Thursday, December 5, 2002 WHISTLEBLOWER MAGAZINE Terrorists in our midst How and why Islamists, jihadists, sleeper cells are flocking to U.S. Posted: December 5, 2002 11:25 a.m. Eastern © 2002 WorldNetDaily.com Shortly after the release of his explosive PBS documentary "Jihad in America" – featuring video footage of terrorists and their supporters holding boisterous fund-raising rallies throughout America's heartland -- investigative journalist and terrorism expert Steven Emerson was informed by federal officials that an Islamist death squad had been dispatched to kill him. He should leave his home immediately, he was told. Ever since then, the former CNN reporter, working full-time on tracking the spread of terrorist networks to American shores, has ceased to maintain a home address, varies his routine, takes a different route to work each day and practices other "living- underground" techniques. Emerson tells his amazing story in the December edition of WND's acclaimed monthly Whistleblower magazine, in an issue titled "TERRORISTS AMONG US." With the help of a staff of researchers, Emerson has followed the terrorists' monetary sources, monitored their attacks and plans, exposed their ties to charitable foundations and assisted a variety of government agencies in the battle against them. "What we discovered," he says, "is that, indeed, international terrorist organizations of all sorts had set up shop here in America. They often took advantage of religious, civic, or charitable organizations. Usually this was more than enough to fool the public, the police, and especially naïve leaders of religious or educational institutions, who were more than willing to encourage and sponsor these groups in the name of 'multiculturalism' and 'diversity.'" Meanwhile, he adds, U.S.-based terrorists have used these organizations to ferry equipment to Middle Eastern terror groups, to provide financial support to the families of suicide bombers, coordinate efforts with other terrorist networks around the world, and ultimately, he says, "to plan and support terrorist acts in the Untied States." Yet, despite the extreme threat of further terror attacks on American soil, the U.S. government and much of the news media seem unwilling or unable to confront the radioactive religious core of the current conflict. As expert Mideast analyst Daniel Pipes notes in this issue of Whistleblower: "A virtual taboo exists in official circles about Islam's role in the violence; in the words of one senior State Department official, this subject 'has to be tiptoed around.' As a result, the violence is treated as though it comes out of nowhere, the work of (in Bush's description) 'a bunch of cold-blooded killers.'" "This issue of Whistleblower," says WND Editor and CEO Joseph Farah, "is free of the politically correct sensitivities of the State Department. It succeeds in effectively connecting the dots and showing the relationships between al-Qaida, other organized groups, 'sleeper cells,' so-called 'freelancers' like sniper suspect John Muhammad, the Saudi rulers who fund radicalized Islamic schools worldwide, including throughout the U.S., and much more. If you really want to understand the threat America is now facing, read this issue." -- Outgoing mail is certified virus free Scanned by Norton AntiVirus Don't you see that all these Osama Bin Ladens consider themselves authorized to kill you and your children because you drink alcohol, because you don't grow the long beard and refuse the chador or the burkah, because you go to the theater and to the movies, because you love music and sing a song, because you dance and watch television, because you wear the miniskirt or the shorts, because on the beach and by the swimming pool you sunbathe almost naked or naked, because you make love when you want with whom you want, or because you don't believe in God? ~~''The Rage and the Pride,'' Oriana Fallaci <A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/">www.ctrl.org</A> DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.
