Maybe they still have troubling getting rid of their Y2K rations?
I heard about this from a LEO friend in Missouri.
This is a TIP of the iceberg...

Thanks for the ping and thank your friend for all of his hard,dangerous work.
"..At the time, Khaleel was a roving jack-of-all-trades in the American underground militant Islamic community. His name and Detroit address both appeared prominently in ledgers taken from the Al-Kifah Refugee Center in 1994, a critical international financial and strategic arm of al Qaeda. While in Orlando, Florida, Khaleel served as the regional director for the Columbia, Missouri-based Islamic African Relief Agency (IARA), an Islamic charity that had a multimillion-dollar USAID contract cancelled after the U.S. State Department determined that it was not in America's "national-security interests." In Columbia itself, Khaleel operated a remote-branch office on behalf of radical Saudi dissidents based in London who were closely aligned with Osama bin Laden. He even added a digitized copy of an infamous al Qaeda propaganda video titled "The Martyrs of Bosnia" to his own short-lived Internet website, salam.net.
But Ziyad Khaleel never forgot his Palestinian heritage. While he used his technical abilities to register websites on behalf of a host of militant Islamic groups in North Africa and the Middle East, he simultaneously rededicated himself to spreading word of the Palestinian cause. He enthusiastically lectured to Muslim student groups at the University of Missouri on behalf of the Islamic Association for Palestine (IAP), an organization based primarily in Dallas and Chicago and cofounded by Musa Abu Marzook. In a recent federal-court decision, a judge concluded that IAP has "distribute[d] information on behalf of Hamas" and, in a variety of other ways, "has acted in support of Hamas." While in Detroit, Khaleel collected advertising money for an IAP publication and shared common residential addresses in Detroit with both Ahmed Abu Marzook and, separately, another Palestinian associate of Uncle Musa: Mohammed Abu Dayyeh. And, of course, Khaleel happily administered the Hamas Internet domain for Marzook and his assorted henchmen..."
Amen, I believe almost every Mosque in this country has ties to terrorism... Just like every religion, they want their particular beliefs to be spread around the globe. The problem is their way of doing so is through terrorism carried out by the most extreme fringes of their faith. Until the less radical followers of Islam step up and do something about the radical leaders of their religion, this conflict will never end
Once the menace of Kerry is behind us, we need to rally to get out government to stop importing the menace of Islam into our homeland.
Well, looks like the Feds are weeding them out.
Thanks for the confirmation..

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) _ An investigation of a Missouri-based group accused of aiding terrorists has involved almost half the FBI's domestic field offices, a spokesman said.
The FBI office in Kansas City asked 26 of the bureau's 56 field offices to interview from 80 to 90 people as part of the investigation into the Islamic African Relief Agency-USA, FBI spokesman Jeff Lanza said Friday.
