Dear AIG and Jim Crain:
You have made a grievous error in judgment. I implore you and your colleagues to recognize the threat of Islam and Islamic "Sharia" finance. Please accept the responsibility to protect and defend this country, our Constitution and the freedoms it guarantees. Sharia in any form cannot be a friend to the United States, its people, its culture or our democratic future.

Islam is not just a religion; it is a political-judicial-cultural ideology as defined by the quran, hadith and sira as implemented under sharia law. Islam replaces or subjugates anything non-Islamic. Wherever Islam grows, a state within a state develops and the existing government and unbelieving (kafir) culture is rejected. Again, an Islamic minority faction grows until it can conquer, by political or violent means, the established government.

The Muslim Brotherhood has declared their 'work in America is a kind of grand Jihad in eliminating and destroying the Western civilization from within and "sabotaging" its miserable house by their hands and the hands of the believers so that it is eliminated and God's [Allah's] religion is made victorious over all other religions.' Sharia finance will only support the Muslim Brotherhood and its objectives.

This modern Islamic insurrection begins with a demand for deferential treatment of Islam, including insistence on religious accommodations, judicial separateness, FINANCIAL appeasement and general cultural and educational non-integration. In addition, imagined affronts to Islam are claimed and redress demanded.

Islam is supremacist in nature, discriminatory in practice, restricts freedom of thought and action and violates universal human rights. Muslim-Muslim relations are completely separate from Muslim-kafir relations, where deceit is sanctioned. Islam is incompatible with our values and sensibilities of freedom and secularism.

No matter the temperament of individual Muslims, the Islamic community as a whole, the 'ummah' drives the process of Islamization in every country where Islam thrives. Violence, legal intimidation, sedition and subversive behavior are common and strategic. Islam and it tenants are the antithesis of our country's history and free thinking traditions and its growth will suffocate future intellectual, cultural and artistic growth.

You must reconsider your position. No amount of business or money is worth dismantling your country, THIS country, the sole place on earth where liberty is given the honor it deserves.
