Report: Shariah - The Threat to America
All,
I thought this might be of interest to folks here - hopefully this is the correct forum.
The link is to a report on shariah and attempts to establish it in America. A few of the authors include LTG Boykin, former DCI Woolsey and LTG Soyster (DIA).
Admittedly, I'm still reading it. Knowing very little about Islamic law, I've found it quite interesting.

That report and these individuals are going to leave a mark..... 
I wonder what the "one" will have to say about this report?
Thank you LTG Boykin, glad to see you're still in the fight.

Some of the best minds in the country on the threat assembled for this report. Couple names missing would add are: Ibn Warraq, Hirsi Ali Ayaan, Nonie Darwish, Raymond Ibraham, Walid Phares Robert Spencer and Brigitte Gabriel.

The Shariah Threat
Posted 09/16/2010 07:12 PM ET
Islamofascism: A panel of national security experts concludes that Shariah law is a totalitarian ideology that is being used by advocates of tolerance to undermine the security of the United States.
Challenging the prevailing political correctness regarding tolerance, outreach and endless apologies to the Muslim world for defending ourselves against terrorism, the 177-page report by the Center for Security Policy, "Shariah: The New Threat To America," objectively analyzes the assault on the West by Islamofascism and warns of the grave threat posed by those who seek to use Shariah law to undermine America's legal system, Constitution, national security and way of life.
The report, whose authors included former defense, law enforcement and intelligence officials such as Clinton administration CIA Director R. James Woolsey and Andrew C. McCarthy, former assistant U.S. attorney in New York, a career counterterrorism prosecutor during the Clinton administration, was released Wednesday at a Capitol Hill press conference.
The report concludes the Shariah system is "totalitarian" and incompatible with the U.S. Constitution, our system of democratic lawmaking and the constitutional guarantees of freedom of conscience, individual liberty and freedom of expression, including the right to criticize Shariah law itself.
We have seen evidence of Shariah creeping into our culture and our legal and financial systems. In June 2009, a New Jersey state judge decided that a man who punished his wife with pain for hours and repeatedly raped her was not guilty of criminal sexual assault, citing the man's religious beliefs. The ruling was reversed by an appellate court. Maybe it won't be down the road.
In November 2009, a high school senior was suspended in order to protect him from violence when he wrote an essay criticizing perceived special treatment for Somali Muslims in his school. In Dearborn, Mich., Christian missionaries were arrested for proselytizing at an Arab festival. In Minnesota, the state accommodates Shariah's prohibition on interest payments by buying homes from realtors and reselling them to Muslims at an up-front price. Since when does government structure financial transactions to accommodate a single religious code? Apparently in the Constitution there is no separation of mosque and state.
Shariah is used around the world to condone barbarities such as the stoning and subjugation of women and the execution of homosexuals. It does not support freedom of speech, conscience or religion or even equal treatment under the law
The report cites the 1991 document from the Muslim Brotherhood in North America describing a covert process of Islamic "settlement" in the United States. The plan is to carry out a "grand jihad in eliminating and destroying the Western civilization from within and 'sabotaging' its miserable house by their hands and the hands of the believers so that it is eliminated," the document stated.

Joy Brighton is the real deal. Met her a while back at a conference on the threat.

The threat...
BOOK H
ZAKAT
h1.0 WHO MUST PAY ZAKAT
((Muhammad Shirbini Khatib) Lexically, zakat means growth, blessings, an increase in good, purification, or praise. In Sacred Law it is the name for a particular amount of property that must be paid to certain kinds of recipients under the conditions mentioned below…”h1.1 Zakat is obligatory
(a) for every free Muslim (O: male, female, adult or child):
THOSE FIGHTING FOR ALLAH {Jihad}
h8.17 The seventh category is those fighting for Allah, meaning people engaged in military operations {Jihad} for whom no salary has been allotted …
(Reliance of the Traveller, pages 244-274)
It seems the problem with Shariah-Compliant Finance is the lack of transparency surrounding zakat payments to Islamic charities. Most if not all Shariah-Compliant firms facilitate zakat payments for their clients.
SCF seems to be a problematic activity because Shariah advisors have at their discression the ability to move proceeds of their financial investments into various charities and to migrate money to organizations that are involved in terrorism, IMO, the HLF is a worthy example in which over 12 million went to Hamas.
"...On November 24, 2008, after seven days of deliberation and six weeks of testimony, a jury convicted HLF and five of its leaders on charges of providing material support to Hamas..."
"...HLF and these five defendants provided approximately $12.4 million in support to Hamas and its goal of creating an Islamic Palestinian state by eliminating the State of Israel through violent jihad..."
http://www.nefafoundation.org/hlfdocs.html
HSBC allows for Zakat - how much goes towards those fighting for Allah?
