The blind sheik, convicted of orchestrating the deadly World Trade Center bombing 20 years ago, has benefited from a sophisticated social media messaging machine despite serving life in prison in a solitary confinement cell in North Carolina.
And federal authorities can’t do anything to stop Sheik Omar Abdel-Rahman because his family is running the show on YouTube, Twitter, Facebook and a website hosted in the United States – and there’s nothing illegal in the content of the sites’ messages.
…
Abdel-Rahman’s main website is hosted at SingleHop, in Chicago, Ill., according to dawhois.com, a website that registers servers and domains. Numerous phone calls made to SingleHop for comment were not returned.

Sheikh Dr. Omar Abdel-Rahman, aka ‘the Blind Sheikh,’ was arrested on July 1, 1993 in Brooklyn, New York and on October 1, 1995 was convicted of seditious conspiracy and solicitation to attack a military installation on Staten Island, and conspiracies to bomb New York landmarks. On January 17, 1996, he was sentenced to life in prison.
A federal jury convicted Sheikh Omar Abdel-Rahman of planning to wage a “war of urban terrorism” against the United States, including blowing up the United Nations building, the Holland and Lincoln tunnels, the main federal office building in Manhattan, and the George Washington Bridge.[1]
Wouldn’t be surprised if 0bama and /or Valerie Jarrett have an ownership position in that hosting company. Or are at least friends with both sides of the arrangement
Is it in braille?
It may be a good idea to allow such hosting even if there were legal grounds to go after it. Never know what a little snooping might turn up. There is a reason why we don’t go after the North Korean’s hanky panky in Macau.
The sheik himself is residing at the Federal Medical Center, Butner (FMC Butner), North Carolina. Another resident therein is none other than Bernie Madoff.
All things considered, you have to wonder how those two would do as cellmates.
