I have been saying, for awhile now, that Islamists, in that they advocate for the imposition of Sharia law around the world, are committing sedition. Sharia is the Islamic constitution (in fact, it is the constitution in Saudi Arabia), therefore, advocating for Sharia is advocating for the overthrow of the existing Constitution.
While, I believe this to be true, I recognize that few people would agree with me. However, I don't think people would be so inclined to disagree with the idea that Islam is a political force and not simply a religion. Ask any Imam, or Islamic academic and they will tell you straight out that, in Islam, there is no separation between religion and politics. Frank Hilliard, of Mesopotamia West, has a great idea:
One way to deal with Islam that hasn't been fully discussed is to reclassify it as a political organization. Since the major difference between Islam and all other religions is that it wants to establish its own laws, and since the establishment, administration and maintenance of laws is the sole purpose of government, it follows that what we have in Islam is a political project wrapped in the candy coating of a religious community.
Once we describe it for what it is, we can then require it to fund its activities in an open way, can more closely monitor its leaders and can tax is properly. Taking this a bit further, I think any close monitoring of any Islamic congregation would quickly find someone advocating sedition. Since this is a serious crime, we could then arrest, charge and convict these Imams of this crime. In other words, let's crack down on the source of terrorism, the heart of darkness, that is Islam.
