American Muslims Plan Attacks on US Troops

Little wonder we why this kind of terror goes almost unnoticed - the New Socialist media and congressional socialists are convinced this is a good way to bring America down. They support terror at home as a means to an end.

It is a main-stay of the New Socialist Progressive Party, liberal Democrats, agenda - destroy America so it can be rebuilt to meet the needs of the few at the expense of the many. Kill those that defend us but demand rights to unlimited freedoms - where is the justice in this - ?

I have to Keep the faith because I know the battle is joined.



America's Homegrown Troop Killers
By INVESTOR'S BUSINESS DAILY Posted Tuesday, June 17, 2008

War On Terror:* It's bad enough that Americans are bad-mouthing American troops fighting in Afghanistan and Iraq. But an alarming number of Muslim-Americans are plotting to kill them

It's a story you don't like to hear from the mainstream media: U.S. soldiers increasingly are the prime targets of terrorism, both at home and abroad. And those who want to do them harm include fellow citizens.

Thanks to the anti-war crowd, the trend may only worsen. The ACLU recently pressured the Pentagon to shut down a domestic counterterror unit set up after 9/11 to protect troops and bases.

Convicted last week by a federal jury in Toledo of plotting to attack U.S. soldiers in Iraq were three Ohio men, from left: Marwan El-Hindi, Wassim Mazloum and Mohammed Amawi. And a new congressional report finds that the U.S. government has no "coordinated strategy" to deal with grass-roots jihadists who more and more are meeting, training and conspiring to kill troops over the Internet.

In the most recent case, a federal jury last week convicted three Toledo, Ohio, Muslims of plotting to attack U.S. military personnel in Iraq and elsewhere.Mohammed Amawi, Marwan El-Hindi and Wassim Mazloum were learning to shoot guns and make explosives while raising money to fund their plans to wage jihad against U.S. troops.

Amawi and El-Hindi are U.S. citizens, and Mazloum immigrated to the U.S. legally from Lebanon. In addition, El-Hindi's two cousins from Chicago face trial next year for conspiring to kill American soldiers.The Toledo case is just the latest in a string of troop-killing plots by homegrown terrorists.•

Earlier this month, Muslim convert and al-Qaida trainee Christopher Paul, a U.S. citizen also from Ohio, pleaded guilty to planning to use bombs to blow up U.S. military bases overseas.• In March, Hassan Abu-Jihad, a Muslim convert and former U.S. sailor, was convicted on federal charges of sending classified information on naval ship movements to an al-Qaida Web site, and arranging to obtain weapons to attack U.S. military installations.•

Last year, six Muslim men, including a naturalized U.S. citizen from Jordan, were charged with plotting to attack troops stationed at Fort Dix in New Jersey.• In 2005, three black Muslim converts from Torrance, Calif., were jailed for planning to attack Army recruiting stations.• In 2003, a group of Virginia jihadists, some of whom were born in the U.S., were busted for training to kill U.S. troops in Afghanistan.• Last week, a student in Tampa, Fla., pleaded guilty to terror charges after police found him and a co-defendant with pipe bombs near a South Carolina naval brig holding enemy combatants. His plea deal says he produced terror videos "to be used against those who fight for the United States."

Homegrown American jihadists are waging a battle against U.S. troops right here at home — not in Anbar province or Kandahar — but right here, in Torrance, Toledo and Tampa.The Pentagon ought to make force protection a priority over the privacy concerns of the ACLU crowd, who by turning the military into the enemy has put the lives of troops at risk on American soil. It shouldn't apologize for monitoring Islamists who pose a threat to facilities.
