Fox Network Reveals Truth about Muslim "Sleeper Cells" in U.S.

LOS ANGELES (ZNBS News Release) -- The Fox Network has blown the cover off of Muslim "sleeper cells" operating in America and Europe. Based on details obtained from terrorists held at Camp X-Ray, the methods of these Arab and Muslim sleeper cells have been exposed.

Fox has translated these details to one of its television shows, the acclaimed and award-winning "24" series.

In this series, a Muslim family has been establishing itself as a normal suburban family, a technique described in debriefings of Camp X-Ray terrorist detainees. The sleeper cell technique was developed in the Soviet Union and emulated by their Arab client states.

Sleeper cell members are trained to sabotage infrastructure, to eliminate those who may learn details of their plans, and to escape the country or kill themselves when their missions are over.

Poisoning of those who learn about them is standard practice. In fact, just such a poisoning, of a young white girl, was portrayed in a recent episode, indicating that Fox is using the latest information obtained from the Guantanamo Bay prisoners as part of its script development.

Calpernia, does this report support this thread?

If not, then it can also serve as a reminder of what is going on.

tied to bin Laden's terrorist network

WASHINGTON – Pentagon officials have
confirmed human smuggling rings in Latin
America are attempting to sneak al-Qaida
operatives into the U.S., information first
reported in Joseph Farah's G2 Bulletin more than
a year ago.

In a Defense Department briefing Friday about
National Guardsman Ryan Anderson, suspected
of trying to give al-Qaida information about U.S.
capabilities and weaponry, reporters were also
told to expect Defense Secretary Donald
Rumsfeld to provide details on two other
subjects: Guantanamo Bay prisoners freed only
to rejoin al-Qaida and Taliban cells in
Afghanistan and al-Qaida's Latin America
connection.

No further announcements were forthcoming
from the Pentagon, prompting some sources to
wonder whether the administration was
conflicted over this news – given President
Bush's political problems with his illegal-alien
amnesty program.

Before the U.S.-led coalition attacked Iraq last
year, the U.S. State Department offered
congressional testimony that both al-Qaida and
the Shiite terrorist group Hezbollah were taking
firm hold in "America's backyard."

Mark F. Wong, the State Department's acting
coordinator for counterterrorism, told the House
International Relations Committee about the
threat posed by both groups in Latin America.

Yet, then the matter seems to have been
dropped – perhaps for diplomatic reasons,
perhaps for political reasons.

But last November, G2 Bulletin reported
authorities in Silvio Pettirosi International Airport
in Asuncion, the Paraguayan capital, reported
the arrival of a growing number of visitors
carrying European passports, but undoubtedly
appearing to be more Middle Eastern than
anything else.

Some of these "Europeans" could not even speak
the language of their so-called mother land.

A police officer in touch with a Middle Eastern
embassy said he had conducted a review trailing
back on the moves of a certain Belgian, with a
distinct Vallon name. This Belgian's trip began in
Cairo on Egypt Air 203 en route to Milan. From
there he continued to London on board a BA 209
flight, which continued to Miami where he
boarded American flight 995 to Asuncion.

Details of the suspicious Vallon were passed on
to the Paraguayan authorities and then to a
number of western embassies and
representatives of intelligence agencies. This
case, described to G2B by a western diplomat, is
a rare example. Due to the devious intricacy of
such a trip the Paraguayan authorities cannot be
absolutely sure how many of these "Europeans,"
speaking fluent Arabic, but just basic French,
Spanish or English, had entered the country
during the last few weeks. However, there was
very little doubt most of these visitors went on to
find their way to the triple border region where
Argentina, Brazil and Paraguay meet. This
region, often described as a lawless area, is
nicknamed by some intelligence station agents
as "The Muslim Triangle meeting zone."

Intelligence experts have been warning since the
late 1990s they had noticed a tendency among
Islamic terrorists to operate from Paraguay, a
landlocked country in the heart of South
America, with a territory slightly smaller than
California, and with geographic extremes perfect
for hiding illegal activities. Information
surrounding such activities arrived in the U.S.
before 9/11 but failed to sound any alarms.
Today dealing with Islamic terrorism in Latin
America is still not considered to be of high
importance and often even politically incorrect.

G2 Bulletin reported last fall the terrorists using
Argentina are organized in active cells around
the country with safe houses in neighboring
Paraguay. An Argentinean document seen by
G2B describes part of the drug-smuggling trail,
as well as that of we apons and people. These
elaborate trails run through a web of border
crossings pointing also to the complex
cooperation between various "smuggling
experts." These belong to jihadi organizations
such as al-Qaida, joining forces with local drug
lords, developing and oiling their smuggling
mechanism all the way to Mexico aiming
ultimately to hit the U.S.

The Argentinean intelligence service
assessment, privy among others, to European
and Middle Eastern agencies, has reached a
significant and grave conclusion, according to G2
Bulletin. It claims since 9/11 and the partial
success in the war against terrorism, mainly in
the Middle East, Afghanistan and Central Asia,
the jihadi pendulum is tilting more and more
toward South America. The reason terrorist cells
in Paraguay, whether active or dormant, can
continue to grow and flourish, is because of
widespread corruption in South America.

Immigration is easy. There is a long tradition of
harboring criminals. Even Nazi war criminals
were welcomed for years.

The lawlessness and disorder in Paraguay,
enabled operatives of such terrorist groups as
al-Qaida, Hezbollah, Islamic Jihad and Hamas
to feel safe, even in the heart of Asuncion. These
organizations, and probably more, turned
Paraguay into a logistical base, as one local
journalist told G2 Bulletin: "It's easy. At this
stage our country is not engulfed in a civil war or
guerrilla campaign and, therefore, security
forces are more prone to financial kickbacks."

At this stage, G2 Bulletin sources say, the
growing danger is that of militant Islam
penetrating Mexico, a country with an increasing
Muslim community, including Muslim converts.
Some of them have ties to the Mexican
community and to illegal immigrants' smugglers
operating in American states bordering Mexico,
especially those with connections in the greater
Los Angeles area and other major cities.

Anti-terrorism experts say extremist cells tied to
Hezbollah, Islamic Jihad and al-Qaida network
are operating in Argentina, Ecuador, Honduras,
Mexico, Nicaragua, Paraguay and Uruguay.
Although cooperation between al-Qaida and
Hezbollah has been known for some time, the
two groups have formed a much closer
relationship since al-Qaida was evicted from its
base in Afghanistan, according to G2 Bulletin.

Representatives of the two groups recently met
in Lebanon, Paraguay and an unidentified African
country.

Both al-Qaida and Hezbollah were active in the
common border area of Colombia, Peru and
Ecuador, according to an earlier statement of
Deputy Secretary of State Richard Armitage in
hearings before the Foreign Appropriations
Subcommittee of the House Appropriations
Committee, cited in a report from Radio Free
Europe/Radio Liberty.

Further to the south in Latin America, Hezbollah
and the terrorist Islamic Resistance Movement
(Hamas) are operating in the tri-border region of
Paraguay, Argentina and Brazil. The suspected
activities of these groups include counterfeiting
U.S. currency and drug smuggling, with the area
in which they function described as a "haven for
Islamic extremists" by the administrator of the
Drug Enforcement Administration, Asa
Hutchinson, in testimony before the House
International Relations Committee.

Egyptian intelligence experts active in combating
Muslim militancy in Egypt and aware of the role
of Egyptian militants in the ranks of al-Qaida
and the Taliban, told G2 Bulletin last year that
Islamic terrorists shifted their interest from
training pilots in the U.S. to schools in South
America, where they can study and train
practically without any security agencies on their
heels.

In addition, another source al-Qaida also found
Latin America to be more hospitable as an
environment to build laboratories to manufacture
non-conventional weapon systems, primarily
biological agents, and for testing their
effectiveness.

More recently, al-Qaida has become deeply
involved in cocaine and heroine trafficking, arms
and uranium smuggling, counterfeiting CDs and
DVDs and money-laundering activities in the
tri-border region of Argentina, Brazil and
Paraguay. The tri-border region is known as the
heart of Islamic activity in Latin America.

Of growing concern to some U.S. officials is the
way the terrorists south of the border might use
lax immigration standards to slip into the U.S.

Some 6 million people of Muslim descent live in
Latin America and there are reports that many
indigenous people are converting to Islam.

The terrorists even get some official support in
Latin America, according to some sources. As
WorldNetDaily reported, a Venezuelan military
defector claims President Hugo Chavez
developed ties to terrorist groups such as
al-Qaida – even providing it with $1 million in
cash after Sept. 11, 2001.

Air Force Maj. Juan Diaz Castillo, who was
Chavez's pilot, told WorldNetDaily through an
interpreter that "the American people should
awaken and be aware of the enemy they have
just three hours' flight from the United States."

Diaz said he was part of an operation in which
Chavez gave $1 million to al-Qaida for
relocation costs, shortly after the Sept. 11, 2001,
terrorist attacks on the United States.
