Chuckle. The Saffron Plan.
I my not be the one I'm thinking of if this is the site.
that is the one near me, bc that is my zipcode.
The Institute of Islamic and Arabic Sciences in America is the largest source of Saudi hate literature in the Washington area. The institute is located at 8500 Hilltop Road, Fairfax, Va. 22031, a branch of Imam Muhammad bin Sa’ud University in Riyadh, the main religious university in the country, and is managed and staffed by Saudi diplomats. The Institute practices gender segregation against its women students who are confined to a small part of the building and forced to use a back entrance. It also practices religious supremacy and bars Shi’a students, teachers, and books. Shi’a Muslims make up 20% of Saudi Arabia but their beliefs are taught as Jewish manipulations not as an Islamic tradition. The Institute teaches Wahhabi Islam to over 400 students, tuition free, mainly training them to serve as imams in U.S. mosques, i.e. as community leaders infected with extremism.
The head of the U.S. branch is a Saudi diplomat, Dr. Ahmed Turkistani. The university has six branches outside Saudi Arabia that annually cost the country over $100 million, and over 60 institutes in the country in addition to four campuses.
I wonder if one has something to do w/ the other????
Well, I just checked on foxnews.com

Yeah, but for whatever reason (having never thoroughly looked at the district boundaries) I thought you were under Moron's reign of terror.
Only 10,000 to go.
There are several parts to this Joint Terrorism Task Force (search) investigation into the Institute of Islamic and Arabic Sciences in America. The key part is a probe into the possibility of terrorism financing.
Another part is the search for evidence that people associated with the organization may be helping — and perhaps harboring — illegal aliens. The search warrant was "under court seal," which means it was not to be made public.
Officials say that the investigation was still in the early stage, with no individual target as yet.
That says it all, doesn't it. The lines are drawn, and as obvious as they can be.
well it is good they are rooting them out of there, bc i have always been suspicious of the place. you go past on early sunday AM and it is filled with taxis of every stripe. seeing it written up in Perle's book was the clincher. we always have referred to it as the Islamic Jihad Center.
I heard that it was raided back after 9/11 too.
Addressing the session, Dr Ahmed Turkistani, the associated professor at Riyadh-base Imam Mohammed bin Saud Islamic University, criticized those in the West who try to link Islam with terrorism. He noted Islam, which is the religion of justice and equality, has nothing to do with terrorism. 'The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia was a victim of terror acts even before the incidents of Sept 11, 2001, he said, and added: 'Nothing can justify the biased campaign being launched against the Kingdom following the incidents of Sept 11'. Dr Turkistani made it clear that the call of Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulwahab was a reformatory call for correcting wrong concepts about Islam.
There's no doubt in my mind that northern Virginia is a haven for Islamic terrorists, which you'd sort of expect given the location of the Pentagon and the capital and everything.
