Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

UK Muslim charged with trying to establish jihad training camp in US

Aswat“In a letter faxed to Aswat urging him to travel to Bly, one of Hamza’s sympathizers said the camp ‘looks just like Afghanistan.'” How wonderful!

“Suspected schizophrenic terrorist mumbles ‘not guilty’ in support of jihadi training camp,” by Stephen Rex Brown, New York Daily News, October 21, 2014:

A softspoken, schizophrenic suspected terrorist was charged Tuesday with attempting to establish a jihadi training camp in the United States.

Haroon Aswat, 40, mumbled “not guilty” in Manhattan Federal Court as Judge Katherine Forrest read the charges of providing support to terrorists.

The bleary-eyed British citizen with shaggy black hair had been extradited from the United Kingdom earlier in the day.

He is accused of being an accomplice of hook-handed hate cleric Abu Hamza al-Masri, who is awaiting sentencing after being convicted in May of conspiring to open a terrorist training camp in rural Bly, Oregon, in 1999.

Prosecutors said the camp was intended to serve as a military-style training ground for jihadists bound for Afghanistan.

In a letter faxed to Aswat urging him to travel to Bly, one of Hamza’s sympathizers said the camp “looks just like Afghanistan” and that they were “stock-piling weapons and ammunition” there, according to documents.

In 2002, FBI agents recovered a ledger from an Al Qaeda safehouse in Karachi, Pakistan, that included Aswat’s name, prosecutors said.

Aswat’s attorney, Peter Quijano, said his client had medications, including an anti-psychotic, that he needed to take immediately….

    Too bad anti-psychotics weren’t there 14 centuries ago!

      So we’re going for the insanity plea? OK, remand him to an institution for the rest of his life. Hopefully on a strict regimen of some heavy psychotropic.

    Psychosis- a severe mental disorder in which thought and emotions are so impaired that contact is lost with external reality.

    The internal unreality, koran etc, manifests via the weaker outlets of Islam. Ayatolla on the front line?

    What about the 30+ camps that already exist in the U.S.?

      Yes, there are Muslim terrorist training camps in the USA and most Mosques in the USA preach jihad against the infidels is the duty of all Muslims. The most fanatical of the Muslims are the recent converts who can’t wait to kill and rape infidels.

    If he was born-and-bred Muslim he may well be schizophrenic.

    Clinically so, as in, born that way.

    Because if his mother wore heavy hijab – especially in the low-intensity sunlight of the UK – and was therefore severely Vitamin-D deficient, his neurological development in utero could have been scrambled. (Being brought up inside Islam would, of course, have added insult to injury, neurologically speaking).

    I read a very interesting article awhile ago about a big, longterm study that was done in Scandinavia: they tested new mums and their newborns for levels of Vitamin D in their blood, then followed the kids as they grew.

    They found that if mum was severely Vitamin D deficient during pregnancy the newborn would also be deficient; and the newborns whose blood levels of Vitamin D were the lowest were much more likely to develop schizophrenia by the time they hit their teen years.

    Now, if that’s so…imagine how much totally preventable psychiatric illness – of a peculiarly nasty variety – has been inflicted upon millions of people throughout the past 14 centuries of Islam during which millions of women have become severely Vitamin D deficient due to wearing heavy hijab from age 10 onward.
