The Washington Times<\/a> posted an article on Tuesday about President Obama’s<\/a> summit on Tuesday aimed at countering ‘violent extremism.’<\/p>\n

The article reports:<\/p>\n

The summit is aimed at combating the root causes of terrorism, and President Obama and his top advisers are determined not to portray extremists as motivated by radical Islam. But some critics said the administration is partnering in its three-city pilot program a group called the Islamic Society of Boston<\/a> and its political arm, the Muslim American Society<\/a>, which have ties to individuals convicted of terrorist activities.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Charles Jacobs, president of the Boston<\/a>-based Americans for Peace and Tolerance<\/a>, said the ISB<\/a> has connections to at least a dozen extremists who have either been killed, imprisoned, deported or sought as fugitives on terror-related charges, including the Tsarnaev brothers accused of the Boston Marathon bombings in 2013. The administration also has started pilot outreach programs to discourage terrorism recruitment in Los Angeles and Minneapolis.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cMost everybody [connected to the Boston mosque] has been and is moderate,\u201d Mr. Jacobs said in an interview. \u201cThe problem is the leadership. The leadership of the Islamic Society of Boston<\/a> is replete with people in the past and now who have connections to terror.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

One of the things to look at when evaluating a mosque in America is who paid for the mosque and who is funding it. Unfortunately, many of the seemingly innocent mosques in America are simply recruiting stations for jihad. A book entitled Muslim Mafia<\/span><\/a> by P. David Gaubatz lists the Muslim American Society as a front group for the Muslim Brotherhood. That is the group the Obama Administration is planning on working with. That is a really bad idea.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, in the world of ‘violent extremism,’ America is at risk. Yesterday the Clarion Project website<\/a> posted a story about a jihadist enclave in Texas.<\/p>\n

The article reports:<\/p>\n

The enclave belongs to the network of Muslims of the Americas<\/a>, a radical group linked to a Pakistani militant group called Jamaat ul-Fuqra<\/a>. Its members are devoted followers of Sheikh<\/a> Mubarak Ali Gilani<\/a>, an extremist cleric in Pakistan.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The organization says it has a network of 22 \u201cvillages\u201d around the U.S., with Islamberg<\/a> as its main headquarters in New York. Clarion Project<\/em> obtained secret MOA<\/a> footage<\/a> showing female members receiving paramilitary training at Islamberg. It was featured<\/a> on the Kelly File<\/em> on FOX News Channel in October. A second MOA tape<\/a> released by Clarion<\/em> shows its spokesman declaring the U.S. to be a Muslim-majority country<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n

A 2007 FBI record <\/a>states that MOA members have been involved in at least 10 murders, one disappearance, three firebombings, one attempted firebombing, two explosive bombings and one attempted bombing. It states:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cThe documented propensity for violence by this organization supports the belief the leadership of the MOA extols membership to pursue a policy of jihad<\/a> or holy war against individuals or groups it considers enemies of Islam, which includes the U.S. Government. Members of the MOA are encouraged to travel to Pakistan to receive religious and military\/terrorist training from Sheikh Gilani.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

The document also says that, “The MOA is now an autonomous organization which possesses an infrastructure capable of planning and mounting terrorist campaigns overseas and within the U.S.”<\/strong><\/p>\n

It is time for the Obama Administration to get their head out of the sand and understand that it is their responsibility to protect Americans from terror. I don’t care what they call it or don’t call it, this enclave is a threat to Americans. Please follow the link above to read the entire article and see the history of this group. We can pay attention, or we can do 9\/11 all over again. The responsibility belongs with the Obama Administration.<\/p>\n
