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

Trump: FBI must reveal what it knows about Saudi government getting its citizens out of US to avoid prosecution

Dec 26, 2019 12:00 pm By Robert Spencer

Much needed and long overdue. May this be the beginning of successful efforts to make public all the Saudi involvement in jihad terror activity and interference with counterterror efforts.

“With stroke of Trump’s pen, the FBI has 30 days to declassify Saudi fugitive intel,” by Shane Dixon Kavanaugh, The Oregonian/OregonLive, December 20, 2019

President Donald Trump on Friday signed into law a bill that forces U.S. intelligence officials to disclose what they know about the Saudi government’s suspected role in whisking its citizens out of the United States to escape criminal prosecution.

The legislation, introduced by U.S. Sen. Ron Wyden of Oregon, was part of a $1.4 trillion spending deal passed by Congress this week to avert a government shutdown.

It requires the director of the FBI — in coordination with the nation’s intelligence director — to declassify all information in its possession related to how Saudi Arabia may have helped accused lawbreakers leave the U.S.

The agency has 30 days to do so, according to newly enacted measure.

President Donald Trump on Friday, Dec. 20, signed the Saudi Fugitives Declassification Act, which was part of a $1.4 trillion spending deal reached by Congress.

“It is long past time to stop treating Saudi Arabia as if it were above the law,” Wyden, a Democrat, said in a statement. “My bill will finally force the federal government to cough up any information it may have about how the Saudi government may have assisted its citizens from fleeing beyond the reach of the U.S. justice system.”

The action in Washington comes nearly a year after an investigation by The Oregonian/OregonLive found multiple cases where Saudi students studying throughout the U.S. vanished while facing sex crime and other felony charges….

    Yes, Soddy Barbaria wants to prevent it’s criminals from being tried by the dirty KUFAAR in kafir courts under man-made American common law.

    The involvement of Saudi intel in producing 9-11 has still not been fully revealed.

    • Norger says

      I wonder if this includes 9/11 (or not). The MSM reported that 160 Saudis left the United States on 55 flights immediately after 9/11, many of them relatives of Osama Bin Laden.

      The recent shooting in Pensacola is just further evidence of our government’s denial of the obvious ideological threat.

        Did Senator Wyden support President Obama’s disastrous Iran appeasement policy? Is that what motivates his inquiry into Saudi subversion in the United States?

        I’m all in favor of transparency. That being said, the Saudi Government helped evacuate its citizens from Lebanon when protests first began on October 17, 2019 — at that time the protests were over a proposed tax on WhatsApp. So, just because the Saudi Government whisks away its citizens at the first sign of — well, just about anything — that alone does not constitute a guilty verdict. I’d very much like to see the rest of the evidence for that.

    Now there is more proof yet that the Islamic kingdom of Saudi Arabia is not an innocent nation when it comes to the subject of promoting Islamic terrorism by setting up Muslim brainwashing centers in which impressionable Muslim youth are thoroughly indoctrinated into the ways of Quran based jihad violence with much killing of people who are not Muslim for the advancement of Islam. As the Quran instructs, for example 2:191., 5:33. 9:5,111,112,123 47:4,89.

    One scholar, Brigitte Gabriel, who is an from the Middle East had in her book with the title of THEY MUST BE STOPPED informs her readers on page 114. “Saudi Arabia is one of the leading financial contributors to Islamic terrorism worldwide. Part of that contribution is made by funding madrasas throughout the world and the brainwashing of Muslim children with intolerant teaching towards anything non-Muslim.”

    Likewise, a former Muslim, Ibn Warraq, in his book which has the title of THE ISLAM IN ISLAMIC TERRORISM on page 353 reveals that “Saudi Arabia has spent millions on Islamic propaganda and on building madrassas.”

    Further on the subject that there are Muslim mind control and mind programming places where Muslim males are thoroughly indoctrinated into the strong but blind and unquestioning faith in Koran with all non-watered down; hard core Islam with its militant jihad. Those places, “schools,” are called madrasas. In those Islamic mind programming centers young Muslim male are ingrain in the mindset Koranic dogma of the use of violence and killing for the advancement of Islam. As the Koran instructs. As in, for example, in 2:191. 9:5, 123. 47:4. Many of those who of such center are so much damaged that they are literally dangerous to self and others. As seen many times in jihad suicide, homicide bombing/attacks. For the Koran instructs in 9:111. “The believers fight in Allah’s Cause, they slay and are slain, they kill and are killed.” Furthermore, those mind programming places also ingrain the outlandish absurd Koranic doctrine of a sex-filled paradise with many virgins, houris, in it for the Muslim male who dies fighting for the cause of Islam in the jihad. Such a strange doctrine of a houris filled- place in found in the Koran in 44:54. 55:56. 78:31.

    Moreover, such Islamic mind programming centers are further explained about by the scholar Don Richardson in his book SECRETS OF THE KORAN which on pages 69,70. Informs the reader that “The world needs to be warned. At least forty million Muslim youth in the Muslim worlds’ religious schools, called madrasa, are avidly memorizing the entire Koran … These schools become breeding grounds for potential terrorists. When male students, isolated from family and friends in madrasa, reach puberty and their hormones are active, there are no girls to date. Instead, Muslim clerics easily shift to focusing the male student’s attention on Koranic verse that promises sex in heaven with dark-eyed houris. Students can only fantasize about martyrdom followed by the sexual release Muhammad promised. This is an unspeakably cruel brainwashing technique , and the Koran is its perfect guidebook.”

    In short, Saudi Arabia is very guilty of promoting Islamic terrorism

      Hi Walter. In trying to verify some of your citations in “As the Quran instructs, for example 2:191., 5:33. 9:5,111,112,123 47:4,89”, a mistyping led me (kismet!) to Quran 4:47, “O you who were given the Scripture, believe in what We have sent down [to Muhammad], confirming that which is with you, before We obliterate faces and turn them toward their backs or curse them as We cursed the sabbath-breakers. And ever is the decree of Allah accomplished.”

      This provokes the reader’s reaction, “What the hell does that even *mean*?” Apart from the constant problem of determining the antecedents of pronouns like “them”, what is “that which is with you” which is to be confirmed? Some doctrine? And once you confirm this, Allah (that’s who “We” is, right?) will “obliterate faces”. How will Allah “obliterate faces”? Something like the Nazi face-melting in this video clip? What does it mean to turn a face toward the face’s back? And why would Allah curse anybody (= ask a higher power to harm that person)? To whom does Allah, the Supreme Being of the Universe, curse?

    This new information further proves and exposes e Islamic kingdom of Saudi Arabia has not and will not spare any of its vast oil wealth as to use its financial resources to fund and promote the advancement of Islam by and through the jihad. By this it means both the stealth jihad and even the subtle support violent jihad.

    As explained, for example in the book HOW ISLAM PLANS TO CHANGE THE WORLD by William Wagner. For on pages 109, 110. The reader is informed that “The Wall Street journal on April 15, 2003 published an article titled ‘In law Seminars, A Saudi Group Spreads Extremism.’ The article began by saying ‘In late February more than 300 young men from across Europe gathered for a weekend seminar on Islamic Law put on by Al-Waqf al-Islaami Foundation.’ The article went on to explain that the most famous graduates from the seminar were half a dozen members of the group of young men from Hamburg, Germany, who plotted the September 11, attacks. The language of the was Dutch, but ‘the message was imported from Saudi Arabia, via Saudi books and lecturers who taught a strict orthodox interpretation of Islam.’ “

    Further on the very same page of 110 the information is given that “TIME MAGAZINE , in an article on Saudi Arabia: Inside the Kingdom,’ stated ‘Apart from channeling money to foundations that have assisted terrorist groups, Saudis have for years supported institutions abroad the propagate Wahhabism.’”

    In addition to all this, in the book of the title of THE HISTORY OF JIHAD FROM MUHAMMAD TO ISIS, by Robert Spencer on pages 333 through 337.Mr Spencer provides valid information of the subject of “ The Saudi involvement in September 11.”

    So with that Islamic regime of Saudi Arabia and its oil money support the different type of the jihad, both stealth and the violent kind, with its Islamic agenda advancement and spread , influence and infiltration of the Western nations ,this kingdom of Saudi Arabia is no friend at all of America or any other country of the West.

    And was this not the same President who just got through extolling all the benefits of however many millions of dollars in weaponry the American taxpayer is buying these same Saudis? This, despite the fact that the Persian-proxy Houthis seem able to penetrate Saudi security and blow things up pretty much whenever they want to. Oh and ask any Muslim, no Arabs or Muslims had anything to do with 9/11, it was all a colossal plot by the Jews to make them look bad.

  5. Infidel says

    Dec 26, 2019 at 9:17 pm

    That’s an interesting illustration of the president’s transactional attribute. On one hand, he holds the fort in favor of the Saudis getting all the military hardware they want to buy to run the war in Yemen – over the bipartisan objections of the Senate. On the other hand, he’s willing to make the FBI reveal what it knows about the Saudi involvement in getting its citizens evacuated. I wonder how far it goes: will it also declassify the redacted parts of the 9/11 report? Also, will it also reveal the involvement of some parts of the Saudi royal family (not necessarily the top) w/ some of the 15 Saudi hijackers?

    My prediction: it will be like the Khasshoggi sentencing in Saudi Arabia: rivals of MbS who had anything to do w/ this will be implicated, named and maybe even extradited by Saudi Arabia, so that support for MbS in Washington is restored, after the beating his persona took after the Khasshoggi murder

      Don’t hold your breath with deep-state. never-Trump, coup conspirator Christopher Wray at the helm of the FBI.

      • Infidel says

        Dec 27, 2019 at 1:30 pm

        That appointment has been baffling, especially w/ Wray being one of the few holdouts when Barr, Durham and Horowitz have all been highlighting the abuses in the FBI. The disgrace is that under first Mueller and then Comey, the FBI has become more similar to the KGB than it ever was – nailing people from Martha Stewart to Roger Stone for crimes either never committed, or at worst process crimes i.e. crimes that didn’t exist at the time the investigation started

    A timely article. KSA citizens have the right to rape, assault and murder whoever they like in Canada. When Canadian authorities confiscate the passports of such animals, as if by magic they receive new passports and escape the country.

    Use a small army of CPAs and attorneys to investigate every jihad attack. Follow 100% of the money back to its source. Track anyone involved, in any way. Then use the RICO statutes to jail, confiscated, and shut down all involved. That includes:

    M1 – Shutting down mosques involved in any jihad attack.
    M2 – Arrest mullahs involved.
    M3 – Follow, and confiscate, all jihad money back to its source.

    What world is this that the then president of the USA, George Bush, consorts with suspected SA individuals of Islam involved, and lends aid and comfort to such an enemy — whose clear adherence to a system that murders plane loads of men women and children is part of their operative plan to progress — to a slaughter of such proportions!
    I do hope Bush faces maximum punishment as a traitor, before the fool dies and that’s even if no direct evidence of the SA people in question prove no direct hand in it. It was TREASON. I don’t care to hear the excuses and claims of ‘national interests’ — it’s immaterial to the crime. Traitors need to die or this cancer of Islam will destroy the West. Sanity itself is at risk. Let the world have a Islamic colonectomy!
    What more do all these Western governments need after decades in evidence of Islam’s demented nature to see that Islam isn’t manageable with ordinary law enforcement?
