Federal authorities say a leader of what they describe as a nationwide radical Sunni Islam group has been fatally shot during an FBI raid in the Detroit area.
The U.S. attorney's office in Detroit says Imam Luqman Ameen Abdullah refused to surrender during an FBI raid Wednesday and was killed in an exchange of gunfire.
Abdullah and 10 others were charged in a complaint with conspiracy to commit several federal crimes, including illegal possession and sale of firearms and theft from interstate shipments.
Authorities say an FBI dog also was killed during the raid.

“..black Muslim group that calls itself “Ummah,” or the brotherhood, and wants to establish a separate state within the United States governed by Sharia law, Interim U.S. Attorney Terrence Berg and Andrew Arena, FBI special agent in charge in Detroit, said in a joint statement.”
Great news....doubt the media can ignore this.
Will Bro call the cops stupid for killing his homey?
Wow, you have a cool home page.
Nice job.
Yes, his real name is “Christopher Thomas”.
“Can you imagine the reaction if this happened in a Church or Synagogue?!”
You must have forgotten the death of 86 Branch Davidians in Waco, Texas, burned to death when their church was set on fire by Janet Reno and Bill Clinton.
With a fine Christian name of Christopher Thomas it’s a disgrace to bug out and go Muslim. Lots of google news hits for Christopher Thomas
Much appreciated :)
I think Obama is hoping we will not notice he is preparing to cede Afghanistan back to the taliban.
"The church" was set on fire by the leaders of the Davidian sect, not anyone else.
Homegrown group ....maybe....
A story about this with his real name, Christopher Thomas:
Sheesh! I hadn’t heard about, nor thought of, H. Rap Brown in a coon’s age!
Sorry about the dog.
Also sorry only one jerkoff was stupid enough to test his “self defense skills” learned in the mosque.
A black Muslim gang. Maybe some were recruited in prison and that’s where they are headed back
Another Shaheed bites the dust and discovers there are no virgins for terrorists.
and I’m very sorry about the dog who died in service. Comfort to his handler.
But we are always told that islam is a peaceful religion!

In a court filing, the FBI said Abdullah, also known as Christopher Thomas, was an imam, or prayer leader, of a radical group named Unmah whose primary mission is to establish an Islamic state within the United States.
No one was charged with terrorism. But Abdullah was “advocating and encouraging his followers to commit violent acts against the United States,” FBI agent Gary Leone said in an affidavit.
“He regularly preaches anti-government and anti-law enforcement rhetoric,” Leone said. “Abdullah and his followers have trained regularly in the use of firearms, and continue to train in martial arts and sword fighting.”
Leone said members of the national group mostly are black and some converted to Islam while in prisons across the United States.
Obviously they need to take more bullets next time. Thanks grellis.
Well, at least the NORTHERN Mi news didn’t ignore it. I did see it there. Remarked that I wonder what connection there could be to “Aunt” Jenny Granholm’s generosity to the Muzzie brethern.
