The Young Muslims are in hiding. They are hiding the location of their August 2nd youth camp, and the public has a right to know why.
The Young Muslims (YM) was founded well over a decade ago, as a subsidiary of the Islamic Circle of North America (ICNA), an organization that was created specifically to emulate the violent Muslim Brotherhood of Pakistan, Jamaat-e-Islami. Through ICNA, YM holds events that feature as speakers some of the most radical individuals in the Islamic community. These events include youth camps, which, prior to the attacks on 9/11, were referred to as jihad camps.
The latest YM camp, themed Deen and Dunya: Finding the Balance, will be held tomorrow, August 2nd through August 6th. The organization has worked hard to keep the location of the destination under wraps. On the YM website, people are explicitly told not to discuss the matter.
Originally, the event was to be held in Villanova, Pennsylvania, at the 23-acre Foundation for Islamic Education (FIE), where many YM events are held throughout the year. [This includes one last April featuring UK Imam Sheik Riyadh ul-Haq, who, just two months later, was banned from entering Canada, because his views could incite terror and hatred.] However, the camp was to be a five-day affair a violation of local zoning regulations and after years of infractions perpetrated by FIE, the residents complained and got the Township of Lower Merion, where FIE is located, to threaten an injunction against the group.
YM had previously held its August 2004 camp at FIE, the theme of which was A Few Good Men. Controversy erupted over it, when, shortly before the camp was to begin, one of the invited speakers, Mazen Mokhtar, had his house raided and his computers confiscated by the FBI. Mokhtar, currently the Youth Director for the New Jersey chapter of the Muslim American Society (MAS), prior to 9/11, created a mirror (replica) website of a site that raised funds and recruited terror fighters for Al-Qaeda and the Taliban. The site was also used as a portal to the official website of Hamas, a group that Mokhtar has called heroic. He has also said he supports suicide bombings.
Mokhtar was an invitee to lecture at this years camp, as well. The confirmed list of speakers are as follows:
The speakers are not the only problem with the YM camp. There is also a problem with the campers. Numerous pictures from previous camps depict the children fighting each other, as their fellow camp-mates stand around watching. It is not apparent whether or not there is any supervision while this is occurring, but given who their guest speakers are, that probably doesnt make much of a difference.
One reason why the members of Young Muslims dont want the location of tomorrows camp divulged is because there may be more impediments zoning or otherwise with the new locale, which could cause a cancellation. A further explanation could be because they dont want what is being said by their guest speakers known to the public. Yet another reason could be far far worse. But we wont know, because theyre not telling.
Law enforcement needs to find out -- now.
Pennsylvania ping
Secret, eh?
Got something to hide?
Post 30 removes the hide.
But it's a religion of peace, so we have nothing to worry about. Those Ostriches who say that the Muslims that we have been letting come to America are of the peaceful variety should realize that if this were the truth, the market for such a youth camp would not exist in this country. However it does, and they are not.
In Florida, the Kissemmee property shares space with a 'christian group'. I've closed my search browsers so now I forgot the name :(
>>>Cover Me Beautiful?? LOL.
You can't make this stuff up!
But seriously, it is probably a lunch to discuss the latest fashion show.
Some great graphics on this thread:

They're probably up here in the Northern Pennsylvania woods.
I hope the State Police are keeping an eye out for them.
