Islamic Supremacist Group Holds Conference In Chicago

A group committed to establishing an international Islamic empire and reportedly linked to Al Qaeda is stepping up its Western recruitment efforts by holding its first official conference in the U.S.
 
Hizb ut-Tahrir is a global Sunni network with reported ties to confessed 9/11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and Al Qaeda in Iraq’s onetime leader Abu Musab al-Zarqawi. It has operated discreetly in the U.S. for decades.
Now, it is coming out of the shadows and openly hosting a July 19 conference entitled, “The Fall of Capitalism and the Rise of Islam,” at a posh Hilton hotel in a suburb of Chicago.
 

Hizb ut-Tahrir insists that it does not engage in terrorism, and it is not recognized by the State Department as a known terror group.

But some terrorism experts say it may be even more dangerous than many groups that are on the terror list.

Terrorist recruitment group meets tomorrow in Chicago.

Posted by Sandra Lea Wise on Saturday, July 18, 2009 3:10:50 PM
Should terrorist recruitment groups be allowed to have conferences openly right here in America?  During the Obama administration the apparent answer is yes.  Tomorrow in Chicago, such a group is meeting at the Hilton Hotel. 

According to Col. Ralph Peters, this group professes hatred of the Jews and the destruction of Israel.  They say America is evil and that capitalism is wrong.  They preach Hizb ut-Tahrirover the world and their goal is to recruit Muslim Americans to become involved in Jihad.

Welcome to America under the Obama administration.  An administration that releases terrorists from Guantanamo, brushes aside families of 9/11 victims and threatens to prosecute former government officials who went after the terrorists.  An administration that is more concerned about terrorists rights than protecting us from them. 

Welcome to terrorist friendly America.

A package delivered to the Toledo Police Department downtown early Thursday afternoon exploded on the fourth floor. Two officers were treated at St. Vincent Mercy Medical Center and decontaminated.

Initially the officers that opened the package believed there was a white powdery substance inside. It was hissing before it exploded shortly after 1 p.m.

At least two officers, a lieutenant and a detective, were affected when the package was opened. They were both transported to St. Vincent’s emergency room as a precaution. Both officers were decontaminated and treated by physicians, at St. V’s.

“When the officer opened the box there was a hissing noise that would suggest some type of gas escape when he opened the box,” said Thomas Jaksetic, Toledo Fire Battalion Chief and Homeland Security spokesman.

FOX Toledo’s Michelle Zepeda was inside the downtown police Safety Building while it was being cordoned off. A source within the police department told Zepeda the package possibly had narcotics inside it.

The entire fourth floor was closed off for about three hours and the elevators were shut down as a precaution. St. Vincent’s ER was also locked down for about three hours as well.

Former Terror Officials Point To al Qaeda Connected Group In Blast

Posted: 16 Jul 2009 10:23 PM PDT

Two former senior U.S. officials who dealt directly with issues of terror in Indonesia say the bombings in Jakarta today bear the trademarks of the al Qaeda-connected Group Jemayah Islamiya, whose top bomb-maker, Noordin Top, has been at large and feared preparing a new attack.

Authorities are looking for Noordin Mohammed Top in connection with two explosions in Jakarta, Indonesia.

Former White House counter-terrorism chief Richard Clarke, now an ABC News consultant, said the virtually simultaneous attacks and current intelligence point to the involvement of Top, who he called one “He is one of the most wanted men in Asia.”
