In 2004, I worked on a US Army base as a civilian contractor. One safety lecture had a security briefing about an incident in NYC that had prevented a planned attack. One of the NYPD SWAT officers who participated in the action was interviewed in the video. Clearly there are plans to recruit, train and carry out terrorists attacks here in the USA. (This incident NEVER made national news, and probably not the local news either.)

Jihad in Brooklyn: The NYPD Raid That Stopped America's First Suicide Bombers
No we won’t. We are loading up. My daughters are taking care of the necessities for life, and we are taking care of the necessities to fight.
Gilani left the United States in 1993 and appeared later in the year at the Islamists Popular Arab and Islamic Confernce held in Khartoum. He then surfaced in the Islamist struggle for Kashmir and was supported by former members of the Pakistani ISI, including its former leader Beg. After he left the Al Fuqra, which had been especially powerful in Colorado and Michigan and had been infiltrated by local police, the movement reportedly died out. The outfit may have been revived, but the information provided thus far does not provide the specifics needed, or the leadership present, that could make that judgement possible.
Where are these places? I hope private citizens near them are running surveillance. Next step is probing actions against them. Then... ?
Must be an old map. Only 21 on it.
Thank you, I stand corrected.

“Must be an old map. Only 21 on it. “
There are several missing on that map. For one, in So. Oregon they discovered several years ago and broke up.
Huh? I wasnt correcting you. I just thought you might be interested in hearing the longer, more detailed version of the story :-)
What was different that they broke these guys up but not the other 34?
“What was different that they broke these guys up but not the other 34?”
Good question. One of the leaders of the group was a blatant terrorist outside the country and it was early on after 9/11. Other than that I don’t know.
Here is a bit:
WASHINGTON Oussama Abdullah Kassir, a/k/a Abu Abdullah, a/k/a Abu Khadija, an individual who is charged in the Southern District of New York with, among other things, conspiring to provide material support and resources to al Qaeda, has been extradited from the Czech Republic. The charges relate to his participation in an effort to establish a jihad training camp in Bly, Oregon, and his operation of several terrorist websites. Kassir was taken into FBI custody this morning in Prague.
Kassir conspired with Mustafa Kamel Mustafa, a/k/a “Abu Hamza” (hereafter Abu Hamza) and Haroon Rashid Aswat, and others, to establish a jihad training camp on a parcel of property located in Bly, Ore. As it was used by the conspirators in this case, the term “jihad” meant defending Islam against its enemies through violence and armed aggression, including killing the enemies of Islam, if necessary, in order to expel non-believers from holy Muslim lands.
The purpose of the Bly jihad training camp was to provide a place where Muslims could receive various types of training, including military-style jihad training, in preparation for a community of Muslims to move to Afghanistan. Once in Afghanistan, the men in the community would have gained enough familiarity with weapons at the Bly jihad training camp to fight jihad or to continue with additional jihad training in Afghanistan. In a letter faxed from one of the co-conspirators to another, the property in Bly was described as located in a “pro-militia and fire-arms state” that “looks just like Afghanistan,” and the author stated that the group was “stock-piling weapons and ammunition.”
In late 1999, Abu Hamza asked Kassir and Aswat to travel from London, England, to Bly, Ore., to assist with establishing the jihad training camp. Prior to their departure, Abu Hamza gave Kassir and Aswat approximately £4,000 to pay for expenses incurred while establishing the jihad training camp. Thereafter, on Nov. 26, 1999, Kassir and Aswat arrived at John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York, after which they traveled to Seattle, Wash. and then to Bly, Ore.
In Bly, Kassir complained to a witness that there were only a few men available to train at the jihad training camp. Kassir also told witnesses that he supported Usama Bin Laden and al Qaeda, and that he had previously undertaken jihad training in Afghanistan, Kashmir, and Lebanon. A witness also saw Kassir in possession of a compact disc that contained instructions on how to make bombs and poisons.

Wife and I were talking last night how we have not seen one image of him coming out of or entering a Church since the election. One would think this event would be highly publicized by his handlers. I’d still like to see the White House menu.
He is Muslim.

We’ve got some no-nonsense folks in Southern OR. I gather they have a strong militia group still. And you can’t ask to join. They keep an eye out & if they like what they see, they ask you to join.
