Federal agents on Thursday detained a Washington County lawyer in connection with the deadly March 11 terrorist attack in Madrid -- the first American connection to the worst terrorist attack since Sept. 11, 2001.
Brandon Mayfield, 37, who lives in Aloha and played a minor legal role in the Portland Seven terrorism case, was picked up at his West Slope law office on a material witness hold Thursday morning, said Tom Nelson, Mayfield's attorney.

What's interesting is that in a picture of Mr. and Mrs. Mayfield and the kids which is maybe 5 years old, they are totally dressed in American clothes. Her hair is pouffy and absolutely no sign of Muslim wear as in her recent picture with the Muslim signature headpiece. The difference is so distinct, I'd almost say the Muslim garb is an "act".
My concern with him is "Muslim Rights" after 9-11. ALL PEOPLE HAVE RIGHTS.

Great information! How did you find this? (I know, fertile brain and elephant-like memory of a Freeper...)
I think you've hit on something truly important. I hope our intelligence folks have also hit on it.
Morocco is a two-faced country. One face enchants the EU by pretending to be anti-terrorist "moderate" Islam; the other encourages radicalism, or pays tribute to it because it is easier to encourage terrorists than to build a functioning economy.

Does anyone think it is remotely possible that Mayfield was working undercover for the FBI? Probably not, but just a thought.
To: Sacajaweau
I wasn't sure of the accuracy of the report that said they were married in Nevada in 1998. Could you name your source for the more likely 1988 date?

When did the arrest of the Morrocans happen?
To: livius
I wish I could say that I was well-informed, but to be honest I just thought I would try a Google search on Moroccans and Portland and then found that I was surprised at what turned up.

Looks like the Parliament members were detained at the Portland airport on Saturday 31 January.

I've questions only a poll could answer (Hint to site administrators).
Do you believe there are two Islams, one radical, one moderate?
Do you believe Islam is conducting a world war against countries not governed by Islamic clerics?
I know I am not alone in my beliefs the "moderate" segment of Islam is an equal partner with the radical segment. They serve a purpose. They lull people into believing Islam can be our friend.
Islam is a nutcracker. We are the nut, and Islam is applying pressure from both sides.

The dipshit is a MUSLIM!!! Wow, you read the whole thing!

" A few things don't quite add up here." News reports last night had Nelson as a good friend but said he would not represent Mayfield.

I think the big question with Anderson, this guy and of course the sniper, John Mo, is what goes on in the mosques around Ft Lewis and with the Isalmo Chaplains.
