“We are fighting to destroy the enemy. We are dealing with evil at its roots and its roots are America.”
So said the Pakistani Sheikh Muburak Gilani, leader of the jihad terrorist group Jamaat ul-Fuqra. And the way that he and his organization are “dealing with evil at its roots” is to set up jihad terror training camps all over the United States -- often under the noses of government and law enforcement officials who are either indifferent or too hamstrung by political correctness to do anything about it. Sheikh Gilani is no shrinking violet, and Jamaat ul-Fuqra is a force to be reckoned with both in the United States and elsewhere. Journalist Daniel Pearl was on his way to interview Gilani when he was kidnapped and beheaded in 2002. The following year, a member of Jamaat ul-Fuqra, Iyman Faris, pled guilty to plotting to blow up the Brooklyn Bridge. In 2005, the Department of Homeland Security included the group among “predicted possible sponsors of attacks” on American soil. And in 2006, the Department of Justice reported that Jamaat ul-Fuqra “has more than 35 suspected communes and more than 3,000 members spread across the United States, all in support of one goal: the purification of Islam through violence.” That means, of course, violence against unbelievers.
Yet despite the fact that Justice and the DHS are obviously aware of what is going on, Jamaat ul-Fuqra continues to operate, relatively unhindered, in the United States. A new documentary from the Christian Action Network, Homegrown Jihad: The Terrorist Camps Around the U.S., tells the whole shocking story. CAN spent two years visiting many of these Jamaat ul-Fuqra terror compounds, at great risk to network personnel. The documentary filmmakers dared to go inside these camps, cameras rolling, to ask compound leaders pointed questions about who they were and what they were doing. The documentary reveals that these compounds are dedicated to the training of Muslims in terrorist activities. Most of these camps are tucked away in remote rural areas -- Hancock, N.y., Red House, Va. -- as far away from the watchful eye of law enforcement as possible. And what goes on in them is truly hair-raising: a training video that the network obtained shows American Muslims receiving training in how to fire AK-47 rifles and machine guns, and how to use rocket launchers, mortars, and explosives, as well as training in kidnapping, the murder of hostages, sabotage, and subversive operations. Yet the State Department doesn’t include Jamaat ul-Fuqra on its Foreign Terrorist Organization Watch List. And so far the mainstream media’s reaction to the documentary has run from indifferent to hostile. CBS News ran a hit piece on the film last Wednesday, saying that “officials describe the film to CBS News as ‘sensationalistic’ and without any real foundation. According to one official, it is strictly designed to upset and inflame people and does not present a true picture of any so-called ‘homegrown Jihad’ danger. No current intelligence exists to suggest any threat connected with this group, which officials describe as ‘wannabes’ and not terrorists.” No current intelligence? Someone should notify the Colorado Attorney General’s Office, which currently has posted on its website a page about Jamaat ul-Fuqra. “In addition to being suspected of committing numerous acts of domestic terrorism,” it says, “FUQRA members in the United States have been suspected of committing fraud against various governmental entitlement programs in an effort to financially support their activities.” And “FUQRA or its members have been investigated for alleged terrorist acts including murder and arson in New York, Detroit, Philadelphia, Toronto, Denver, Los Angeles and Tucson. UL FUQRA is suspected of more than thirteen firebombings and, at least, as many murders within the United States.” The Homegrown Jihad documentary, which premiered last week in Washington, does a great service in shedding light on this group’s activities. We can only hope that American law enforcement officials wake up out of their politically correct fever dream in time to close these camps and end once and for all the possibility that these jihadists could mount an attack on American citizens.Mr. Spencer is director of Jihad Watch and author of "The Politically Incorrect Guide to Islam (and the Crusades)", "The Truth About Muhammad" and the forthcoming"Stealth Jihad"
Chickens come home to roost,
Chickens come home to roost, masahallah!
very apt comment Habshi but
very apt comment Habshi but the unfortunate thing is that if America goes down, jihadists will have access to technology that can help them multiply the islamic growth rate..
There are two growth curves that need to be monitored.
a) islamic
b) awares of islam among non-muslims.
if the islamic growth curve hits its critical point before (b). USA will become IRA(Islamic republic of America).
If b supercedes a, then I am sure the backlash from non-muslims will force a majority of muslims to give up islam and hopefully the conflict will become contained until something else occupies human attention..
Things need to be done by
Things need to be done by US:
1. Not support Pakistani regime financially. I don't why America treats Pakistani regime as allies in war against terror.
2. Not play dirty politics as they did during Afghanistan-Russian war.
3. For any terrorist regime to be brought down, the economy has to be crippled. However, American and British govts are providing more funds to such regimes. What can you expect out of it? Nothing but further failures.
4. Western policy has always been to engage two nations at war. Unless and until they come out of it, they cannot win against Islamists.
Terrorist training camps on
Terrorist training camps on the soils of the the great satan? Subhanallah, mashallah, zizakalllah. Praise be to allah.Islam will rule the world.Kafirs be ready for a great slaughter.
Let us see how many read my words properly!
This is very serious matter
This is very serious matter for USA. FBI should arrest all the terrorists immediately and ban all sorts of training camps in the soil of USA. These Islamists should be tried in a special court and give death penalty, so that no one will be dare to do such thing in the soil of USA in future. FBI should keep all the Mosques and Islamic organizations in the US under very high powered microscope all the time.

Regardless of what America
Regardless of what America does for people they always get blamed. Muslims are told in America that America bombed Japan, never telling them that Japan bombed America first. Japan enslaved china and Korea, but that was America 's fault. Hitler was america's fault. The Hindu caste waS AMERICA'S FAULT! Terrorism is america's fault when america is 400 years old. As an American, I am sick and tired ot the crap. I went to war saving Europe, My relatives saved Ethopia from Italy and from the hatred of the "Rhineland Bastards.
Shared inventions with the world, showed the world greatness and all we get is hate. As a descendant of slaves sold to Europeans by Arab and African Muslims i must say thank you Mr. Europeans white man for buying my ancestors from the Caucasians with a tan and the Nubians. No where do Black thrive as in America. Oprah, one of the richest women in the world, self made, no inheritance but her own worth. No man married and left her money. Her money is hers. Black women have survived and if other women dont know how, but think that getting their butts beaten is a religious experience, then get your butts beaten somewhere else. Beheading is now in vogue because of Muslims. American men beat wives, and the wives beat their butts back.
No man will put his hands on me unless he has lost him mind. Black Muslims dont get paradise because allah only liked white men and 72 big breasted white virgins. I tell black Muslims that Allah called them DEVILS and show it to them.
Ishaq 243 called black men less than a donkey's penis. Black women are created STUPID and a bad omen h. 9:162,3. How can any black person join such a thing. 35 camps to start blowing up black malls, churches, buses in the planning. Black Muslims will be destroyed if they try it.
