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

Judge finds that Muslima arrested in New Mexico jihad compound has “mental disease,” unfit to stand trial

Dec 1, 2019 9:00 am By Robert Spencer

Here we see the all-purpose “mental illness” deflection being used to aid a jihadi in evading responsibility for her crimes. It has happened many times before. What do you bet they all walk before this is over? Given the current political climate regarding jihad terrorism, this is quite possible, even likely. “Terrorism suspect hospitalized,” by […]

May 12, 2019 10:30 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

The FBI has uncovered a homegrown terror training camp in Alabama. “The property, similar to another compound in New Mexico the group is now linked to where federal prosecutors say Wahhaj and four other suspects were training children to carry out deadly terror attacks on American soil.” The children were said to be living under […]

New Mexico Muslims who plotted jihad massacres linked to CAIR and Democrats

Mar 21, 2019 9:00 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

“A federal grand jury in New Mexico has indicted five Muslims who allegedly trained children to carry out school massacres on terrorism-related offenses, conspiracy to commit murder and kidnapping.” The children also lived under abusive conditions. The leader of the group is Siraj Ibn Wahhaj, “the son of Imam Siraj Wahhaj, a former board member […]

New Mexico jihad compound members charged with “conspiring to attack and kill officers and employees of the US”

Mar 15, 2019 8:00 am By Robert Spencer

They were also charged with kidnapping. This group was planning to train children to become school shooters, all in the cause of jihad. “Feds charge 5 from New Mexico compound, where 11 children were found, with terror, kidnapping offenses,” by Kathleen Joyce, Fox News, March 14, 2019: The residents of a makeshift New Mexico compound […]

Rancher at US/Mexico border: “We’ve found prayer rugs out here. It’s unreal.”

Jan 16, 2019 4:00 pm By Robert Spencer

But remember: anyone who thinks there is a national security aspect to securing the Southern border is just a racist, bigoted “Islamophobe.” “Border rancher: ‘We’ve found prayer rugs out here. It’s unreal,’” by Anna Giaritelli, Washington Examiner, January 16, 2019: LORDSBURG, N.M. — Ranchers and farmers near the U.S.-Mexico border have been finding prayer rugs […]

New Mexico jihadis’ defense attorney: “If these were white Christians…no one would bat an eye”

Sep 16, 2018 1:43 pm By Robert Spencer

“Federal prosecutors say that between Dec. 2017 and August 2018, the group, who are either siblings or related by marriage, had ‘a common plan to prepare for violent attacks on government, military, educational and financial institutions.’” Yeah, if they were white Christians, no one would care about that. “Federal Judge Denies New Mexico Compound Residents […]

Federal grand jury indicts New Mexico compound jihadis, alleges they planned terror attacks

Sep 12, 2018 12:30 pm By Robert Spencer

It is good to see the feds get one right for a change, and correct the outrageous mishandling of this case by New Mexico authorities. “Federal Grand Jury Indicts NM Compound Suspects, Alleges They Planned Terror Attacks,” Breaking 911, September 11, 2018: ALBUQUERQUE – A federal grand jury sitting in Albuquerque, N.M., has indicted Jany […]

Teen from New Mexico Muslim compound says he was trained for jihad against non-Muslims

Sep 2, 2018 11:03 am By Robert Spencer

“Defense lawyers have said that the five adults were exercising their constitutional rights to practice their religion and own firearms, and that the group is being discriminated against because they are black and Muslim.” This is going to have to be decided: does the constitutional right to practice one’s religion allow one to plot the […]

FBI arrests five New Mexico compound jihadis days after multiple charges were dropped

Sep 1, 2018 9:28 am By Robert Spencer

The questions about this case are multiplying. Days after the initial arrests, authorities bulldozed the compound, likely destroying a great deal of important evidence. Then initial charges were dropped on a technicality: prosecutors had not met a required deadline. Were the prosecutors really that incompetent, or were they trying to make this case go away? […]

Judge dismisses all charges against 3 New Mexico compound jihadis on a technicality

Aug 29, 2018 4:11 pm By Robert Spencer

Judge Emilio Chavez “said it was a very difficult decision to drop the charges but the rule left him with no option.” Have you ever noticed that these technicalities always seem to go in one direction only? “Judge dismisses all charges against 3 ‘extremist Muslim’ New Mexico compound suspects,” by Elizabeth Zwirz, Fox News, August […]

CNN worries that New Mexico jihad compound “might contribute to a rise in racism and Islamophobia”

Aug 27, 2018 3:32 pm By Robert Spencer

“Many are quick to distance the state’s countercultural vibe from the compound and its inhabitants, who are accused of training the children to commit mass shootings. But they also fear that the publicity around a case infused with allegations of terrorism, child abuse and faith healing might contribute to a rise in racism and Islamophobia.” […]

Muslims in New Mexico jihad compound allegedly planned jihad massacre at Atlanta hospital

“Frank Fisher, an FBI spokesman in Albuquerque, said the agency cannot confirm or deny whether a person is listed in a terrorist screening database. He declined comment on the officer’s claim that local authorities were unable to intervene because of a federal investigation. ‘It would be inappropriate for us to comment at this time,’ he […]

Authorities bulldoze New Mexico jihad compound, leave ammo, paperwork behind

Aug 17, 2018 8:15 am By Robert Spencer

Why did they leave paperwork behind? Might that paperwork be pertinent? Might some of it illuminate the motives and goals of the people in the compound? This is extraordinarily careless. Or is it that authorities want some of this evidence to go away, so as to downplay some aspects of this story and cause them […]

New Mexico compound jihadis released on bond after charges of racism and “Islamophobia”

Aug 13, 2018 9:48 pm By Robert Spencer

“Their lawyer argued that there was a double standard in the case because his clients were Muslims. He argued that if they had been Christian and white, ‘we might not be here today.’” Seriously? If they had been Christian and white, stockpiling weapons and plotting school shootings, with the ringleader being the son of one […]

Video: Imam whose son was training school shooters hits reporters on New Mexico compound: “they hate Islam”

Aug 10, 2018 3:23 pm By Robert Spencer

It’s noteworthy that AP would carry this story at all; certainly neither AP nor the rest of the establishment media is ever so solicitous of those whom they smear as “anti-Muslim” to allow us to tell our side of the story. But the imam Siraj Wahhaj is here engaging in some “war is deceit” action. […]

Imam whose son was training school shooters in New Mexico compound blames “mental disorder”

“’To me, obviously something happened – mental disorder, or something. This doesn’t seem like them,’ the imam said of his son and two daughters who were involved in the compound.” A mental disorder led his son to plot school shootings? Really? It’s clever of Wahhaj to claim this, when so many obvious jihad attacks are […]

“Yet instead of searching the property themselves, what did the FBI do? They asked the neighbor, Jason Badger, to wear a hidden camera and risk his life by approaching an armed, Islamic extremist compound.” The corruption and incompetence of the FBI continues to amaze and appall. Why didn’t the FBI go in? Were they afraid […]

Siraj Wahhaj is one of the most prominent and respected imams in the United States. His son, Siraj Ibn Wahhaj, was training children for jihad massacres. Is anyone in authority or in the establishment media going to ponder the implications of that? Almost certainly not. But you can be sure that if this were the […]
