Imam Who Led Radical Islam Group Killed in FBI Raid

DETROIT — Federal authorities on Wednesday arrested several members of a radical Sunni Islam group in the U.S., killing one of its leaders at a shootout in a Michigan warehouse, the U.S. attorney’s office said.

Agents were trying to arrest Luqman Ameen Abdullah, 53, at a Dearborn warehouse on charges that included conspiracy to sell stolen goods and illegal possession and sale of firearms. Authorities also conducted raids elsewhere to try to round up 10 followers named in a federal complaint.

Abdullah refused to surrender, fired a weapon and was killed by gunfire from agents, FBI spokeswoman Sandra Berchtold said.

In the 43-paged complaint unsealed Wednesday, the FBI said Abdullah, also known as Christopher Thomas, was an imam, or prayer leader, of a radical group named Ummah whose primary mission is to establish an Islamic state within the United States.

No one was charged with terrorism. But Abdullah was “advocating and encouraging his followers to commit violent acts against the United States,” FBI agent Gary Leone said in an affidavit.

He told them it was their “duty to oppose the FBI and the government and it does not matter if they die,” Leone said.

Luqman Amin Abdullah

Luqman Ameen Abdullah is dead, but guess what, there a dozens more just like him waiting in the wings. In case you were wondering who some of the next ‘Terrorist Leaders’ will be to spring up in the US look no further than MANA.

What is MANA? Well it is the Muslim Alliance in North American and they have a clear mission. Here is an excerpt from their web site.

MANA is a national network of masjids, Muslim organizations and individuals committed to work together to address certain urgent needs within the Muslim community. These needs include the great social and economic problems that are challenging Muslim communities especially in the inner city; the need for the involvement of masjids and Muslims in community service projects which are aimed at improving society as a whole; the need for systematic and effective dawah programs to help bring more non-Muslims into Islam; the need for new Muslim programs that will help them to grow in Islam. MANA is therefore an open organization that is agenda driven.

 
Let me summarize the mission of MANA.

To convert all non-Muslims to Islam by any means necessary, including terrorism and murder.

Here is a nice long list of MANA members who will be replacing Luqman Amin Abdullah as your friendly neighborhood ‘activist’.

I don’t pretend to know what the folks in this video are saying, but enough with the religious stuff and get on with the community work as Americans, helping all Americans, if that is truly what Muslim groups like MANA are trying to do.
Yeah right.
