The Organization of the Islamic Conference (OIC) will be meeting in Chicago later this month, sponsoring a program promoting values antithetical to the U.S. Constitution.
Founded in 1969, the OIC is now a 56-state collective which includes every Islamic nation on Earth. Currently headed by Turkey’s Ekmeleddin Ihsanoglu, the OIC thus represents the entire Muslim umma (or global community of individual Muslims) and is the largest single voting bloc in the United Nations.
There is no religious liberty in Islam, for Islam survives as religious totalitarianism that refuses rejection.
[Article 24 of the Cairo Declaration] All the rights and freedoms stipulated in this Declaration are subject to the Islamic Sharia. … [Article 25] The Islamic Sharia is the only source of reference for the explanation or clarification to any of the articles of this Declaration.
These statements capture the indelible influence of the Islamic religious law Sharia: the Cairo Declaration claiming supremacy based on “divine revelation,†which renders sacred and permanent the notion of inequality between the community of Allah and the infidels.
Enshrined in the First Amendment of the U.S. Bill of Rights is the guarantee that laws may not be made that interfere with religion “or prohibiting the free exercise thereof.†Absent the right to freedom of thought, or conscience, other rights such as the right to freedom of speech are rendered meaningless.
A vote for Islam is a vote against Religious Freedom.
Allowing the growth of Islam is allowing the loss of Religious Freedom.
Once Islam gains enough numbers, enough power, it will oppress and suppress any other religion.
