Are Americans Willing To Connect The Dots?

Breitbart.com posted an article today about the beheading of a woman in Oklahoma on Thursday. The beheading may be an ‘isolated incident in the workplace (aka ‘workplace violence’), but the connections of Alton Nolen cause me to question why he was not being carefully watched. One of Aesop’s Fables ended with the statement, “You are known by the company you keep.” So what company was Alton Nolen keeping?

The former leader of the Islamic Society of Greater Oklahoma City, a group attended by Alton Nolen, was Imam Suhaib Webb.

According to Breitbart:

Imam Suhaib Webb has a history of ties to radicalism. FBI surveillance documents found that he was a known confidant of Al Qaeda mastermind Anwar al-Awlaki. Just two days before the September 11, 2001 attacks on America, Webb spoke at a fundraiser with Awlaki with hopes to raise funds for Atlanta-based H. Rap Brown, a man that shot and killed two police officers. The FBI documents also found that “Webb and Awlaki may be associated with the Muslim American Society,” which is a group described by the Investigative Project on Terrorism as being “founded as the United States Chapter of the Muslim Brotherhood.”

Imam Webb is now employed by the Islamic Society of Boston.

The article states:

The Islamic Society of Boston, which was attended by the Tsarnaev brothers during his tenure as Imam, has several within their ranks who have been charged with committing acts of Islamic Radicalism. The founder of the Mosque, Abdulrahman Alamoudi, was sentenced to 23 years in prison for his role for financing terror.

After the Boston Marathon bombings, Webb had initially been invited to an interfaith memorial at the Holy Cross Cathedral, where president Obama was scheduled to speak. Imam Webb’s invitation was then rescinded under mysterious circumstances at the last minute, according to reports.

It really is time to put FBI informers in Mosques to see what is being taught there. I realize you can’t arrest someone who hasn’t actually committed a crime, but there ought to be a way to stop radical Islamists from sharing their poison in the United States. If they are not citizens, they should be sent home. If they are citizens, they should be charged with plotting against America.
