Dar Al-Hijrah Hosts Fundraiser For “Virginia Jihad” Cell Member; U.S. Muslim Brotherhood Leader Featured Speaker

(This Islamic Center in Falls Church, VA is a well-known hub for Jihadis both here in the US as well as those from abroad. Spiritual home of the Fort Hood shooter and his "Spiritual Advisor, Anwar al-Awlaki, now head of Al Qaeda in Yemen.)

Dar Al-Hijrah is tightly tied to the U.S. Muslim Brotherhood. According to the Dar Al-Hijra web site, four of the nine board members must include the current Secretary General of Islamic Society of North America (ISNA), the current President of Muslim Arab Youth Association (MAYA), the current General Manager of North American Islamic Trust (NAIT) , and the current President of Muslim American Society (MAS). (Both MAYA and NAIT are components of ISNA.) In 2004, the Washington Post reported on the ties between Dar Al-Hijra and the MAS, a U.S. Muslim Brotherhood group close to the Egyptian organization. Anwar al-Awlaki, the radical imam with whom the Fort Hood shooter had been in contact, had been Imam of Dar Al-Hijrah to prior to 911 and in July 2005 Shaker Elsayed, the former secretary-general of the MAS was appointed as the Dar Al Hijrah imam. The former imam left to become the executive director of the Fiqh Council of North America, affiliated with ISNA.

(Other)Individuals convicted/indicted in terrorism-related cases that have been known to have attended Dar Al-Hijrah include:
Abdurrahman Alamoudi, (convicted in plot assassinate Crown Prince Abdullah of Saudi Arabia)
Mousa Abu Marzook (indicted Hamas political leader)
Ismail Elbarasse (convicted of obstruction of justice in Hamas financing case)
Abdelhaleem Ashqar (convicted of obstruction of justice in Hamas financing case)
Randall “Ismail” Royer (convicted member of the Virginia Jihad Network)
Ahmed Omar Abu Ali (al-Qaida operative convicted of plotting to assassinate President Bush)
Two of the 9/11 hijackers, Nawaf al-Hazmi and Hani Hanjour were also known to have attended Dar Al-Hijrah.

Something not right? Go with your gut. Report it.

All they care about is personal power, and it never mattered who they sold the country out to to achieve it whether it be Red China or the Muslim Sheiks.

That's right....so how can we stop it?....Looks "too big to fail" as their tentacles are just everywhere!...and that worldwide.

[caww]

Thanks for ping....wow..mesta certainly followed the trail!

[MestaMachine]

Been watching. Didn’t hear about it until I got back here a few minutes ago. Here we go again.

[MestaMachine]

What is here doesn’t even begin to scratch the surface. It would take volumes to explain who, what, where, and when. But the fact that it was planned, I am absolutely positive of.

[caww]

Thanks for article thouworm and links...have saved for later view tomorrow...we are in so much trouble in our country....very scary!

[thouworm]

Your welcome. We will see how it plays out [gets spun], but I thought I’d post an “as it was happening” post here.

Already, FEDS: The Times Square car bomb does NOT appear to be terrorism...

And yet from Freeper jimbo123 (who lives in NYC):

The car bomb was parked outside the entrance of MTV Networks, the parent company of Comedy Central.

The Lion King and Comedy Central/MTV Networks are in the same building 1515 Broadway. The entrances to the theatre and the office building are right next to each other.
~~~~~~~~~

Also, now reported that there was wiring leading out of the car

Best report so far here:
http://www.nydailynews.com/ny_local/2010/05/01/2010-05-01_times_square_evacuated_after_smoking_vehicle_sparks_emergency_probe.html

But of course, with all the information collected thus far, the FEDS can confidently say “The Times Square car bomb does NOT appear to be terrorism...”

When the BHO adm eliminated all of those terrorism-related politically incorrect words, did they also redefine the word “terrorism” ?

[caww]

Initially someone said they say a muslim running from the vehicle....plus there are other cameras there so perhaps they have yet to check those. We know they'll spin this in order not to alarm folks...and yes, terrorists isn't in the vocabulary of this administration unless they live overseas.

[RegulatorCountry]

Initially someone said they say a muslim running from the vehicle

If that is what a witness said, then they said it. But, there is no "Muslim" appearance. There are Muslims of every identifiable racial characteristic. Muslims are predominantly associated with being of Mideastern appearance. Perhaps this is what the witness intended to convey.

[thouworm]

I saw that but didn’t post. Someone said that someone said, etc... No credible source that I have seen has come forward yet that can give any description whatsoever of the perp.

[caww]

Bloomberg said they will be checking other cameras which will take hours...and that “so far no-one was seen running away but that doesn’t mean there won’t be”

Yes, you’re right...Mid-eastern would be the correct way of saying this if they were a muslim from the mid-east.

[thouworm]

“Bloomberg said they will be checking other cameras which will take hours...and that “so far no-one was seen running away...”

That’s odd....because

“Two female cops patrolling the area noticed a man fumbling with something in the back of a Nissan SUV parked on the southwest corner of 45th St. and Broadway about 7 p.m. The man saw the officers looking and took off running.”

http://www.nydailynews.com/ny_local/2010/05/01/2010-05-01_times_square_evacuated_after_smoking_vehicle_sparks_emergency_probe.html

They may have been too far away to give any kind of description, but they saw a man running, according to this report.
~~~~~~~~~~~~

Also now from other thread -— lol:

FBI releases statement — says Joint Terrorism Task Force is in Times Square - command post set up.
~~~~~~~~~

Good to see they are proactively setting up a Joint Terrorism Task Force command post for an incident they do not think appears to be terror related.

[caww]

“......setting up a Joint Terrorism Task Force command post for an incident they do not think appears to be terror related”.......

Ha! Sounds like Washington talk doesn’t it. Ha!...Yes, I saw on those two seeing someone run...I actully think once they go thru the camera films they’ll have an idea of who ...not that we’ll ever be told but they’ll likely know.

[thouworm]

sooo way off topic, but this photo is too arresting not to post:

US Army photo by Staff Sgt. Horace Murray

Staff Sergeant Horace Murray, 982nd Signal Company (COMCAM), US Army Reserve, from Wilson, North Carolina.

Now Dah is a very small village north-west of Bagram AFB in Afghanistan, and it's virtually invisible on the internet except for photographs by American soldiers, distributing humanitarian assistance or "engaging key leaders," as above, April 20, 2010.

Pakistani Taliban Claim Credit for Failed NYC Times Square Car Bombing
The Long War Journal ^ | Sunday, May 2, 2010 | Bill Roggio

Posted on Sunday, May 02, 2010 12:09:28 PM by kristinn

A top Pakistani Taliban commander took credit for yesterday’s failed car bomb attack in New York City.

Qari Hussain Mehsud, the top bomb maker for the Movement of the Taliban in Pakistan, said he takes “fully responsibility for the recent attack in the USA.” Qari Hussain made the claim on an audiotape accompanied by images that was released on a YouTube website that calls itself the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan News Channel.

The tape has yet to be verified, but US intelligence officials contacted by The Long War Journal believe it is legitimate. The Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan News Channel on YouTube was created on April 30. Officials believe it was created to announce the Times Square attack, and Qari Hussain’s statement was pre-recorded.

“This attack is a revenge for the great & valuable martyred leaders of mujahideen,” Qari Hussain said. He listed Baitullah Mehsud, the former leader of the Pakistani Taliban who was killed in a Predator strike in August 2009, and Abu Omar al Baghdadi, the former leader of al Qaeda Islamic State of Iraq who was killed by Iraqi forces in mid-April. And although he was not mentioned, an image of Abu Ayyub al Masri, the leader of al Qaeda in Iraq, was also displayed in the images accompanying the audiotape.

Qari Hussain also said the failed attack was “revenge for the Global American interference & terrorism in Muslim countries, especially in Pakistan for Lal Masjid operation,” a reference to the July 2008 Pakistani military assault on Islamists holed up in the Red Mosque in Islamabad, as well as Predator strikes in Pakistan’s tribal areas and the arrest and detention of Pakistani scientist Aifa Siddique.

Vudeo of claim:

Note this was PRERECORDED. They fully expected it to go off and had already prepared thei statement the day before.

That’s surprising about San Diego...

It’s like a sport fishing event of catch-and-release the criminal foreign invaders.
