Mohamed Sheikh Abdirahman Kariye is the imam of the largest mosque in Portland, Oregon. It is good that all this has come to light, but is anyone paying any attention to the other Muslims who heard Kariye preach week after week for years? How many other jihadis are in the Portland area? What is being taught at Masjed As-Saber now?
“Imam told Portland Seven that combat against U.S. was ‘legitimate jihad,’ court papers say,” by Bryan Denson, The Oregonian, September 30, 2015 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):
The imam of Portland’s biggest mosque collected money from worshippers after 9/11, sending the Portland Seven to Afghanistan to fight against coalition forces, the U.S. Department of Justice alleges in its fight to deport the imam.
Arguments between lawyers for Mohamed Sheikh Abdirahman Kariye and the Justice Department reveal new details of the government’s legal maneuvers to strip the imam of his citizenship.
As religious leader of Masjed As-Saber, Kariye told several members of the plot that “Muslims should fight with fellow Muslim brothers of Afghanistan against Americans” and that this combat was a “righteous fight … legitimate jihad,” Justice Department lawyers wrote in an exhibit filed earlier this month in the immigration case.
“Kariye was present when members of the Portland Seven left to go wage jihad, and he wished them good luck on their journey,” according to an exhibit filed earlier this month in the government’s lawsuit to strip Kariye of his citizenship.
The imam was never charged with any crime related to the Portland Seven. While people who prayed in his mosque were sentenced to prison for their roles in the failed plot, Kariye’s only U.S. criminal conviction came in 2003, when he got probation for understating his income to qualify for state healthcare benefits and using a Social Security card with a false birth date.
Kariye’s lawyers, Nicole Nelson and Philip James Smith, have filed papers seeking to dismiss the government’s lawsuit on jurisdictional grounds. They argue that federal law requires the U.S. attorney to file such a complaint, not the team from the Justice Department’s Office of Immigration Litigation in Washington, D.C.
Government lawyers Benjamin G. Mizer, William C. Peachey and Christopher W. Dempsey argued in a response filed earlier this month that the law allows them to represent the U.S. in filing the complaint to strip Kariye of his naturalization.
U.S. District Judge Anna J. Brown is expected to rule on the dueling motions, but it’s unclear when.
Brown presides in another civil complaint involving Kariye: He is one of several plaintiffs in a lawsuit that accuses the FBI and its Terrorist Screening Center of violating the constitutional rights of those placed on the U.S. no-fly list, including him….
Kariye is playing the victim? What a surprise.
Portland, like Seattle, is a leftwing socialist/communist hellhole...and the satanic imam is probably celebrated for his attack on America.
Look for old Presbyterian, Methodist or Catholic Churches that have closed. Many are being sold off and quietly converted to mosques.
I guess that's the plan, huh?
Jorge Busho and your "iSlime is a religion of piece", is this what you had in mind? Is this what the jebster has in mind?
.17 HMR at 500 meters?
Well that’s disgusting news.
How many of these animals are in the country? Really! i hope it is still at 3 million, which is still a staggering number.
Funny how we dont harm them and they have constitutional protection, but they dont seem to give a #$@#$ about all the Christians being killed in countries they came from.
Real iffy for a .17 Remington.
Just looked up .17 HMR. 100 yards is normal. My bad.
I was thinking of varmint rounds like .22-250, .220 Swift, .223 Remington, .224 Weatherby.
And we ARE talking hunting varmints, if you get my drift.
;^)
Glad to o know we are taking care of all his health coverage needs.
Keep paying your taxes suckers!!!!Parasites like this asshole need the help to kill us.
I share your disgust, I wouldn’t want to waste the shot.
500 meters-.308/7.62
When can we start rounding up these seditious people and begin air dropping them over their home countries?
.308/7.62mm worked fine for our Marine sharpshooters in Fallujah. Their feats belong in history books.
Can it be suppressed? As in, “Allahu Ak-SPLAAATT!!!”
Oregon ping
The world as we see it today is the result of foreign policy being run by girls, plain and simple. We cannot have a liberal woman as POTUS, we see what she and they have done, complete and utter disaster.
Get the hell out of my country you subhuman towelhead left-hand-a$$wipe savage.
Let him become a victim of his own declared war on American citizens.
“In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the person’s becoming in every facet an American, and nothing but an American…There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn’t an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag… We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language… and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people.”
Theodore Roosevelt 1907
Why the heck is this guy not dead? He has declared war against the US. Roosevelt would have had him shot.
