FBI Docs: Alleged Terrorist Training Compound Discovered in Rural Texas
2014-02-19
HT: AoS
[PJMedia] The Clarion Project has unearthed Federal Bureau of Investigations documents detailing a 22-site network of terrorist training villages sprawled across the United States. According to the documents, the FBI has been concerned about these facilities for about 12 years, but cannot act against them because the U.S. State Department has not yet declared that their umbrella group, MOA/Jamaat ul-Fuqra, as a Foreign Terrorist Organization.

MOA stands for Moslems of the Americas, which is linked to radical Pak Moslem holy man Sheikh Mubarak Ali Gilani. The FBI documents that Clarion has obtained show that the group is headquartered in the well known "Islamberg" compound in rural New York. The facility in Texas is known as "Mahmoudberg." It's located in Brazoria county on County Road 3 near Sweeny. Sweeny is in far south Texas, southwest of Houston. The town of about 4,000 is a little under three hours' drive from the state capital in Austin.

#10  If they let it go it maybe because they are running the show from the inside.

If so, that's the problem right there. Things have a way of getting away from the feebs. They should just do their job.

#9  If they let it go it maybe because they are running the show from the inside. Just ask Michael Bracia how that works.

#8  We've been watching them here at Rantburg since 2005. (archive search). They are not only in a number of compounds here in America, but elsewhere as well, and Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl was on his way to meet their leader in Pakistan when he was kidnapped and killed by Khalid Sheik Mohammed. A lot of their members converted in prison, subsequently reapplying their white collar and blue collar criminal skills in support of jihad, including credit card fraud. They are also connected to National of Islam gangs, and have sent large numbers of men to the hot spots of international jihad.

That the FBI let this go on for so long because of office politics is unconscionable.

#7  Not a good idea to put it in Texas. The national guard... which include a fucking armored brigade... would be called out if things got bad with the order to assault the compound and "go nuts".

#6  This is actually old news. ul-Fuqra has been a known entity for some time. IMHO, the group should not be labeled an FTO, but rather a DTO. I'm guessing some panties got tied in wad over that prospect.

#5  Rural Texas is not the safest place to set up an anti-American terrorist compound.

#4  More on the group: Jamaat al-Fuqra, ISVG (Institute for the Study of Violent Groups) website and Law Enforcement Today and Jamaat al-Fuqra website

#3  Obviously not Tea Partys or they'd have no trouble raiding them.

Send in the EPA & IRS to audit the whole place. Those agencies certainly have the needed firepower and can make up the laws as they go.

#2  Sounds like an "Anti terrorist camp".
