any plans to enforce sharia law in u.k. are completely ridiculous. >> it's totally nonstarter. it's nothing but a public stunt. most muslims, are law-abiding productive citizens in this country do not wish to have sharia law here. >> reporter: christian leaders say, one of the towns affected by the proposal, are deeply disturbed by the plan. david told cbn news. what was it that frighten people in the country? it's a very small group. they try and get as much publicity as they can and it worries people that somehow we will subject to sharia law. terry quinn is on a to relaunch it. >> many muslims in the area are welcoming. so, the extremist group don't represent what the muslims really believe. >> reporter: he believes these proposals don't represent the wishes of muslim population there. >> clearly they are -- they do not speak for the vast majority of muslims. they don't speak for the vast majority of people. >> reporter: christians are fighting the proposals saying islamic law is compatible with britain's christian heritage and value. last month, cox, introduced a bill in th

how could that coexist with sharia? >> guest: people don't know this is going on under the radar screen. it's great you mentioned that. it starts out in marital disputes. the divorce court type thing. i want to divorce my wife, my husband, god forbid beats me. that's how it started in great britain. you haven't imam or a tribal elder and one of the pillars of the muslim neighborhood in great britain or sweden or france, basically acting as judge and jury, literally handing down rulings for married couples in the west among muslim couples in the west, acting outside of the law of this country. and it happens very slowly but when you have linen called useful idiots in a clinical class, and i think of the archbishop a few years ago who said we are going to have to accept sharia law in muslim communities. the top christian authority in great britain saying this, giving sharia and okay to act outside of british common law. we have people like that imposition of authority, it don't hastens the downfall. the american people ar

because i do not want sharia law in our courts. courts. >> sean: look, you in the public eye now. jon stewart recently took a pretty big shot at you. he was asked about it on chris wallace's show. you finally got a chance to see that. >> right, i did. >> sean: you had some harsh words for him. this is the same guy who has a rally to restore sanity and invites cat stevens who supported a fatwa on salman rushdie. that's the definition of sandy count me in the insane category. >> right. >> sean: he had harsh words mocking, i think if any conservative had done anything similar to an african-american, i think they would be fired. >> first of all, i don't believe jon stewart is a racist. he's a comedian. and he admits that. what jon stewart does have a problem with, is that herman cain is an american black conservative. you see, i left the democrat plantation a long time ago. whenever people get a chance to try to whip me back on to the plantation, and i won't go, th

but, he suggested that if the mosque went up, there would be an imposition of sharia law, and, it ishat you will hear more and more of, in the republican primary season, from a couple of candidates. bill: well, he was also asked about constitutional rights. freedom of religion and he said our constitution guarantees the separation of church and state and we heard a little of that a moment ago. and, then he went onto argue, islam combines church and state. did he defend that statement well? >> no, well, he didn't make much of a case for it. look, there is no doubt that radical islam remains a threat to the united states. a number of terrorists have attacked the united states in the name of radical islam, and, there is no doubt that some terrorists have tried to use mosques for support and for bases and there is no doubt as we speak the fbi has some mosques under surveillance, right now. on the other hand, if... to make this case, cain needs to show some real connection that a proposed mosque has some connection to some illegal or nefarious activity, and he didn't say that at all. bill

months ago the largest group in attendance ultraconservative muslims calling for the introduction of sharia law journalist and blogger austin michael is in cairo says the arab spring has produced a strong and divisive islamist movement they unity and it was a sign the liberal islam is forces were going to come together to continue their push for sort of basic democratic rights but down in the square i was just down a little before i came here this is a huge number of. muslim brotherhood members it's deadly the most just lovely. time that i've been here and they there's many chants of. islamic identity this is the islamic nature of egypt which is cause some friction with. the secular forces who are normally does it you know forces dominate they're the ones who run the running it sit in there for a month since the clashes that happened at the end of june but today. the islamists . but a similar show of unrest is taking place in neighboring israel thousands of young protesters pitched tent camps across the country cities calling for social justice and voicing discontent at government policies

sharia law is what they are trying to infuse. >> wait a minute.re you saying that we should ban all muslims from worshipping . >> no, i am not saying that. what i am saying that american laws and american courts. that's what the people are saying and that's what people are saying. >> having a mosque is not. >> chris, i also happen to know it is not just a religious mosque. there are other things going on base upon talking to the people closest to the problem. it is not just a mosque for religious purposes. this is what the people are objecting to. >> they held a couple of rallies in 2009 and last year to support the palestinian including hamas in gaza. this is going to a county judge who said the people, there may be a question about the open meetings, but the people who brought suit haven't been hurt and they have a right to build the mosque. this is not ground zero in new york . not hallowed ground. don't americans have a right of whatever religion under the constitution which you speak so much about to free speech and freedom to worship. >> to

what the constitution should look like and of course it has an islamic aim pray in the same way the sharia should be the source of legislation which is exactly what the constitution of the last thirty years has said so no difference in bed to. sort of keep it at least the way it is if the elections the brotherhood where to acquire a position of more influence i don't think you're going to get a majority but opposition a furtive percent something around the bad number we've alliances i think there's no question of they're going to be pushing for more islamic values nothing to do stand but some of the fear mongers here in the west think nothing like taliban style afghanistan but no question we're going to be pushing for more sharia for more extremely conservative values and it's troubling for christians for women and so on and so for one of the things we haven't really talked about on this program that's where you'll go ahead i was going to write about foreign policy but if you want to talk about domestic politics but i want just yeah i would like to say something that's why it's so importan

sharia law. judge may have ruled but this case isn't over with yet. i believe it will go all the way to the supreme court. it is not hallow ground. it is hallow ground for the people in murfreesboro. >> chris: couldn't any community say we don't want a mosque in our community? >> they could say that. chris, let's go back to the fundamental issue that the people are saying that they are objecting to. they are objecting to the fact that islam is both a religion and a set of laws. sharia law. that is the difference between any one of our other traditional religions where it is just about religious purposes. the people in the community know best and i happen to side with the people in the community. >> chris: you are saying any community if they want to ban a mosque. >> yes, they have the right to do that. that is not discriminating based upon religion, against their particular religion. there is an aspect of them building that mosque that doesn't get talked about and the people in the community know

laws here in the us and mind the fact that he's never seen a case of sharia law being dragged as year but gave his g.o.p. buddies love to fear monger and scare white folks of islamophobia because that seems to be a winning ticket with their voters every time and also wins herman cain so it's tools i work. now we often talk about the bloated defense budget on this show the massive amounts of wasted money being thrown to projects with no sense of logic contracts the run over budget over time end up taking decades to complete and costing you the taxpayer millions if not billions of dollars so today let's get into a few specifics the jail t.v. it's a vehicle it's currently being billed by partnership of all your usual defense contractors to replace the hummer and the purchase price for each vehicle with our without armor already quitman just the chassis is three hundred thousand dollars minimum now once you add some armor than that price takes it right up to six hundred thousand dollars per vehicle on all the initial purchase price for the entire fleet is about sixty billion dollars and t

tmuslim brotherhood and other parties will write the constitution that will islamize egypt and impose sharia. >> there is a majority of people today that would like the freedom and democracy. maybe not precisely the way that we have. real dangerous if we rush into this thing and give -- the muslim brotherhood could take over. >> to become a government similar to the islamic public of iran says congressman frank wolf. egypt's coptic christians say that would not be good for them. it would not be good for united states, for the western civilization. >> i think the coptic christians would be in a difficult spot. much more difficult than if the muslim brotherhood than with hosni mubarak. >> in the first few days of hosni mubarak, they faysed more than 60 attacks. >> christians are waiting for a thorough investigation and prosecution of those responsible for the bombing last new year's day, 23 people killed, 97 injuried. congressman wolf says it is time the united states become an advocate for them. >> there should be pressure on the administration to stand out with the persecuted and coptic chri

. -- to destroy israel and expand sharia truth the west. it is not like we are trying to read tea leaves. why would the administration think is a group they could do business with? >> i have no idea. let's get more sophisticated. there are elements within the muslim brotherhood beginning to be fracturing on the edges. this may have only way we could express ourselves before the fall of mubarak. all of this stuff about jihad and violence, maybe there's a different course we ought to go. we've now undermined those people. let alone the small "d" democrats the people who want to have a functioning democracy that is not dominated by sharia law and tries to live in peace and security wits neighbors. we've given them the back of our hand by this public gesture. which again is inexplicable. why do it? why did it now, when there is no upside to the united states and a lot of downside not only for us but our allies inside egypt. people who want to see a modern egypt that looks to the west not to mecca and medina. >> let's talk about our enemies many

. >> islam is both a religion and a set of laws, sharia law. the difference between any one of our other traditional religions whenwhere it's just about religious purposes. >> jon: yes, yes, yes. [laughter] it's very different. it's very different. i read about the strangeness of their combination of religion and laws in my people's holy book, the torah, which translated into english literally means "the law." i don't think the predators are even going to bother with this one. [laughter] that's adorable. of course, there's one candidate who seems to be gaining strength by the day, michele bachmann, but can her $4.2 million fund-raising help fed off questions about herrelltive lack of experience and knowledge, and this thing. >> former aides say the congresswoman is prone to "debilitating migraines." >> will michele bachmann's migraines hurt her bid? >> should this be considered a campaign issue? >> jon:, got to say, of all my issues with michele bachmann's brain... [laughter] migraine's not even top 20. but who are we kidding? we know who the c

, savnt sharia chatter that is going around, and 14 states have taken legislative action to prevent any kind of mixing betweensharia concepts and american legal system. because that's the fear. >> rose: how many muslims are in america. >> there's huge debates over how big the population is and depending on your political stance or your religious stance you can say it is as low as 2 million. and then you've got people projecting 8 or 9 million. you know --. >> rose: in a pochlation 6300 million. >> right. >> so for me there is no definitive answer. i would best guess estimate base and figures i've seen are ybe 4 to 5 million. but what which would say is less contentious is what the demographic makeup of the population is, in terms of their ethnic ogin, in terms of their immigrant status, educational attainment. that you know regardless of the size w what we do know is what do these people look like. artheythe idea that they are mainly arabs is mpletely false, you know, they are mainly southeast asian. the idea that well they are lesser educated like some of the other muslim populations t

they have not talked about sharia or the women's roles in society. they have talked about the economy, investment. this is all very down the middle politics. >> did you sense any nostalgia for the stability of the past, repressive though it was? >> i'm afraid not. i did not see any of that. people seemed very happy to be rid of hosni mubarak and the old regime. i did not see anyone who was looking back and longing. there is frustration that the wheels are not moving faster. >> where you left feeling optimistic for the future? >> i have been covering the middle east for a long time, it is hard to feel optimistic. i'm not as pessimistic as i was when i went in. i got the sense that the different political groups are coalescing and coming to a single national plan or identity. i will hold my judgment, just as the egyptians are. >> did you get a sense of which groups are benefiting more -- most from the change? >> the brotherhood again. the islamists are benefiting the most. some of them are extreme muslims and they are benefiting to the extent that they

now, sharia law is unconstitutional. it violates the separation of church and state and separation of mosque and state. secondly, it violates clauses that protect equal rights. under sharia law, women do not have equal rights. if a muslim uple choose to operate their marriage according to islamic law, that is a voluntary contract they enter into, and if they have a right to do that. i defend to the death of their right to do that, just as i defend to the death my right as a baptist to have my marriage operated under the christian guidelines that i believe th bible teaches for a husband-wife relationship. but i would fight to the death to try to keep that baptist view from being made it illegal you and try to impose it on everyone else, and the same thing -- being made the illegal of you and try to impose it on everyone else, and the same thing is true with sharia law. don't throw out the baby with the bath, mr. cain. they have a right to have places of worship close by. they with -- close by tgo where they live. if they

law which is islamic form of government, many people would say sharia law.t not understand what that would mean if a taliban type group was in power. but there is a strong, strong sense that a religious form of government among many people would provide more justice. >> woodruff: you do write to some extent, of course, about the role the united states has played in pakistan. how do you see that connected to what happen in pakistan in the near term? >> it's such a complicated relationship, of course going back to the cold war when you had the americans and pakistanis on the same side supporting the after began insurgents against the brezhnev regime it is a very old relationship, an old and strong strategic partnership. for many, many pakistanis have come here, have gotten-- have settled here. long time relationship but what's happened in lean years, particularly again since 9/11 is it's become a kind of estrangement. there's been a lot of tension add mood the relationship. and because you have militant groups islamic mill grant-- militant groups inside near t
