In ancient times watchman would mount the city walls in times of stress to survey the scene outside the fortifications. He was situated on a spot from which he could monitor the approaches to the town. If a threat appeared, he would sound a warning and the town would shut its gates and prepare for battle.

In America Islam is rising. An alarming new poll shows that large majorities in the Muslim world want shariah to become the law of the land,”
End Of Days News
Television host Sean Hannity tackled radical Islam on Wednesday night, commenting about a new Pew Research poll that explores Muslims’ views on a plethora of issues.
The study, which showed widespread support for shariah law, also delved into some more contentious issues like stoning adulterers, apostasy charges and other related themes. The findings led Hannity to conclude that “Islam is rising” and that the new research is “alarming.
“Islam is rising. An alarming new poll shows that large majorities in the Muslim world want shariah to become the law of the land,” the host said at the opening of the show, going on to note his past prediction that “it’s only a matter of time that the shariah law hits the shores of America.”
Joining Hannity in debating the poll and its contents were radio host Bill Cunningham and Muslim activist Mike Ghouse. While Cunningham agreed with Hannity’s assessment of the Pew findings, Ghouse attempted to frame the discussion by noting that many Muslims don’t know about systems outside of the shariah realm. He seemed to argue that this limited worldview led to favorable ratings for Islamic law.
Creeping Shariah in America!

The American Hijab Design Contest, aiming to present the hijab – or Muslim headscarf – as an accessory “as American as blue jeans” wrapped up over the weekend in Chicago.
The contest challenged designers “to create an American style of hijab.” Its website describedsome of the motivations behind the competition:
The way we generally see hijab worn in America these days is an Arab scarf style on top of American style outfits.However, in the Victorian period, when it was generally fashionable for women to wear hats, Muslim women would adapt the style by simply adding a separate scarf around their neck, so as to be fully covered. They did not switch the hat out for an Arab-style scarf.We’re looking for our nation’s most creative designers to create a truly American hijab style that speaks to today’s American fashion.
To qualify as a hijab under contest rules, all entries had to cover “everything but the hands, face, and feet in a non-formfitting and non-sheer manner.”
The winning design was a camel-colored, quilted knee-length tunic, worn with tights, high boots and instead of the classic hijab, a turtleneck and a knit hat.
