The Feb. 20 arrest of an alleged leader of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ), operating what the FBI calls a Tampa-based terrorist cell under cover as a professor at the University of South Florida (USF), has exposed one suspected operation. In doing so it has turned media focus on political groups that had been working in Washington with the accused, Sami Al-Arian, and set White House officials pointing fingers at one another about how the alleged terrorist managed to be included in the administration's controversial Muslim-outreach program.

That outreach effort, with its roots in the George W. Bush 2000 presidential campaign, has provoked controversy among the United States' growing Muslim and Arab-American communities, as well as among security-minded supporters of the president. Critics allege favoritism toward a small but vocal cadre of groups they say support terrorism. Mainstream Muslim and Arab-American organizations that were shut out of the liaison effort tell Insight that extremists spent large sums trying to buy access in an effort to hijack the Bush administration's initiative, obtaining repeated meetings at the White House and with the president himself to acquire political cover and claim legitimacy.

this story title should read a troubling year for terrorist as they are trying to undermine this nation from within....

....
Some Muslim communities have begun to mount their own counteroffensives.

On a recent Muslim holy day, a big bear of a man in a double-breasted black suit lectures sternly to several hundred of the faithful worshiping at the Muslim Center of New York.

“My brothers and sisters, it is wrong to stay inside your house and think this storm is going to pass,” said Bassem Khafagi, community affairs director of the national office of CAIR.

“We owe it to our kids to stand up and explain who we are and what we believe. Otherwise, what kind of country are you going to leave them? A country that hates them? A country that knows nothing about their religion? Would you like your kid to say someday, ‘Oh, my dad left me with a million dollars, but with no dignity?’” Khafagi left no doubt about what he regarded as the path to salvation in America.

Bush's scary CAIR friends


Too bad Patrick Henry isn't around to advise President Bush.

"We are apt to shut our eyes against a painful truth," Henry remarked. "For my part, I am willing to know the whole truth; to know the worst; and to provide for it."

Though Henry never faced modern-day Islamic terrorists, he was around for other miscreants, known as pirates. And unlike Bush and Colin Powell, neither he nor our other founding fathers consorted with the pirates' representatives and pro-pirate "civil rights" groups in America. In those days, our leaders didn't make "Coalitions Against Piracy" with the countries who hosted and harbored pirates. And they didn't make statements saying that this was not about piracy and pirates, a peaceful group who just wanted to plunder, rape and pillage.

But, unfortunately, as I've described in my recent columns, President Bush has invited representatives of the most radical, pro-terrorist Islamic groups in America to pray with him at the National Cathedral, to pray with him at the Washington, D.C., mosque, to sit near Mrs. Bush at the big speech to Congress and to hold hands with him at the White House.

Today's terrorists have full entrée into the White House.

MONEY TRAIL [Mark Krikorian]
Newsweek's Michael Isikoff is on the trail again, this time linking libertarian activist Grover Norquist to a Saudi-backed "charity" raided last week by federal agents. Though Norquist denounces any implication of impropriety as "incompetent McCarthyism" (as opposed to the competent kind?), the chain seems pretty clear: The SAFA Trust gave thousands to the Islamic Institute, which Norquist helped found and which operates out of the same office as he does. The point is not that Grover is defending terrorism but that in his zeal to attract Muslims to the GOP (which he made the case for in a now-hilariously inappropriate column for The American Spectator in June 2001), he appears to be blinding himself to the less attractive aspects of their agenda and worldview--which is a problem given the near universality of virulent anti-Americanism and lunatic Jew-hatred among Muslims in the Middle East.
This just adds to problems that started with a November New Republic expose of Grover's ties with radical Muslims, including Abdurahman Almoudi, an open supporter of Hamas and Hezbollah.

There is a Iraq connection to the oil companies in Michigan, but besides that..........

Is Michigan a Terror Stronghold?

A police report obtained by Newsweek calls Detroit “a lucrative recruiting area and potential support base for international groups.”

I've seen that, another poster suggested the proximity of the Canada border. Security isn't much improved at the crossings on the east side of Mi. since 9/11. I'm on Lake Michigan shoreline, still I don't like the closeness of this.

Guess I'll go out today and buy some more ammunition.

Thanks for the find and your ping. I have bookmarked it.

This is just the tip of the iceberg of the Islamofacists activities in America as you noted.

Good for you. When the blood money trail from this country to Islamofacists/kazis and to this country gets exposed, we see a lot of top CAIR people involved.

FYI!

Abar has another great bit of documentation of the Islamofacists in action in America.

He received his doctorate in civil engineering, specializing in
structural engineering, in 1993.

Yep, use the fruits of free inquiry at our major universities...to calculate
amount of explosives/burning aviation fuel that would be needed to flat a building
and kill infidels in the country of The Great Satan.

He later lived in Ann Arbor, Mich., operating a business called International
Media Group from his home, court documents showed.
It was not clear what kind of business it was, court records said.


Probably would get an average Joe or Josephine a visit from the IRS...

As for spokesperson Hooper, I just pray he never quits going onto the Michael
Medved Show.
He always has to hedge answers to some of Medved's questions...otherwise he'd
lose credibility with his own constituency.
Love that First Amendment...and sharp minds like Medved who know how to ask the
right question to "get the b@$tards on the record".

We will see what a spider's web they have tried to weave. If it is massive, their sympathizers and enablers should be contained and detained.

More on this particular terror cell:

Prosecutors said yesterday that a computer which Al-Hussayen used had thousands of photographs, including the World Trade Center towers before and after the 2001 terrorism attacks.
BOISE, Idaho — A Saudi student accused of visa fraud has ties to two radical sheiks who support violence against the United States and should not be released before trial, federal prosecutors argued today.
http://archives.seattletimes.nwsource.com/cgi-bin/texis.cgi/web/vortex/display?slug=webstudent12&date=20030312&query=moscow


The government also said Al-Hussayen created or managed at least 14 Web sites that promoted terrorism, the overthrow of the United States and Israel, and the killing of people by suicide missions.
He is past president of the Muslin Student Association
http://archives.seattletimes.nwsource.com/cgi-bin/texis.cgi/web/vortex/display?slug=idaho27m&date=20030227&query=moscow+leader


Make NO MISTAKE about it... CAIR, AMC, MSA, et al are MUSLIM TERRORIST ORGANIZATIONS that must be excised from our country!

This is the tip of the iceberg. MUCH more in the PNW.

When, oh when, will we hear from the peace-loving Muslims who will rise up and stop, or report upon, the violent elements of their faith? I have been waiting since September 12, 2001.

One can only imagine. Hope the Feds are giving this bloke a thorough anal exam.

National Public Radio made the initial (Feb 26th ) arrest a big deal today, almost three weeks later, because there were 122 Federal agents involved.

The NPR "take" on the story focused on the number of agents involved without giving any details as to the widespread operation described in the MSNBC story, an operation that would require many people of varying expertise.

Spread the word ... this story has sprouted liberal wings.
