Another Oklahoman Muslim Threatened To Behead Co-Workers

Slowly information is surfacing regarding 30-year-old Alton Nolen aka Jah'Keem Yisrael , the Muslim who beheaded that poor woman at Vaughan Foods in Oklahoma.

Apparently, Nolen converted to Islam during his time in the penitentiary in 2011, tried to convert co-workers at the food processing plant where he worked, was fired after he argued in favor of stoning of women, and then returned to the plant where he attacked several women until he was shot by the COO Mark Vaughan.

Walid Shoebat has some interesting info on Nolen, including the fact that he was initially with the Black Israelite cult.

More on Nolen on and his posts on Facebook on Daily Caller.

Now we hear about this, also out of Oklahoma. Jacob Murithi who threatened to behead a co-worker and was fired, was arrested the same day that Alton Jones was. He had told the co-worker that he "represented ISIS and that ISIS kills Christians."  He's in jail on terrorism charges.  At least they didn't categorize it as workplace violence.

You have to wonder if this has anything to do with, or was inspired by the thwarted terrorist plot in Australia to behead random people.

Federal Appeals Court Overturns Oklahoma State Ban On Sharia Law

In 2010, an amendment banning any Islamic (Shariah) or international law from being implemented in Oklahoma courts was approved by an overwhelming 70 percent of  voters. But, the ban was shot down by a federal appeals court in Denver on Tuesday because it violated Muneer Awad's First Amendment Rights. And can you guess what organization Awad is executive director of in Oklahoma?  Bingo. Council on Islamic-American Relations (CAIR).  Yes, poor Awad bemoaned the fact that his whole life would be affected (including his will upon his death) if the law took effect, and so he won his lawsuit. 

The Oklahoma amendment, called "Save Our State" was deemed unconstitutional because it discriminated against religions. It was actually blocked soon after its approval by dhimmi  U.S. District Judge Vicki Miles-LaGrange because she knew he would prevail. Isn't that telling. And, although the amendment called Save Our State was aimed at banning all religious laws, the backers made the mistake of using the term 'Islamic' as an example. 

"The courts shall not look to the legal precepts of other nations or cultures. Specifically, the courts shall not consider international law or Sharia law."

Because the amendment mentioned Sharia Law twice, the appeals court determined it was an attack on Muslims, so bye-bye ban. Another reason it was blocked was none of the backers were able to prove that Sharia Law (or any other international law) had been used in Oklahoma courts. Yet!

"When the law that voters wish to enact is likely unconstitutional, their interests do not outweigh Mr. Awad's in having his constitutional rights protected," the court said.

So, the so-called constitutional rights of one individual takes precedence over the will of the people, it seems. And I guess 'separation of church and state', part of that same First Amendment, means absolutely nothing.  Because we can't ruffle their feathers, right?!

This court decision, sadly, will set a terrible precedent. Down the line, it will pave the way for implementation of Sharia Law in our court systems.
