This is a chilling article that tells the story of one example of Islamist terrorism in America.
The Incarceration of Edward Flinton
Folks, you won't want to miss the latest fascinating post by "Fuqra Hater" over at Shedding Some Light. If you want to know more about the inner workings of al-Fuqra and the Muslims of the Americas, you will want to read his accounts. In his latest posting, he takes us inside a meeting that took place following the capture of Edward Flinton, one of Fuqra's most notorious operators. And, when I say inside, I mean it. He was part of the security team charged with hiding the man's family following his arrest. Flinton had been a member of a Colorado-based Fuqra cell known as the "Sector 5 Muhammad Commandos". This cell was based out of Colorado at the Trout Creek Pass compound near Buena Vista. From here, they planned attacks and surveilled numerous targets, both infrastructure and military-related.According the report "Identifying the Links Between White-Collar Crime & Terrorism" by the National White Collar Crime Center (NW3C), Flinton was alleged to be the "mastermind" responsible for developing Fuqra's assassination and bombing plans including the 1983 hotel bombing attempt in Portland, OR; the 1984 bombing of the Hare Krishna Temple in Denver, CO; and the 1990 murder of Imam Rashad Khalifa in Tuscon, AZ. Flinton was Caucasian, just like Fuqra's bombmaker, Stephen Paster. Seems Gilani liked to use them for operations when possible because they didn't fit the profile of a majority of his group's members. Al-Qaeda has tried to exploit that tactic as well.
