Muslim paramilitary compounds springing up around America

A U.S. defense analyst and author says Americans should be very concerned about some radical Muslim paramilitary compounds that have sprung up around the country and that are surrounded with "No Trespassing" signs.

Hear This Report

Greg Copley, president of the International Strategic Studies Association (ISSA), says the compounds are often populated with former U.S. convicts who were converted to Islam in prison. These convicts, he contends, are connected to a Pakistani organization.

"Islamberg in New York, Ahmedabad in Virginia, and Holy Islamville in South Carolina, and so on are places which have been formed largely by Jamaat ul-Fuqra," Copley notes, "which is a fundamentalist jihadist movement, which has been involved in terrorist activity and supporting terrorist activity."

The U.S. government has been monitoring the organization's activities, the ISSA official says. "The U.S. government, for example, claimed that ul-Fuqra members were involved in more than a dozen bombings and arson attacks during the 1980s and 1990s," he points out, and that members were "possibly responsible for a couple dozen homicides, and possibly linked to the murder of Daniel Pearl, the Wall Street Journal reporter who was killed in Pakistan."

Jamaat ul-Fuqra, which means "community of the impoverished," recruits converts from the U.S. prison system, the defense analyst says. "They're a very big international group," he asserts. "They do have connections to fundamentalist groups in Pakistan."

There is also evidence that ul-Fuqra may have been linked to shoe-bomber Richard Reid, Copley adds. He says he believes U.S. authorities should thoroughly investigate and keep a watch on the activities of these Muslim compounds that are located in America but connected to a Pakistani jihadist movement.

I agree. Even if there is a remote chance that such could be true we can still win them over with love.

With the way this country is going the second civil war is almost on us. Actually the Goverment has been waging it against the citizens for some time now I guess it will take a Hillary presidency to wake up most people.

Look at it this way. Once Chertoff secures the border, all these no-goods will be trapped right here and unable to leave.

Now if we can convince the Feds that these are really “militant” Christian compounds, they’ll bomb them and kill everyone in the place.

Michael Cherdumkoff doing anything about this? Nah. Didn’t think so.
‘’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’’

Too busy calling Americans bigots and racists for wanting to secure the boarder. He doesn't’t have time to pursue terrorists inside the U.S..

A few weeks of dry weather, a little forest arson when the wind is right. With careful placement, the Islamic jihadists might even be the ones to get blamed for it

Considering what a good job Karl Rove did, using his insidious weather control machine to steer Katrina into New Orleans, steering a forest fire should be a piece of cake.

“Looks like Janet Reno’s raid on the Waco compound may have set a precedent for future raids on such places as in this article.” It’s hard to say, I believe that the Waco debacle was a bad thing. To me it was the federal government literally waging war against its own citizens, as was that nauseating event at Ruby Ridge. Neither the Davidians nor the Weavers are people I’d care to get close to, but I see a greater danger to the country posed by heavy handed federal law enforcement.

With regard to these Islamist camps, I like most people believe that they are up to no good, and I hope that law enforcement is at least aware of them and keeping an eye on them. If these stories are true there is real cause for concern. Those people are cunning, and know how to game the system. Our timidity only emboldens them.

I guess where I’m going with this, is that municipal and county and state governments need to get their heads out of their backsides and wise up to these threats in our midst. They probably have the law enforcement resources to police these places before they become huge problems. They just need the will to do it. A Waco like mess would just create sympathy for them in the media and among the American left. Watching jihadists in this country getting blown to hell would certainly be fun to watch, but politically it would prove counterproductive.

checked another site that mentioned islamville was 6 miles west of the nuke plant outside of York, SC and that there was also a conclave near the Dover TN site. Then a thought crossed my mind. If islamville is six miles west of the plant in York, a twelve mile hike would be six miles in and six miles out. Scary.

The Dover, TN compound is situated along a major power line easement just 7 miles from Tennessee's highest producing power plant, and just 12 miles from the Army base at Fort Campbell, KY. Read more here:

That’s pretty unlikely. They are, after all, on the side of these people. The Saudis fund all this and the Administration calls the last ambassador from SA a member of the family (Bandar “Bush”).

State is even sending Muslims to Europe to help quell “nativists”.

Give the UTM coordinates (GPS location) of those places to the UASF. They could make good use of several new bombing and live-fire air-to-ground practice ranges...

The U.S. government has been monitoring the organization’s activities,

but it’s ok for them to build para-military compounds around the country,staffed with ex-convicts whom have converted to islam and you know they are armed to the teeth.
