“Homeground
Jihad: The Terrorist Camps Around the U.S.” is a new documentary
that needs public attention.
“Act
like you are his friend. Then kill him.” –Sheik Muburak
Gilani explaining how to kill American infidels
The
2006 Justice Department document that exposes 35 terrorist training
compounds in the U.S. was marked “Dissemination Restricted to
Law Enforcement.” All the copies of Sheik Muburak Gilani’s
terrorist training video, “Soldiers of Allah,” had been
confiscated and sealed—all of them, except one…That one
errant surviving copy landed with the Christian
Action Network and became the foundation for the compelling documentary
Homegrown Jihad: The Terrorist Camps Around the U.S
I
too often say, it is not a question of WHO is right or wrong but WHAT
is right or wrong that counts. The “Soldiers of Allah”/
Jamaat ul-Fuqra is flat out WRONG on multiple levels.
That
the FBI, Homeland Security and other law enforcement knows who and what
this group is and has apparently not moved aggressively to shut them
down and make arrests is counter-intuitive brain flatulence of epic
(and potential deadly) proportions.
After
watching the video twice the obvious question is, where is the Main
Stream Media? This story is what Sixty Minutes, 20/20, and the gaggle
of presumptive wannabes is supposed to be all about.
Sheik
Muburak Gilani can be seen on video saying, “We are fighting
to destroy the enemy. We are dealing with evil at its roots and its
roots are America.”
If
a GOP candidate, talk show gadfly or militia even hinted at the domestic
terrorism “Soldiers of Allah” advocates, they would be raided,
shut down, tried and jailed quicker than a minnow can swim a dipper.
How long did it take to drop chlorine in the Timothy McVey gene pool?
However,
despite an abundance of evidence and series of violent crimes, Sheik
Gilani appears literally to be getting away with murder.
That
2006 Department of Justice report said, “Today, 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.”
The
documented list of this group’s violence screams out for action.
So why is law enforcement sitting on their hands?
George
Santayana is often quoted as having said, “Those who cannot remember
the past are condemned to repeat it.
Six
years ago I wrote
about Peter Lance’s gripping series of books. In the wake
of interviews with scores of central figures and hundreds of pages of
declassified documents, Lance uncovered startling evidence of FBI negligence
that even a joint congressional committee either missed or ignored.
His revelations can be read in “1000 Years for Revenge: International
Terrorism and the FBI – The Untold Story.”
It
is a tragedy to not know what we don’t know. To know what we know
and not do anything about it exceeds mere malfeasance.
Sheik
Gilani’s “soldiers have been actively engaging in domestic
terrorism” since 1979 and reportedly
continue to this day.
While
hiding in plane view in 35 states and responsible for some 50 terrorist
attacks on American soil linked to Jamaat ul-Fuqra the obvious question
is what is law enforcement waiting for?
I
was once attacked by CAIR (Council on American Islamic Relations) over
something I said (on WMAL in D.C.). Basically I observed that the Qur’an
allows Muslims to lie to unbelievers. Kinda/sorta like what Sheik Gilani
said, “Act like you are his friend. Then kill him.”
Robert
Spencer (from Jihad Watch) noted in a FrontPage
article, “Yet even as it complained about Metcalf’s
statement, CAIR’s press release attacking Metcalf doesn’t
say what Metcalf said was false. Why not? Because it’s true.”
Duh!
“The
truth,” Ann Coulter has observed, “is the truth whether
we like it or not.”

The
allegations in the referenced documentary are serious as a heart attack…and
potentially more deadly.
At
an absolute minimum, the Foggy Bottom Bureaucrats should add Jamaat
ul Fuqra to the State Department's Foreign Terrorist Organization Watch
List, thereby shutting down the domestic terrorist camps in the U.S.
run by ul-Fuqra's front group, Muslims of America.
