There are Muslim communities in the United States that are operating in defiance of the United States Constitution and invoking sharia law on the communities such Dearborn Michigan . Although many states have passed legislation banning sharia law in those states it is by no means comprehensive. The public by and large have been unaware that there are terror cells in the United States Our administration has a hands off policy and the FBI does not have the authority to investigate because of rules promulgated by this administration.
The State Department under the banner of freedom of religion has not allowed any movement to investigate and close down the cells. In a statement from January 2002 the State Department said Jamaat al-Fuqra has never been designated as a Foreign Terrorist Organization". It is widely known where these cells are and who is in control of facilitating the training and financing of these cells. Because of the false interpretation of religious freedom these cells have been allowed to grow and move to other locations without any interference from law enforcement. Under the guise of political correctness appeasement of these groups has
placed the American people in danger nationwide.
The State Department in 1998 said the Jamaat al-Fuqra is a terrorist organization that seeks to purify Islam through violence. In 2002 the State Department took Jamaat al-Fuqra off the terrorist list because of inactivity". In 2014 many Anti-Islamist Muslim organization in the US and Canada requested that the State Department once again designate the organization as a Foreign Terrorist Organization.
Daniel Pearl a journalist who attempted to interview Mubarak Gilani the leader of Jamaat Al-Fuqra was kidnapped and killed by this organization. In 2003 a Jamaat al-Fuqra member was one of two men that pled guilty to trying to blow up the Brooklyn Bridge.
These followers of Islam contend they are not accountable to American laws and will not allow law enforcement to enter the compounds to assure that they are not cells of an Islamic terrorist group just waiting the order to start a jihad of great devastation across the country. The assistance they receive from those of like minds in the country and from overseas counterparts has not been cut off and at the present time not even been investigated.
Of course Jamaat Al Fuqra is not mentioned in any of the statements made about these Muslim terrorist compounds here in the United States. At Gilanis urging it has renamed itself Muslims of America" (MOA).This was confirmed in the trial of Glen Ford a terrorist aligned with Jamaat Al-Fuqraand involved in a thwarted bomb plot in Canada.
MOA at the present time is operating at least twenty two known terrorist cells across the nation. There could be as many if not more sleeper cells that law enforcement does not know about.
The leader Sheikh Gilani as explained above is the founder of Jamaat al Fuqra. The group is of Pakistani origin and the name change reflects an operational push into the United States. Gilani originally from Pakistan emigrated to Brooklyn in about 1980 becoming Imam of a mosque where mostly of African American Muslims. While there he recruited members for the jihad in Afghanistan going so far as to visit prisons to recruit for the jihad.
Gilani under the auspices of MOA then set up the first compound in New York. At the same time a new offshoot of MOA the United Muslim Christian Forum was started with the purpose of finding common ground between Muslims and Christians." This forum proclaims that Muslims and Christians should unite in their hatred for the Jews.
At present there are an estimated 22 to 35 compounds set up all over the country.
In 1989 a storage area belonging to the Colorado compound was raided. Federal authorities found firearms explosive devices forged documents military manuals and a list of potential targets.
MOA and its compounds across the country is a terrorist organization in the heart of the country. They have the ability to carry out devastating terror attacks and yet are being allowed to carry on the training of jihadists without any interruption by anyone in this administration.
Although Gilani has stated that the communities" are not breeding grounds of jihadists he has been taped discussing as having one of the most advanced training courses in Islamic warfare. In 1993 one of the World Trade Center bombers Clement Rodney Hampton was trained by the MOA near Harrisburg Pennsylvania.
The FBI have talked about the factors that lead to this position that the United States finds itself in. First is the political correctness and public policy that inhibits the FBI from asking questions or investigating the compounds. Second. Is that Islamophobia as forced on the American people by organizations like CAIR has blunted any appearance of wanting to investigate Islam in any form. Third MOA has set up charity fronts to mask what they do and to play the victim when the subject is brought up.
A lawsuit was brought against the Christian action Network (CAN) reports that showed that MOA trains men to become jihadists for the upcoming attack on America that MOA has illegal weapons. That these communities" are self contained and no outside interference is tolerated. These communities consider themselves about federal state or local laws and follow sharia law. And that MOA is still recruiting from local prisons through the United Muslim Christian Forum as a way to obtain more members for the jihadist cause.
The MOA website has been sanitized from prying eyes. Even so many of the postings on the website are a cause for concern.
Following are examples from the Jihad Watch website:
On Jews
Jews are an example of human Satans. This is why Jews are the founders of Satan worship and Masonic lodges and are now trying to take over the entire globe in which the global religion is to be Satanism….In the US there are now thousands of temples where Satan is worshipped. This Satanism has now become the ultimate tool in the hands of Zionists.
-- Satanism MOA Web site
Every God-fearing individual whether in America or abroad must become informed of the heinous barbaric and purely sub-human nature of Zionism and all of its offshoots. It is the duty of every individual to become familiar with the nature and ways of Zionism and become educated to the whims and craftiness of these devils…

On Christians
If you ask any Christian What is meant by belief in God Almighty? he will not be able to give you any rational explanation. On the contrary he will confuse you and damage you psychologically…Christians would rather submit to the theory that they have killed their god and now believe in the supremacy and power of Satan. Try to imagine the type of mentality that is build upon such a belief: Masochism suicide Satanism…they confuse the matter still more by introducing the fable of the Risen Christ but have never produced a solitary witness to testify that he or she actually saw Christ ascending…One certain factor in the propagation of this nonsense is that the priests want poor simple folk to believe in Jesus as the Son of God whereas Jesus himself never proclaimed to be such… The vicars of Christ after having completely confused western man in the matter of belief use this method to manipulate the people in such a way that the priests are accepted as gods who have the power to send people to Heaven Hell or atone their sins… By having put their god on a crucifix as opposed to executing Satan they not only have blasphemed against the Wisdom and Judgment of God Almighty but reduced Him to a role of subservience to Satan. Similarly by attributing the words of the Bible to God they also attribute all their fallacies inaccuracies irrationalities lies and contradictions to Him!

These are the challenges we face in the modern world. The administration isnt allowing anything to be done to thwart this danger to the citizens and the national security of this country. Federal and state laws need to be passed to allow the law enforcement officers on a local and national level to shine the light of day on the critical threat to the country.
