San Diego mosque where mass shooting left 3 dead has controversial history — including ties to 9/11 hijackers

Previously, the Islamic Center of San Diego made headlines for its connection to Sept. 11, 2001, hijackers Nawaf al-Hazmi and Khalid al-Mihdhar.

Both hijackers reportedly prayed at the mosque and found an apartment nearby through advertisements at the mosque while taking flight lessons in the city.

More recently, Imam Taha Hassane has come under fire for his comments on the Oct. 7, 2023, attacks.

Hassane’s wife and daughter have also been under fire for inflammatory rhetoric.

Selma Hassane has “promoted incitement, spread hatred of Israel, engaged in anti-Israel activism and is a supporter of the Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) movement,” according to watchdog group, Canary Mission.

His wife, Lallia Allali, allegedly posted graphic images of a “Jewish star murdering babies..."

Neighbors told The Post that there was tension between the mosque and the local community — which includes a nearby Hebrew language charter school.

The relationship between the school and mosque “grew uncomfortable,” said the mom, adding that Imam Hassane transformed from “very moderate and friendly.”

Another reason CNN is laying low on reporting on this shooting. I’m sure they are desperately looking for some way to tie this to Trump. Maybe Abby Normal Phillips will come up with something.

There was a shooting at a mosque in California and who does Jake Tapper immediately interview?

The grandson of a Palestinian terrorist Muhammad Yousef al-Najjar, a senior member of the Palestinian terrorist group Black September that murdered 11 Israeli athletes at the 1972 Munich Olympics.

WTF is this Islamic Center still open???

They hosted two 9/11 hijackers. Not merely a place to “pray” but members helped them get Soc. Sec #’s, drivers’ licenses, sign up for welfare, found housing for them etc.

should have been shut down 25 years ago, and everyone in it expelled

Reminds me again why George Bush is such a @******e

They've hijacked a great religion! - George W. Bush 43

And now Bush 43 and Obama are best friends 🤔🤔🤔

GWB is not the worst president ever but he is the biggest disappointment in a president I have ever experienced.
