“Probably Donna Chang.

Or a group made up of real Chinese, funded by the Chinese government.”

Didn’t think the Chinese could pronounce Flannery.

It's a mystery.

Based on the lawyers background, there's a good chance Flannery LLC is a cover for some DC establishment types who have inside information on the future of Travis AB.

This is in Nancy Peolsi's backyard.

I've always been rather fond of the word "flummoxed"... hence my original comment.

It has a nice sound and feel to it.

“You do know that each of the services has its own security, intel, and investigative organizations?”

It’s highly unlikely that such things as intel and security exist at government agencies. If you’re looking for qualities that exist at these agencies, try fat, stupid, drunk and horny.

B.S.

The U.S. Government can’t figure out who owns 55,000 acres? Surrounding an Air Force Base?

Then it comes out the Iraq owned some major holdings during desert storm II.

overly dramatic. Means bewildered and perplexed. I don’t agree with applying emotional adjectives for countries and organizations.

The officials didn’t find an answer yet, I seriously doubt they are experiencing bewilderment.

That's what makes the love of words and writing so much fun.

The word "flummoxed" doesn't have the same visceral meaning for me but I can understand where you are coming from.

Why is there an Islamic Village in the foothills near Fresno?
KFSN TV 30 Fresno, CA ^ | 11-07-01 | Kevin Quinn

.Why is there an Islamic Village in the foothills near Fresno? There’s an airstrip and neighbors complain of gunfire. Kevin Quinn takes you inside Baladullah, California.
Sorry, no transcript as of now. Video only. Worth the effort to view.

The video provides a look at this compound in the foothills above Fresno, CA. Pre 9-11, a Fresn County Sheriffs deputy was killed by a member of this peaceful Islamic community. The suspect (in the beginning trial phase still) broke into a empty nearby foothill home, when deputies arrived this guy was lying in the hallway floor with a rifle, and killed one deputy. This video is the first investigative reporting we have had on this Islamic community. The trail leads to FUQRA, a known terrorist group operating all over the world, and have several communities such as this one all over the USA.

Here is an excerpt from an article of the Sacramento Bee...

California links of terrorists probed:
Federal and state investigators try to unearth ‘sleeper’ agents.
By Sam Stanton and Andy Furillo
Bee Staff Writers
(Published Sept. 30, 2001)

The compound Beyond seeking out ties to bin Laden-linked terrorist networks, officials are keeping tabs on another Islamic group near Fresno because of the recent killing of a sheriff’s deputy in an area home, apparently stemming from a botched burglary.(this was no burglary according to all accounts)

There is no evidence that the Fresno group has been involved in any terrorist activities, officials say.

The group, according to a federal source, is part of Fuqra, an organization whose name means “poverty” in Arabic and which has had compounds in several U.S. areas.

Some Fuqra members in other areas have been implicated in past years in domestic terrorist attacks, and the State Department has labeled the group, known formally as Jamaat ul-Fuqra, as “an Islamic sect that seeks to purify Islam through violence.”

The group south of Fresno operates an 1,800-acre compound called the International Quranic Open University, which sits on the former site of the drug addiction recovery cult Synanon.

The compound, a series of mobile homes shaded by trees, also serves as a U-Haul rentals location. A resident there last week refused to talk to a reporter, referring inquiries to a Visalia attorney who did not respond to a message seeking information.

Authorities have been studying the compound since the Aug. 21 slaying of Fresno County Sheriff’s Deputy Erik Telen. Officials charged 20-year-old Ramadan Abdur-Rauf Abdullah with murder in the killing, apparently stemming from a botched burglary at a rural home.

James Oppliger, Fresno County’s chief deputy district attorney, said the suspect claimed he had been living at the compound seeking psychiatric treatment from the Quranic university.

Oppliger said he since has begun studying the group and its possible connections to other organizations.

(Zavia Books) is the bookstore for this Islamic compound. It is called Koranic Open University. Note the books being sold. One of them is prefaced by ( Sheik Mubarik Ali Shah Jilani [Gilani]) a known terrorist. The trail leads from Baladullah (actually Miramonte, CA) to Pakistan, where Sheik Gilani lives. He is the head of Fuqra.

The religious community known as Baladullah.
It was one of several rural enclaves established around the country by mostly African-American followers of a Pakistani cleric known as Sheik Mubarik Ali Gilani.”

Gateway Academy Superintendent Khadijah Ghafur

Yes, he shot and killed Fresno County Deputy Sheriff Erik Telen.
