CONSERVATIVE ROUND UP 01/28/2015

Conservative Round Up (A service of Punching Bag Media) The articles below are taken from some of the best Conservative sites on the internet. This is the best way to keep abreast of current issues. and get a summary of the important news of the day. Tea Party Islamic Tribunal Confirmed in Texas; Attorney Claims 'It's Voluntary' January 27, 2015 7:21 pm | Share on Facebook Nope, that's not a typo, nor is it satirical or hyperbole. There is literally a tribunal in Texas that will enforce Sharia law in their community. They claim that the tribunal will only try and sentence those who 'volunteer to comply with Sharia.' This begs the question that who in the world would choose to be tried in court and possibly punished if they didn't have to? Ten to one, this tribunal will coerce, intimidate, or threaten community members into accepting whatever punishment they deep appropriate for showing your ankles in public. This is also a huge women's rights issue. Strict Muslims have a long track record of oppressing the females among them. In many Muslim countries, women will be arrested if they don't wear Hijaab and must have the permission of her nearest male relative to travel, leave the house, or even to have certain surgeries. A woman who has lived in this atmosphere will have no choice if her father or husband orders her to appear before the tribunal. Additionally, a couple cannot be divorced unless the divorce is granted by the tribunal, and a woman cannot request a divorce from the tribunal herself. The four men on the Sharia Tribunal refer to themselves as judges. When questioned about what they would do if the Sharia law they are enforcing conflicts with Texas laws. He admitted, 'We follow Sharia law. They refused to say what would happen to someone who disobeyed their verdict. Their Texan city may become the first no-go zone in America. If going there carries a risk of being put on trial before a Muslim tribunal for wearing a short dress, I'll steer clear. Right Side News What Would It Be Like If The Muslim Were A Dhimmi In America Today? 27 January 2015 by Bill Warner | Share on Facebook A 'Dhimmi' is a non-Muslim person living in a Muslim-controlled territory. The term came about when their prophet Mohammed made a treaty with a group of Christians his soldiers had conquered. In exchange for absolute surrender and the acceptance of a long list of restrictive rules, Mohammed would not kill all of them. Many Christians, Jews, and people of other faiths are still living under Dhimmi laws in the Middle East. American Muslims are constantly pushing for acceptance of their culture and immunity from certain laws. When you read this list, you'll see while Christians are being forced to (literally) kneel before Muslims and hand over half their salaries, there's no reason for an American Muslim to sue because she saw a sign advertising a sandwich that has bacon on it. Conservative 50 Plus Chuck Hagel: Gitmo Detainees Are There for a Reason JANUARY 27, 2015 | Share on Facebook Soon to be former Defense Secretary Hagel wants to close Gitmo on his way out. This is an idiotic move for a number of reasons, but at least Hagel is willing to acknowledge that it's not going to be a simple thing. There are 127 terrorist detainees in Guantanamo Bay- well, 122 after Obama just let five of them go. As Hagel said of the detainees there, 'These are the most difficult cases.' These are dangerous men. Our president and his staff are more afraid of the PC police than of the actual terrorists. The Hayride Why You Must Watch FX's 'The Americans' January 28, 2015 by John Binder | Share on Facebook The show features two undercover KGB spies living in America and posing as a suburban couple with kids. So it's a good show to start with just for the entertainment value. It's also a good allegory for our current struggle to defend our way of life against the threat of Radical Islam. The couple featured in the show blends into American society frighteningly well. In three seasons, the two are never caught. Almost no one suspects a thing. Yet, these two have never questioned their communist way of life. They continuously bash the American way and show utter disdain for the freedoms we have. The show perfectly illustrates how a person with something to believe in will go to the ends of the earth to get it- and how easily we might not see these people when they're right under our noses. WND.com Secret planting of up to 75,000 Syrian Muslims begins in U.S. 14 hours ago by LEO HOHMANN | Share on Facebook In the next year alone, Obama will have 10,000 Muslim refugees resettled in our homeland. The State Department refused to reveal where, exactly, these refugees would be sent, but the information leaked out anyways. The refugees will be placed in Ohio, an important swing state in national elections, as well as North Carolina, Washington, and Louisville Kentucky. Obama has created a task force on the 'New Americans,' and the cost of resettling them in America will be over a billion dollars, funded by taxpayers. By doing this, Obama is ignoring some very dire warnings from those who have worked in the refugee camps these people are coming from. 'I'm well aware that ISIS has its 'infiltrators within the Sunni refugees,' said one nun who has been volunteering at a refugee camp in Lebanon. Who exactly are we letting into our country?
