FBI Confirms Stateside Terror Cells


FBI confirms stateside terror cells, credits U.S. Muslim community

world tribune

FBI Director Robert Mueller said last week that the FBI has uncovered small groups of Al Qaida terrorists in the United States, although he declined to provide details.

In House Judiciary Committee testimony, Mueller was asked about cells of Al Qaida in the country.

“As to your first question as to whether we have found affiliates or, as you would call them, cells of Al Qaida in the United States, yes, we have. Again, I cannot get into it in public session, but I would say yes, we have.”

Mueller defended the FBI’s Muslim outreach program that critics say have put the bureau in a role of providing legitimacy to Muslim groups that support overseas extremists.

“And every opportunity I have, I reaffirm the fact that 99.9 percent of Muslim-Americans or Sikh-Americans, Arab-Americans are every bit as patriotic as anybody else in this room, and that many of our cases are a result of the cooperation from the Muslim community in the United States,” Mueller said.

The FBI has been stepping up intelligence-gathering activities in the United States aimed at providing intelligence that would stop a terrorist attack in advance, but U.S. officials said the intelligence program is still in its early stages.

Just do your jobs please because we out here sure will protect ourselves if you keep worrying more about kissing up to the enemy instead of putting America and we the citizens safety first.

Of course they're involved with terrorists. They think it's normal as apple pie to kill your neighbor. I know they have misinterpreted the writings of Muhammad and their own Koran (The Great Crayon, as we call it in our family!) It doesn't mean for them to "KILL" the infidels, but to "SHUN" them and not get involved with them. There is a difference. Kill can mean many things. Even the JWs shun their own if they choose another religion. Shun, not kill. Our own Bible tells us not to marry outside our race, but we didn't take it to say to kill the other race. How dumb do they think we are?

99.9% is bullshiite. In a recent survey some 20% of muslims in America said they supported suicide bombers. Many more than .1% are demanding we adhere to islamic customs and rules. Special swimming times for muslim women only, halal food in schools, islamic religious teaching in muslim tax supported schools, etc.
