Islamberg resembles a ghost town.
The Muslim settlement captured national attention two years ago when a story entitled “Springtime in Islamberg” appeared in Atlas Shrugs, Canada Free Press, and other news pages. Since the publication of this expose, Islamberg became an item of interest for ABC News, Fox News, CNN, and other national news outlets; a subject of attention by such best-selling authors as Robert Spencer and Brigitte Gabriel; and the centerpiece of a documentary by Christian Action Network.
But much has changed within this 70 acre Islamic settlement that is located in the dense forest between the small rural villages of Deposit and Hancock in upper New York State. The sentry post is gone and no guards are in sight.
A handful of children play in the mud and muck before rows of rusty old trailers and a few women in full burqas saunter along the rutty dirt road that leads to the heart of the squalid Muslim compound.
Young men in Islamic garb no longer congregate before the makeshift mosque, and no students are in attendance at the one room shack that serves as Sheikh Gilani's “International Quranic Open University”.
The few residents who remain, clearly are not environmentalists. Sewage seeps from septic tanks and outhouses into the creek that flows at the base of the settlement. Bags of rotting garbage remain stacked between the trailers. And the once pristine countryside is now littered with junk cars, moldy mattresses, empty tanks of propane, and old appliances. Gunfire no longer can be heard from the firing ranges along the eastern parameter of the 70 acre property -- and no grunts come from new recruits at the obstacle course.

Got caught out didn’t they.
Someone TURNED ON the LIGHTS?? COCKROACHES!!
The LOVing Peaceful religion of ISLAM
If the sentries and radicals are no longer there, it just means they moved somewhere else in the USA.
I heard they bought a huge parcel of land in the Poconos shortly after the Islamberg story broke a couple of years ago. That would be my guess where they went.
Maybe they have completed their training and have deployed!!!
And did they leave the women and children they didn’t want behind?
If you read the entire article, it says that they are still there training in underground bunkers and are more decentralized and secretive - not gone.

Ah.
Green is the new red.
That is pretty disturbing. I’ve read many articles that said the groups are out there. They are probably biding their time and waiting.
