An Egyptian-born author says the United States is asking for trouble if it does not take steps to drastically restrict immigration from terrorist-harboring Islamic countries. Nonie Darwish has written a book called Now They Call Me Infidel: Why I Renounced Jihad for America, Israel, and the War on Terror. The former Muslim is deeply concerned that the U.S. will experience the problems of Europe and other areas of the world that have allowed unfettered Islamic immigration. So Darwish believes the U.S. should immediately stop issuing religious visas to Muslims wanting to immigrate here. "We have to ask [would-be immigrants] the question," she asserts, "do you want to live under shariah law?" And those who answer yes should never be granted a visa, the author insists, "because Sharia law is totally incompatible with Western democracy. It is cruel and unusual punishment, it is humiliation for women, and if a person wants to live under Sharia law, they might as well stay in the Muslim world." The United States should use a questionnaire to screen those desiring entry into the U.S. from Islamic nations, Darwish suggests, and should "only issue visas to Muslim doctors, engineers, or others whose fields of expertise would benefit the United States." And definitely, she adds, the U.S. should not allow in any religious extremists who indicate that they want to turn America into the same kind of place as those oppressive Islamist-controlled societies from whence they came.
