Islam is the Ultimate Sleeper Cell

We don’t know whether Dzhokar Tsarneav and Tamerlan Tsarneav were aligned with any Muslim terrorist organization, but there is no reason that they had to be.

Most recent Muslim terrorist plots were carried out by “lone wolves”, individuals or small groups, who received their Islamist indoctrination and explosives training through the Islamic internet of Jihadist social media.

It may turn out that the Tsarneavs attended a terrorist training camp at some point in the past. But it may be just as likely that they never did. Terrorist training camps still exist, but they are becoming relics when it comes to the new type of pop up terrorism favored by Jihadists abroad.

The ideal Muslim terrorist has never attended a training camp or met with a terrorist chieftain. He has never even traveled to a suspect country. His indoctrination comes from Jihadist videos of Islamic sermons and battle scenes from the front lines of Islamic terror. His bomb making knowledge comes from Jihadist training materials scattered around social media which tell him to make bombs and how to use them to the most devastating effect.

Sleeper? Every believer in Islam is potentially a sleeper, ready to undergo what the experts call “radicalization”. But radicalization is largely a misnomer. The proper term is religiosity.

As a Muslim becomes more religious, his thoughts turn to Jihad, whether supporting it directly or indirectly. The religiosity need not be overt. The terrorist can be outwardly secular, but inwardly religious. He doesn’t have to grow a beard or leave Korans everywhere. Many don’t. The essence of Jihad is that it allows a Muslim to live a secular life so long as he dedicates himself to the fight against non-Muslims.

I know, it frustrates me as well. I like Beck, but he can come off as a drama queen at times.

I don’t know that “Islam is the ultimate sleeper cell”. I know a bunch of Americans that, someday, might just decide that “shoot, shovel and shutup” applies to jihadi’s as well as endangered species. Now THAT’S a sleeper cell.

The United States Constitution and the Koran are mutually exclusive.

Ditto, the United States Constitution vs the Native Americans' negation of the concept of private property resulted in a civizational collision course.

Beck wouldn’t say. He’s giving the investigation the weekend to come forth with this info before he releases it. Ties to Saudis and attempts to get certain people out of the USA. That’s all I know.
