Ok. I am done attacking. I was a little shocked reading the one-sidedness of the articles and replies. So lets talk politics.

The US pushes democracy and trade, then gets mad when it is with the wrong countries (Libya).

None of the comments in the article were taken directly from the CIA, just editors jumping to conclusions.

Remember not to believe everything you read and don't become Lemmings yourself. It is necessary to question the "facts" and try to see both sides. The man with the guns at one time was associated with the Jamaat and ended relations before the coup.

The other coup members are getting old and are more concerned about building mosques, houses, and keeping in touch with the middle east which makes sense for Muslims who go to Mecca in Saudi Arabia.

Panday and the Trinidadian government are not as reliable as us Americans may be led to believe and they are really trying hard to find the Jamaat guilty of something after being humiliated by the coup. In ten years they have not been able to find any other crimes done by these people under close scrutiny?

I am not saying that some of the articles don't make me suspicious of the Jamaat, I just think there has been no debate in this discussion and there needs to be.

Apparently they didn't have to look far:

...The four Muslim men accused in the JFK plot didn’t turn to Pakistan, Iran or Afghanistan for support after targeting the airport, home to an average 1,000 daily flights and 45 million passengers annually.
Instead, according to a federal complaint, the informant and defendants Kareem Ibrahim and Defreitas visited a compound belonging to the Jamaat al Muslimeen, a radical Muslim group based in Trinidad. When Defreitas discussed his radical “brothers” with the informant, he made it clear they were not Arabs, but from Trinidad and Guyana.
The complaint also made clear how deeply the informant had infiltrated the small band of would-be terrorists.
While Defreitas, a retired JFK airport cargo worker, made four reconnaissance missions to the airport with the informant, federal authorities captured each one on audio and video equipment.
Ibrahim and another suspect, Abdul Kadir, were in custody in Trinidad awaiting extradition hearings. Officials identified Kadir as a former mayor of a Guyanese town and a member of the country’s Parliament.
Authorities in Trinidad were still seeking a fourth suspect, Abdel Nur. ...

They planned to blow up pipelines leading to JFK Airport.

AUGUST 2, 2010 : (DEFREITAS & ABDUL KADIR ARE FOUND GUILTY IN JFK AIRPORT "CHICKENFARM" PLOT---- see JAM) ... “NEW YORK, (Reuters) – Two Islamist militants were found guilty today by a federal jury of plotting to bomb New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport.
Russell Defreitas, 67, a U.S. citizen born in Guyana, and Abdul Kadir, 58, of Guyana, conspired to blow up buildings, fuel tanks and pipelines at the airport in the New York City borough of Queens.”
SNIPPET: “Two other men were arrested in the plot. Kareem Ibrahim of Trinidad and Tobago was deemed too ill to be tried, but may face trial later.
