The Growing Threat of Sharia Supremacism in the United States

By OBBM Network Editorial Staff

Derived from an episode of Securing America.

Americans are facing a growing threat from a radical ideology that seeks to undermine the country’s values and way of life. Sharia supremacism, a doctrine that demands the imposition of Islamic law on all aspects of society, is spreading its influence across the United States, often unnoticed by the general public. This sinister force is working to infiltrate and subvert American institutions, from schools and universities to government agencies and community organizations.

The Nature of the Threat

According to Frank Gaffney, host of Securing America, Sharia supremacism is a medieval way of thinking that is incompatible with American values. Gaffney recently discussed the issue with Sam Faddis, a former CIA operative with extensive experience in the Middle East. Faddis emphasized that the goal of Sharia supremacism is not coexistence, but domination and control. As Faddis noted, ‘This is not about coexistence, it’s not about you do your thing, I do my thing. This is about what Islam has always been about, which is domination and control and subjugation.’

The Turkish Connection

The threat of Sharia supremacism is not limited to the United States. In Turkey, President Recep Tayyip Erdogan is working to establish a caliphate, with himself as the caliph. Erdogan’s rhetoric is alarming, with talk of marching on Jerusalem and fighting crusaders. Faddis warned that Erdogan’s ambitions are not just limited to the Middle East, but also pose a threat to the United States and its allies. As Gaffney noted, ‘Erdogan is a sultan, and his rhetoric is that of a man who is preparing for war.’

The Role of Saudi Arabia and Qatar

Saudi Arabia and Qatar are also playing a significant role in the spread of Sharia supremacism. These countries have been pumping massive amounts of money into the effort to spread their particular version of Wahhabi ideology, which is a hardcore jihadist ideology. Faddis noted that this ideology was not always prevalent in the region, but was created and spread through the efforts of these countries. As Gaffney pointed out, ‘The Saudis and Qataris are creating institutions and infrastructure inside our country that are building out this Sharia supremacist capacity.’

Conclusion

The threat of Sharia supremacism is real and growing. Americans need to be aware of the danger it poses and take action to protect their country and its values. As Faddis warned, ‘This is not a problem that is going to go away on its own. We need to take action to stop it.’ The United States must take a strong stance against Sharia supremacism and work to prevent its spread. The future of the country and its values depend on it.
