Dem Congressman: State Department Should Hire Islamic Clerics To Teach Everyone How Peaceful Islam Is
Congressman Brad Sherman (D., Calif.) stressed the need to find Islamic–rather than secular or humanitarian–justifications against the brutality of the Islamic State to appeal to Muslims worldwide, particularly in the West, who are susceptible to recruitment via social media.
Sherman said this would involve employing established Muslim scholars who can justify opposition to IS with passages from the Quran and the Hadith–the collections of teachings, sayings, and actions of the Prophet Muhammad.
“One must be able to turn to the Quran, to turn to the Hadith and show how ISIS is making a mockery of a great world religion,” Sherman said. “You cannot appeal to Islamic jurists unless you can cite Hadith, unless you can cite Quran, unless you can do all the things you would do in working before any other jurists anywhere in the world.
Wild Thing’s comment…….
He is nuts and if he really did learn about Islam he would read the verses that instruct it’s followers to kill, behead etc. those that are not followers.
READ OBLaden’s Jihad Decree to western crusaders from 1998 – KILL all Americans and allies – military and civilian…. in the name of God!
What a jackass. Stupid fool has no knowledge of history and what Muslims have done throughout the ages.
He’s another unicorn fart dreamer.
