July 21, 2008 California: Member of jihadist cell targeting military sites and other "infidel" interests sentenced to 12 1/2 years in prison Note the origins of the plot in the California prison system in the 1990s. What precautions are in place to keep that from happening again? Gregory <http://jihadwatch.org/archives/008292.php> Patterson Update. "Homegrown U.S. terrorist sent to prison," from UPI <http://www.upi.com/Top_News/2008/07/21/Homegrown_US_terrorist_sent_to_priso n/UPI-68091216683932/> , July 21: SANTA ANA, Calif., July 21 (UPI) -- A California terrorist who plotted to wage war against the United States was sentenced Monday to more than 12 1/2 years in prison, prosecutors said. Gregory Patterson, 24, of Gardena was part of a domestic terrorist cell that intended to wage jihad, or holy war, against U.S. military facilities, as well as Israeli and Jewish targets and "infidels," the U.S. Justice Department said. Another member of the cell, Levar <http://jihadwatch.org/archives/021507.php> Washington, 30, was sentenced to 22 years in prison last month. The men had pleaded guilty in U.S. District Court last December to conspiring to wage war against the United States. The man who organized the terror cell -- Kevin James -- also has pleaded guilty and is to be sentenced Feb. 9. A fourth alleged member -- Hammad Samana -- has been found unfit to stand trial and is receiving psychiatric care at a federal prison facility. James created Jam'iyyat Ul-Islam Is-Saheeh while in California's New Folsom Prison in 1997. Washington and Patterson conducted about a dozen armed robberies of gas stations to get money for the group's planned attacks in the Los Angeles area, Justice Department officials said. Their targets allegedly included the Los Angeles airport, the Israeli consulate, Army recruiting centers and a military base at Manhattan Beach, prosecutors said.

Maybe they recognize it as the greatest organized crime ring of all time, and Mohammad as the "boss of all bosses".

They are using our own freedoms to combat us and shut us up from criticizing and and speaking the truth about Islam. There is one thing I am sure about is that they want to cause great harm to the USA and its people and want to use all means of propaganda and taquiya to fool ordinary Americans that Islam is peaceful, whilst they increase the numbers of Muslims and open more Mosques and madrases. Once a Mosque is open that plot of land becomes Dar al Islam. So every Mosque in the US is a place to further spread the house of Islam and the chaos and destruction that follows is inevitable. Just the thought and sound of that sends chills up my spine.
