The Muslim problem in America is not as large as the
American problem in Iraq.... and here's why.

http://usinfo.state.gov/products/pubs/muslimlife/
Islam is one of the fastest-growing religions in the United States today. According to one recent survey, there are 1,209 mosques in America, well over half founded in the last 20 years. Between 17 and 30 percent of American Muslims are converts to the faith.

With 1209 mosques in America.... there must be MILLIONS of Muslims in the U.S.

Now, with millions of Muslims in America, I would guess that only 1 percent of the people in America's prison system are Muslim if that.

With potentially millions of Muslims in America, you will find it difficult to find one story about a car bomb, an IED, Anthrax, Chemical weapons, WMDz, or mortar attacks involving Muslim Americans.

On the other hand..... in Iraq, where America has unleashed her military might, just the opposite is true. Isn't this interesting in the extreme, while scrub bleats on and on about the Islamic threat, terrah terrah booga booga, it is primarily non-muslims in our prison system, non-muslims involved with white supremacist homegrown terrorism, and non-muslims involved with the tremendous amount of corruption in our government. I was just thinking about the internment camps today and who they may be for, and as far as I am concerned, they are probably readying them and building them for the wrong people.

2. Persons who convert in prison are not going to 1209 mosques
spread across this country. They may however be going to an alternative form of a mosque in prison however.

4. No, I'm implying that the people who are going to the 1209
mosques are not in prison.... and yet there has not been one IED, car bomb, or death squad on the streets of America.... exeptin for the white supremecists who have been fouled up here and there...

FBI Reveals Guns, Chemicals, Fake ID's

Tyler Morning Telegraph/April 14, 2003
By Angela Macias

A Tyler man accused of selling false identification cards and keeping suspicious materials in a local storage facility will remain in jail pending his trial.

U.S. Magistrate Judge Harry McKee ordered William J. Krar, 62, to be detained after hearing testimony from an FBI agent regarding the defendant's questionable activities, including the alleged sale of fake United Nations Multinational Force Observer and Defense Intelligence Agency identification cards.

Last week's search of a Noonday storage facility frequented by Krar unearthed multiple containers of chemicals and prompted local officials to contact agents in Washington, D.C.

Authorities believe they found nitric acid in the storage unit. A package labeled sodium cyanide and several other chemicals could not be positively identified, said FBI Special Agent Bart LaRocca. Sodium cyanide could be mixed with acid to produce a deadly gas, he said.

Ten containers were taken back to Washington for further examination and won't be confirmed until later this week, he said.

Machine guns, more than 100,000 rounds of ammunition, pipe bomb materials, binary explosives and reading materials, including "The Turner Diaries," "Anarchist Cookbook" and articles from white supremacist groups, were also found in the storage unit, LaRocca said.

A search of a U-Haul truck found at Krar's home on Oak Spring Road also led authorities to more guns, a silencer, powder sodium cyanide and blank identification forms. Despite finding the unusual items, agents don't believe Krar was planning to commit terrorism, LaRocca said.
