A/w-d-xo.htmlsi=bGd7OmCi2hloeIaT
