Stop Islamization of... Alaska

From Eric Dondero:

Ayn Rand Individualist Pamela Geller, a friend of this website, will be testifying this week in Juneau, in favor of the legislation to ban Sharia Law. She was invited to speak before the House Judiciary Committee by two State Reps.

Representatives Carl Gatto of Palmer, and Bob Lynn of south Anchorage, are the two co-sponsors in the House of a bill to ban Sharia Law in Alaska.

From Atlas Shrugs:

HB 88 aims at preventing "a court or other enforcement authority" from enforcing foreign law in Alaska. The bill will preempt violations of an individual's constitutional rights resulting from the application of foreign law.

But at least some Muslim special interest groups are not happy about the decision to invite Geller to speak.

From the AP (via CTPost):

The Council on American-Islamic Relations is calling for a speaker invited to testify to Alaska House Judiciary Committee to be pulled from Wednesday's lineup.

Council spokesman Ibrahim Hooper says Pamela Geller, head of advocacy group Stop Islamization of America, should not be allowed to testify on House Bill 88 because of what he calls her anti-Muslim rhetoric.
