This story is about Camp Ground Zero, but from July 25, long before the sniper problems began. Very interesting. John Mohammed a Muslim. Trained at a camp with ties to Al Qaeda. But I'm sure the "experts" will still tell us he's a right-wing gun nut and Bush voter.

Islamabama?

[anniegetyourgun]

He is neither. Just what everyone was expecting....a couple of angry black Jamaican guys!

As Neal Boortz calls it, Alabamistan.

Islamabama?

A+ and a gold star next to your name on the chart on the wall...

NY media making no mention of the Alabama terror training camp..........just focused on the Camden, NJ connection.

A sin of omission by the media......AGAIN.

[Thane_Banquo]

Check FOXnews. They're all over it. Interesting how the experts were so influenced by political correctness that they refused to make a connection to Islamic terrorism. They wanted to pin it on a white male all along because that is politically correct.

I'm not so sure these guys were just angry Jamaican guys...we need to see what develops. I would love to know Mohammed's contacts and travels in the past year--then we'll know. I do not think the money/extortion was the angle.

If they were just "angry black males," why shoot so many black people? I think they wanted all to think that it was an angry white male and to foment race war...similar to some of the white racialist thinking over the years.

It's time for these camps to be put out of business. If Muhammad trained at Camp Ground Zero, there won't be enough money in the world to satisfy judgments from the civil cases that will be filed in Md., Va. & D.C.

I'm so relieved it isn't a "white male". That's all we would have heard -- a million times. But of course we won't hear "black male" once.

[anniegetyourgun]

It's not a race thing, and it's not a religion thing....it's a criminal thing. These are joy-riding, attention-seeking common criminals (who also like robbery, drugs, extortion and fraud).

[VaMarVet]

...take advantage of America's gun laws, sources told ABCNEWS.

Not the last we will see of this.

[Fifth Business]

Allah-bama

"It's not a race thing, and it's not a religion thing..."

I disagree. There is nothing more of a race/religion thing than the Nation of Islam.

[anniegetyourgun]

Okay, I'll say it - their two angry black men on a crime rampage.

[TheLurkerX]

Watch them play down the terrorist angle. If he was there, then there are others around the country.

[OldFriend]

The 'experts' were ALL wrong........but that won't stop them from pontificating again.

[OldFriend]

I believe you are wrong on this one. It seems that they trained in an islamic terror camp. They were known to be sympathetic to the 9/11 hijackers.......

They may be criminals, but they had a focus for their hatred...AMERICA.

[Jerrybob]

You won't hear that on NBC, CBS, ABC or CNN.

Former Green Beret Major on Fox News this morning made an excellent, excellent observation as to why individuals such as the sniper are former military. Ever since the Clintons destroyed the military during their first six months in office, the military's hands have been tied as to "weeding out" undesirable individuals due to Political Correctness at the time. The military has had to exercise "tolerance" with all individuals who enter the military and this is the outcome of that Political Correctness. (This former Green Beret Major did not come out and nail Clinton directly, but one could draw that conclusion during his conversation).
