Its ultimate objective, however, is political: Destroy America from within and establish an Islamic State under Sharia Law. The Thomas More Law Center The Thomas More Law Center (TMLC) has spent over a decade fighting the Stealth Jihad waged against America. Below are just some of our cases: nByron Union School District, CA In 2002, TMLC sued the Byron Union School District on behalf of Christian parents who objected to their 12 year old child being exposed to three weeks of intensive Islamic indoctrination. This was the “Islam Simulation” course that every 7th grader in Byron had to take. Here are some of the astonishing facts: • In the introduction of the 113-page workbook distributed, students were told, “From the beginning you and your classmates will become Muslims.” • Children were required to take Islamic names, wear Muslim clothes, and memorize verses from the Koran and parts of Islamic prayers. • Students were required to repeat the phrase “Allah is the one true god and Muhammad is his prophet.” • And the list goes on . . . – Leading the Fight Against the Internal Threat of Radical Islam. nTMLC’s Federal Lawsuit Against Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) In April 2012, TMLC filed a federal lawsuit against CAIR and Allegan, MI police and School officials. Acting on a letter from CAIR, these officials shut down a public event at the city’s High School that exposed the threat of Sharia Law. The police pretext for shutting down the event was concern for public safety. The lawsuit claims violations of Constitutional rights to Free Speech and Assembly, and the contract. nTMLC and attorney David Yerushalmi defend Pamela Geller and Robert Spencer of AFDI American Freedom Defense Initiative, et al v. Suburban Mobility Authority for Regional Transportation (SMART) (Michigan) TMLC filed a federal lawsuit in May 2010 over the refusal of a Detroit-area transportation authority to display an anti-Jihad advertisement on its buses. The ad stated, “Fatwa on your head? Is your family or community threatening you? Leaving Islam? Got questions? Get Answers!” The “Leaving Islam” ad was sponsored by the American Freedom Defense Initiative (AFDI), founded by Pamela Geller and Robert Spencer. The lawsuit alleges violations of Free Speech and the Equal Protection clauses of the United States Constitution. AFDI v. New York Metropolitan Transit Authority - 2010 (New York) TMLC filed a lawsuit against the New York Metropolitan Transit Authority (MTA) for refusing to run advertisements on the side of city buses that protested the proposed Ground Zero Mosque. The Law Center alleges that this refusal violates First Amendment rights. AFDI v. New York Metropolitan Transit Authority - 2011 (New York) In September 2011, TMLC filed a federal lawsuit on behalf of American Freedom Defense Initiative (AFDI) co-founders, Pamela Geller and Robert Spencer. The lawsuit claimed the New York Metropolitan Transit Authority (MTA) violated plaintiff ’s freedom of speech. nTMLC Lawsuit Challenging the Shariah-compliant AIG Bailout In 2008, TMLC filed a federal lawsuit against the Department of Treasury and the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve challenging a portion of the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 that appropriated $40 billion in taxpayer money to fund the federal government’s majority ownership interest in AIG. The lawsuit claims the government, through its ownership of AIG, engages in Sharia-based Islamic religious activities. nTMLC Lawsuit Challenging Military Ban on Anti-terrorist Decals TMLC filed a federal lawsuit on behalf of Jesse Nieto, a former Marine and a civilian employee at Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune, North Carolina. Mr. Nieto’s son, Marc, and 16 of his shipmates were killed by Islamic terrorists when they bombed the U.S.S. Cole in 2000. Base authorities ordered Jesse to remove several anti-terrorist decals from his vehicle because they deemed them “offensive.” The decals contained messages such as: “Remember the USS Cole, 12 Oct 2000,” “No Quarter Islamic Terrorist,” and “We Died, They Rejoiced.” nCaptain Paul Fields v. City of Tulsa – (Oklahoma) In March 2011 TMLC announced it joined Tulsa, Oklahoma attorney Scott Wood to defend Captain Fields’ constitutional right not to become a propaganda prop for the local mosque. Police Captain Paul Fields refused to order his officers to attend an Islamic propaganda event staged by a local mosque with ties to the Muslim Brotherhood. As a result, Fields, a 16-year police veteran, has been stripped of his command and is now the subject of an internal investigation. nCouncil on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) v. Gaubatz, Center for Security Policy (CSP) – (Washington, D.C.) nFighting Imposition of Sharia Law in Dearborn, MI Dearborn, Michigan has gained a national reputation for its intimidation of Christian evangelists during the city’s annual Arab International Festival. That’s because Dearborn has one of the largest populations of Muslims in America. • Four Christian Missionaries Arrested TMLC defended four Christian missionaries arrested at the annual Arab Festival by Dearborn Police in June 2010, as one of them was peacefully discussing his Christian faith with a group of Muslim youth. All four were thrown in jail and charged with the crime of Breach of the Peace. And after a week-long jury trial, all four were found not guilty of Breach of the Peace. Following their criminal trial, TMLC filed a federal lawsuit on behalf of the missionaries against the City of Dearborn for violation of their Constitutional rights of Free Speech and Free Exercise of Religion. • Pastor Terry Jones In April 2012, TMLC filed a lawsuit in the Federal District Court against the City of Dearborn, and its police chief over the city’s tactic aimed at stopping Pastor Terry Jones from speaking out against Sharia law in front of the city’s mosque. The city demanded Pastor Jones sign a ‘Hold Harmless’ Agreement before they would permit him to speak. TMLC obtained a Temporary Restraining Order from the court that prevented the city from banning Pastor Jones’s speech. TMLC is defending David Gaubatz and the Center for Security Policy (CSP). Defendants were sued by CAIR for conducting an undercover documentary intended to expose the CAIR’s improper actions. The result of the investigation culminated in Gaubatz publishing a book entitled Muslim Mafia: Inside the Secret Underworld that’s Conspiring to Islamize America. nIslamic Society v. Kaufman – (Texas) Islamic organizations use lawsuits as a form of “legal jihad” to silence public discussion of Islamic terrorist threats. In one such case, seven Dallas-area Islamic organizations filed a defamation lawsuit against internet journalist Joe Kaufman. TMLC acted as lead counsel for Kaufman in the case. In January 2010, the Texas Supreme Court denied a petition for review of a Second District Court of Appeals opinion which dismissed the defamation lawsuit. • Pastor George Saieg Threatened With Arrest TMLC filed a federal lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of Dearborn’s actions in threatening Pastor Saieg with arrest if he passed out religious material on public sidewalks during the annual festival. In May 2011, the appellate court ruled that Pastor Saieg clearly has a free speech right to distribute religious literature on Dearborn’s public sidewalks and evangelize Muslims during the annual Arab Festival.
