Patrick Poole in this Pajamas Media piece entitled "What Senators Didn't Hear About Somali American Jihadists" raises a basic disturbing question about why our FBI and Senator Lieberman's Homeland Security and Government Committee (HSGAC) staff continually evade the realities of Muslim extremism in hearings over the past two years. His sub-text message in his jeremiad is clear:
A serious new terrorist threat is on the horizon -- but government officials are too politically correct to face it.Poole goes on to note clear evidence that Somali American Jihadists constitute a 'clear and present danger.'
In December 2007, months before the Somali men began disappearing from Minneapolis, I reported exclusively here at Pajamas Media about a jihadist fundraiser in the Twin Cities area attended by hundreds of local Somalis. The event featured top jihadist organizer Zakaria Mahmoud Haji-Abdi, the deputy chairman of the Alliance for the Re-Liberation of Somalia (ARS) and now second in command to Somali "president" Sheikh Sherif Ahmed.In that instance, homeland security officials failed to prevent Abdi from entering the country and conducting a series of fund raisers here in the U.S., where he encouraged recruitment to the jihad and financial support from the Somali community for their cause. As the story of the missing Somali men began to unfold late last year, I reported that some of those same homeland security officials have now admitted privately that the fundraiser the year before had been the "tipping point" for radicalization in the Minneapolis area. That notwithstanding, another ARS official was recently allowed to enter into the U.S. to conduct even more jihadist fund raisers. (Stay tuned to Pajamas Media for more on that report.)And it is no big secret what the common denominator is to all of the missing men -- all attended the Abubakar as-Siddique Mosque in south Minneapolis, led by extremist imam Sheikh Abdirahman Ahmed, the largest mosque in the area. Seeing as this link between the mosque and the missing men has been the focus of recent articles in the Los Angeles Times and Newsweek, it is hard to believe that this has escaped homeland security's notice, especially since the mosque's imam and youth director have been placed on the agency's "no-fly" list and were prevented from leaving the country back in November...more..http://www.redcounty.com/sarasota/2009/03/mired-in-pc-the-us-senate-home/

We Are Winning the War on Terrorism in Horn of Africa
The threat is from violent extremists who are a small minority of the world's 1.3 billion Muslims, the threat is real. They distort Islam. They kill man, woman and child; Christian and Hindu, Jew and Muslim. They seek to create a repressive caliphate. To defeat this enemy, we must understand who we are fighting against, and what we are fighting for.
