The Islamist Challenge to the U.S. Constitution

Muslims in the U.S. are trying to establish there own seperate enclaves throughout the U.S. The Middle East Quarterly has a good article on it.

Canada has had some experiance with this in recient years as the article notes

While U.S. law might give such Muslims-only events the benefit of the doubt, flexibility may not go both ways. There is precedent of Islamists taking advantage of liberal flexibility to more extreme ends. Canada provides a useful example into how Islamist groups can exploit liberal legal tolerance. In 1991, Ontario, Canada, passed a seemingly innocuous law called the "Arbitration Act."[8] This act permitted commercial, religious, or such other designated arbitrators to settle civil disputes outside the Canadian justice system so long as the result did not contradict Canadian law. Like U.S. authorities are beginning to do now, Canadian legislators decided to give religious groups the benefit of the doubt, assuming that they would still hold national law to be paramount.

In October 2003, under the auspices of the Ontario legislation, the Islamic Institute of Civil Justice created Muslim arbitration boards and stated its intent to arbitrate on the basis of Islamic law.[9] A national furor erupted, particularly among Canadian Muslim women's groups that opposed the application of traditional Islamic (Shari‘a) laws that would supersede their far more liberal and egalitarian democratic rights. After nearly two years of legal wrangling, the premier of Ontario, Dalton McGuinty, held that religious-based arbitrations "threaten our common ground," and announced, "There will be no Shari‘a law in Ontario. There will be no religious arbitration in Ontario. There will be one law for all Ontarians."[10] On November 15, 2005, McGuinty's provincial government submitted legislation to amend the arbitration act to abrogate, in effect, all religious arbitration.[11] Requests for Muslim enclaves within larger U.S. communities may signal that U.S. jurisprudence will soon be faced with a similar conundrum. Islamist exceptionalism can abuse the tolerance liberal societies have traditionally extended to interface between religious and secular law.

In the Middle East the West is locked in battle with the Jihadists. Europe has faltered and only reciently begin to fight back, though it is probably too little too late. Now the Jihadist seek to gain a foothold in North America. A base in which to begin the Jihad here in earnest. It is time for all Canadians and Americans to speak up and demand that Islam submit to the secular laws, and the free society that so many have bled for. I can see the war clouds gathering, how long before Canada is given the choice to submit to Islamic Law, or face a war the likes of which few in this country are prepared to face?
