Iman Siraj Wahhaj, terrorist defender and US Caliphate proponent
Siraj Wahhaj was one of nine Islamic leaders who met with Mayor Bloomberg and Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly over fears of a backlash against local Muslims after the Fort Hood massacre."

Later that year [1995], Wahhaj appeared as a defense witness in the trial of blind sheik Omar Abdel-Rahman, who was convicted of trying to blow up the Lincoln Tunnel and the United Nations.

"If we were aware of his full background," an aide said, "it would have been done differently."
Wahhaj heads the Masjid al Taqwa mosque in Bedford-Stuyvesant, and presides over fellow African-American converts to Islam.
"If the mayor had any discomfort he would not have invited me," Wahhaj said after the meeting. "Of course, he knew who I was. The mayor is very smart."
NYPD spokesman Paul Browne said Kelly had not previously met Wahhaj.
"It was a good, frank conversation between the mayor and the police commissioner and all the other participants," Wahhaj said.
Wahhaj was last in the news last month when a jury threw out his $5 million lawsuit against Curtis Sliwa for claiming the mosque had run guns to Canada.
Wahhaj was an “unindicted co-conspirator” in the 1993 World Trade Center bombing. He has defended the convicted WTC bomb plotters, called the FBI and CIA the “real terrorists,” and said he hopes all Americans eventually become Muslim.
Wahhaj’s profile from Discover the Networks: In a 1992 address to an audience of Muslims in New Jersey, Wahhaj expressed his desire to see Muslims seize control of the United States and replace its constitutional government with an Islamic caliphate. “If we were united and strong,” Wahhaj said, “we’d elect our own emir [leader] and give allegiance to him…. [T]ake my word, if 6-8 million Muslims unite in America, the country will come to us.”
Listen to this Siraj Wahhaj speech where he states Islam commands jihad of the true soldiers of Allah (SoA)…

By the way:
"...In June 1991, Siraj Wahaj, a black convert to Islam and the recipient of some of the American Muslim community's highest honors, had the privilege of becoming the first Muslim to deliver the daily prayer in the U.S. House of Representatives. On that occasion he recited from the Qur'an and appealed to the Almighty to guide American leaders "and grant them righteousness and wisdom."

Thank You for all of your hard work in exposing the threat we face from domestic islamist terrorists.
I hope what you’ve done has opened up at least a few more eyes as to just how dangerous these so-called ‘peaceful’ people really are.
