TO BRING IT IN LINE WITH TRUMP ADMINISTRATION POLICIES?
THE DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY HAS ALREADY BEGUN!
Latest Developments
- Freedom of Information Act Case -
9/8/18 - Document production has begun and will continue for months. So far, the government has only turned over documents released in response to previous FOIA requests by others, more than 2,000 pages which are being reviewed now. Liberato.US will publish its findings from these documents soon.
8/1/18 - Plaintiff has sent a long letter to defendant outlining the scope of an adequate search for records. The government has taken the position that the Department of Justice was sued, not just the FBI, so the scope of an adequate search now includes Department of Justice units and officials.
5/18/18 - The FBI has started working on most of the records requests. The parties agreed on June 29th as the date for the FBI to say how many pages are involved. Monthly productions are to commence August 15th. The scheduling conference for May 22nd was cancelled in light of these developments. The parties must report the status of the case to the court by August 27th.
5/15/18 – Negotiations with the FBI’s counsel have commenced. A scheduling hearing is set for May 22nd.
5/2/18 - The FBI filed an answer.
4/2/18 - The FBI is still refusing to get with the program and take the steps the Department of Homeland Security has taken to restore sanity to its counterterrorism policy. The FBI failed to respond to a FOIA request pertaining to counterterrorism training materials and doctrine, and related matters. Consequently, a FOIA suit was filed against the FBI on 4/2/18.

RADICALIZATION TO JIHAD – Part 2
Jihad Attacks are Foreseeable, But the Predictive Indicators Must be Learned and Heeded
Four Stages of Radicalization (cont’d)
RADICALIZATION TO JIHAD – Part 2
Jihad Attacks are Foreseeable, But the Predictive Indicators Must be Learned and Heeded
Four Stages of Radicalization (cont’d)
- Phase 3: Interaction with Others
- Recruit has first one-on-one interactions, becomes part of global jihadi network. This is an important indicator of radicalization
- There are a large number of social media choices for such interaction, for finding communities of the like-minded. ISIS has a large operation devoted to this activity, featuring sophisticated propaganda (e.g., ‘die for a cause’).
- Facebook and YouTube facilitate terrorism by allowing this activity and jihadi material on their platforms. They are ‘virtual training camps’.
- No critical thinking goes on in these communities; it’s all blind obedience.
- Law enforcement must be trained to infiltrate these networks, like they do with pedophiles.
- Millennials are being targeted with ‘jihadi cool’. Millennials are vulnerable because they grew up with violent video games and this online activity feels much the same to them.
- New trends:
- Targeting thrill-seekers and ‘secular rebels’ – less emphasis on Islamic doctrine
- Cultivating jihadi couples (e.g., San Bernardino attackers)
- Women are targeted by ISIS; 550 women from Western countries have been recruited. They often fit the profile of being 2nd/3rd generation Muslim, college-educated, and not supported in this choice by their families. There are many motivations for women becoming ISIS recruits – adventure, romance, etc. ISIS works them with slick propaganda, e.g., Cosmo-style magazines and comparisons to Bible-reading gun-owning women in the West (‘what’s the difference?’, ISIS asks).
- Some women have returned from Syria to raise the next generation of jihadis in the West (“cubs for the caliphate”). Studies show that mothers can be highly effective in radicalizing their children. The New Mexico compound recently in the news provides an example of “child warriors” being trained to kill.
- We can’t effectively fight terrorism until we name the enemy and expose the link between Islamic doctrine and jihad.
- The Role of Intermediaries:
- The interaction often remains electronic
- Standard messaging is delivered: the West hates Islam; Muslims have the right to defend themselves; etc.
- There are female recruiters
- Anwar al-Awlaki, though dead, remains the most successful recruiter, from beyond the grave. He recruited 90 jihadists, 55 of them in the U.S. His materials have figured in many attacks. He still has 18,000 videos on YouTube.
- Radical mosques reinforce jihadi messages in sermons
- Moral Disengagement:
- The process of disassociating from Western ideas of right and wrong and substituting sharia which justifies killing for Allah. When sharia concepts are internalized, radicalization is nearly complete.
- From there, it’s a short step to the oath of allegiance expressing willingness to die as a martyr. The recruit begins to be pressured to act. A face-to-face contact at this juncture can seal the deal
- More indicators of radicalization:
- Sudden religiosity
- Research into Islamist writings
- Criticizing Western policies toward Muslim countries
- Changes in eating and drinking habits
- Self-segregating / new friends
- Criticizing family members for not being fundamentalist
- Adopting non-Western dress
- A name change
- Speaking more in Arabic
- Proselytizing others
- Open animosity
- Statements supporting ISIS
- These are visible to someone in most cases; there are few cases of jihadists being socially isolated
- The radicalization process can take anywhere from a few months to several years to complete.
- Martyrdom is considered religious worship in Islamic doctrine.
- Terrorism coaching is often received remotely from foreign locations
- The Garland attack was preceded by an indicator tweet - ‘May Allah accept us as mujahedeen’
- Amazon sells jihadi-enabling items
- Observers talk of the ‘cyber caliphate’ that can target any neighborhood
- Each behavior listed above is legal, and most in and of themselves may merely indicate increasing spiritual devotion, not radicalization. The question is when is there enough to justify detention for questioning and further investigation, or even arrest. Under the Terry v. Ohio Supreme Court case, the police may stop someone for questioning when, considering the totality of circumstances, there is a “reasonable suspicion” the person is about to commit a crime. [Editor’s Note – A full arrest must meet the higher standard of “probable cause”.] In one case, possession of a Quran was used to justify denying bail to a suspect. This was immediately labeled Islamophobic, but what critics neglected to mention was the additional possession of a sawed-off rifle and books on terrorism.
- When a suspect takes the jihadist oath of allegiance, expressly states an intent to commit an attack, meets a recruiter, or attempts to travel to a war zone, this is enough to give law enforcement reasonable suspicion to investigate. One expert (Forster) believes that criminal intent can be proved before the oath of allegiance, citing the examples of the Ft. Hood shooter who emailed al-Awlaki 18 times and Colleen LaRose’s ’34 overt acts’ supporting her indictment. Radical online posts were used to justify criminal charges in the Saadeh case.
- There are many cases of law enforcement ignoring warnings and indicators of becoming radicalized. Failure to heed warnings or understand the indicators can result in an attack taking place. Remember the Ft. Hood shooter – nobody acted even though Hasan’s radicalization was very evident. No one will forgive law enforcement after an attack. Being clueless is NOT an excuse. This is why law enforcement needs the proper training now.
- Proper training of law enforcement is critical to pick up on clues. In some cases, the suspect had paid off all his credit card debts. This would go right past untrained law officers, but paying debts is one of the last acts a jihadi takes before an attack. This is because debt is a sin that cannot be forgiven through martyrdom.
- Once brought in for questioning, the suspect should be asked about the complete list of indicators. The Chief of Police or Sheriff should be notified. The FBI Joint Terrorism Task Force should also be notified, because they might already be investigating the person. The local prosecutor should also be notified. There should be surveillance and investigation to see if probable cause for an arrest can be obtained.
- Prevention – the indicators are visible and people can see an attack is coming. Law enforcement must form partnerships with law-abiding Muslims and vetted mosques. Law enforcement must also go public and urge politicians to bring pressure to bear on social media to stop facilitating jihadists. Law enforcement should also realize that CAIR and other Muslim Brotherhood front groups are not their friends in preventing attacks.
- The public needs to play a role: ‘See Something, Say Something’. Also, if you have significant information, get out of the normal channels (e.g., don’t call 911). Local officers are often clueless, so take it to the Chief of Police or Sheriff or, if necessary, an FBI Joint Terrorism Task Force commander (call your FBI field office).

Sharia TipSheet
"Islam Will Be Victorious" - bumper sticker seen in the U.S.
How many true religions do you know that talk like that?
The answer is none. But, then again, Islam is not a religion. It seeks world domination. It claims to be a superior way of life, not just religiously and spiritually, but politically, socially, and economically. It also seeks to impose an all-encompassing legal system (sharia) to control every aspect of human existence here on earth. Islam is a totalitarian world-government-in-waiting with just enough religious veneer to confuse people. Because it strays far beyond the religious and spiritual realms into the political, legal, social, and economic arenas, Islam has forfeited any special standing or regard ordinarily given to true religions (tax-exempt status, freedom of religion under the First Amendment, our goodwill, etc.).
The Islamists have a comprehensive, carefully thought-out plan to achieve world domination and they are working the plan in every corner of the globe, including the United States. The rest of the world must unite and refuse to let Muslims take over the entire planet as they have actively been seeking from the very beginning of Islam. Militant Islam, Islamist radicals, and the imposition of sharia law in America must be opposed at every turn. The Sharia TipSheet endeavors to arm critics of radical Islam with the truth and raise public awareness that Islam and sharia law are not benign ideologies but are, instead, cancerous at their core and will eventually prove fatal to Western liberal democracy and the American way of life if left unchecked.
