CNN Claims SHARIA LAW? Judge Questions Jake Tapper in CNN Defamation Case

A judge just gave the green light for CNN’s Jake Tapper to be put on the hot seat in a deposition over a defamation lawsuit.

Why?

Because the judge isn’t exactly buying Tapper’s version of events.

The case?

CNN apparently labeled a Navy vet, Zachary Young, as a criminal for helping evacuate victims during Biden’s chaotic Afghanistan exit.

Why was he called a criminal?

Because, get this, he’d be a criminal under Shariah law.

The American network tried to protect itself from losing $1 billion in this lawsuit.

But the judge is letting them know that Tapper might have to answer some tough questions.

What's the most ridiculous, desperate thing CNN could do to try to get out the $ 1 billion defamation suit against them?

I'm actually laughing that CNN had the balls to say because a guy got women out of Afghanistan post withdraw, it was against their Sharia Law so they shouldn't be sued that they libel and slandered him.

The Gateway Pundit reports:

A judge hearing a defamation lawsuit brought against CNN for mischaracterizing a company helping with the evacuation of victims when Joe Biden pulled America’s troops out of Afghanistan and gave the country to the Taliban is allowing network show host Jake Tapper to be grilled in a deposition.

This after the judge expressly doubted Tapper’s truthfulness.

WND previously reported when the declining network attempted to justify its description as criminal of Navy veteran Zachary Young, whose company worked to get people out of Afghanistan when Biden’s retreat – and abandonment of billions of dollars worth of American war machinery – came out of the White House.

It supported its description of Young as a criminal because he would be considered criminal under Shariah law – that set of codes imposed by Islam.

The rules are known for their extremism, such as a call for the amputation of a thief’s hands, for killing people for criticizing the Quran, for killing people who deny Muhammad was a prophet, for killing people who lead a Muslim away from Islam, for killing a non-Muslim man who marries a Muslim woman, for killing homosexuals (although sodomizing young boys is allowed), and for “taqiyya” or lying to non-Muslims.

A Revolver report had explained, “They’re actually legitimizing (and defending) Sharia Law, which routinely abuses women, sometimes to death, in an effort to try and win that billion-dollar lawsuit. In the process, they’re also branding the Navy Vet at the center of the defamation suit a ‘criminal’ for trying to save women’s lives.”

Now constitutional expert and George Washington University law professor Jonathan Turley notes that the fight is over CNN’s agenda to cast Young in a bad light through a report about “Afghans trying to get out of the country face a black market full of promises, demands of exorbitant fees, and no guarantee of safety or success.”

On the program, “The lead with Jake Tapper,” CNN’s Alex Marquardt claimed “desperate Afghans are being exploited,” naming Young.
