Sharia in America

It is wise to be educated about where the American taxpayer's dollars are being directed.  It is important for our military families to understand what is sharia and why is this relevant to financial matters. 

There are good people in this country and in our military, all who are free to practice their religion.  I've met few muslims who have been nice, hardworking US citizens.  I've met people of other religions, some good and some not good.  All have coexisted well since this nation was founded.  Regardless of the political viewpoint presented, it is important to understand finances in America, how it affects the taxpayer, and the hope of improving our financial markets as well as paying off the national debt in due time.  For those seeking to hinder growth in America, it will be a surprise.  History reinforces the mindset of the American citizen and a culture that thrives in ways least expected. 

Below are some articles to reference.  What's important is to blend financial matters with current laws so that justice and preservation of government continues to prosper this country. 

American Family Matters reviews how AIG defies US taxpayers.

The AIG-Sharia connection reviews legal aspects on Culture.

Glenn Beck produced a video about Americans funding terrorism. 

Fox News reviews a lawsuit pertaining to this matter as well as the Washington Post.

Even with the Islamic Banking Industry representing $442 billion in 2008, big named financial institutions such as Citicorp, HSBC and Deutsche Bank seek to gain market share by developing Islamic centers catered to this niche area.  The New York Times wrote about how Islamic banking business has grown as a result of oil wealth.  The practice of sharia when it comes to financial matters is intriguing because the approach is similar to venture capitalists.  I like this American captitalistic spirit when it comes to financial matters. 

While there is frowning upon AIG, there is grave concern for our nation.  Setting aside religion and this war we are in whether we want to be or not, the American taxpayer should not be undermined and should not be conned into certain activities that just are not right from a financial perspective.
