The danger is not Sharia. The danger is the political machinery that turns ordinary Muslim Americans into objects of suspicion, targets of state power, and props in a culture war they did not choose. If there is anything Americans should fear, it is not Islamic law, but the weaponisation of fear.

Good article.

What the article does not cover is a suspicion of mine. I think he is laying the ground to confiscate property from Muslims , some deported individuals, protestors against Israel, and any other people they can target.
