A national drive against citing "foreign" laws in U.S. courts - one that critics say is a veiled attack on Islamic Shariah law - has reached the state with the nation's largest concentration of Muslims.

In his weekly column in the "Washington Times" published shortly after [William Reinsch] sent his letter, CSP's president, Frank Gaffney, denounced Reinsch as "Terror's lobbyist," charging that the NFTC "favors doing business with America's enemies and runs interference for those determined to do so.
