Sorry, no transcript as of now. Video only. Worth the effort to view.
The video provides a look at this compound in the foothills above Fresno, CA. Pre 9-11, a Fresn County Sheriffs deputy was killed by a member of this peaceful Islamic community. The suspect (in the beginning trial phase still) broke into a empty nearby foothill home, when deputies arrived this guy was lying in the hallway floor with a rifle, and killed one deputy. This video is the first investigative reporting we have had on this Islamic community. The trail leads to FUQRA, a known terrorist group operating all over the world, and have several communities such as this one all over the USA. Here is an excerpt from an article of the Sacramento Bee...
(Published Sept. 30, 2001)
There is no evidence that the Fresno group has been involved in any terrorist activities, officials say.
The group, according to a federal source, is part of Fuqra, an organization whose name means "poverty" in Arabic and which has had compounds in several U.S. areas.
Some Fuqra members in other areas have been implicated in past years in domestic terrorist attacks, and the State Department has labeled the group, known formally as Jamaat ul-Fuqra, as "an Islamic sect that seeks to purify Islam through violence."
The group south of Fresno operates an 1,800-acre compound called the International Quranic Open University, which sits on the former site of the drug addiction recovery cult Synanon.
The compound, a series of mobile homes shaded by trees, also serves as a U-Haul rentals location. A resident there last week refused to talk to a reporter, referring inquiries to a Visalia attorney who did not respond to a message seeking information.
Authorities have been studying the compound since the Aug. 21 slaying of Fresno County Sheriff's Deputy Erik Telen. Officials charged 20-year-old Ramadan Abdur-Rauf Abdullah with murder in the killing, apparently stemming from a botched burglary at a rural home.
James Oppliger, Fresno County's chief deputy district attorney, said the suspect claimed he had been living at the compound seeking psychiatric treatment from the Quranic university.
Oppliger said he since has begun studying the group and its possible connections to other organizations.
(Zavia Books) is the bookstore for this Islamic compound. It is called Koranic Open University. Note the books being sold. One of them is prefaced by ( Sheik Mubarik Ali Shah Jilani [Gilani]) a known terrorist. The trail leads from Baladullah (actually Miramonte, CA) to Pakistan, where Sheik Gilani lives. He is the head of Fuqra.
Vegas is tight but 100 miles south is not. Laughlin, Kingman, Bullhead City, Needles. People can zip between 3 states in half an hour. Mojave County, AZ is as corrupt as any in Arkansas. It is a magnet for criminals. At the risk of being called down for profiling, there are likely suspects there.
It's interesting to speculate about the whole meaning within the "melting pot" metaphor.
1) If you look up "melting pot" in the encarta dictionary, it says:
"Melting Pot, image of the United States as a foundry that combines the different component metals—represented by immigrants from various countries—into the new metal, Americans.(But when you think about it that doesn't make much sense because most media liberals went to college and such people would certainly know that only _pure_ metals are good for most things and when metals are all junked together you get, well, junk... )
2) On the other hand, many Christians like to point out that the image of a "melting pot" is very similar to the image of a witch's cauldron and if you look up "caldron" in encarta you get:
1. pot for boiling: a large metal pot in which liquids are boiled(Seems much more to the point! A "melting pot" is what the old hags stand over, saying, Bubble, bubble, toil and trouble...)
2. dangerous and tense situation: a situation of great tension, unrest, and stressfulness "He is heading into a caldron in the House of Representatives." U.S. News & World Report (1998)

For the past 8 years we've had a clown, a buffoon, no... a CORRUPT clown buffoon, packing every key slot in D.C. with his corrupt/globalist lackeys. Eight long years of slackers, liars, and the elitist leftists. Virtually all this crap happened on the clown's watch. And he did nothing, right?
Now we're playing catch up. Bush is frantically moving key people into crucial slots and I firmly believe he is a good honest man who genuinely loves America and sees the dangers we're all facing.
I say, let's give him a chance to turn this nightmare around before we start picking on him.

Allah is our objective.
The messenger is our leader.
Quran is our law.
Jihad is our way.
Dying in the way of Allah is our highest hope.
Where one group seeks the destruction of another, "multi-cultures" can never peacefully coexist. This is America, Muhammed.
Israelis know.
I should have said, "And he did nothing - I think we can agree."
And for further clarification: I must admit I'm watching this administration with trepidation. Bush has been in office for 10 mths and frankly, I would have expected him to have gotten a handle on this situation sooner than Sept 12th.
I don't want you to think I'm naive.... I've been around long enough to know we must be vigilant. Maybe I'm just more patient than most...
I sent E mail to two people that live in Central CA (one is in law enforcement) with text of SacBee article and asked if they had specific knowledge of the Islamic compound.
Yeah. Political hacks feeding at the public trough. Like the Irish and the Italians here in Taxachusetts. What we need here is a hack holocaust!
I see real similarities between the WWII Japanese problem, and the Muslim problem.
We will be fortunate if the Muslim American problem proves no more serious than the Japanese American problem did. Actually, I've already read more reports of British and American Muslim traitors than there ever were of Japanese American traitors.
LET'S ROLL!
