telling those who may very well be a danger to society that they have a right to take up arms.

To be fair and accurate, they do have standing declarations of war against all mankind. They should be treated as such!

CAIR... still trying to achieve relevance with the terrorist varsity.

From https://pjmedia.com/blog/fbi-docs-alleged-terrorist-training-compound-discovered-in-rural-texas dated February 18, 2014

The Clarion Project has unearthed Federal Bureau of Investigations documents detailing a 22-site network of terrorist training villages sprawled across the United States. According to the documents, the FBI has been concerned about these facilities for about 12 years, but cannot act against them because the U.S. State Department has not yet declared that their umbrella group, MOA/Jamaat ul-Fuqra, as a Foreign Terrorist Organization...

Let’s not get on our high horse and paint, with a broad brush, all members of a peaceful religion just because of the violent actions of a few...hundred...million.

Hey, I'd let him go shooting with me anytime, but let's see I already have a brass catcher. I wonder, what could I have him catch?

Following the Migrant Money Trail

People-smuggling trade depends on hawala transfers largely with no paper trail and often outside the law; new attention on terror financing

ISTANBUL—Behind the reinforced door of an unmarked office in this teeming immigrant neighborhood, a man who goes by the name of Hawez Zaman moves money the same way his predecessors in the Middle Ages did, in an off-the-books transfer system critical to today’s spiraling migrant crisis in Europe.

The centuries-old system known as hawala enables users to transfer money from one point to another entirely on the basis of trust—largely without a paper trail and often outside the law.

It is the dominant way migrants flooding into Europe pay for their journeys, used for 90% of the transactions in a people-smuggling trade valued at around $2.5 billion a year in Europe, according to European security officials and researchers. It is used for a further $390 billion a year migrants send back home as part of an informal but widely accepted financial system used across the developing world.

The money flows are also drawing renewed attention among terrorist finance investigators, who since the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks have tried to monitor hawala systems. They are concerned that some of the same hawala systems flourishing from the business of moving migrants could also be tapped by would-be attackers as a source of financing.

“Given what we’ve seen so far, we have very strong suspicions terrorists receive money via hawala,” said Calogero Ferrara, a Palermo-based prosecutor heading a large pan-European people-smuggling investigation. “After the Paris attacks, we have intensified investigations on this front.”
