Maryland: Muslim indicted for training with jihad terror group

Jan 11, 2016 10:15 pm By Robert Spencer

Al-Shabaab, which carried out the bloody Westgate mall jihad massacre in Kenya, has threatened attacks in the U.S.

“Maryland man accused of training with African terrorist group,” Associated Press, January 11, 2016:

BALTIMORE – A Maryland man has been indicted on charges of supporting and receiving military training from an African terrorist group connected with Al Qaeda.

Thirty-one-year-old Maalik Alim Jones appeared in federal court in New York City last month on a complaint and indictment unsealed Monday, according to the U.S. Department of Justice.

According to the indictment, Jones, a U.S. citizen, left Baltimore in 2011 and traveled to Somalia, where he was taken to an al-Shabab training camp.

After being trained how to shoot firearms and operate a rocket propelled grenade, Jones allegedly took part in a battle in the Somali town of Afmadow against Kenyan soldiers….

    15% of Muslims worldwide support jihad terror. A small number of the 15% are prepared to lose their life…for Islam. We should expect about 1 terrorist per 3,000 to 7,000 Muslims. There may be 250 or as high as 500 motivated jihad killers in the US today. They are merely waiting to meet someone who will lead and guide them into the practice of jihad. Many will merely need to asked.

    Large numbers of Muslims are presently training themselves and their relatives on American pistol and rifle ranges.

    Should America permit Muslims to train on rifle ranges?

      Of course not but when you have the Democrats and Repubes like Paul Ryan and John Kasich and God only knows how many more selling out Americans it’s an uphill battle.

      • Oliver says

        So Cal–you left out ( my view) McCain; Lindsay Graham; and a whole lot of other members of Congress.

    Of course not – we should not even allow them within our borders.

      My numbers are intentionally low…I actually believe we could add 1,000 to above. There are (imho) over 1,000 jihadists presently in America who are fully prepared to lose their life for Islam and die while killing Americans.

      • Solomon says

        Jan 12, 2016 at 1:43 am

        I think the numbers are higher than that. Perhaps a lot higher. Estimates range that between 5 to 12 million Muslims live in the U.S. Considering we’ve let in over a quarter million per year since 9/11/01 alone, I’d tend to think the number is far closer to 12 mil. than 5 mil. But to be on the conservative side, let’s say there are 10 mil. Muslims in America. If your 1 terrorist per every 3000 Muslims number is correct, that would equal over 3300 terrorists in America. Of course those who support jihad are far more numerous than that, and most are mentally unstable enough to join the ranks of those who are willing to murder and die for their sick cult.

          Question to Mortimer & Solomon– what about the ones who convert-both those in prison (I would guess the majority) and those who do it because they are, well, effing stupid?

          And those who convert while in prions-my guess-more likely to become jihadists-know some of the ropes; tricks, etc- and are obviously NOT NICE BOYS AND GIRLS, BUT THE SHIT OF THE EARTH.

          (I use to-in the 1980’s and early 1990’s do some work for a criminal defense attorney; the scum that most of these people were-was sickening; they deserved to die. My views- and his; few had any morality and compassion or empathy for anyone but themselves. Usually, not even for their spouse and/or children and/or parents or siblings. Mostly just selfish pieces of shit).

    He should be extradited to Kenya to face trial there also. As for his incarceration, it would be much less expensive to have him serve his time in a Kenyan jail cell instead of in the U.S.

    • Oliver says

      Jan 12, 2016 at 5:37 pm

      It would be even cheaper if he were to hang himself; of perhaps someone could slip some poison in his meal. So have him slip while showering, and have his head hit the wall and floor. With nobody to see it happen.

      and just run some water to clean the shower.

    History–bloody, heartbreaking, and shame-worthy that it is in this specific respect–testifies to the fact of our inescapability to reap the harvest of our seemingly insatiable thirst for lies with respect to Islam and the followers of that faith system.

    And we will continue to do so, again, and again, and again, and again…

    As Robert has stated, as I have often stated; at the hands of “believers,” our dead, all too often now, here, abroad, fall and pile around us like cord wood; and we do little more than, clean up the horridness of it all; shed, pour, and swallow bitter tears. And all the while, while doing so, do our damn level best to also whitewash Islam and the adherents to it.

      There actually was a Jewish Nazi once. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dan_Burros.

        Wuckidpedia is not a reliable source of credible information…

        Those who belie that light is dark and dark is light are like a drunk in a dark room full of cardboard boxes, trying to find the light switch…

        • Oliver says

          Jan 12, 2016 at 5:43 pm

          duh-I agree; I remember reading that Wucki etc had WRONG INFORMATION about someone alive. THE PERSON SENT THEM CORRECT INFORMATION – BUT BECAUSE HE SENT IT-WITHOUT “SOMEONE TO COLLABORATE IT’, they would not change it.

          Snopes is another source that I would not trust. It was ( and probably still is) a husband and wife, no training in research, sitting at their table, going through almanacs; newspapers and INTERNET sources, to see if something is true or not. And sometimes that had college students to help. (They were in Cal., I think the San Diego area, not sure; retired and nothing to do)

        I’ve read about Dan Burros elsewhere. Note that he was not a member of the original Nazi Party in Germany during WWII, but of the American Nazi Party in the 1960s.

        He kept his Jewish heritage secret, and committed suicide when it was discovered. He had also been heavily involved with the KKK.

        Here’s the original story from the Jewish Telegraphic Agency from 1965:

    This is what we hear about Jihad activity. I bet this is only a very small percentage of Jihad activity going on in the USA as it is not reported. We are really late in starting fight against this EVIL Islam. We will be like Europe soon ( in fact we are) and start a civil unrest to come up with a plan to fight. I don’t see it any other way at the rate we are going.

    Did he convert in prison? Jones as a last name and Maalik as a first name do not-to me-seem to go together.
    Sort of not go together like Moshe O’ Reilly ( but he would probably NOT be a killer)

    ……………………….

    Yet more stories about Muslims in the West training for violent Jihad. I’ve lost track of the number of these stories at this point.
