If this anonymous piece is accurate, maybe he was just practicing damage control when he notified the authorities about his son's "extremism" -- as Creeping Sharia puts it, daddy "threw his son under the bus to protect himself and his own Islamist interests." But it looks as if Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab is a chip off the old block.
It's overheated, yes, and the English is faulty, but the most important question here is, Are these charges true? "Nigerian Muslim Jihadist and Al Qaida Ties Started Long Ago with Alhaji Mutallab,,.The Father As a Leader of Sharia Movement In Nigeria," from Africa Today, January 1 (thanks to Creeping Sharia):
Let the world not be fooled by the diguised of Northern Nigerian Religious extremism muslim as represented by their leaders like Yaradua Family, Mutallab Family, Sanusi Family, Bayero Families, Yerima family, Babangida family, Abdulsalam, family, Abacha, Jubril Aminu family, Atiku Family etc. and all of the emires and Ulamas and Northern Nigeria leaders and muslim families AND FOLLOWERS for they all have ties to Muslim Wahabism extremisism in Saudi Arabia, Sudan, Dubai, Yemen, Egytp etc and with the world jihadist movement and the world is just now waking up to it and the facts has been there for a long time and now they are exporting terrorism, jihadism, wahabism and Al Qaida to the world. They are all part and parcel of this problem because they planted this it but it is now known and let the world not be fooled.Like all of the muslim Northern Nigerian leaders, DR. Mutallab the father of the terrorist who is now shedding crocodile tears because he is one of the leaders who groom the Wahabism in Nigeria. Alhaji Dr. Mutallab the father also groomed Sharia law in Katsina State, Alhaji DR. Mutallab Groom Sharia in Kaduna State,Alhaji Dr. Mutallab groomed Sharia in Kano State, Most of the extremism Ulama in Northern Muslim Nigeria are benefactors of Alhaji Mutallab, Dr. Mutallab groomed extreme Muslim businesses in Saudi Arabia, He has extreme business in Dubai and he has extreme religious business in Yemen and he has business and property in Yemen. Alhaji Mutallab is the owner of the only Islamic Bank in Nigeria, Alhaji Mutallab has ties and interest in almost all the extremist muslim religious groups in Nigeria. He is a top leader of the Sharia movement COUNCIL in Nigeria. This guy is dangerous and he has gotten it hot and thats why he is running from pillar to post because he destroyed Nigeria with his corrupt ways and his muslim jihadist ideas for long time.
Dr. Mutallab the father of the terrorist was just covering his ass because he does not want to loose his investment in the Westen World and he does not want his family to be place on the no fly list as he wants to still enjoy his vacation and western women and western wine and drinks in Engalnd, Europe and America while still using extremism and corruption to maintain their corrupt hold in Nigeria by stealing from their people, thats thats why he reported his son to America, because he and most of the Muslim leaders in Nigeria knows more and they are part of the sponsors of world wide jihadism wahabism from Saudi Arabia, Sudan,Dubai, Yemen, Nigeria, Somalia, Pakistan etc....
Crude but it names names and from years of reading Jihadwatch it hangs together perfectly. As for dad? Nigerian + Major Banker + Muslim = Bought and paid for Saudi stooge.
An article from 2006:
Fitzgerald: Black Africa: The inattention, neglect, and betrayal should not be repeated
Black Africa is a battlefield between Islam and Christianity. Individual Christian missions, and are doing, have done a great deal of good. But Christians in black Africa need more support, tangible and visible, from the outside world. The spectacle of Muslims in Nigeria being allowed to throttle the Christians (Ibo and others) of the south during the Biafra War (1967-1969), with Egyptian pilots strafing Ibo villages and only two countries in the world (Ghana and Israel) willing to recognize an independent Biafra, should never be repeated. The forces of Biafra were fighting against the "Jihad" (Col. Ojukwu's own word in the Ahiara Declaration), while what was seen as the Christian world did nothing. It did not help the cause of Christianity in Africa.
The spectacle of the Western powers, held in Africa to represent Christianity, doing nothing or very little while, almost at will, Muslim Arabs continued to kill, or starve to death, by taking away their cattle or destroying their crops, the Christian and animist black Africans in the southern Sudan, and did this without any consequences over several decades, with nearly 2 million dead a result, also did not help the cause of Christianity in black Africa.
It is time for something dramatic to be done so that the Western world makes clear it will take the side of the Christians where they are under assault. Should a new Biafra be declared, the Western world should support and not shun it. In the Sudan, the Americans should -- but this will await, as so much awaits, removal of American forces from tarbaby Iraq -- enter, and smash in the first hour the capacity of the Sudanese government to conduct its renewed campaign of murder (so much for that "treaty") in the southern Sudan and its newer mass murder in Darfur. Then they should seize both the southern Sudan and Darfur and hold them, to protect the black African populations, until such time as a referendum on self-rule can be held without interference by the government in Khartoum.
The spectacle of American soldiers, having dealt a blow to whatever Sudanese army or air force exists, and having cleared Darfur overnight of Janjaweed (General Mattis might take particular pleasure in being put in charge of that), being warmly greeted by black Africans in both places, will be hard to disavow. What will the U.N. do? Deplore the protection of black Africans, either Muslim or non-Muslim, in Darfur and the south? And what will the E.U do? They can not, at this point, denounce the Americans for such an obviously humanitarian mission. It should galvanize support for, and encourage intelligent understanding of, the need for this kind of counter-Jihad.
In that event, what would the Arab League do? It has been foursquare behind the Sudanese government in Darfur, as it was in the southern Sudan -- or where it was not approving openly, then it was approving secretly. For who cares about non-Muslims being killed or Arab Muslims killing non-Arab Muslims? There was not a syllable of protest over the massacre of the Kurds by Arabs in Iraq. There was not a syllable of protest by the same Arab League over the use of the criminal law to punish the Berbers for using their own language and preserving their own culture for so many decades. (Recently, the Algerian government was forced by pressure from Berbers within Algeria to change those laws). What will the Arab League do? Declare the divine right of Arab Muslims to rule over and massacre non-Arab Muslims?
All that is being suggested is that word should get around that the Western world will no longer support countries or peoples equally. It is going to give its aid only to those who are not engaged now, or in a possible future, in Jihad, but to those countries where non-Muslims live, or where they currently withstand Muslim pressure, inside and out, and if given aid can make Christianity more attractive to those who might otherwise be tempted by Islam. The Infidel wold should eliminate economic, diplomatic, and other kinds of aid for countries where the jihad ideology is being spread. An example of a country deserving of special attention and support is Ethiopia. Its efforts to divert some of the headwaters of the Nile for irrigation projects should be encouraged, and threats by Egypt against Ethiopia taken note of, and Egypt put on notice. And that Jizyah to Egypt that the Americans keep sending, should end. Egypt is not our "ally" nor our "staunch ally." It is a country that officially and unofficially has done everything to promote anti-Americanism and antisemitism (government television beaming a series based on The Protocols of the Elders of Zion, for example), it has failed to meet any of its solemn commitments under the Camp David Accords, and Copts have been under attack for decades -- it was during the reign of Saint Sadat that Pope Shenouda II first went into self-imposed isolation as a protest against the government. Egypt needs to be taken off the American Infidel dole, until it changes its ways completely. Let all Muslim states be made aware that they are now on their own -- and they can go, hat in hand, as the "Palestinians" should be made to, to their fabulously rich Muslim brothers in the Gulf, and see how that works out. And that change in policy will be noticed throughout Africa, and not merely by Egypt's immediate neighbors.
Finally, in black Africa, more needs to be done to publicize the longest and most devastating trade in black Africans -- that of the Arabs. And that information should not only be spread in Africa, but in the Western world, since Islam's missionaries have deliberately targeted black populations on the assumption that they can continue to present Islam -- falsely -- as an appropriate vehicle for the expression of dismay with, or alienation from, the larger society. For Islam suppresses music and art and science. Islam does not encourage "social justice": good god, just look at Saudi Arabia, look at the zamindars and generals of Pakistan, look at the corrupt military rulers of Egypt and Algeria, the petty kings of Jordan and Morocco, the police-state of Tunisia -- one uninterrupted series of despotisms. It is also false that Islam discourages "materialism." Pay a visit to the souks of the Gulf statelets or Saudi Arabia -- shopping is all there is. There isn't anything else.
But more important, for helping to immunize important target populations for jihad subversion in the Western world, would be a clear and deliberate sign of Western protection of black African Christians from continued depredations, persecution, and even mass murder, by those pushing Islam in Africa. Black African Christians were abandoned to their fate in southern Nigeria and southern Sudan. That inattention, that neglect, that betrayal, should not be repeated.
I believe every word of it.
The father, chief of the Nigerian bank, sits very comfortably in Londonistan and hoodwinks the kufars into accepting sharia finance. I have no doubt whatsoever that he does his Islamic duty and finances the spread of Islam in Nigeria as well as in the UK.
Here's his wiki description:
Alhaji Umaru Abdul Mutallab (born December 15, 1939) is a Nigerian business and banking leader, and former government minister. He played a major role in introducing Islamic banking into Nigeria.
He was described by The Times in 2009 as being "one of the richest men in Africa", by The New York Times as "among Nigeria’s richest and most prominent men," by The Telegraph as being "one of Nigeria's most prominent bankers", and by The Guardian as being "one of the country's most respected businessmen"
The Source given on Modern Ghana (http://www.modernghana.com/news/257117/1/nigerian-muslim-jihadist-and-al-qaida-ties-started.html) is "Africa Today" which is an online news magazine at http://www.africatoday.com/ but I can't find any similar article there.
It wouldn't surprise if it was true, however.
Am I good or what?
This is what I predicted would happen a few days ago:
"In about two weeks this will be forgotten or reinterpreted as a taqqiya operation by the father who wanted to deceive the naive infidels."
source://www.jihadwatch.org/2009/12/flight-253-jihadist-was-nicknamed-islamic-scholarfather-of-flight-253-jihadist-warned-us-about-him-h.html#comments
"Nigeria Muslim North leaderhip all of them have imported Wahabism type of muslim sect from Saudi Arabia, Iran, Dubai, Sudan and Yemen for many years now into Nigeria. Saudi Arabia Muslim Wahabism have a strong foot hold in Nigeria now becaue most of the mosques and religious institutions in Nigeria have links to Saudi Arabia Wahabism sects religious extremism program and no wonder the constant religious riots in Nigeria has the backing of the Wahabism linke to it." - from Africa Today
This is the reality of Africa that Mohamedism has insinuated itself through Saudi oil money and Wahabi expansionism into the whole fabric of African violence politics. This has a twofold effect of introducing the socially restrictive Arab-supremacy legal system, the Sharia, while at the same time stoking wars between tribal groups, where almost always one side or both is Islamic, to further destabilize the political structure based on European constitutional laws to ease the way for Sharia dominance. What is tragically laughable about this perverse process is the overt corruption this system engenders, so the likes of that old Mutullab can gain power and slide in Sharia, while at the same time enjoy all that power in Africa represents: women, fancy automobiles, private airplanes, booz, more women, lots of fawning suplicants who will do anything to curry favor, big bank accounts, more booz and women, especially Western women. So for the FLT 253 bomber to have spawned from the loins of this Black African lion of Islamic virtues, ala Sharia, who while enjoying all the decadent pleasures of that 'devil' West produced a simpleton son, Umar Farouk, who tipped the cards of Jihad too soon, and thus throws that same simpleton to the wolves. Such is the African post-colonialism African reality. Sharia, including Sharia finance, is part of the whole deal, a neo-colonialism, again.
It could have taken a better turn, had there been some forethought to what the Europeans left behind, but since they fled for their lives leaving behind vestiges of civilization, mostly rail road and building infrastructure, Africa is reverting back to what it was when Arab slavers criss-crossed the continent for their evil trade: slavery trade to capture the unweary into forced servitude for the pleasure of their sexual masters, who also worked them to death, or killed their unwanted offsprings. It should have been better. The tragedy of the Black Continent is not a legacy of European colonialism, bad that it was, it is a legacy of post-European corruption and odious Sharia enslavement of the people, again. It could have been better, they deserved better.
The jihadi assassin in Denmark who tried to murder the Danish cartoonist Kurt Westergaard is now being said to be linked to al-Qaeda affiliated groups in Somalia. Oh the joys of multiculturalism and unrestricted third world immigration.
would this good Nigerian banker resulting turning of his islamic son cause him to be targeted by other islamists?
I was wondering about the curious actions of a father turning in his own son like this, even if he was only one among many spoiled brat sons like OBL. Something smelled very fishy about this story from the very start, and even with the additional information above it still smells fishy. Will wait for further developments in the story...
Dirty Daddy Dearest???
This guy was willing to kill himself and others for the sake of an imperialistic religion that was imposed on his countrymen by Arab slave masters.Boy,aren't you ashamed that your ripped-up underwear is being shown all over the world?And you didn't get your 72 virgins.
Muslims lie.
Not really, unless you think giving a Moslem(the father) the benefit of the doubt is a foolish thing? It seems that it might very well be if the article is at all accurate.
Here's an article from the Times of London, which ends with this:
"His father said that he was flying from his home to meet Nigerian security officials to talk about his son...
“I am really disturbed. I would not want to say anything at the moment until I put myself together . . . I have been summoned by the Nigerian security and I am on my way to answer the call,” he said.
.................
Daddy may well have been giving himself 'plausible deniability' by alerting the US Embassy ahead of time.
We also learn that Junior defended the attacks of 9/11 and admired the Taliban—all years before he boarded an American airplane with his undies packed with explosives.
http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/world/us_and_americas/article6969075.ece
Why am I not surprised. Nigerian population is split almost 50/50 Christians and Muslims, but guesss which group is treated like a minority and being mistreated, persecuted, adn killed? I rest my case, religion of PEACE!!!!
there could be many reasons,besides the ones mentioned by R.S.
for daddy jihadist's reporting;one could be that he knew his
boy is not too bright and will get caught;so better get some points for stealth jihad.
this diaper-bomber and the shoe-bomber are examples of dumb
criminals;the light never turned on in their brains that they
have passed through all the security checks and now they are on the plane and they might as well get their explosives out of shoe or underwear.
yeah that what I said would happen on jwatch since "Muslims are taught and ordered to lie to infidels"
What are you not getting here, bud? everyone else got on the Taqqiya train.
I too guessed something amiss re this father's actions. I just hope this islamisation of Nigeria will be thoroughly exposed across the world. Having lived in Nigeria and spoken to Christian Nigerians about the rampant islamisation of the North their view was at that time, they will never do that to us in the South, 'we will fight to the death.' When I arrived in Nigeria 7 states were under sharia,two years later 13 states had sharia imposed on them by force. When will the world wake up to what is going on.
The fact that Xmas Condom Bomber was the son of a Sharia-spreading rich daddy should come to no surprise to anybody who knows Islam's history. What does history teach about Islam? That it's like a mental AIDS infection, and like all infections, to stop it from spreading you have to disinfect the source. No, not the Quran, Mecca. After 9/11, the U.S. had the right and duty to nuke Mecca, since the terrorists came from there, and their shots are called from there, and what is radical Islam other than an attempt to continue the original program of spreading Sharia's turf outward from Mecca? Once Mecca's gone, Allah will be proved to be an impotent fraud, causing the worldwide Muslim community to come unglued, after which they will hopefully disintegrate into individuals who will rejoin the human race and junk their Qurans. Ding dong, the Witch is dead, go see that Wizard of Oz flick again and check back with me.
