It's Jihad, Stupid: Three "Soldiers of Allah" Explain To The Politically Correct
Atlas Shrugs and The Rubin Report ^ | 11-16-09 | Barry Rubin

"Soldier of Allah" NIDAL MALIK HASAN

How do we know that the attack at Fort Hood was an act of Islamist terrorism? Simple, Major Nidal Hassan told us so.

Hasan is the first terrorist in history to give an academic lecture explaining why he was about to attack. Yet that still isn’t enough for too many people—including the president of the United States--to understand that the murderous assault at Fort Hood was a Jihad attack.
Hisan's Powerpoint Presentation on Jihad


"Soldier of Allah" SHEIKH MUBARAK GILANI

Gilani, whose organizations oversee 35 jihadist training camps in 22 states in America, is clear about his goals:

"We are not fighting so that the enemy recognizes us and offers something. We are fighting to destroy the enemy. We are dealing with evil at its roots and its roots are America."

“Act like you’re a friend, then kill him just like from the book.”

Gilani calls his members, “Soldiers of Allah,”

Gilani has also drawn a picture for the Obama Administration, Congress, and Eric Holder's DOJ.

"Soldier of Allah" ANWAR AL AWLAKI

Another homegrown jihadist, Awlaki was the infamous spiritual advisor to two 9/11 terrorists and Nidal Malik Hasan, whom he openly praised as a "hero" for his genocidal jihad on unarmed soldiers at Fort Hood.

The admiration was mutual. "One fellow Muslim officer at the base told the Daily Telegraph that the shooting suspect's eyes "lit up" when gushing about Awlaki's teachings." SOURCE

"Whenever you see the word terrorist, replace it with the word mujahid," he says on the video. "Whenever you see the word terrorism, replace it with the word jihad."

[NOTE: Awlaki does NOT tell his followers to replace the word "terrorism" with "man-made disasters," but with the word "JIHAD."]

"Guys like Anwar al Awlaki provide do-it-yourself Islam," Shaikh told the Star. "He's building a fantasy and then pushing them over the edge. It appeals at a very basic level. It's like sheep food and they gobble it up."

In a recent report for ABC, Brian Ross notes that “Awlaki addresses his followers as ‘soldiers of allah’, the SOAs." SOURCE

Liberals have a way of sticking their heads in the sand - putting their hands over their eyes, and putting their hands over their eyes. There is NOTHING so obvious that they can't block it from awareness...

Thanks for the ping.

One of those compounds was called Trout Creek Pass and was located near Buena Vista, Colorado. In 1989, Colorado police raided a storage locker rented by the disciples of Sheikh Gilani's. What they found was shocking. Here is a partial list of the items:

Ten handguns and silencers

40 pounds of explosives

Target-practice silhouettes pierced with bullet holes

3 large pipe bombs, fused and ready to explode

A manual on "Guerilla Warfare"

AK 47s

6,000 rounds of ammo

Bomb-making instructions

Blank birth certificates and Social Security cards

Perhaps most alarming, Colorado law enforcement officials also found "Targeting Packets," which were described as assassination papers on selected individuals. One of those targeted individuals was a rival Muslim cleric in Tucson, Arizona, named Rashad Khalifa.

Days after discovering the four-page plan to murder the cleric, Khalifa was lying in a pool of blood, dead after being stabbed 17 times. The assassination was a "carbon copy" of the handwritten plan found in the Colorado storage locker.

Two individuals would later be convicted in his murder, James D. Williams and Nicholas Edward Flinton.

Both were arrested years after the crime, in 1996. Williams was arrested in Lynchburg, Va. Flinton was arrested in South Carolina after hiding out for five years in a al-Fuqra camp in Meherrin, VA. The Meherrin terrorist compound sits just 35 miles from the al-Fuqra camp in Red House, VA.

It's sad that Janet Napolitano is too busy looking for the Vast Right Wing Conspiracy to look into this...

ATTY ANDREW McCARTHY (prosecuter of the "Blind Sheik") LAYS DOWN THE LAW

From Andrew McCarthy, the National Review journalist and attorney who led the team that convicted Omar Abdel Rahman, the “Blind Sheikh.” "In essence, we prosecuted him for inciting terrorism­"

The word incomprehensible does not do justice to the FBI’s conclusion that jihadist saboteur Nidal Hasan’s numerous communications with jihadist imam Anwar al-Awlaki were either (a) not significant enough to warrant further investigation or (b) significant but immune from further investigation on First Amendment grounds.

The first possibility would not pass the laugh test if this were a laughing matter. Anonymous government officials have suggested that the substance of the conversations was innocuous. That remains to be seen — we can’t know until we learn exactly what was said, how it was acted on, who else may have been in the loop, and so on.

But even if you buy the innocent-substance theory (I don’t), the occurrence of the communications — between an Islamist infiltrator in our armed forces and a known al-Qaeda recruiter who ministered to some of the 9/11 hijackers — could not be more significant. The mere circumstances were more than enough to turn up the investigative heat.

That’s so palpable that we must worry that about the second possibility: That the FBI and the Justice Department have convinced themselves that the Constitution really is a suicide pact — that a mainstream construction of Islam, calling for our demise as a free people, is somehow insulated from inquiry because we don’t want to confront the stubborn fact that Islamist terror is instigated by Islamic doctrine.

Journalism in the last week has been a feast of fables about Islam, libels about military culture, and gut-wrenching accounts of sorrow and heroism. But the most disturbing thing I’ve read is Ron Kessler’s Newsmax column. It addressed little not already known about the mass murder, but Ron has singularly good sources in the FBI. He provides a window into Bureau thinking that makes the mind reel.

Besides grossly low-balling the number of U.S. mosques that propagate Islamist ideology — the Feebs say it’s about 10 percent of 2,000 mosques; it’s actually about six to eight times that amount — a top FBI counterterrorism official told Kessler:

"Those who actively support extremist causes, say America is evil and deserves what it gets, and celebrate the death of soldiers, know they may come to our attention. So they don’t do it as openly now . . . . There was much more of that [before 9/11] because all of it was considered by Justice Department guidelines to be purely protected speech. We do not have incitement laws in America, but once an imam facilitates someone else taking action, he has crossed the line into material support and becomes our business."

Where to begin? Almost 17 years ago, after the Trade Center was bombed, the Justice Department did not believe a Muslim cleric had to “cross the line into material support” before he became the FBI’s business. Indeed, there were no “material support” laws until 1996. In 1995, as detailed in Willful Blindness, I led the team that convicted Omar Abdel Rahman, the “Blind Sheikh.” In essence, we prosecuted him for inciting terrorism­ — the thing the senior official tells Kessler isn’t a crime.

Specifically, the Blind Sheikh was convicted of (among other things) soliciting an attack against a U.S. military installation (like Hasan just committed) and soliciting the murder of Egyptian president Hosni Mubarak.

Solicitation is still a federal crime — and there’s no requirement that the incitement actually lead to a terrorist act.

Moreover, even before anyone in America ever heard of al-Qaeda — even before there was a 9/11, or bombings of Khobar Towers, the U.S. embassies in eastern Africa, and the U.S.S. Cole — some of us realized that terrorists fueled by viscerally anti-American Islamist ideology, were at war with the United States. And guess what? There’s a statute for that, too: The Civil War–era seditious-conspiracy law makes the waging of such a terror campaign a 20-year felony. And there’s no carve-out for imams.

How was the Blind Sheikh convicted? By presenting to the jury his fiery sermons and private meetings with the faithful, often in mosques where he urged barbarous strikes against America, swaddled in accurate quotations of the Koran and other Muslim scripture. Of course, he claimed that such exhortations were protected speech. That is, he made exactly the same arguments the Islamist Left has spent the last eight years beating into the country, including into the Justice Department and the FBI. But back in 1995, those arguments were seen for the nonsense that they were.

There is no bar to the use of speech as evidence. The First Amendment generally prohibits the criminalization of speech itself — i.e., the act of communicating. But settled law holds that when prosecutors use your speech to prove crimes, there is no First Amendment violation. When the mafia boss tells the button-man “Whack him!” he doesn't get to lodge a First Amendment objection to the introduction of that statement at his murder trial. He’s not being tried for saying “Whack him!” He’s being tried for murder. The statement is evidence.

Nor does the principle change just because the speech happens to implicate religion. In America, you can believe whatever you want, but your actions must be lawful. Not surprisingly, the Blind Sheikh contended that his incitements to terror were beyond prosecution because he was practicing his religion: Specifically, he claimed he had simply been performing the traditional role of an Islamic cleric called on to determine whether proposed courses of conduct (in this instance, mass-murder plots) were permissible under Islamic law.

Fourteen years ago, that contention was properly seen as frivolous. In America, we are not under sharia law — not yet. There is no religious exception for violent acts, conspiracies, and incitements to violence that violate American law.

So what has happened? Why did we know these rudimentary, commonsense principles in the Nineties but not now? Because incitement explodes the government’s “religion of peace” narrative. The incitement to Islamist terror is Islamic scripture. The Blind Shiekh was not a hypnotist or a particularly compelling speaker. His authority over terrorist organizations was rooted exclusively in his acknowledged mastery of sharia. Islamic scripture was the source of his power over Muslims.

To concede this would be to concede the obvious but unspeakable fact that there is a nexus between Islam and terror. That would harpoon the lovey-dovey dream that Islam and Western democracy are perfectly compatible. It would upset Muslims — especially the well-organized, deep-pocketed Islamic grievance industry.

Today’s hip, progressive FBI, like Gen. George Casey’s modern, slavishly “diverse” military, doesn’t want to upset Muslims. Besides souring State Department cocktail parties and drying up funding for presidential libraries, upsetting Muslims would put a damper on our government’s lavish “Islamic outreach” efforts. These initiatives are premised on the delusion that we’ll stop more terror by having unindicted co-conspirators like CAIR teach Islamic “sensitivity” to our agents than by turning our agents loose to investigate CAIR and its ilk.

So the FBI ignores the significance of a terrorist cleric’s influence over an unabashed Islamist in our midst. After all, their contacts seemed to be religious in nature. We’re told, moreover, that we can’t do anything about the anti-American vitriol oozing out of Islamist mosques under the guidance of our friends the Saudis. After all, the vitriol hasn’t yet “crossed the line into material support.” By the time it does, you might have 13 corpses to tend to, but at least there will be lots to talk about at the next outreach conference — or the next time the attorney general decides to speak at a CAIR-fest.

The post-9/11 era was supposed to be about knocking down walls that obstructed effective counterterrorism. But behold the new wall, more insidious than its suicidal Nineties forerunner: the arbitrary barrier separating terrorism from “protected” incitement — the cagey, generalized, non-specific jihadist rhetoric that is the Islamist cleric’s stock-in-trade.

Aside from not being required by law, this new wall will usually mean you can't go after the worst actors (the Islamic authorities and the terrorists they inspire) until after an attack has happened and Americans have been killed.

In other words, be prepared for more Fort Hoods. We’re not in September 10 America. We’ve managed to land in a much more dangerous place.

Those who know, know even THIS number is lowball. Any building, parkinglot, or leafy canopied meeting place in some deep woods is rife with jihadis, and don’t let anyone tell you differently.
This is their LAW. They will do what they are told or they will die themselves. Period.

Thank you; you started it :-). Please read all of McCarthy in Post #46.

He’s been there, done that, and he’s steamed the law is not being enforced today. As much as it is imporant to uncover the jihad ties, a fire needs to be lit under American citizens to demand from its Government (our elected Public SERVANTS) enforcement of the laws that protect Americans against jihadist imans. .

This is an excellent summary of where the elite have traveled in political correctness to now permit open calls nad stated plans for attacking the US. We are back to post 911 mentalities except now it is the American ctizens who are named terrorists by homeland security based upon such “extremist” ideals like the constitution.

You are correct that it is worse now. The politically correct have demanded and recieved that Muslims be placed in all government positions of security and power in their bizarre race quota, non-discrimination game. Diversity demands no one dis the Muslim Koran talk culture advocating for terrorism against Americans and Jooooos.

Thanks for connecting all those dots. Political correctness and tribal hate diversity are a death pact the elite have sworn to uphold while they ignore the constitution and it’s ideals, cultures and behaviors.

American (Constitutionalist) citizens are terrorists, and terrorists are protected "citizens."

Only a collective institutional madness could have come up with such a twisted, malevolent thought.

Bingo. The soldiers I know will tell you you can’t ever, EVER trust them. They’ll laugh and joke with you during the day- lie to you with a smile- and come back at night to kill you.

It’s the way they think.

We here, we Citizens of the United States of America are under sustained attack on two worldwide fronts and we are kept so off balance we don’t know who is firing the shots.
On one hand, we have a worldwide cabal that is looting our treasury, stealing the food from our mouths, and stealing our homes and property out from under us.
On the other hand, we have a worldwide attack from a lunatic swarm whose “religion” is some deluded maniac’s horror fantasy written and obeyed as gospel.
Both are consuming us. Both are sapping our life and liberty to the point of no return.
This is going to get bloody. I don’t see any way to escape it now.
Ten years ago, I told a friend in another country which shall remain nameless, that if they opened their doors to ONE muslim, they would be overrun in the blink of an eye.
He did not believe me.
They have ONE fairly large city. It was a beautiful and prosperous city ten years ago. Now, women cannot walk the streets even in broad daylight because of fears of being raped and gangraped by gangs of muslim men. Police have no-go zones because of the fear of being mutilated just for being there.
The welfare roles there have swelled to overflowing because these people do not work, but their birthrate is 5 to 10 times higher than other segments of the population. The taxes have increased to punishing proportions because of this influx. They contribute nothing.
Drug crime is through the roof. Crime in general is through the roof, but they can’t arrest or jail the perpetrators without massive unrest.
Muslims have taken over their main college campus.
A terrorist has taken up residence there and when they tried to deport him they could NOT for fear of what his followers would do to the country at large.
It is a much smaller country than ours, but it only took ten years there. They have been coming here for decades.

Cansomeone post a list of the addresses of all known Muslim training camps across the USA?

This would be a start.

We need to organize an onformational handle on these guys, the goivernment won;t do it, and has prevented a Congressional Probe. CONGRESS KNOWS OF THIS THREAT.People like Leiberman want it public.Because they can’t we need to do something, or the next thing you know, assassinationa nd suicide bombers will be hitting us and we won’t know even how to keep ourselves safe, the FBI is mum.

Fort Hood and Obamas reaction to it are a signal to Patriots.

THE CITIZENS OF THE USA ARE CANNON FODDER. TERRORISM IS ONLY A CRIME. SINCE IT IS ONLY A CRIME NOW, WE CITIZENS HAVE A DISTINCT RIGHT OF SELF DEFENCE TO ANY CRIME.

LETS EXERCISE THAT RIGHT BY PREPARING FOR THE WORST WHILE HOPING IT NEVER HAPPENS.

We need a list, but unfortunately I do not have the time to do it, or I would. ANYONE?

See post #19 & 21. The short answer to your question is that it does not exists. If it is anywhere, it is in that CAN video, but I have looked at length online for the list and can only come up with about 1/3 of the locations.

I have also tried to post the map cited in that post url and it has disappeared twice.
