Libyan Islamists Rally To Demands Sharia Law…
Is there even a shred of doubt they will get it? The NTC Chairman Mustafa Abdul Jalil has already stated multiple times the country will be governed by Islamic law.
TRIPOLI – Hundreds of Libyan Islamists rallied on Friday to demand that Muslim sharia law inspire legislation in what organizers called a response to the emergence of secular political parties after the fall of Muammar Gaddafi’s dictatorship last year.
Assembled by Islamist political and religious groups, mostly young and bearded men holding up copies of the Koran demonstrated in squares in the capital Tripoli, the eastern city of Benghazi and in Sabha in the southern desert.
In Tripoli’s Algeria Square, Islamists burned copies of the Green Book, Gaddafi’s eccentric handbook on politics, economics and everyday life, to underline that the Koran should be the country’s main source of legislation.
By contrast, a group of secularists who have staged a sit-in in the square for more than a month chanted: “We want a civil state.”
The Islamist demonstrators encompassed members of the conservative Muslim Brotherhood and harder-line Salafis, who both back strict versions of Islam, and relative moderates who prefer a civil state simply inspired by sharia.
The protests offered a glimpse into Libya’s political future in which Islamist and secularist parties are expected to vie for seats in a national assembly scheduled to be elected in June to draft a constitution for the North African country.
Experts believe the Muslim Brotherhood is the most organized political force and could emerge as the leading political player in Libya after Gaddafi, who harshly suppressed Islamists during his 42 years in autocratic power.
The chairman of Libya’s ruling National Transitional Council (NTC), Mustafa Abdul Jalil, promised in October to uphold Islamic law. “We as a Muslim nation have taken Islamic sharia as the source of legislation, therefore any law that contradicts the principles of Islam is legally nullified,” he said.

Mind if I borrow that? There’s someone I’d like to show it to…
We as a Constitutional Republic have taken The U.S. Constitution as the source of legislation, therefore any law that contradicts the principles of The U.S. constitution is legally nullified.
Thanks.
The rebels the Administration backed and had no problem with taking kinetic action to support?

A goat in every bedroom will cinch the election. Or in islamo moslim speak, erection.
Thanks in part to that miserble little worm JIMMY CARTER we ended up with AYATOLA HOMENY and what we have now
Let them have their sharia, but no more aid money and no more acceptance of refugees. Let the Saudis support them – instead of using their petrodollars to corrupt Western judges, politicians and academics with their bribery to allow “creeping sharia” and mosque building.
Change is Obama is more of a wussy dumbass than Jimma Carter.
Annialation the only solution against sharia law
