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

Ohio Muslims used fake credit card transactions to raise money for al-Qaeda leader al-Awlaki

Mar 1, 2016 2:25 pm By Robert Spencer

Odd that al-Awlaki is not named in this AP story. Does the mainstream media’s avid desire to whitewash Islam now extend to the identity of al-Qaeda leaders?

“Prosecutors say money in Ohio terrorism case went to al-Qaida leader,” Associated Press, March 1, 2016:

TOLEDO, OHIO: The Latest on four men accused of raising money for former al-Qaida leader (all times local):

11:30 a.m.

Federal prosecutors opposing the release of a man accused of helping raise money for a former al-Qaida leader say he was part of an elaborate scheme.

Court documents filed by the government say the four men with Ohio ties arrested last fall used fake credit card transactions to get the money and took steps to hide funds transfers.

Now, another one of the four will ask a federal judge in Toledo on Tuesday to be released on home detention before going on trial.

One already is out on bond, while another was denied a release.

Their attorneys have denied the charges.

Federal prosecutors say $22,000 was delivered to the former al-Qaida leader months before he was linked to the failed 2009 Christmas Day bombing attempt on a Detroit-bound airliner.

10:30 a.m.

Another one of the four men with Ohio ties accused of sending money to a former al-Qaida leader wants to be released from prison before going to trial.

Ibrahim Mohammad will ask a federal judge Tuesday in Toledo to be put on home detention in northern Ohio.

His attorney says Mohammad isn’t a danger to the community or a flight risk.

One of the four men already is out on bond while another was denied a release.

Federal prosecutors say they were working to send money to an al-Qaida leader who was linked to the planning of several attacks against American interests before being killed in a drone strike….

    Surprising that AP didn’t go ‘FULL WHITEWASH’ and fail to mention Al Qaeda! However, they did quite ‘well’ by not using the words ‘Islam’, ‘Muslim’ or ‘jihad’.

    The war on ‘terror’ continues and we NEVER name the BRAND of terror…just your generic, garden-variety of terror, folks. Nothing to see. Move along.

    Anwar al Awlaki?? Must be a Presbyterian or Amish, what?

    His attorney says Mohammad isn’t a danger to the community or a flight risk.

    Right, just because he supported and tried to help the leader of a terrorist organization funding operations to kill Americans doesn’t mean he’s a danger to his community or whatever. What’s he going to do – try to go out killing non-muslims to get his 72 virgins?

      How does his attorney know that? Guessing?

    Rule Number One: – Do Not Cause Offence
    Rule Number Two: – Feel Free To Badmouth The Enemy
    Rule Number Three: – Remember Who The Enemy Really Is

    There you go, it’s all plain sailing now!
