War On Terror: After 9/11, Pakistan promised to close its radical madrassas as part of anti-terror reforms. Now we learn they're not only still open, but also recruiting and brainwashing American boys.
One particularly radical school in Karachi freely displays a banner at its main gate urging Muslims to join the Taliban. At least 80 Americans are enrolled at Jamia Binoria, an international school. Many of its graduates joined the Taliban and became commanders.
Another jihadist seminary in Pakistan connected to Jamia Binoria brainwashed John Walker Lindh, the American Taliban now serving time for attacking U.S. soldiers in Afghanistan.
The mullahs who run these terrorist hatcheries come to America to recruit boys, many of them from Lindh's home state of California. Jamia Binoria's headmaster, Mufti Mohammad Naeem, travels to the U.S. each year during Ramadan to meet with Muslim parents — like a college football coach recruiting prospects.

Any of the parents of these kids who are currently in the US should be arrested. If they’re non-citizens they should be deported after an investigation to check if they’re active terrorist sympathizers — if they are, they should be kept locked up here, where we can keep an eye on them.
BS
It was not the Muzzies that unduly influenced Lindh, no more then it was the PLO that unduly influenced the pancake girl.
Their actions were the direct result of being raised by liberal extremist parents in areas that are socialistic enclaves in the USA (Marin County for Lindh).
Liberals forever deny responsibility for their actions. I am not about to buy into the "brainwashed" BS as an excuse for American Leftist extremists who take the action that many others on the left wish they had the balls to do themselves.
Red herring. This story is about American boys whose Pakistani parents are sending abroad for terrorist training. Your remarks are irrelevant.
“if they’re active terrorist sympathizers”
Sending your kid to Pakistan is “active”.
obviously they are citizens
Future US Presidential candidates?
No it is not. I was responding to the quote in the article which states that Lindh was "brainwashed". He was not brainwashed and my comment is 100% relevant to the portion of the article that I was commenting to (which I quoted).
Now if you think that I am stealing this thread with a side issue, that may your your opinion, but was not my intent.
This needs the attention of someone like Frank Gaffney.
If they come back or even stay overseas and commit any acts against this country they should be charged with treason, tried for it, and executed if found guilty. We are at war with islamic extremism and need to start treating traitors as traitors.
TSA will protect us.
Obama got his training at a very early age.

My apologies. You are right. The article is in error and your comment is warranted.
I do appreciate that you reviewed and reconsidered. Take care.
Ah, they all blow up too soon.
