"The group advocates a return to the days when all Muslims were governed by a religious leader known as the caliph."

That enough to ship him out!

"...an Islamic scholar whose writings argue that the religion is not compatible with democracy"

I agree with this guy: Islam is most definitely "not compatible" with democracy.

Agreed, and yet we still allow muslims to immigrate here legally (not to mention the jihadis that are sneaking over our porous borders)...

"People in Washington think that those who want an Islamic state are terrorists. That's not always the case," Marayati said.

Oh yes it is.
Islam has no qualms whatsoever about using force if necessary in order to expand. That is a historical fact. The only time islam has had a quiescent period is after a great and decisive military defeat.

Shari'a Law and Constitutional Republics are antithecal, contradictory, irreconcilable. Did I say mutually exclusive?

I would allow islam to expand in my country by persuasion, but if and only if all 58 islamic countries did likewise with other religions.

My view is that islam can't be spread without violence or the threat of violence, and that's why it's so intolerant.

Capturing the story and some good links.

********************************************************************

LAGUNA BEACH CALIFORNIA

 

A LOCAL NEWS GATHERING ORGANIZATION

 Michael Webster: Publisher mvwsr@aol.com  (949) 494-7121 www.michaelwebster.net 

Laguna Beach Visitors Bureau

 

Terrorist Cell and Terrorist Recruiter in Orange County  

 Michael Webster: Investigative Reporter

wibcom@aol.com  

John Loftus said on the live national radio talk show coast to coast with host George Noory,  he stated, " I know for sure that a Terrorist cell is operating in Orange County Mosques and is recruiting young Moslems." Its also believed both American born and non- American born youth are receiving terrorist training.  click to see larger imageMr. Loftus claims that the cell is operating openly and freely with no apparent investigation by law enforcement. This is potentially a very dangerous situation that needs attention by Federal, State and Local law enforcement. Its believed to be a large cell operating with a number of locally recruited and trained terrorist who could strike anywhere at anytime if unabated. John Loftus has more inside information on the terrorists abroad and at home, and asks, "When are we going to wake up?"  

In June, he warned of the London bombings, and now has more on what we can expect in our country and right here in Orange County

  John Loftus is President of the IntelligenceSummit.org, and can be heard weeknights on ABC's John Batchelor program. John said, I hate to say this, but I think the FBI has been asleep at the switch. A lot of people, including my private investigator Bill Warner, who I think is the best PI in America, have said there's been a real problem with the FBI leadership in Washington. People can't get search warrants in time. If it happens outside the FBI, it doesn't get pursued. If it's not invented here, it's not touched, it's put on the back burner. Unfortunately, we're in a position where we can't allow that kind of luxury any more. Because the same organizations in the United States are directly linked to the ones in London that just pulled off the subway bombings. 

Al-Muhajiroun 

According to John Al-Muhajiroun  are here in America, and the successor organizations.  These groups have been desecrating the American flag, and have demanded an Islamic nation in the United States.

Hizb al-Tahrir And al-Tahrir 

Al-Muhajiroun has offices in both New York and London. They were the parent organization, the Finsbury Mosque, of the subway bombings. Their leadership in New York was responsible for planning the subway bombings. What we're finding out is that they have a sister organization called Hizb al-Tahrir. And al-Tahrir is, if you will, the operational or training arm, Muhajiroun is the recruiting arm. Now the Russian Secret Service says that Hizb al-Tahrir is the secret radical arm of the Muslim brotherhood. This is the granddaddy of all the terrorist organizations. It goes back to the old Arab Nazi movement of the 1940s. And they worked for the British Secret Service. Then our CIA dumped them in Saudi Arabia, where they were running schools for young kids like Usama Bin Laden. But these folks have come home to roost. We have found out definitely, Bill Warner has found, that the new elected leader of the terrorist group Hizb al-Tahrir lives in Orange County, California. And that he has direct ties with the same groups in London. In fact, the group, the Islamic Thinkers Society in New York--that used to be the address, the post office box, of Iyad Kilal, also called Abu Tarik. And he lives at 500 Gerry Street, in La Habra, Orange County California--

  Jihad

Mr. LOFTUS said  we've found out that this same guy, Iyad Hilal, has been the author of a book on self-study on how to become an Islamic extremist, if you will. And that one of his early neighbors at a previous address was a young kid named Adam Pearlman, who's now known as Azzam the American, who became an Al-Qaeda member and promised that America will see a new wave of terror, and that the streets will run with blood. Now he was recruited into Muslim society at the mosques where this same guy, Iyad Hilal, was one of the instructors. So the leader of the most radical terrorist arm of the same groups that did the London subway bombing, has a whole cell going in Orange County, California, and has recruited terrorists there. When are we going to wake up?
 

Connecting The Dots

So it can now be presumed that Al-Muhajiroun and Hizb al-Tahrir.has cells in at least New York, England, Germany and Orange County California. Al-Muhajiroun and Hizb al-Tahrir were the parent organization, of the Finsbury Mosque, they were the London subway bombers. Their leadership in New York was responsible for planning the subway bombings.  And that there sister organizations are Hizb al-Tahrir and al-Tahrir if you will, is the operational or training arm, and Al-Muhajiroun is the recruiting arm. Add that the Russian Secret Service says that Hizb al-Tahrir is the secret radical arm of the Muslim brotherhood... and the new elected leader of the terrorist group Hizb al-Tahrir in America is allegedly Iyad Kilal, and that he lives in La Habra in Orange County, California. And that he has direct ties with the same groups in London and the Islamic Thinkers Society in New York. Iyad Kilal, is also called Abu Tarik.

 MOSQUES 

Orange County's Mosques that Iyad Kilal, also called Abu Tarik may have instructed or attended are: Islamic Educational Center of Orange County Costa Mesa 

Darul-Uloom, Santa Ana 

, and OCI Foundation, Mission Viejo.

   Attempted contact of the above Orange County Mosques by phone was made by the Journal and were answered by machines. By publishing time no return calls had been received by the Journal.

 LEADERS CHARGED WITH PROTECTING US AGAINST TERRORIST ATTACKS

     FBI Director Mueller 

Robert S. MuellerAn attempt was made to contact the Local FBI by phone at their offices in Santa Ana California. The Journal was directed by a answering machine to call the L.A. FBI office. Which we did. A male voice answered. The Journal reporter  Identified himself and asked to talk with an FBI agent. The reporter had to ask several times if he was speaking to an FBI agent. After several minutes he was finally transferred to who claimed to be the FBI Duty Agent. The FBI Duty Agent said, he did not know of this terrorist cell nor had he heard of Iyad Kilal, also called Abu Tarik. The Journal then offered the information and content of this story. The Duty agent took the information reluctantly and without further inquiry.

Assistant Director,
Counterterrorism Division

 According to Willie Hulon, Assistant Director of Counterterrorism Division's web page stated "the FBI is part of a vast national and international campaign dedicated to defeating terrorism. Working hand-in-hand with partners in law enforcement, intelligence, the military, and diplomatic circles, our job is to neutralize terrorist cells and operatives here in the U.S. and to help dismantle terrorist networks worldwide. " However if the press or the public can't reach them to report terror, and if they show little or no interest. How will they be able to accomplish their mission and protect American citizens. I can't help but wonder had this been an terrorist related life threatening emergency how could it had worked any better?

Sheriff's Terrorism Commentary  

 

 

 

   Orange County Sheriff Michael S. Carona

The La Habra Police Chief Dennis Kis said, his dept through one of his watch commanders received a  tip in the form of a phone call from a resident of Marina del Rey about a week ago. The Gerry street address was then checked out by his officers and the subject in question was not living there. And the chief was not sure if the subject had lived there at any time in the past. "there is a couple living there now and they checked out OK. However we did turn the matter over to the joint FBI task force on terrorism." He also said, he believed the couple was recently on the popular John and Ken radio talk show on a LA radio station KFI. He believes the task force will keep him informed or if they need his help they will contact his dept.

So what does the Orange County Register have as its Above the fold story this morning?.....

Milestone for Muslims

A colorful, Andalusian-style minaret was hoisted up and slipped into place Tuesday morning at the Islamic Institute of Orange County in Anaheim.


The Orange County Register

A 38-foot minaret was hoisted Tuesday atop the newly completed Omar Al Farouk Mosque at the Islamic Institute of Orange County in Anaheim. It is covered in a 1,200-year-old pattern created from Moroccan tiles. Traditionally, minarets are used to call the faithful to prayer and are the most widely recognized symbol of an Islamic house of worship. About 170,000 Muslims live in Orange County, with many living in the Anaheim area. About 1,200 are part of the community around the IIOC.
