It's far worse than that. Coyote uses the John L Esposito outfit - Team - The Bridge Initiative | A Research Project on Islamophobia. - supporters of Wahhabi Islam, and Hamas and its fundraisers.
John L. Esposito: Apologist for Wahhabi Islam
Lucy....consider this statement very very carefully: ...a registry of all Muslims and an ID card....
Is history repeating itself here?
Breitbart is the rightwing Media Matters.

I don't care about your feelings on Brietbart, address who said what in the article and your deflection is duly noted
It's a scholarly article on Sharia - not advocating anything. Snopes talks about it: Khizr Khan Is a Muslim Brotherhood Agent? and there is a link in there to the actual article.
It's like someone writing a scholarly article on the history of Catholic law.

Your boy is dirty, you can apologize, deflect, scream "It's Brietbart" or whatever...but sorry this is too out there.
Also, don't go whining about Brietbart then try and pull Snopes on me.....that was stupid
Shall we ignore your the prior 4 or 5 deflections above then...including yours?
Otherwise - I've already addressed the article...
Show me where in the article he is advocating for Sharia and where he is praising this mullah for doing these horrible things.
Does this mean anyone who attempts to write a scholarly article on the history of religious law automatically becomes an advocate for it's application and an extremist?
Let me know when you have rational answers

Your childish use of "funny" as an insult betrays your ability to properly debate. When you grow the fuck up (along with your fellow leftist hags who do it) get back to me. Good day

If you don't like childish insults, I recommend you refrain from using them. I'm happy to debate without insults if you are.

Khan wrote a glowing review of a book compiled from a seminar held in Kuwait called “Human Rights In Islam” in which he singles out for praise the keynote address of fellow Pakistani Allah K. Brohi, a pro-jihad Islamic jurist who was one of the closest advisers to late Pakistani dictator Gen. Zia ul-Haq, the father of the Taliban movement.
Khan speaks admiringly of Brohi’s interpretation of human rights, even though it included the right to kill and mutilate those who violate Islamic laws and even the right of men to “beat” wives who act “unseemly.”
As Pakistani minister of law and religious affairs, Brohi helped create hundreds of jihadi incubators called madrassas and restored Sharia punishments, such as amputations for theft and demands that rape victims produce four male witnesses or face adultery charges. He also made insulting the Muslim prophet Muhammad a crime punishable by death. To speed the Islamization of Pakistan, he and Zia issued a law that required judges to consult mullahs on every judicial decision for Sharia compliance.
Khan, who says he immigrated to the U.S. in 1980 to escape Pakistan’s “military rule,” nonetheless spoke admiringly of Brohi in his review of his speech. He praised his remarks even though Brohi advocated for the enforcement of the medieval Sharia punishments, known as “hudood” (singular “hadd”), that were later adopted and carried out with brutal efficiency by the Taliban in neighboring Afghanistan.
“Divinely ordained punishments have to be inflicted,” Brohi asserted, “and there is very little option for the judge called upon to impose Hadd, if facts and circumstances are established that the Hadd in question has been transgressed, to refuse to impose the punishment.”
Of course, such cruel and unusual Sharia punishments, ranging from stonings and floggings to beheadings, would be a flagrant violation of the Eighth Amendment of the United States Constitution....

In his book review, Khan takes no issue with Brohi’s shocking interpretation of human rights. In fact, he claims Brohi “successfully” explains them and argues his points “convincingly.” (The review, which lists Khan as “director” of an Islamic center in Houston, was published in the Texas International Law Journal.)
“The keynote speech of Dr. A.K. Brohi, former Pakistani minister of legal and religious affairs, is a hallmark in this book,” Khan writes. “It successfully explains the Islamic concepts of ‘right’ and ‘just’ in comparison to their Christian and Judaic counterparts.”
Adds Khan: “Brohi argues convincingly for the establishment of a moral value system before guarantees can be given for any kind of rights. To illustrate the point he notes, ‘There is no such thing as human right in the abstract.’”
In context, Khan concurs that human rights can only be guaranteed through the establishment of Sharia’s moral and legal code....

Khan provides his own advocacy for Sharia law in a separate academic paper titled “Juristic Classification of Islamic Law,” which he also wrote in 1983, while studying in Saudi Arabia.
“The invariable and basic rules of Islamic law are only those prescribed in the Shari’ah,” Khan writes. “All other juridical works… must always be subordinated to the Shari’ah.”
He explains that Sharia is derived from the Quran and Sunnah, and that the Quran “is the absolute authority from which springs the very conception of legality and every legal obligation.”...

Khizr Khan Believes Sharia Trumps the Constitution
Did you actually read the book review or are you basing your opinion on the interpretation of others?
And that indicates he believes Sharia trumps the Constitution how? He's citing scholars and writers usually "gratefully acknowedge" the work of those who are they are citing. Do you know anything about academic writing?

Breitbart is a home for the bewildered.
And this is an issue...why? It's a scholarly article on Sharia from which you are cherry picking out of context bits in an attempt to change the meaning.
