When the US media tells the American sheeple on the IDIOT BOX, that Islam is the fastest growing religion in the USA they fail to mention this tidbit demographic: the majority of its' convert are CRIMINALS in PRISON, the majority of whom are black and identify with Islam as a way to revolt against the 'system' that landed their asses in the slammer to begin with!!

Oops.. wait a minute, the president said Islam is a religion of peace.

Sorry.

What is it with black criminals ( in this case, 1/2 black ) becoming Moslems in prison ?

Malcom X was a pimp and a petty criminal, before joining the NOI .

Now, this is also happening in England !

Crazy Johnny Jihad, decided to become a Muslim and a jihadists, AFTER reading Malcom's bio !

Perhaps that book should be banned and burned ( and I am against such things; however, it looks as though this may be the ONLY way to cut back on terrorism ) and ALL religious conversions , forbidden to those in jails.

go to www.cryptome.or/usa-v-ubl-dt.htm & read the court transcript of the USA vs. Osama bin Laden, Federal Court New York, Feb of this year. His operatives were on trial for attempting to purchase Uranium.

http://cryptome.org A treasure trove of public documents & FOIA work from many sources. http:.//cryptome.org/usa-v-ubl-dt.htm should be correct.

Do we know yet whether Reid had a family that could have been paid off for his action? For whatever reason, he does seem to have been very determined to go through with the plot.

Now, since another fact not often mentioned is that the whites who join Aryan Brotherhood in prison do it for self protection then it might be as well that this is the reason for the blacks as well.

Those who insist on brutalization of prisons, judicial system and the society in general "gain" for us all the spread of brutal movements and organisations. And ths solution those smart reformers will propose will be even more brutality and more prisons.

I think we need an amendment to the constitution making conversion to Islam high treason.

Then maybe we should have obliged him...after capture, he should have been taken onto the tarmac, and his shoes should have been detonated...with him in them.

A thorough background check of the person named in the passport, whose photo corresponded to the person presenting it, revealed no anomalies, officials said.

Could anyone answer this question please? --

It was my understanding that persons with a criminal record were not allowed into the United States. In Canada, people with convictions work very hard to get the records forgiven or expunged so that they can cross the border again. How can this guy - who was IN PRISON hold a passport?

We need to view conversion to Islam like we would conversion to Nazism. Same difference except Nazism isn't a big threat right now.

This Reid guy was in the same mosque with Zacarias Moussaoui who would have been a 9-11 hijacker, but couldn't make the trip thanks to an alert American flight school instructor who put the incompetent FBI onto him.

He was arrested for INS violations before 9-11. The FBI didn't search Moussaoui's apartment until after 9-11.

"The Times newspaper said the mosque was also attended by Zacarias Moussaoui, who faces conspiracy charges in the United States in connection with the Sept. 11 attacks in which hijacks jets were used in attacks on New York and Washington." -Tom
