FBI monitors Islamic group Tablighi Jamaat at Masjid Al-Falah Queens New York

SNIPPET: "The Tablighi Jamaat (TJ) name has come up before in connection with terrorism plots, including the October 2002 Portland Seven and the September 2002 Lackawanna Six cases in the United States, as well as the August 2006 plot to bomb airliners en route from London to the United States, the July 7, 2005, London Underground bombings and the July 2007 attempted bombings in London and Glasgow, Scotland.

Over the past several years we also have received several queries about TJ from U.S. law enforcement officials who are concerned about the group’s presence and activities in the United States.

U.S. and British intelligence authorities, citing a number of cases, contend that the Tablighis have direct ties to al Qaeda."

SNIPPET: "By some estimates, Tablighi Jamaat has a 50,000-strong following in the United States. Indeed, Tablighi mosques currently operate in several U.S. States, including California, Texas and New York, while the Masjid Al-Falah mosque in the Corona area of Queens, N.Y., apparently is the group’s North American headquarters, see photo above. John Walker Lindh traveled with Tablighi preachers to Pakistan in 1998 to further his Islamic studies before joining the Taliban in neighboring Afghanistan. Also, the Buffalo cell, otherwise known as the Lackawanna Six, that was convicted of providing material support to al Qaeda and the Oregon cell that conspired to bomb a synagogue and was charged with providing material support to al Qaeda were both involved in Tablighi missionaries."

“Airline bomb plot: mosque has been recruiting ground for 20 years
Sean O’Neill, Crime and Security Editor

SNIPPET: “The mosque frequented by key members of the airline plot terror cell has been a recruiting ground for Islamist extremists for more than 20 years, The Times can reveal.

The Queen’s Road mosque in Walthamstow, East London, was a regular place of worship and meeting place for central figures from the group.

Abdullah Ahmed Ali, the cell leader, prayed there and met with his associates including Waheed Zaman, who lived opposite.

The mosque is currently under the control of Tablighi Jamaat, an ultraorthodox Islamic sect which preaches that Muslims should replicate the life of Muhammad and tells them it is their duty to travel the world converting non-believers to the one true faith.”

Citizens of America are monitoring all Muslims right now as its apparent the Islamic world sees an opportunity to make strategic advances right now with America divided, especially with the democratic left that is looking for physical support.

With an ever increasing American patriotic voice being spoken and acted upon to preserve, protect and to enforce the laws of our Constitution and with the political opponents being exposed for their corruption, lies and treasonous deeds they are getting bunched up in a corner with no choice but to side with the devil.

And the devil is Islam.

Shame on NY for allowing this to continue. These people should have been taken out after 9/11.

You’re right and it makes me nervous, or at least vigilant, that they are abundantly here in CA as well.
