Jihad Watch

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

FBI questioned Muslima four months before her jihad arson attack for exhorting Muslims to join jihad terror groups

Feb 10, 2018 12:09 pm By Robert Spencer

“In September last year, FBI agents interviewed Hassan about whether she authored and delivered a letter to two fellow students at St. Catherine in March 2017. Prosecutors allege the letter sought to encourage fellow students to ‘join the jihad in fighting’ and to join al-Qaida, the Taliban or al-Shabab.”

“Hassan again had disappeared from her family’s Minneapolis apartment on Jan. 10. A week later, she was found hiding in a dorm lounge at St. Catherine after she allegedly set the fires at buildings at the university on Jan. 17, including a daycare center that housed 33 children. No one was injured.”

Here the FBI has someone who is calling upon Muslims to join al-Qaeda, the Taliban or al-Shabab, and she is free four months later to try to commit jihad mass murder. If the fires she set had spread, they could have killed many more people than the 33 children in the day care center.

Why wasn’t the FBI watching her? Do they simply not have the resources to keep track of all the Muslims who exhort others to join jihad terror groups? Or were they afraid of Minnesota Leftist authorities and media, who would accuse them of “Islamophobia” for keeping Muslims under surveillance?

The FBI is so outstandingly clueless and corrupt at this point that this could also be attributed to infiltration or incompetence.

More on this story. “Prosecutors: Former St. Kate’s student accused of arson left her family multiple times,” by Mukhtar M. Ibrahim, MPR News, February 9, 2018 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):

Tnuza Hassan, the 19-year-old accused of setting nine fires in multiple buildings at St. Catherine University in January and was later charged with attempting to join al-Qaeda, was hiding from her family at the school when she allegedly carried out the arson.

On two separate occasions in the last five months, Hassan’s family reported her missing to law enforcement, according to a memorandum in support of her detention filed Friday evening by federal prosecutors in U.S. District Court in Minneapolis.

On Sept. 19, 2017, Hassan had attempted to travel to Afghanistan to join al-Qaeda. A day later, her family reported her missing. A court document says Hassan got as far as Dubai, “but for a lack of visa, she may well be in the ranks of (al-Qaeda) at this moment.”

And then on Dec. 29, 2017, Hassan again tried to leave the United States for Ethiopia with her mother….

Hassan again had disappeared from her family’s Minneapolis apartment on Jan. 10. A week later, she was found hiding in a dorm lounge at St. Catherine after she allegedly set the fires at buildings at the university on Jan. 17, including a daycare center that housed 33 children. No one was injured.

After her arrest, Hassan said she set the fires on campus in retaliation for the U.S. military’s actions in Muslim lands, according to a court document. When asked what she would do if released from custody but not allowed to leave the U.S. for a Muslim country, Hassan replied: “Then I have the right to do jihad,” according to a court document….

In September last year, FBI agents interviewed Hassan about whether she authored and delivered a letter to two fellow students at St. Catherine in March 2017. Prosecutors allege the letter sought to encourage fellow students to “join the jihad in fighting” and to join al-Qaida, the Taliban or al-Shabab.

“Why would you live under a manmade law over the law of Allah,” Hassan wrote in the recruitment letter, which prosecutors say she admitted to writing.

Hassan, who has no prior criminal history, also wrote that she considers following the laws of a secular government as “blasphemy” and that Muslim who follows the laws of the United States “will go to hell.”…

    The FBI FAILED in 2017 because they unsure of CENTRAL DOCTRINES of Islam (forget the minor issues like hand washings that don’t affect us).

    Because Obama made the MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD the INTIMATE PARTNER of the US government, the PROPONENTS OF JIHAD tried to make American police forces TOTALLY BLIND TO JIHAD. They all but succeeded.

    It is time NOW for President Trump to REINSTITUTE the DETAILED STUDY OF JIHAD in ALL law enforcement agencies controlled by his government.

      Bring back teaching on the Islamic jihad to ALL law enforcement agencies, federal, State. County and city….Robert Spencer did some of this…I know he has a lot on his plate but maybe he could give some assistance at least to get us back on track to help thwart terrorism.

    {she considers following the laws of a secular government as “blasphemy” and that Muslim who follows the laws of the United States “will go to hell.”…}

    Question for the FBI, does only someone joining al Qaeda believe this, or is this something any pious, believing Muslim would be obliged by their religion to concur with? Implications?

    Including your congressman, Minneapolis? Including more of the current and next waves of Muslim “guests”? I’m sure there is much more to learn about this family, this mother taking her jihadi-obsessed daughter to Ethiopia, the extended family, her associates, her mosque… but that would never happen because she can only be a “lone wolf” radicalized online, or some such, the innocence of Islam fiction is the official policy of the government and the (ever diminishing) West.

      *the caveat, of course, pretending to follow secular laws as a form of concealment to further Islam,
      which is perfectly halal and standard operating procedure.

    Why on earth did the FBI prevent her from leaving the US for a Muslim country? Good riddance!

    From Europe / Canada
    ==================

    Tommy Robinson (English) of Rebel media (Canada) was in Europe, Germany. Interviewing people in Cottbus, one of the places of recent troubles. The video is in ENGLISH, though the article is in German, on PI-News website. It is not “just” symptomatic for Germany, but practically all of western and northern Europe. Installation of fear of being prosecuted by the police, of losing your job – even if it’s a relative who spoke and not you. In other words, intimidation. European readers know what I am talking about. An interesting part is where Tommy (the video is about 8mins) begins to interview journalists of the MSM – and their reactions!

    American viewers, most of you may feel safe and secure; but you are not. The way this started over here is what happens now in the US. Dearborn, Michigan is already far down the road. Places near or with easy access to the Canadian border are hot-spots, for obvious reasons. Though, it happens in other places too, of course.

    Soon in a town near you. Soon? Very soon!

    I remember this serpent (check JW’s archives, Jan. 2018). I thought her excuses were smelly then. If she thinks obeying U.S. law is sinful, send her to al-Qaeda, or wherever else. We never should have let her back in.

    If she’s judged guilty, send her right out of the courtroom. Send her family out of the country if they kick up a fuss. She got her ideas from somewhere; I don’t think it was from St. Catherine’s, no matter how dhimmi the Church is becoming.

    Far from hating the ‘man made laws’ of the kuffar, it seems this little snake was quite enjoying her freedom to go about the place without permission or chaperone.

    What, no sick jokes about her mustache this time? Finally, the Moslimas get the respect they deserve. Yet, for some reason I can’t resist asking whether when the FBI questioned her four months earlier did they ask her why she grew the mustache…

    Something of interest —-

    ====================

    KTI — Knights Templar International

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2wZ0t0xlHzg

    A top-level Templar delegation went deep into the heart of Islamist-occupied Kosovo to visit several of the Christian enclaves holding on despite constant oppression. While there, the KTI donated funds to help, and to show solidarity with, the oppressed Christian minority. The Templars gave gifts of cash to several of the Orthodox monasteries which co-ordinate relief supplies. And another lump sum to buy a pump for a new well, dug by fathers at a Serbian school after Islamist local government cut off their water supply in an effort to force the Christians out.

    The KTI also met with Serbian community leaders and supplied emergency communications and other equipment for unarmed Christian early warning patrols against the constant threat of renewed Islamist aggression.

      Whoa whoa there! Take it easy with the facts about Serbs. Don’t you know that Serbs were main aggressors and genocidal maniacs in the 90s while all their neighbors were innocent victims? Albanian muslims, Bosian muslims and Nazi Croats had no choice but to slaughter and banish the long-established Serbs from their lands en masse. They were just defending themselves from those awful, genocidal, bloodthirsty Serbian farmers, they didn’t have a choice! I learned all this from the MSM so I can’t be wrong.

    Never ascribe to malice that which can be explained by incompetence. Napoleon.
    But… after the hoots and hijinks with the FBI meddling in the last elections, it might be ascribed to being politically correct for the deep state secret society possibly involving the Caliphate in Chief.

    What is wrong with the FBzi it seems they have been given information on and interviewed every Muslim mass shooter and Muslim recruiter. in the country but failed to identify them as a threat to this country. Were they to interested in overthrowing the elected government of the United States to recognize Muslim threats, or was that all part of one mission.
