Homegrown Jihad, The Terrorist Camps Around the U.S.

Who would have ever thought it possible that Islamic terrorist training camps would be operating with impunity within the United States? Those very people and agencies sworn to protect and defend the United States of America, have done little or nothing to shut down the Jamaat ul-Fuqra Warfare Training Camps according to Martin Mawyer, Writer and Director of the documentary film: Homegrown Jihad, the Terrorist Camps around U.S.

Government officials and officers of the law including the FBI have video tape and surveillance of terrorist training camps in Colorado, Massachusetts, Washington State, Florida, Maryland, New Mexico, California, Illinois, Arizona, Michigan, Oregon, Texas, Alabama, Oklahoma, Virginia, Pennsylvania, Delaware, West Virginia, South Carolina and Georgia!

The proof is in the video contained within this documentary film: Mubarak Sheikh Gilani of Pakistani origin has since 1980 been recruiting jihadist, in large part from the criminal population and setting up these 35 isolated compounds in rural America. Known in Pakistan and the Muslim world as the organization, Jamaat ul-Fuqra and in the U.S. as Muslims of America, video smuggled out of meetings where Sheikh Gilani, a known terrorist sympathizer, is heard proudly saying his camps are “the most advanced training camps on Islamic warfare”. Joe Kaufman the Chairman of Americans Against Hate, the founder of CAIR Watch, and an investigative journalist for FrontPage Magazine attests to the fact that overwhelmingly, the majority of Muslims organization in the U.S. are affiliated with overseas terrorists.

Muslims of America/Jamaat ul-Fuqra’s motto as reported by The Weekly Standard, March 18, 2002 as told to them by Peter Leitner, of The Higgins Counter Terrorism Institute:

Come join our troops and army, Says our Sheik Gilani
Prepare to sacrifice your head, A true believer is never dead.
Say “Victory is in the Air”, The Kafirs blood will not be spared


The stated GOAL of Jamaat ul-Fuqra is to purify Islam through violence. “All those who do not follow the tenets of Islam are enemies”.

In the video Soldiers of Allah, as they describe themselves, are seen being trained in tactics of guerilla warfare such as camouflage and stealth, scaling mountains, subduing enemies, murdering guards, hijacking cars, kidnapping, weapons training (Skeikh Gilani is seen firing weapons and giving many of the instructions in Muslim Warfare.) “Act like a friend…then kill him just like in the book (The Qur’an)*

You may remember Daniel Pearl, the Wall Street Journalist who was beheaded on his way to a meeting with Sheikh Gilani who had befriended him. Richard Reed the attempted, but failed, “shoe-bomber was a disciple of Sheikh Gilani and a member of Muslims of America/Jamaat ul-Fuqra, as well as several convicted Muslims on charges ranging from drug running, frauds and scams, gun smuggling, fires, bombings (power station, Hari Chrisna Temple and other) assassinations and murder, as reported by The Regional Organized Crime Information Center ® and the U.S. Department of Justice, Special Report.
In 1991 as told by the Attorney General of Colorado, FBI officials brought to the attention of Colorado leaders and law enforcement proof of a Muslim Warfare Training camp in Buena Vista, Trout Creek, Colorado. The FBI told of a storage locker, in Colorado Spring, belonging to Jamaat ul-Fuqra members that contained explosives, mercury switches for bombs, bomb charges, assassination packages, bomb making instructions, fake drivers licenses, fake birth certificates, silhouette targets market “hostages”, instructions on How to assassinate specific “moderate” Muslims who later where found assassinated in the very specific way of the found instructions (to be killed inside of mosques – so much for the sanctity of those holy places!), and plans to attack Buckley Air Force Base and several armories. When Governor Romer, asked for assistance from the FBI to close down these terrorist camps, they were told that orders from Washington would not allow them to help and thereafter pulled out of the investigation. Nevertheless, Colorado authorities were able to arrest and convict Muslims of America/Jamaat ul-Fuqra members, James D. Williams, James I. Upshur Jr. Chris Childs, and Edward Flinton after state authorities raided the camp.

What about the remaining camps? Neighbors of the camps report to authorities that they have been threaten verbally and with weapons, have heard the guns and the bombs, and have seen armed guards at the gates of these compounds, but authorities generally respond that they are afraid of being sued by the Islamists if they take any action against them. Neighbors ask “why are these people even in this country? It’s clear they hate America and Americans. Can’t something be done to close them down?

I WONDER: Where is Homeland Security on this? Will B.O. instruct law enforcement, especially the FBI to close down these Islamic Warfare Training Camps, seize their assets and deport the Sheikh? Is there a camp near you? It is said there are camps outside of L.A., San Francisco, and Commerce CA, Portland OR and Seattle, WA. If the so-called Fairness Doctrine is enacted, will we even be allowed to talk about this? And will any of the released detainees from Gitmo end up as instructors at these camps?

*For further reference on taking or rather not taking kafirs as friends or on deceiving kafirs as friends, read the Qur’an, Suras 1:5-7 3:10, 3:28, 3:85, 3:118, 5:51, 5:80,7:44, 9:23, 53:29. Many of these are Madian (written in Medina) which abrogates earlier Suras from Mohammad’s comparatively non-violent attempted conversions period. These Suras show an intolerant distinction between one’s own identity group and those outside of it. Moral comparison based on this distinction. Kafirs or unbelievers are described by Mohammad as “the vilest of animals”, “losers.”, “dogs” and “pigs”. Christians and Jews are hated by Allah to the extent that they are destined for eternal doom as a result of their beliefs. It would make no sense for Mohammad to then recommend them to be taken in as friends by Muslims. In fact, the Qur’an plainly commands believers not to take unbelievers as friends.
