Think Progress again displays it’s alliance with Islamists. They now attack Sen. Inhofe for filibustering against a judicial nominee that supports Allah in prayers but not Jesus.

Inhofe Will Filibuster Judicial Nominee For Ruling Against Sectarian Prayers In Indiana Legislature

Inhofe does not appear to have explained his decision to filibuster in front of his colleagues on the floor of the Senate. But in statements that he entered into the Congressional Record, Inhofe cited a 2005 ruling in Hinrichs v. Bosman in which Hamilton found that the Indiana House of Representatives may open proceedings with “non-sectarian prayers” only. Inhofe called it “insane” that the ruling would allow payers to invoke the name of “Allah” but not “Jesus”:

INHOFE: Further, ruling on a postjudgment motion, Hamilton stated that invoking the name of “Allah” would not advance a particular religion or disparage another. So, praying to Allah would be perfectly acceptable. […]

I find this line of reasoning to be insane. Who in this body would not identify the name of “Allah” with the religion of Islam any less than they would identify the name of Jesus with Christianity?

Think Progress then uses Islamic propaganda that Allah just refers to God in general.

Hamilton found that “sectarian content of the substantial majority of official prayers took the prayers outside the safe harbor the Supreme Court recognized for inclusive, non-sectarian legislative prayers in Marsh v. Chambers.” As Hamilton explained in a post-judgment ruling, “‘Allah’ is used for ‘God’ in Arabic” and as such should be permitted:

Nice try Think progress but one problem. Allah means The god, not God. Also Allah isn’t the same God of the Jews and Christians. It is the Arabian Moon God worshiped by Islam. So Allah is a sectarian name as Muslims even when praying in English say Allah, not God. It is a formal name of an entity.
Think progress is Administered by Faiz Shakir who is a supporter of the Muslim Brotherhood, Hamas, Hizballah, Al-Qaeda in Iraq and Iran. Of course Think Progress supports Islamo-Fascism, it is one of the voice pieces of the Leftist-Islamic Alliance.
