For years, the existence of these camps has been dismissed as “right-wing” hysteria. But now even today’s clueless and compromised FBI is confirming it.
“Exclusive: FBI Confirms Jihadi Training Camps in America,” by Ryan Mauro, Clarion Project, January 31, 2018:
Newly-released FBI documents obtained by Clarion Project confirm Clarion’s reports that Jamaat ul-Fuqra is training members in isolated communes across America and Canada.
The group’s “Islamberg” headquarters in upstate New York is its most well-known “Islamic village.”
Fuqra, which now goes by the name of the Muslims of the Americas (MOA) among other titles, is a cultish Islamist group with a history of crime and terrorism. The group is led by Sheikh Mubarak Ali Gilani in Pakistan.
Gilani’s name appeared in headlines in 2002 when Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl was abducted and beheaded on his way to interview Gilani, though the radical cleric was never accused of an involvement in those crimes.
The first FBI document is dated November 27, 2009 and labels the Muslims of the Americas, Inc. as “armed and dangerous.” It begins by summarizing the group’s consistent history of extremism, terrorism and crime:
“Jamaat ul-Fuqra, aka Muslims of the Americas (MOA), have a history of violence and/or violent acts. Use extreme caution when dealing with confirmed members or individuals who are believed to be associated with this group”
The report says that Sheikh Gilani is “thought to be supportive of al-Qaeda,” perhaps referring to the group’s links to al-Qaeda affiliates like Hizbul Mujahideen, to which Fuqra has a history of ties and publicly supports even today.
FBI documents from 2003 that Clarion released in December 2016 mentioned Fuqra’s links to al-Qaeda in Pakistan and use of fronts like security companies in America.
Another newly-released document from December 2010 explicitly refers to “the Muslims of the Americas [aka Fuqra] terrorist organization” and states:
“The MOA [Fuqra] is composed primarily of black American Muslim converts, many who converted to Islam while in prison. Many MOA members reside in rural communities (jamaats) to live and worship free from non-Muslim influence.
The MOA jamaats are located on land that has been privately owned or rented by members. Each jamaat usually has numerous trailers where members reside, a mosque, and a guard post, some with armed guards, at the entrance to the properties. These communities, similar to commune type facilities, have women and children residing in them with the children being homeschooled.
Organized training is also conducted to include weapons training, tactics, hand-to-hand combat, rappelling, and live-fire exercises.”
We have posted these declassified reports on FuqraFiles.com, Clarion Project’s comprehensive website about the group.
Fuqra has a documented history of conducting basic paramilitary training in America and elsewhere, including more advanced training in Pakistan and Kashmir.
Gilani appeared in a secret video in the early 1990s offering to use Fuqra offices to provide guerilla training to aspiring jihadists. Clarion Project also released a video from 2001-2002 showing women in military attire getting training at Islamberg.
One of Fuqra’s terrorist-training camps, a 101-acre tract of land in Colorado, was raided in 1992. It was subsequently abandoned by the group, as reported in this recent KRDO news report with Heather Skold. You can see pictures from the investigation into the Colorado Fuqra camp on the Fuqra Files website.
Fuqra fugitives from the training camp were even the subject of an episode of America’s Most Wanted in 1994.
Although these FBI documents from 2009-2011 state that Fuqra has about a dozen “jamaats” in America, the group itself claims to have 22 “Islamic villages” in America alone. The locations for these “Islamic villages” are identified as “Islamberg” in New York, as well as other villages in Virginia, South Carolina, Georgia, Tennessee, Texas, Michigan, Canada and Trinidad and Tobago.
The group also has operations in Pakistan, Kashmir, Canada, Trinidad, Venezuela and elsewhere (Fuqra has a history of being secretive and deceptive about its locations).
FBI reports from a 2003-2007 investigation in Texas warned, “The MOA [Fuqra] is now an autonomous organization which possesses an infrastructure capable of planning and mounting terrorist campaigns overseas and within the U.S.”…
DBM echo says
Another armed and dangerous training site is located at 453 New Jersey Avenue, SE Washington, DC 20003,
Karen says
Yes, indeed!
brenrod says
“FBI reports from a 2003-2007 investigation in Texas warned, “The MOA [Fuqra] is now an autonomous organization which possesses an infrastructure capable of planning and mounting terrorist campaigns overseas and within the U.S.”…”
nothing after 2008….. when hussein obama ascended to the throne?
elee says
Maybe Comey Giuliani et al should have paid attention to Islamberg instead of electing Trump via October Surprise.
eduardo odraude says
Did Comey elect Trump? Or rather give Hillary a chance she didn’t deserve, by reporting “extreme carelessness” instead of “gross negligence” in her handling of classified information?
How can someone who is concerned about the spread of totalitarian Islam support Hillary? She made clear that she would have accelerated Islamic immigration to the US. Her policy on that means that no one who supports religious freedom, believes in freedom of speech, rejects anti-Semitism, and has eyes open could vote for Hillary. Unfortunately, all too many people, especially on the Democrat side, but also among Repubs, are fast asleep to these issues.
Terry Gain says
You make a very good point. Clinton idiotically claimed that iSIS ( which emulated Muhammad) had nothing to do with Islam. The stupidity is mind boggling.
elee says
I agree with Terry Gain and Eduardo Odraude regarding culpable ignorance by far too many people who should have acquainted themselves with a few basic Muslim texts. There is also something of a politician’s reflex to avoid pissing off a billion zealots across the globe. If anyone knows how to make the people responsible for our safety actually read that stuff, don’t bother writing here, just do it.
Ashley says
I don’t get it. The FBI knows these “Islamic villages” are operating in New York, Virginia, South Carolina, Georgia, Tennessee, Texas and Michigan and that these “villages” are mounting terrorist campaigns. How about infiltrating? How about launching raids? How about stopping this nonsense before innocents are slaughtered?
TheOldOligarch says
It will be like the Paris massacre in 2015, they will stop this AFTER innocents are slaughtered. Before the inevitable massacre, hardly anybody will pay attention to this so the authorities will just pretend it doesn’t exist.
They never act against this sort of thing until they are actually forced to. The massacre might not happen for several more years, so they could have several more years of being able to pretend that nothing is wrong, and I’m sure they intend to use every second of it.
Terry Gain says
All of that would be Islamophobic. Fortunately the United States is no longer run by a Muslim.
Jinn and Tonic says
What makes you think they have not been infiltrated? Could be 5-10% of the “recruits” are actually government agents. One reason it’s not a good idea to go vigilante on their ass.
Thomas Kimball says
Maybe with all the obama appointees “retiring” from the FBI we can get them doing what they are supposed to be doing instead of trying to remove a sitting president that they apparently have nothing on! I believe that the rank a file agents in the FBI are for the most part patriotic and want to just do their jobs but have been under the thumb of a corrupt administration with a Muslim president! And if you think he wasn’t a Muslim you are either blind ,stupid or both!
bodega says
And why have these places been allowed to continue to exist? I thought the FBI was responisible for keeping us safe from jihadiis people like this. Has the FBI been subverted into a Muslim 5th column and the job then of the FBI is to allow such infiltrations by such groups to continue?
Why are these places still in place? Terrorists have no rights in this country in my opinion.
elee says
Hey Bodega…..who the hell knows? What’s up with the Trump/Erdogan bromance? Trump/Putin?
Papal new borg says
You tell me elee, seems to be a conjured fantasy.
eduardo odraude says
These private religious communities are probably not breaking the law in any overt or public way. I guess law enforcement first must establish probable cause with a judge in order to get permission to infiltrate and surveil these groups. Obama, with his emphasis on rooting out “Islamophobia” and “slander” against the “Prophet,” may have created a law enforcement environment where the problem with these communities was to some extent soft-pedaled and neglected. Trump has only been in office one year, while the FBI top people seem to have been wary or even hostile toward him and his agenda. But I suspect these Jamaat al Fuqra camps will not have it so easy in the US in Trump’s year 2.
Troybeam says
These areas are considered NO GO ZONES, these areas are heavily armed and law enforcement knows it as does the FBI. To go in and dismantle these areas will take a lot of planning and surprise by our military. These areas will also put women and children on the front line to keep from being attacked all the while using the wait game to attack from behind, do these groups worry abut collateral damage and how many people will die, no away in hell.
While the killing of women and child is difficult one has to remember that these individuals have been taught to kill us without thought of it being wrong. Their whole mentality is to kill the infidel so that Islam is spread, the Koran teaches them to kill, they will tell you the differently however should you be reading this get a copy of the Koran and Reliance of the Traveller: Islamic Sacred Law, read for yourself and never listen to or take a Muslims word at face value, they are also taught to lie.
katherine says
Those ‘children’ are also trained to kill just like their parents. What’s needed is a Russian Mentality – be prepared to mow them ALL down if used as shields – they likewise will not give any consideration to any civilians when it comes to jihad slaughter.
Since they subscribe to the Fascist concept of TOTAL war – so be it. There are no human rights for animals such as non-Muslims anyway – so none should be given in return.
LeftisruiningCanada says
But they were happy commit mass murder at Waco?
Bet it’s way worse in these islamic training camps for the kids and women.
Garfield says
Why? Obama. That’d be my guess as to why these camps were let to just sit there breeding anti american criminals.
Dr. Harold Westra says
Ok FBI Confirms these camps. Are these individuals citizens of the USA. If not Why are they still in the USA
I completed the required fields and you will not post it. Maybe I am done with facebook
steve says
I read of Islamist groups seen training in Eire. The fact was put to the Irish Government. Those cowardly supine, cretins merely noted that as long as the Muslim ‘chaps’ did not use real guns in their demonstrations, all was fine.
Sharyati says
Oh god does this need the FBI to find out?Once a country is identified as a target for attacks, it is only cheaper in terms of logistics and man power(Recruit locally) to do it locally and this need directly translates to Jihadi camps. India has plenty of them. NO not just in Jammu and Kashmir but many in the deep south like Kerala, Andhra Pradesh, Telengana and i suspect even Tamil Nadu(The US equivalent of California in India where Jihadi leaders find sanctuary).
But the West is waking up to the reality of Jihad on its own soil just in the last 10 years, a fact it denied vehemently 3 decades ago when India warned the world of Jihadi terrorism, when the Kashmiri Pandit cleansing happened in J&K.
ConanKong says
Dollars to donuts the FBI won’t treat these camps the same way they treated the Branch Davidians and the Weavers at Ruby Ridge.
Ashley says
I was thinking the same thing, ConanKong. The FBI didn’t fool around with Waco and Ruby Ridge. The FBI has said these “villages” are actually jihadi training camps. There are women and children in these isolated “villages.”
I maintain these communities need to be CLOSELY monitored. They are ticking time bombs…
seabird says
All it took was one modified rifle and reports of underage “wives” to unleash the full deadly wrath of the ATF/FBI on Ruby Ridge/Waco Christians.
I’m sorry to say that the FBI has become a politicized threat to the security of the US and needs to be investigated and purged.
After learning more about Mr Spencer’s longtime association consulting the FBI (and his subsequent removal), I can’t help thinking that there was a direct link between the FBI and the attempted murder of him in Garland, TX.
I hope Mr Spencer will write a book on that incident “Tear up Texas”.
It’s one of the few instances where the FBI was caught aiding jihadists and actually committing treason (or total incompetence at best).
In the meanwhile, we need to get some drones up photographing these “camps” since the “authorities” don’t seem to have any interest in them.
Ashley says
+1
LeftisruiningCanada says
Fully agree.
But it’s ok to shoot and burn out non muslims, because the rest of the ‘community’ won’t blow themselves up at some random soft targets across the country.
Jim Conch says
If you started a village and called it ‘Infidelberg’ you would be called a racist or bigot.
Ashley says
You know…Islamberg strikes me as an odd name for this village. Not to be stereotypical but don’t many Jewish and German last names end in “berg”? Why not “burgh”…like Pittsburgh?
Guess this charming little hamlet didn’t want to adopt a more suitable name like Jihadville…
Garfield says
FGM Town? Or wait that gives the women way too much attention. Barbarianville?
Ann says
The one in Odum, GA is all too close to nuclear Plant Hatch – the one Mohammad Atta flew over.
traci94 says
And why are these allowed to exist? Is the FBI worried that they might violate their human rights?
Wellington says
I wonder what percentage of FBI employees really know Islam. I mean know what Oriana Fallaci, Winston Churchill, Bertrand Russell, Ernest Renan, Arthur Schopenhauer, Alexis de Tocquevile, John Quincy Adams, Thomas Jefferson, Edward Gibbon, David Hume, et al. knew about Islam, in addition to those still living like Robert Spencer, Hugh Fitzgerald, Ibn Warraq, Pope Benedict XVI, Bat Ye’or and Nonie Darwish.
Yes, I wonder. I fear the percentage would not be high and, if so, herein lies a great problem, a tremendous problem, but hopefully not an insuperable one.
Verdict still out. Not just for the FBI but for America and, even more expansively, for all of the West. Yes, the stakes are this high respecting knowledge (or lack thereof) on this particular “matter.”
katherine says
An FBI agent who doesn’t know the works of any of the above ? What nincompoop hired them then, are entry requirements that low now ?
I wish to sign up – I’ll fit right in – only know the works of Kama Sutra.
Savvy Kafir says
In a sane world, in which the American government understood that the True Believers of Islam have really, sincerely DECLARED WAR on our country & our people, some stealthy tactical types would slip into these camps and eliminate these jihadis-in-training, who present an obvious danger to American civilians.
It would be unforgivably stupid & irresponsible to wait until these assholes murder some innocent people.
World War III is upon us. It’s time to start fighting back! — with a special focus on the jihadis living among us. They consider themselves soldiers of Allah & enemy combatants, and should be treated as such.
We’re not dealing with ordinary criminals — and the normal rules don’t apply, when the enemy consists of bloody-minded terrorists who aim to murder civilians and destroy our society.
DFD says
Hilarious. Over two or three years ago there are lists of jihadi training camps in the US. Videos, with helicopter overflights, interviews with locals, and maps even, with locations in various US states and counties.
When I mentioned this the response was essentially: “…can’t be, ergo it isn’t!” Thus ‘debunked’. And better still: “…it’s anti-American (i.e., you or whoever reported and showed the links was an America hater)…” Incredible.
You folks ‘over there’ (west Atlantic) are actually in a worse condition than we Euros in reference to the so-called ‘population (ex)change’ or ‘Umvolkung’. Understandably, the USA is being hammered for 53 years by now. Conversely the bulk of the invasion/population change in Europe runs with its current level of intensity for about 4-6 years. {{Yeah, yeah idiots, I know, I know. It’s “America hating” to say so, now go back to your d-day tapes…}} In the US, as I said in a previous post, the process was run rather slowly, as per Hooton’s instructions, and those of Barnett of course.
When Trump came to power, there were about 30-50 such camps, known ones that is. How many now? What has Trump done to dismantle at least one of these? ***NOTHING!*** And pointing that out is of course ‘America hating’ – as per the opinion of every piss-pot brain. What is however outright intriguing is that there is not one of the so-called ‘anti-jihadi’ sites pointing to any of the maps, videos, articles in reference to these camps. NOT A SINGLE ONE! Entire training camps, combat training with explosives, automatic weapons, terror tactics, hand-to-hand combat, street fighting, and so on, and so forth. Secretly made film clips of these. And the anti-jihadi websites, which are soooo concerned about terrorism, are replying or reporting with – silence, utter silence. Instead, pictures of Hitler or some other dead Nazi with a Mufti from Jerusalem or Bethlehem, or whatever. And endless quotes from the Quran. Weird, to say the least….
TODAY I HAVE ACTUALLY SEEN FOR THE FIRST TIME SOMETHING ABOUT THESE ON AN ANTI-JIHAD WEBSITE. I.E. Here on JW, FIRST TIME IN YEARS!
That is something that ought to have been reported about, and on, at least once a week. Now it turns out that it was even known here on JW, in details, location, video, etc….. Weird is an understatement.
In Europe, all training camps have been destroyed, Exceptions: Albania, Kosovo and Bosnia, where the Mujahadeen operate under NATO protection. I do not know about Russia/Chechnia, though I suspect there to be camps as well. But the camps in Hungary, Czechia, Slovakia, southern Serbia and Croatia have all been destroyed. In reference to these countries, I do not know the fate of the Mujahadeen concerned.
Ashley says
DFD…I can understand your frustration and bewilderment.
I’m not making light of the terrible Turpin tragedy that has fixated our country as of late but I often ask myself “what about the others?” We have cells, communes, and cults all over the place. Always have. Always will.
My issue is that these “Islamic villages” pose a threat to our national security if they are indeed training camps.
I wish I could offer up answers and solutions.
I can’t.

Indiana Tom says
The MOA [Fuqra] is composed primarily of black American Muslim converts, many who converted to Islam while in prison.
That speaks volumes.
mikhael says
segregate known muslims from proselytising.
islam attracts perverts because its so carnal.
these black people would be better sent back to africa
to share their new found western tech and help their poor
brothers out of the shite hole they’re in
Infidel says
Not a single Muslim leader, anywhere in the world, talks of jobs, tech, development, economy, while they ride on the hardwork and progress of non-Muslims. There’s is just to keep on breeding to majority as fast as possible and also to keep on rioting and fighting… This is the only thing they strive for…
And here in India, the authorities have arrested a mad Muslim called Salim Javed who short-gunned an innocent Hindu young man whose mistake was that he was carrying India’s flag during the annual Republic Day March thru a Muslim area in India’s North…
The MSM portrays this monster as a decent family loving man and is expressing doubts as to how he can kill the Hindu boy.. So already, this monster Muslim has one step outside the jail and I’m sure he will be free to resume his Jehaad against Hindus..

Infidel says
“Over 20 men including Saleem stopped the youths participating in Tiranga Yatra, snatched their flag and threw it on the ground, asking them to shout Pakistan Zindabad (Long live Pakistan). But when my son protested, the attackers pelted them with stones. Saleem aimed and fired at Chandan, injuring him. He was later declared dead at the hospital.” Witness to the ghastly situation..
Infidel says
The likes of Linda Sarsour will play the American card like any other traitor Muslim just to milk all the benefits of American society that suits Islam and its advancement in the infidel land.. Therefore, she will scream :”Fellow Americans” to drum up max supp against true patriots who stand up to her Trojan anti-national antics… But the moment, the use of the American card is finished for her in any boiling issue which she and her like will always rake up from time2time to create chaos in the infidel society… she will dump the “Fellow Americans” card like a bad habit and revert back to her pet Muslim card that she is Muslim first and then American last….. This is the same game that Muslims play in India as well as all over the world..
Gerald Mucci says
Nothing will be done about these Islamic military training enclaves until at least into Trump’s second term if he survive his first.
The FBI is still traumatized by Waco and their other anti-Christian fiascos. And frankly, the FBI and other Federal agencies are more sensitive toward Muslims than Christians. They fear Muslim backlash. They don’t fear Christian backlash because there rarely is any.
There needs to be a complete purge of the FBI and Justice Department before effective awareness and training about Islamic doctrine and practice is implemented. I doubt that will happen this term and if Trump or someone like him isn’t here for the next term, it never will.
Wazza says
We had a 60 minutes episode in Australia many yrs ago, the crew turned up at the compound gates somewhere in the Rural States of America, they were met with armed guards, when the reporter asked if they could come in and do a report they said no, he then said what if we did? they calmly responded, we would shoot all of you as you would be trespassing on Muslim lands
End of story
There has been many brave souls out there that have tried to expose these camps, calling the Feds, Cops with proof, and were told to butt out and no investigations were carried out, I think Bush was the Prez, then Obama came on the scene and it grew even more so.
The feds etc over there have been covering these camps up for a long time, One has to wonder why?
StellaSaidSo says
Muslim Brotherhood penetration of the FBI dates at least as far back as the Bush administration, and probably began in earnest under Clinton. In 2011, Obama (at the behest of the MB) ordered the removal from all FBI training manuals and lectures any reference to Islam in connection with terrorism. Robert Spencer’s services were terminated, along with those of Major Stephen Coughlin and others. For years now, FBI agents have stumbled around in the dark, deliberately kept in ignorance of the real threat to America’s security. It will take a long time to drain this swamp, but DJT is working on it.

Yesterday I heard an interpretation of Comey’s parting remarks to McCabe: “it’s time to wake up the sleeper cells”(?). I immediately thought of the Muslim

Snake Eater (Ret.) says
“A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.”
For your information, the federal government did away with the first half of our Second Amendment back at the turn of the 20th century and “replaced” them with the National Guard.
It is now, more than ever, necessary to revitalize the Militia of the several States because the primary purpose of the Militia of the several States was to protect the people from an overreaching tyrannical federal government.

We’ve known about that since 911, and nothing has been done since the powers that be, our government decided to end all surveillance of mosques and Muslim training camps in the us. That’s worse than sleeping on the job, it’s willfull ignorance.
