...

Ahmad Jebril, 43, who has gained an international following amongst ISIS fighters and sympathizers, is on probation soon after serving 6½ years in prison. Just after being released in 2012, he has used social media to turn out to be what authorities say is the most well known religious leader for Islamists from the West fighting for ISIS, also recognized as ISIL or the Islamic State.

...

The Centre for the Study of Radicalisation and Political Violence released a report in April that said Jebril was the most well known inspirational figure for Western fighters flocking to the Middle East to join ISIS. Jebril’s “popularity is especially sturdy amongst groups like ISIS,” the report mentioned. Amongst the militants the center surveyed, a lot more than half of these who liked Jebril on his Facebook page and followed him on Twitter have been with ISIS.

Why is a muzzie cleric, who is known to be popular with ISIS fighters, still on the street? Uh forgot, first Amendment.

Would we have allowed a Nazi agent to roam the streets during WWII?

Are we fighting to win or to break even?

Sorry folks, second place in this fight is definitely no option.

wonder how many Islamic doctors in the USA are sending cash to ISIS. Think about this next time you pick one to be your physician.

One of my serious questions:

Is the name change to ISIS/ISIL from Al Queda real or just a cover for those saying Al Queda was on the run, and don’t we just keep calling it Al Queda just to embarrass them?

Al Qaeda kills 3000 people on 9/11/2001 in Manhattan and Washington DC by bringing the WTC buildings down and ISIS slaughters unarmed Christians in Syria and Iraq.

They both bang their heads on the ground facing Mecca and they both get their inspiration from a satanic book that teaches to cut off the heads of infidels.

Why should we give a damn what they call themselves.
