Mosque Attended by New Orleans Terrorist Refers FBI Inquiries to CAIR
Breitbart ^ | 01.02.2025 | Joel B. Pollak

The mosque reportedly attended by New Orleans terrorist Shamsud Din Jabbar urged members to refer inquiries from the FBI to the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) and the Islamic Society of Greater Houston.

More than a dozen were killed and dozens wounded in the terror attack in the early hours of New Year’s Day on Bourbon Street, in which Jabbar drove a truck with an ISIS flag into a crowd of revelers.

Newsweek reported:

A mosque near the Houston home of Shamsud-Din Jabbar, who police say carried out the New Year’s Day attack in New Orleans, has urged its congregation not to respond to media inquiries and to refer to other Islamic organizations if contacted by the FBI.

In an Instagram story posted after the attacker’s identity was announced, the Masjid Bilal condemned what it said were “terrible acts.” It added, “If approached by the FBI and a response is necessary, please refer to CAIR and ISGH,” referring to the Council on American-Islamic Relations and the Islamic Society of Greater Houston.

CAIR is a radical organization that has provided assistance to terrorists’ families in the past. As Breitbart News reported in 2015, the local branch of CAIR provided help to the families of the ISIS-affiliated terrorists who carried out a mass shooting against San Bernardino county employees (their colleagues) during a Christmas holiday party.

I just posted "Where's the local mosque" a few minutes ago because more likely than not...a good meeting place.

And voila...

Place your bets - how quickly will the MSM stories on this terrorist attack shift to the “Racist America Persecutes Innocent Muslims” story line?

“A mosque near the Houston home of Shamsud-Din Jabbar, who police say carried out the New Year’s Day attack in New Orleans, has urged its congregation not to respond to media inquiries...”

Not responding to media inquires is solid advice to everyone in this country.

Imams are not free to speak to the FBI? The FBI must go through the cartel?

The Mosque has Trump presidential records in the basement from 2018. That should get the FBI unfettered access.

The FBI needs to round up the members of this “Mosque” and ask them questions about their interactions with this nut.

In fairness, if the FBI came to me for any reason, I wouldn’t talk with them, either.

They’ll just lie and say you lied.

If you have to talk, talk in your lawyer’s office with stenographer and video camera.

The media does not inquire.

The CAIR website is cair.com.

It doesn’t look any more extreme than any other advocacy group, about anything. You could go to the NRA site and see similar advocacy. Or anti gun sites and ditto, similar advocacy.

An extremist site would be calling for assassination of world figures, or poisoning city water supply.

Speaking out in support of whatever position is advocated does not equate to extemism.

CAIR must be acting as their lawyers.

I would want everything to go through my lawyer, too.
