FBI orders more US jihadis be put under 24/7 surveillance in wake of jihad shooting on AFDI free speech conference in Garland, Texas

49

If we had a responsible media, they would report more of the positive developments in light of the terror attack. The jihadists were the end of the line. By drawing them out, we exposed their network. And because we secured the perimeter, we were able to expose the network without getting anyone killed. The FBI are now going after the sources. They are gleaning intel from their computers as we speak. We smoked out a terror structure.

The FBI has put more American terror suspects under constant surveillance following the attack deadly on a “Draw Muhammad” competition.

Every city across US had “subjects of concern.”

The military is taking the threat seriously enough to raise the threat level to one of the highest levels it has reached since 911.

“FBI orders more US terror suspects be put under 24/7 surveillance in wake of ‘Draw Muhammad’ event shooting,” Daily Mail, May 8, 2015

Bureau believed to be keeping eye on ‘marginal’ and ‘borderline’ suspects

One official suggested the attack had created a sense of ‘panic’ and ‘crisis’

Another suggested every city across US had ‘subjects of concern’
US Military also stepped up security at bases to highest level in four years

The FBI has put more American terror suspects under constant surveillance following the attack deadly on a ‘Draw Muhammad’ competition.

Gunmen Elton Simpson and Nadir Soofi stormed the controversial competition in Garland, Texas, on Sunday while carrying explosives before they were shot dead by police.

Their actions have prompted the agency to keep a closer eye on ‘marginal’ or ‘borderline’ suspects in a bid to stop potential threats.

Reports suggest Simpson was under the FBI’s radar and had tipped off Garland Police three hours before he arrived at the Curtis Culwell Center in the Dallas suburb.

The FBI has put more terror suspects under constant surveillance following the attack on a 'Draw Muhammad' competition in Garland, Texas, which left two gunmen dead and a security guard wounded

The FBI has put more terror suspects under constant surveillance following the attack on a ‘Draw Muhammad’ competition in Garland, Texas, which left two gunmen dead and a security guard wounded

A senior official told ABC News: ‘We do not want to risk another marginal, homegrown extremist who was viewed as dangerous going active.’

Another senior official told the station there was a sense of ‘panic’ and ‘crisis’ inside the bureau as their infrastructure is ill-equipped to deal with the flow of homegrown terrorists.

One other suggested that ‘every city has a subject or subjects of concern’.

The FBI had already identified the contest as a potential target for violence because of its incendiary nature.

Simpson, previously convicted in a terrorism-related investigation, had come under new federal scrutiny in recent months related to online posts expressing interest in jihad.

When the FBI learned that he could be heading toward the event, the agency sent an intelligence bulletin to police in Garland, including a picture and other information, ‘even though we didn’t have reason to believe that he was going to attack the event.

In fact, we didn’t have reason to believe that he had left Phoenix,’ Comey said.

The FBI had been monitoring the event, even establishing a command post at its Dallas field office, based on concerns about the potential for violence. Drawings such as the ones featured at the event are deemed insulting to many followers of Islam and have sparked violence around the world.

Mainstream Islamic tradition holds that any physical depiction of the Prophet Muhammad, even a respectful one, is blasphemous and is punishable by the death penalty in Sharia Law.

Earlier today it was announced U.S. military has increased the threat level at bases across North America to its highest point in four years.

It means citizens will see more random bag and vehicle checks in the coming weeks and ‘heightened vigilance’ at airports.

simpson-soofi

Gunmen Elton Simpson and Nadir Soofi stormed the controversial competition in Garland, Texas, on Sunday while they were carrying explosives before they were shot dead by police. Reports suggest the FBI were aware of the pair before the attack

Though officials insist there is no specific threat to the nation, Army Col Steve Warren conceded the recent shoot-out at an anti-Muslim cartoon contest in Texas contributed to the decision.

On Thursday Peter Bergen of the New America Foundation think tank told a Senate hearing Sunday’s attack was a sign of things to comer in terms of homegrown terrorism.

‘Sunday’s attack is a harbinger of what we will see in the future.’

Authorities are investigating whether the pair were connected to ISIS, but there is no evidence either men travelled to Syria or Iraq.

The success of Islamic State in using social media as a recruiting tool was outlined at the hearing.

‘Its innovative and aggressive approach has afforded it an unprecedented level of success, and its activities will likely provide a template for future extremist initiatives,’ said J.M. Berger, an analyst at the Brookings Institution think tank.

Among more traditional recruiting methods, Islamic State has pursued purely online recruiting initiatives, he testified.

Berger said the militant group’s supporters online had openly urged attacks on Sunday’s event featuring Mohammad cartoons, which are considered offensive by many Muslims.

But it is extremely difficult to anticipate when such online ‘noise’ will translate into a specific attack, he said.

Instead of focusing on your cartoon event in Garland Texas should not someone be looking into the network of Muslim instigators who convey this bloodthirsty agitation all over the world? We had the same problem during the original Jyllands-Posten cartoon controversy. Some Danish imams spread the hate far and wide, even adding some truly offensive fake cartoons to stir up hate.

In other words, who in the Muslim community made sure Muslims from Arizona to Pakistan would be whipped into a murderous rage over a cartoon contest in Texas?

So many flapping media gums saying incitement to violence, but nobody actually investigating it in reality.

The FBI were not asleep. They were being Sanctioned by the Obama Administration. Mohamed Elibiary is the White House Muslim Advisor has seen to it that the Deleting of Islam’s violent past in FBI training Manuals for counter terrorism. Blocking planned indictments of CAIR and Americam Muslim Brotherhood, unindicted co conspiritors of the Holy Land Foundation. Requiring communication between agencies to be more Islam Friendly, Pushing for the prosecution of critizing Islam as hate crimes…Elibiary quote. “@1776son America and yes I do consider the United States of America an Islamic Country with an Islamically compliant constitution. Move On!” Plus Rep. Ellison, a Muslim, is on the Congressional Comittee that oversees American Intelligence Agencies. The Ticks are dug in pretty deep. They slow down and sanction and make new rules of procedure both internal and external for Intelligence Agencies. That’s acording to what I read. So those Bozo’s have clearance to classified material of the Intelligence Community, and a certain amount of control and influence.

I think, because of you and others like you, the real issues have finally met the light of day and the people are rising up. Most finally realize the risk of giving up free speech in order to be placate terrorists and knowing that it will only get worse if you give in to their demands. Americans will not give in to a religion that despises them. The tide is turning. Thanks Pamela!

“First they came for Pamela Geller, but I did not speak out, because I was not Pamela…”

Martin Niemöller (1892–1984) was a prominent Protestant pastor who emerged as an outspoken public foe of Adolf Hitler and spent the last seven years of Nazi rule in concentration camps.

Niemöller is perhaps best remembered for the quotation:

First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Socialist.

Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Trade Unionist.

Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Jew.

Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

Ill bet the ACLU and Obama put a stop to the surveillance. They did nothing to stop the Boston marathon bombing, nothing to stop Ali Muhammad brown, and nothing to stop the grandmother in Oklahoma from being murdered by a Muslim pig( workplace violence, really?). Obama wants it that way. As far as he is concerned, Muslims built the fabric of this nation. Sure, maybe a few overpriced carpets, the kind that rich people let their snappy mouthed little dogs pee on over at Park Avenue.
I know one thing for sure, this lady is carrying 4 extra clips on her belt. I intend on using every single round in the face of the first rag head who threatens me or mine. I suggest the rest of us do the same. This is OUR country, its time we took it back.

FBI warned law enforcement 2 hours prior to the attack, if not for this those cops might not have been Johnny on the spot, FBI gets credit and the local police, the event planners did nothing but hide inside the building and wait for the law enforcement to tell them it was safe!:-) This is like the story circulating Bush Jr got Bin Laden when it was on Obama’s watch not his, only thing Bush did was let him escape when they had him cornered in them mountains in Afghanistan, it is so funny when folks claim credit for others actions! All Geller and her “Klan” can get credit for is they are now on a Fatwa alert to be executed by any and all crazy terrorist in the world and in America, now that is what they can claim credit for!:-)

I hope the FBI are keeping Islamist infiltrators under watch. CAIR, LOONWATCH and Dr Rushdi Cader MD and Rumi Cader who are both on the board of the Umma Clinic. These traitors promote hate against the West, and whose
sole explanation of Islamism is to blame Zionists. This is often done under
the guise of civil rights and fighting ‘islamophobia’. Here is a board which
reveals anonymous blogs (anti West, anti Israel, anti Jewish) which have
prominent American Muslim lawyers, doctors, educators and educators behind
them.

http://bewareamericanislamists.runboard.com/f2

Take Loon Watch whose 2 anonymous moderators ‘Garibaldi’ and ‘Ilisha’ claim to fight hate and ‘islamophobia’. This is done by promoting anti Zionist, anti West and anti-semitic hate and promoting worldwide conspiracies of muslim victimisation. Their veteran writer and commenter DrM of drmaxtor.blogspot.com is notorious anti west, anti hindu anti-semite.

Evidence of Dr Maxtor excusing Jihadism and promoting
anti-semitism, anti-western,anti-hinduism all the while blaming Zionism for all the
ills in Islamic societies can be seen at his own nazi like blog and his
commenting history on Loonwatch https://www.google.co.uk/#newwindow=1&q=site:loonwatch.com+DrM

In one comment he says he wouldn’t treat Zionists. It is worth investigating how many Americans have died whilst being treated by him DrM AKA DrMaxtor real name is Dr Rushdi Cader

http://www.linkedin.com/pub/rushdi-cader/6a/a23/175
and he hides his real persona because he wouldn’t be able to teach law enforcement officers
http://www.swattrauma.com/PRACTI-SEAL/About_Us.html

The police who employed him have no idea of his underground Islamist activities.

Dr Rushdi Cader is a member of the Mosque of Nasreen, San Luis Obispo
http://mosqueofnasreen.org

Dr Rushdie Cader AKA Dr Maxtor AKA DrM is the founder of
the Umma Clinic in California. http://www.ummaclinic.org
which receives public funds. He is a UCLA graduate and he founded this Muslim
clinic
http://drmaxtor.blogspot.com/2006/10/ummah-community-clinic.html.

Wikipedia page for Umma Clinic
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UMMA_Community_Clinic

He is a Muslim activist well known amongst American Muslims (urls to Ikhras and Muslim Matters follow)

Muslim Matters speaks glowingly of his anti-semitic’Judeofascism’ posts
http://muslimmatters.org/2007/10/21/bigotry-awareness-week/

“Check out Judeofascist Awareness Week at my blog.
… I agree – DrM’s Judeofascist posts are awesome – very
enlightening and right on point”
http://ikhras.com/mona-eltahawy-slightly-improving/
DrM. August 2, 2010 at 10:27 PM. Asalamu Aliakum! Well said. Glad to … who tried to hijack and misrepresent Islam for their Judeofascist masters. …

DrM he is careful to hide his hatred of the West preferring to spew his bile anonymously as DrM at his own blog drmaxtor.blogspot.com and since 2007 DrM has been a heavy contributor to Loon Watch and has ceased updating his own blog.

He now posts regularly at Loon Watch. You can see his hate filled commenting history at Loon Watch by doing a simple google search or by looking at

DrM does not reveal his real life identity at Loon Watch or at his blog where he claims to write about medical issues and ‘muslim’ issues. Loon Watch switched to using Disqus. DrM has now made his Disqus history private http://disqus.com/by/1DrM/

Dr Rushdi Cader and his wife Nisha Cader featured in Saudi media
https://www.saudiaramcoworld.com/issue/200703/healing.south.central.htm

Facebook – UMMA Community Clinic
https://www.facebook.com/pages/UMMA-Community-Clinic/155816815511

DrM has also been cited approvingly at many anti-semitic sites including Stormfront:

SILVER BULLET GUN OIL, is a HIGHLY EFFECTIVE Counter-Islamic terrorist force multiplier. SILVER BULLET GUN OIL was designed specifically to put Demoralizing FEAR and TERROR into SUPPOSEDLY “Fearless” Islamo-Fascist terrorists. It was created with the “TRUE BELIEVER” in mind. According to the Koran, Allah states, “Any of my followers contaminated by swine at the time of
his death will be denied entry to my paradise forever, I HATE THE STENCH OF SWINE.”

HOW does SILVER BULLET GUN OIL work? SILVER BULLET GUN OIL ONTAINS 13% USDA LIQUEFIED PIG FAT. The PIG FAT is mixed with our blended, hi-grade WEAPONS OIL designed for use in ALL FIREARMS. The oil is applied to the inside of the barrel of any firearm or weapons system. When fired, BULLETS are coated with SILVER BULLET GUN OIL containing the PIG FAT. The PIG FAT is transferred to anything the BULLETS STRIKE. The coating of OIL CONTAINING PIG FAT effectively DENIES entry to Allah’s Paradise ….
