SNIPPET: "Ahmadullah Sais Niazi, 34, who was arrested without incident this morning at his Tustin residence by members of the joint terrorism task force, was named in a five-count indictment returned Feb. 11 by a federal grand jury.

The indictment, unsealed this morning, alleges Niazi hid associations with "Specially Designated Global Terrorists," groups including Al Qaeda, Hizb-i-Islami and the Taliban, when he completed nationalization papers five years ago. During one visit, the government alleges Niazi visited Dr. Amin al-Haq, the security coordinator for Osama bin Laden."

This is my neighborhood.

Every Thanksgiving through New Years this streets/homes are turned into a Winter Wonderland. Thousands of people stroll by drinking hot chocolate, cider provided by home owners and admiring the lights and decorations.

I walked by the house tonite and it just made me so aware of what we do not know.

“Fact-checking the Mosque Infiltration Kerfuffle”
IPT News
April 24, 2009

SNIPPET: “A potentially significant terrorist case in California is being exploited by radical Islamist groups to mount a campaign against FBI efforts to collect intelligence on suspected terrorists.

The case involves Ahmadullah Niazi, who has been indicted on immigration charges. His brother-in-law has served as Osama bin Laden’s security coordinator. During a February bond hearing, an FBI agent testified that Niazi referred to bin Laden as “an angel” and provided an informant with taped sermons from an imam considered to have been a spiritual advisor for two September 11th hijackers.

Rather than praising law enforcement for rooting out a would-be terrorist from their community, Islamist groups are casting FBI efforts - the use of an informant inside mosques - as an assault on the civil liberties of all Muslim Americans.”
