The Obama regime will lead to the USA coming under attack from internal terrorists. Maybe the American people need a rude awakening?
The jihadi virus in our
jails

words long. Curiously, he chose not to spare an “a,” “and,” or “uh” on the New
York City terror bust that dominated headlines the morning of his Tuesday
address. Did the teleprompter run out of room?
After a year-long investigation launched by the
Bush administration, the feds cracked down on a ring of murder-minded black
Muslim jailhouse converts preparing to bomb two Bronx synagogues and “eager to
bring death to Jews.” They also planned to attack a New York National Guard air
base in Newburgh, New York, where the suspects lived and worshiped at a local
mosque.
Not one word from the president on the jihadists’
intended victims, motives, or means.
No comfort for the reported targets in the Big
Apple, still raw from the Scare Force One rattling that so vainly and recklessly
simulated 9/11.
No condemnation for the accused
plotters.
Why? Because doing so would force Obama to abandon
his cottony “extremist ideology” euphemisms and confront the concrete truth. To
borrow one of our obtuse president’s favorite clichés, “let me be perfectly
clear” about the reality Obama won’t touch: America faces an ongoing Islamic
jihad at home and abroad. Not merely “man-caused.” But Koran-inspired. Yet,
Obama refuses to spell out the centuries-old roots of the war that he claims
he’ll win faster, better, and cleaner than any of his
predecessors.
Moreover, his push to transfer violent Muslim
warmongers into our civilian prisons – where they have proselytized and plotted
with impunity– will only make the problem worse. A brief refresher course for
the Left’s amnesiacs about the festering jihadi virus in our jails and
overseas:
In 2005, Bush administration officials busted a
terrorist plot to attack infidels at military and Jewish sites in the Los
Angeles on the fourth anniversary of 9/11 or the Jewish holy days. It was
devised by militant Muslim converts of Jam’iyyat Ul-Islam Is-Saheeh (Arabic for
“Assembly of Authentic Islam”) who had sworn allegiance to violent jihad at
California’s New Folsom State Prison.
Jose Padilla, the convicted terror conspirator,
converted to Islam during a stint at a Broward County, Fla., jail and reportedly
fell in with terrorist recruiters after his release. Convicted Shoe Bomber
Richard Reid converted to Islam with the help of an extremist imam in a British
prison.
Aqil Collins, a self-confessed jihadist turned FBI
informant, converted to Islam while doing time in a California juvenile
detention center. At a terrorist camp in Afghanistan, he went on to train with
one of the men accused of kidnapping and beheading Wall Street Journal reporter
Daniel Pearl.
In East Texas, inmates were recruited with a
half-hour videotape featuring the anti-Semitic rants of California-based Imam
Muhammad Abdullah, who claims that the 9/11 terrorist attacks were actually
carried out by the Israeli and U.S. governments.
Federal corrections officials told congressional
investigators during the Bush years “that convicted terrorists from the 1993
World Trade Center bombing were put into their prisons’ general population ,
where they radicalized inmates and told them that terrorism was part of
Islam.”
Despite the insistence of Obama and the Jihadi
Welcome Wagon that our civilian prisons are perfectly secure, convicted terror
helper Lynne Stewart helped jailed 1993 World Trade Center bombing/NY landmark
bombing plot mastermind Omar Abdel-Rahman smuggle coded messages of Islamic
violence from the imprisoned sheik to outside followers in violation of an
explicit pledge to abide by her client’s court-ordered isolation.
As I’ve reported previously, U.S. Bureau of Prison
reports have warned for years that our civilian detention facilities are major
breeding grounds for Islamic terrorists. There are still not enough legitimately
trained and screened Muslim religious leaders to counsel an estimated 9,000 U.S.
prison inmates who demand Islamic services. Under the Bush administration, the
federal prison bureaucracy had no policy in place to screen out extremist,
violence-advocating Islamic chaplains; failed to properly screen the many
contractors and volunteers who help provide religious services to Islamic
inmates; and shied away from religious profiling.
What’s Obama’s plan to prevent the jihadi virus
from spreading? Washing hands and covering mouths won’t work for this disease.

More from the NYPost
on the jailhouse conversions of the would-be synagogue bombers:
Richard Williams said that his 32-year-old nephew
fell under the sway of dangerously radical Islamo-fascists while serving time on
drug charges — and that he became “brainwashed” after his mother died and his
ex-wife fought him for custody of their child.
“They played on his weaknesses and what was going
on with his family,” Richard said. “He was brainwashed and manipulated in the
system.”
Authorities say Onta Williams fell in with his
three alleged co-conspirators, James Cromitie, 45, David Williams, 28, and
37-year-old Laguerre Payen, at a Newburgh mosque, where they bonded when they
discovered they were all ex-cons.
Relatives and friends of the other three men
charged in the horrific plot to blow up two Bronx synagogues and shoot down an
Air National Guard plane said the men never expressed any interest in terrorism.
But they all quickly developed a deep interest in Islam in jail.
Williams’ uncle — who himself once served 10 years
on a drug charge — said he was familiar with prison converts to Islam.
