Binghamton, NY: Eyes Wide Shut
By Douglas J. Hagmann, Director
2 April 2008: The city of Binghamton, New York granted them the necessary permits to have a parade this Saturday to celebrate Muhammad’s birthday. According to the city’s web site, such events are arranged through Tarik Abdelazim, Executive Assistant to the Mayor. According to Andrew Block, Director of Community Relations, the Muslims of the Americas (MOA) – the name used by the Hancock, NY based group – have the blessings of the Binghamton, NY police Department to parade.
Meanwhile, an article in the New English Review reinforces our investigative findings about those who will be marching in Binghamton on Saturday: they are “[T]he best positioned group to help al-Qaeda launch an attack in the US.”
Nevertheless, the city of Binghamton, NY has given them their blessings for a parade on Saturday.
Investigation conducted by this agency – and myself personally – determined and confirmed that The Muslims of the Americas (MoA) is the “front group” for the terrorist organization Jamaat ul Fuqra. They have pledged their allegiance to their leader, Sheikh Mubarek Ali Gilani of Lahore, Pakistan.
Make no mistake: the leader of Jamaat ul Fuqra, Sheik Mubarak Ali Gilani, is an INTERNATIONAL ISLAMIC TERRORIST. He met with Islamic terrorist leaders including Osama bin Laden in 1993. He is a very dangerous man, and those who follow his teachings should be considered dangerous and enemies of the United States, Canada and all of Western civilization.
Nevertheless, the city of Binghamton, NY has given them their blessings for a parade on Saturday.
I have personally investigated this terrorist organization. My investigative findings appear in a 2006 report authored by the Regional Organized Crime Information Center (ROCIC) that was disseminated to law enforcement. Jamaat ul Fuqra is directly linked to a number of murders, arsons, and violent crimes in the United States and Canada. There is nothing benign about the intentions of Jamaat ul Fuqra – they seek to “purify Islam” through violence. Associates of Jamaat ul Fuqra include Rodney Hampton-El (1993 World Trade Center bombing), John Allen Muhammad (the Beltway sniper), and Richard Reid (the shoe-bomber).
Nevertheless, the city of Binghamton, NY has given them their blessings for a parade on Saturday.
Furthermore, I have been the subject of a delusional diatribe by Gilani himself, who bills himself as the “sixth Sultan ul-Fuqra,” and a direct descendant of Muhammad. There is nothing benign about the activities and intentions of this international terrorist – a man who appears on film chanting, “Down, down with the USA!” “Down, down with the CIA,” and “Death to the Jews.”
Nevertheless, the city of Binghamton, NY has given them their blessings for a parade on Saturday.
Without any doubt, the first amendment of the U.S. constitution guarantees the freedom of speech and expression, regardless of the popularity of the message. But questions must be asked of city officials in Binghamton:
Do you know who you are dealing with?
Perhaps visitors to this site would like to ask such questions of those who approve of the parade:
