Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

Texas attorney general takes legal action against Islamic Tribunal’s effort to impose Sharia in Texas

By

The Islamic Tribunal and its leftist allies will no doubt insist that Sharia is purely private religious law for Muslims, and doesn’t conflict with the Constitution or interfere with the rights of non-Muslims. The Tribunal and its allies will claim that Paxton and those who agree with him are just racist, bigoted, “Islamophobes.” Once again, everyone who opposes Paxton will pretend that Sharia’s political, supremacist, expansionist and violent aspects simply don’t exist.

Comments

  1. My clown of a Congresswoman, Mary Gay Scanlon, continues to insist in pure and total ignorance that Sharia is just Islamic religious law and no different from other religious law like Roman Catholic Canon Law or Judaic Law. She has no clue that Sharia, unlike other religious law, is meant for all, believer or non-believer alike, and which religious law is inimical to wonderful things such as true freedom and women’s rights.

    Of course, she is a Democrat. And yes, I know that many Republicans still remain willfully ignorant of Islam’s nefarious religious law but many Republicans do not. What Democrat has manifested true understanding of what Sharia intends for all of us here in America? I know of none.

    • Every democrat gleefully sworn into office, one hand on a Qur’an, by another democrat–aren’t they all?–validates your post.

    • Wellington says,

      “What Democrat has manifested true understanding of what Sharia intends for all of us here in America? I know of none.”

      I took some time to really think about it.

      I, also, know of none…

  2. Good for Mr. Paxton.
    If muzzies want to live by the disgustingly evil *rules* of their belief, they can travel….they always have lots of money….to some stan where there are no freedoms except for the males to steal, destroy, rape and murder.

  4. Bravo to Texas – and Paxton – for preserving the freedoms given under our founding documents and laws – and not giving in to the quiet overthrow of our culture and values by the growing 5th column of Islamists.

  5. “Evangelists free to preach the gospel outside Texas mosque after court throws out lawsuit”

    “A Texas court has dismissed a lawsuit filed by a Dallas-area mosque that sought to restrict Christian missionaries from preaching the Gospel and distributing religious pamphlets on public property near the mosque.

    The lawsuit, initially filed in October 2025 by the East Plano Islamic Center (EPIC) against Testimonies of God (TOG), a Christian apologetics and evangelism ministry led by Landon Thurman, along with Heritage Grace Community Church, Jason Osborne, and 20 unnamed defendants, sought a court order to prohibit missionaries from engaging in speech or distributing “Evangelical pamphlets, letters, fliers or other documents offensive to the Islamic faith.”

    EPIC filed the lawsuit after claiming that TOG and other named defendants interrupted services at the mosque starting last September when they “made it a weekly practice to stand on the sidewalks and lawns outside [EPIC] mosque with loudspeakers and bullhorns, intentionally disrupting Plaintiff’s prayer services with loud evangelical messaging about Christianity and the ‘teachings of Jesus.’”

    Attorneys for the mosque claimed TOG, led by Thurman, along with defendants Heritage Grace Community Church, Jason Osborne, and John Does 1-20, “set up a tent, brought external speakers, and came with evangelical pamphlets and signs that they attempted to hand to passers-by, all of whom were attempting to enter the mosque for prayer services.”

    In response to the complaint, attorneys for Thurman and TOG called the mosque’s suit a “shocking and illegal demand” and “an unthinkable attack on our country’s core values of free speech and freedom of. religion.”

    “Under the injunction that [EPIC] demands, a local church would be prohibited from even handing out free Bibles if doing so were “offensive to the Islamic faith,” the filing stated.

    The plaintiffs also told the court their preaching location was approximately 500 feet away from the mosque with a strip mall separating them and the mosque, and said they befriended the head of security, who was also the property manager, who offered to give them a tour of the mosque, but had also asked the men to stop calling Islam a false religion. The evangelists said they could not comply with that request, but ensured the volume of the sound equipment was not disruptive for those inside the mosque, and the volume was in compliance with city regulations, which was monitored by police.

    A representative of EPIC acknowledged in court testimony that the preaching is not audible inside the mosque.
    “[They] do not want to disrupt or prevent religious services at the mosque but to proclaim the truth in love. They want to exercise their rights to free speech and to respect every person, regardless of what they believe, because each person is made in the image of God, and Christians are commanded to love their neighbors as they would love themselves,” the filing stated.

    On March 23, the court granted a motion to dismiss the case under the Texas Citizens Participation Act (TCPA), a state law designed to protect free speech from lawsuits intended to suppress it. The ruling allows the missionaries to continue their activities.

    The court’s order also permits the defendants to seek recovery of costs and attorney’s fees. EPIC might pursue an appeal.

    “This lawsuit was an extraordinary demand by EPIC to ban missionaries from peacefully, and on public property, handing out religious flyers and preaching the Gospel,” said Lea Patterson, an attorney at Butterfield & Patterson, the law firm representing the defendants. “We are grateful that the Court recognized that such demands are a serious challenge to our country’s core values of free speech and freedom of religion.”

    Had the lawsuit proceeded, Patterson said, it would have likely been a significant blow to religious freedom in Texas. “If successful, the lawsuit would have effectively given EPIC a heckler’s veto, empowering EPIC to ban any speech it finds offensive, including the Gospel, within the general vicinity of the mosque, even though that speech occurs on a public sidewalk, where our right to free speech is strongest,” she added. ”

    “[They] do not want to disrupt or prevent religious services at the mosque but to proclaim the truth in love. They want to exercise their rights to free speech and to respect every person, regardless of what they believe, because each person is made in the image of God, and Christians are commanded to love their neighbors as they would love themselves,” the filing stated.

    • If I lived in that area I would attend as an athiest supporter of the U.S. Constitution on the side of The First Amendment. I would happily side with those religious Americans who recognize the value and meaning of the First Amendment and against anyone who tries to negate the First Amendment.
      As Hitchens used to say “Who cares if you’re offended?”

  6. The Attorney General is right and righteous for taking a legal stand against the efforts of the stealth jihadists to force Sharia on the State of Texas.

    For Texas is one member of the United States , Therefore, America has something that is better and superior . It’s the US Constitution

    When it comes down to it . The question may be asked “Exactly is Sharia ?” The answer is to that the actual origin of Sharia had been revealed in a Time –Life book with the title MESOPOTAMIA: THE MIGHTY KINGS copyright 1995 ” For that future history book about the ancient pagan world of Mesopotamia informs the reader that “many Islamic laws resemble the Babylon and Assyrian forebears.” .page 150.

    Therefore Sharia is of pagan origin and therefore has no value or worth.Therefore , Texas nor any other State which up the US doesn’t need ancient pagan law installed in this country.

    • if a Jewish school is funded, they would also have to find an islam school.

      Better to have private religious education and not have religious education publicly funded.

  8. That Islamic tribunal which is composed Muslims who are also stealth jihadists ,attempt to have established in Texas is one part in the entire scheme which is slowly and steadily by insidious political maneuvering hope for the gradural Islamization of America.

    This Muslim stealth jihadist scheme for achieving the goal of their Islamic agenda is as, many times, as subtly effective as it is demonically clever. Furthermore, this Islamic gradual takeover in some ways, is very similar to the instruction printed in the book entitled THE ART OF WAR by Sun Tzu. Which reads, “At first, then, exhibit the coyness of a maiden, until the enemy gives you an opening; afterwards emulate the rapidity of a running hare, and it will be too late for the enemy to oppose you.”

  9. “DeSantis signs Sharia law ban: What it means for Florida courts”

    “Republican Governor Ron DeSantis on Monday signed HB 1471, a sweeping bill that bars Florida courts from applying foreign or religious laws—including Sharia law—when doing so would violate constitutional rights.

    The legislation also expands Florida‘s independent authority to designate and defund what it deems domestic terrorist organizations, marking what DeSantis called the “strongest action” any state has taken against both overt and “stealth jihad.”
    The signing drew immediate pushback from civil liberties advocates. The Council on American-Islamic Relations-Florida (CAIR) in a press release called the law “draconian” and warned it threatens free speech, religious freedom and due process. Executive Director Hiba Rahim said the bill appeared “agenda-driven” from the start, adding that reports the governor’s office directly wrote the legislation raised serious concerns on erosion of the separation of powers.

    Why It Matters
    Monday’s signing is the culmination of a monthslong push at both the federal and state level to crack down on Muslim Brotherhood-linked organizations.

    In December, President Donald Trump signed an executive order directing the secretaries of State and Treasury to assess whether certain Muslim Brotherhood chapters—including those in Egypt, Lebanon and Jordan—warranted designation as foreign terrorist organizations, with a 45-day window to act if they did so.
    That same month, DeSantis moved in parallel, announcing via X that Florida was unilaterally designating the Muslim Brotherhood and CAIR as “foreign terrorist organizations” and directing state agencies to cut off support to anyone backing them. A federal court blocked that order in March after a coalition including the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) and the Muslim Legal Fund of America challenged it as unconstitutional.

    In January, the U.S. Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control, in coordination with the State Department, followed through on Trump’s directive—designating the Egyptian and Jordanian branches of the Muslim Brotherhood as Specially Designated Global Terrorists for their material support of Hamas.

    HB 1471 now attempts to make Florida’s approach permanent through statute, ensuring those federal designations can be enforced at the state level while also giving Florida its own independent designation authority.
    ·

    How It Changes Florida Courts
    At its core, the bill creates a formal statutory firewall preventing Florida courts from recognizing or enforcing foreign judgments, contracts or legal provisions that conflict with constitutional protections. That explicitly includes Sharia law, which Florida Lieutenant Governor Jay Collins—a retired Green Beret—called a political code incompatible with the U.S. Constitution.

    DeSantis signed the bill at a Tampa news conference alongside Collins and legislative leaders, singling out the Muslim Brotherhood and CAIR as organizations the legislation is designed to counter. He cited a recent incident at Old Dominion University as a catalyst for the state’s approach.

    New Powers Over Terrorism Designations
    Beyond the courts, HB 1471 gives Florida sweeping new counterterrorism authority, according to the governor’s office. Key provisions include authorizing the Florida Department of Law Enforcement’s chief of domestic security to recommend domestic terrorist organization designations and enforcing them at the state level; impose felony penalties for providing material support—including money, weapons or military training—to designated groups; bar public universities from using state funds to promote terrorism or jihad; and prohibit private schools receiving state vouchers from affiliating with students or organizations that promote extralegal violence.

    Collins framed the legislation as a generational defense of Western values. “I have personally seen women murdered for wanting an education,” he said, drawing on his service in Afghanistan and Iraq. “Today, Florida says no — not now, not ever,” according to Florida Voice News.

    Muslim Civil Rights Group Calls Bill a ‘Police State’ Power Grab
    CAIR condemned the signing swiftly and sharply, calling HB 1471 an attempt to establish a “police state” in violation of constitutional rights, according to a press release from the organization. The group announced a news conference for noon Tuesday ET at its Tampa and Sunrise offices, with a livestream available on its Instagram page.

    Rahim pointed to what she described as a pattern of politically motivated targeting, noting that a coalition including the Southern Poverty Law Center and Muslim Legal Fund of America won a federal injunction in March against a prior DeSantis executive order that had labeled CAIR a terrorist organization without legal authority or evidence.

    At the national level, CAIR recently designated the congressional “Sharia-Free America Caucus” as an anti-Muslim hate group—the first time in the organization’s 32-year history it has made such a designation against a congressional caucus.

    What People Are Saying
    DeSantis: “This legislation will help the state of Florida protect you, your tax dollars, and things that should not be happening in the United States of America.”

    State Representative Hillary Cassel, bill sponsor: “I was proud to sponsor this legislation — reinforcing the supremacy of the U.S. Constitution and Florida law while ensuring taxpayer dollars are never used to support institutions tied to terrorist organizations.”

    Collins, via X: “Great to be with Governor Ron DeSantis today as he signed HB 1471 to protect the laws of Florida and the United States against radical ideologies like Sharia law. We have our own laws in Florida. We won’t accept foreign influence meant to erode our legal system and way of life.”

    Rahim: “This expanded and deeply-flawed framework can attack any organization that dares to dissent. As Floridians, together, we’ll watch how this unprecedented law is enforced, and whether it is used or abused.”

    What Happens Next
    Legal challenges are widely anticipated. DeSantis himself predicted at the signing, “They’ll sue us like they do on everything, and we’ll win on appeal,” Florida Voice News reported.

    • 1. It mentions no specific foreign law.
      2. To the best of my knowledge, Robert Spencer always uses the term sharia (Islamic law), not ‘sharia law’.

      • Hoping some day politicians and so-called reporters will stop using that ridiculous ‘sharia law’ nonsense.

  10. Seriously people, Islam is going to claim the First Amendment, freedom of religion. Racism.

    Paxton has to prove and it should not be very hard that sharia law is just that a law & it applies only to Muslims.

    Paxton also needs to bring every speech that CAIR and other Islamic groups have made chanting death to America and other comments of wiping out America. If he has all is ducks in a row, he will win this.

    Tribunals, Islam are just the Islamic legal group that wants to impose sharia, Paxton needs to remind people that the Constitution states its the only legal system in America. Sharia law is another legal system that has no place inside of America, Islam must leave.

  11. As a European believe me when l say “lf Texas falls the rest of the civilised world will fall”.

  12. Our constitution is not a suicide pact. Islam is incompatible with the West.
