| Newt Gingrich: Deport all Muslims who support shariah law |
| 2016-07-15 |
| [Wash Times] One of the Republican Party’s most-prominent figures blamed the Nice terror attack on gutless Western elites and called for the deportation of every Muslim in the U.S. who supports shariah law. In an interview Thursday night on Fox News’ Channel’s "Hannity" show, former House Speaker Newt Gingrich called for the monitoring of mosques and said America’s ruling class is too afraid to do this. "This is the fault of Western elites who lack the guts to do what is right, to do what is necessary," he said. "We better rethink the rules, or we’re going to lose the war." "You have to monitor the mosques," Mr. Gingrich said. "Where do you think the primary source of recruitment is? We should ... test every person here who is of a Muslim background, and if they believe in shariah, they should be deported." And from the left, the Huffington Post article. Same subject. |

| #23 What European Conservative said. If they place sharia law over the Constitution when asked on oath - sorry. Go deport yourself to a place that does place sharia law as the ultimate authority. Your place is anywhere but here. |

| #21 People are entitled to stupid beliefs. They are not entitled to preach hate and the murder of infidels. Deport the latter. |

| #19 Newt is on the scent but hasn't reached the critter. The critter is fanaticism for sole religious validity. Here are two posts exploring that topic: 1- On Dr. M. Zuhdi Jasser: http://theological-geography.net/?p=23580 2- A Warning Order For Muslims: http://theological-geography.net/?p=3369 |

| #17 I'd be happy if you stay away from the non-sequitors. |

| #14 Lucky for us our laws are, at least for the most part, based on Judeo Christian ethics. |

| #13 OK, so Newt won't be the Veep. How about Secretary of State? |

| #8 The Ten Commandments do not require the death or enslavement of unbelievers, so that's a false parallel. |

| #7 Problem is the reverse question. Do you believe the Ten Commandments.over-rides mortal law? Or in another confessional Do you believe in the two great commandments? If not, why not, here are your tickets. |

| #5 Do you now, or would you ever consider owning an F-150 ? |

| #4 Just use a polygraph: "Do you believe that Sharia takes precedence over USA constitution? Answer yes or no." If the true answer is "yes", "Here are your one way tickets.". As a matter of fact, how about an analogous ("Do you believe that USA constitution is a supreme law of the land?") polygraph test for all your elected officials? |

| #3 I wonder how much they have been radicalized by the Grievance Industry. |

| #2 We seemed to be doing fine with the Muslims here before we started importing a bunch of radical imams. |

| #1 The Qur'an is the principal source of Islamic law so anyone professing the Muslim faith would be subject to deportation. Or do have I got it wrong ? |
