But the CAIR – Council on American
Islamic Relations – one of Muslim Brotherhood’s fronts in US is desperately fighting
back with the help of Obama’s left-leaning Democrat Party and other left-wing and
Socialist groups to stop those anti-Sharia laws spreading all over United
States.
Below are ten cases of American Muslim
Families who have encountered conflicts between the equal protection under the
Constitution they should have received, and legal discrimination imposed on
them by Shariah law – in American Courts
(excerpted from “Shariah Law and American State Courts“).
In cases 1-3, the Appellate Courts
upheld Shariah law; in cases 4-7, the Trial Courts upheld Shariah, but the
Appellate Courts reversed (protecting the litigant’s constitutional rights); in
cases 8-10, both Trial and Appellate Courts rejected the attempts to enforce
Shariah law.
