One reason this administration may not wasn’t to touch MoA is that MoA, though Sufi, not Shiite, is rather fond of the Iranian regime. Among this group’s beliefs is trutherism as well as a firm belief in the Mahdi cult like Ahmadinejad.

From the linked article for those who have not read it:

“Muslims of the Americas (MOA) is headquartered at a 70-acre private community called Islamberg. The International Quranic Open University and United Muslim Christian Forum are MOA entities and share the same address. It is led by a radical cleric in Pakistan named Sheikh Mubarak Ali Gilani.

“The Department of Homeland Security says MOA is linked to Jamaat ul-Fuqra, a Pakistani militant group led by Gilani.[1] In 1998, the State Department said ul-Fuqra is an “Islamic sect that seeks to purify Islam through violence.”[2] In March 2014, close to a dozen anti-Islamist Muslim Organizations in the U.S. and Canada released a statement in conjunction with the Clarion Project calling on the State Department to designate Jamaat ul-Fuqra as a Foreign Terrorist Organization.[2a]

...

“MOA says it has 22 settlements across the United States.[8] A 2006 report for law enforcement put the number at above 35 and estimated that the organization has 3,000 members. It said that the organization is set up like “classically structured terrorist cells” and that Gilani is “now known as an international terrorist.” It said that at least seven of the communes are used for paramilitary training and that members are also sent to Pakistan for further instruction. [9] There are unconfirmed reports of members being trained in Sudan.[10]”
