Does Islamic Law rule over Westerners?

Question

Daniel Pipes says, the basic message is that because of Muslims' violent reaction, Islamic law rules over Westerners too "because you no longer have the privilege to say what you will about Islam, the Prophet, and the Qur'an."

Verse 7
Perhaps Allah may guide those who denied Him and convert enmity into affection.
7- Perhaps Allah may take the matters of fact and circumstance them after His own manner and convert ill-will, between you and those with whom you were at enmity, into affection, He is Qadirun (Omnipotent), and Allah is Ghafurun (Forgiving), and Rahimun (Merciful).

Verse 8
Asmaa, sister of the prophet's wife, was once visited by her mother who was still a Pagan. Asmaa refused to welcome her nor accept the present she brought her.
When Asmaa related the incident to the Prophet, he ordered her to welcome her mother to her house and to accept her present.
8- Allah did not interdict your considerateness in intercourse with those who did not wage war against your religion nor did they drive you out and oust you of your homes. To the contrary, He expects you to be courteous to them and to treat them with tenderness and equity and to help the needy among them and those who are weak; Allah likes those who are courteous and crowned with equity.

Verse 9
9- But He prohibits you from making a friendly intimacy with those who waged war against your religion and drove you out and ousted you of your homes, and supported others in effecting your ejection. and he who makes with them a friendly intimacy then. such persons are wrong-doers.
Testing emigrating women for their beliefs:
According to the terms of the Hudaibyah peace treaty signed by the Prophet at Madina and the Quraishites at Macca, any Meccan man or woman Muslim or non Muslim, who fled to Madina seeking the Prophet's protection was to be sent back. The following verse prohibits sending back Muslim women whose Faith has been tested and proved. As of that date a Muslim, man or woman is not permitted to unite in marriage with a Pagan, and if a woman has adopted Islam and her husband has not, then her marriage to him becomes unlawful.

Answer 2

Thankfully Islamic law doesn't rule over yahoo and this is one of the last bastions of free speech in the world.
People can be arrested in the UK for saying strong things against Islam under a disgraceful piece of legislation called the Incitement to Religious Hatred Act. Thankfully yahoo servers are located in the US so Brits can come on here and enjoy the freedoms America has to offer that have been taken away from us in our own country.

Answer 3

a) Technically, islamic law (shari'a) applies to Westerners only when they are in countries where it has been made into the law of the land (Saudi Arabia, parts of Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iran, Kenya, Nigeria are some of the countries where this does apply). In countries with separation of church and state, or where the dominant religion is not islam, its application is a matter of voluntary compliance, and by definition this matters only to muslims.

b) Problem is that the west is taking on a dhimmi mentality, where the local culture is regarded as tolerated and subservient to islam, so that the PC police and other bodies that regulate public speech repress any public manifestation of criticism or hostility towards islam.
