NEW YORK - A radical Muslim cleric, arrested Thursday in London, is accused in a U.S. indictment of trying to establish a terrorist training camp in Oregon while providing aid to both al-Qaida and the Taliban.

Mustafa Kamel Mustafa, 47, also is charged in the 11-count indictment with hostage-taking and conspiracy in connection with a December 1998 incident that left four tourists dead in Yemen.

"Those who support our terrorist enemies anywhere in the world must know that we will not rest until the threat they pose is eradicated," U.S. Attorney General John Ashcroft (news - web sites) said in announcing the arrest Thursday.

Maybe that's why the feds were so hot to arrest that Oregon lawyer.

There has been a lot of Islamo-terror activity in the Pacific Northwest. There was that kid who deserted the military. There was also the case of "Mike" Hawash, the American citizen and former Intel employee.

The Democats will say this arrest is all politics, trying to get Iraq off the front page. That's what they were saying last night about the terror alert.

This Islamofascist has been connected to the USS Cole for years. Here is the link to a search on that connection. There are over 49,000 hits on this search:

Breaking News:

Mustafa Kamel Mustafa, a true Moslem patriot, has been doing research on opening a travel center for devout Middle Eastern terrorists Moslems. He travels to Oregon, US., London, England, Iraq and Afghanistan frequently with the Religion of Peace currently paying all of his costs.

Before the recent flight to London from Long Beach, Ca., the TSA (They Stand Around) inspected his luggage finding four of his prayer rugs wondering where he had the fifth. When he explained that he was wearing it, they allowed him to board the aircraft without further investigation.

The US State Department quickly issued a warning letter to the TSA (They Stand Around) reminding them about unnecessary harrassment of Muslim travelers within the United States. Currently the US State Department is under an agreement with the United Nations and the White House that all Middle Eastern terrorists Moslems shall not have their luggage inspected or be questioned by TSA (They Stand Around) employees or senior staff while inside American airports or aircraft. This is considered a gross sign of disrespect to all Moslems (and Mexicans). Nowhere in the US Constitution does it say anything about Moslems having their luggage inspected or being questioned by TSA (They Stand Around) employees or senior staff while inside American airports or aircraft. The International Supreme Court (World Court) has issued a lengthy private decision to the US Supreme Court in reference to this matter. The US Congress is voting on closing the unnecessary US Supreme Court next week. The Bill should pass easily as the President has agreed that the US Constituion and the Bill of Rights are just for appearence and political history books. Any more news on these matters will be posted on the front page of the World News and broadcast five times daily on all TV news stations. These broadcasts are 30 minutes before national prayer time.

Is this the same suspected terrorist that the Oregon lawyer was defending? We saw a little of that Mayfield interview on FOX, during dinner with mute on. So, all you could do is read the subtitles and watch his body language. The effect was incredible, the guy lied through the whole interview, if you believe the body language over his statements.

"Slowly but surely we could, if we had the will, eliminate these blood-thirsty, destructive parasites from American soil."

But the real question is can we keep them out?

They worked too hard to connect the dots. I'm sure this guy applied for tax exempt status for his camp and all we have to do is check Mayor Katz's files to see it was granted! < /only slightly sarcastic>

No, different one, Jeffery Battle, now in prison as one of the Portland 7.

Also, Mayfields wife was in contact with " a suspected terrorist group" in Southern Oregon. That story is not done yet.

My husband has been given a lot of instruction in body language for his work, and he found the interview with Mayfield extremely telling.

The better interviews were the two when he first got out of jail and then the one when charges were dropped. The first one told me he knew the "G" men had dirt on him. The second one he repeatedly (I think 5 times)said he liked being a lawyer and wanted to keep being one. Also, no lawsuit but might write a book. Real quiet now. Plea bargain, deal??

Actually, he just stayed in Katz's home and worked out of her office with the other Islamoterrorist in Portland.

The arrangement in Bly was taken care of by the former super Watermelon Jihadist Governor of Oregone.

It is amazing how the left wing mediots and pressitutes have hidden this data from their readers and viewers.

Here are some very scary paragraphs about what the intent of this al Qaeda training camp was:




"That aborted effort has now thrust Bly into the thick of a Seattle-based FBI and federal grand-jury investigation into al-Qaida's activities in the United States. Authorities suspect that a group of Seattle-based Muslims, mostly U.S. citizens, were operating as a "cell" in support of al-Qaida, and that opening a terrorist-training camp was part of their plans.

For about six months beginning in September 1999, Semi Osman — a cleric at a small Seattle mosque named Dar-us-Salaam — lived on the ranch, a few miles outside town. Osman is now in federal custody in Seattle, charged with immigration and weapons violations and under investigation for terror-related activities.

Sources say Osman's visitors on the Bly ranch included two members of a London mosque led by Sheik Abu Hamza al-Masri, a radical cleric believed to be an al-Qaida recruiter, and militant members of Osman's Central Area mosque. Some of the visitors rode horses and fired automatic weapons, according to people in the area.

Police began to watch the ranch closely, said Klamath County Sheriff Tim Evinger.

Do you have to incorporate to set up a terrorist training camp?

Or maybe just have a name such as Mustafa or Muhammed or Ahmed?

"The big problem with their mindset these days is that Osama and his buddies want to KILL THEM TOO."

The term "useful idiots" is aptly applied to them.
