Shocking Interviews: Muslims in America Want Sharia Law [+video]

They don’t call it “Little Mogadishu” for nothing. The Cedar Riverside section of Minneapolis is home to the University of Minnesota, supplying college graduates who fight for jobs in a tough market. But this one neighborhood is also supplying something else: Dozens of jihadis — drawn from the area’s large concentration of Somali refugees — who leave Cedar Riverside and travel abroad to fight for terrorist groups.

Just as shocking, though, are the attitudes of some who remain in the North Star State. This was revealed recently by documentarian Ari Horowitz and a film crew from the David Horowitz Freedom Center, who took to the Cedar Riverside streets and asked some important questions. And they got some telling answers — ones that, distressingly, polls show reflect common sentiments among Muslims in America.

WND.com provides some more background, writing that some of the Minnesota Muslim jihadis “have joined Somalia’s notorious al-Shabab, which slaughtered 147 Christians at a university in Kenya last month [April], while others have opted for ISIS in Syria. Their goal is the same — to join their brothers in the fight to establish a Shariah-compliant utopia known as a caliphate.”

And it appears that many of those staying behind are behind these brothers all the way. Every respondent but one in the Horowitz video said he’d prefer to live under sharia law than American law.

The interviewees were striking in their honesty. There was no playing of the bigotry card, with many of them readily acknowledging that being Muslim in the United States was “easy” and that persecution and prejudice weren’t problems. But they also proudly proclaimed their own biases: Sharia should be preeminent, criticizing Mohammed is a crime, and using violence against those who slander him is legitimate.
