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

Arizona: Muslim plotted jihad massacres at Jewish center, USAF recruitment center, DMV

“Khan, 18, who the government said has pledged his allegiance to the Islamic State, also known as ISIS, ISIL and Daesh, was accused of writing e-mails to an alleged member of the Pakistan Taliban, looking for help to build explosives and plan their use.”

How many more like him are in the U.S.? No one knows, because to investigate that question properly would be “Islamophobic.”

“Arizona man pleads guilty to planning terrorist attacks,” by Stephen Feller, UPI, October 10, 2016:

PHOENIX, Oct. 10 (UPI) — An Arizona man pleaded guilty to planning lone terror attacks in the Tucson area, the Arizona Attorney General’s office announced Monday.

Mahin Atif Khan pleaded guilty on charges of inciting or inducing terrorism, financing or managing terrorism and manufacturng [sic], possessing or selling a prohibited weapon, which may send him to jail for up to 14 years.

Khan, 18, who the government said has pledged his allegiance to the Islamic State, also known as ISIS, ISIL and Daesh, was accused of writing e-mails to an alleged member of the Pakistan Taliban, looking for help to build explosives and plan their use.

Rather than militants overseas, Khan was actually talking to FBI agents for several months while planning a “lone jihad attack,” telling the agents he’d been considering a Jewish Community Center and Air Force recruitment Center in Tucson and the Motor Vehicle Division office in Mesa as potential targets….

    How many more of these with a bit more skill are currently “under cover” in the US, Europe, and Israel ready to strike? Yeah, they caught this piece of pig feces but what about jihadis who are using more discrete forms of communication.

    One of the worst mistakes you can make in a war (and make no mistake, we are in a war!) is to underestimate your enemy or their skills. Yes, most followers of pisslam are morons (they have to be to follow their insane religion). But statistics will show that there is a tiny minority who will get further than this guy.

The people,us. we, are going to have to be the protectors… Is that possible though?????

    Before one underestimates his enemies’ skills, one must first acknowledge the existence of ones’ enemy.

    The Islamic Center of Tucson was “basically the first cell of al-Qaeda in the United States,” terrorism expert Rita Katz told The Washington Post in 2002. “At least a dozen terror-linked individuals have been tied to the” center, according to the Clarion Project.

    When 2nd war, the japanese population here in USA was under a very strict control, and never ever anyone accuse to anyone of racism or any social/political “Phobia”, just with this islamists/Muslims Criminals PIGS every thing is a Cover Up, everything is to “Sensible”, anything will turn into an “Offence, “and what Really is a Political manipulation and TREASON by the TRASH in USA Government. KILL THEM ALL and Clean this Nation of the Islamist/Muslim TRASH.

    The FBI can’t be eavesdropping everywhere – not even the KGB could do it. Eventually more attacks will come to pass.

    15% of Muslims self-identify as supporters of a TERRORIST group. Less than one 1% of this 15% ARE TERRORISTS. This means around one Muslim in 2,000 or 3,000 has terrorist ideation and/or plotting an attack.

    The guide to finding jihadists is to find out who is studying jihad. Most jihads have gone to Islamic study groups where the foundational source texts are read and studied.
