BREAKING: What NYC Cops Just Said About The Vicious Hatchet Attack Will Leave You Stunned
BREAKING: What NYC Cops Just Said About The Vicious Hatchet Attack Will Leave You Stunned
...police sources say the attacker was...
On the very same day that a hatchet-wielding man attacked four rookie New York City cops, critically injuring one, Breitbart News published an exclusive report that federal law enforcement agencies had specifically warned of just such a possibility:
It’s also been reported that ISIS has issued calls for its followers
and sympathizers to carry out attacks in the United States. Via Fox News:
Despite the fact that that attacker, identified as 32-year-old Zale Thompson, had made a number of inflammatory and threatening social media posts, despite the nature of those messages that included terror-related calls for jihadist-inspired revolution — despite that clear evidence, ABC News is reporting that police sources say the attacker was just an angry individual, not a man with terrorist ties.
You can see the Hannity interview by clicking on the video above.
Federal authorities have warned US law enforcement of potential terror attacks against them from homegrown ISIS members or supporters, according to a leaked internal bulletin exclusively obtained by Breitbart Texas.Only days earlier, we know that two separate terrorist attacks occurred in Canada — each claiming the life of Canadian military personnel. In both instances, the attackers were said to have been Muslims with terror ties.
The memo was issued by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) as a Joint Intelligence Bulletin and is titled, “Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant and Its Supporters Encouraging Attacks Against Law Enforcement and Government Personnel.”

A law enforcement bulletin obtained by FoxNews.com warned that Islamic State fighters have increased calls for “lone wolves” to attack U.S. soldiers in America in recent months, citing one tweet that called for jihadists to find service members’ addresses online and then “show up and slaughter them.”Which brings us to Thursday’s attack on a group of NYC police officers in Queens by a man using a metal hatchet as a weapon. After he had injured two officers, he was shot to death by police.
Despite the fact that that attacker, identified as 32-year-old Zale Thompson, had made a number of inflammatory and threatening social media posts, despite the nature of those messages that included terror-related calls for jihadist-inspired revolution — despite that clear evidence, ABC News is reporting that police sources say the attacker was just an angry individual, not a man with terrorist ties.
A hatchet-wielding man who attacked two police officers in New York City before he was shot to death was likely “just an angry guy” and was not connected to any terrorist organizations, a police source told ABC News.On his Fox News show Thursday night, Sean Hannity discussed the incident in depth, exploring with his two guests the apparent connections between the hatchet-man and Islamic teachings.
“The initial impression is that he’s just an angry guy who’s ranting about the American government and American oppression of foreign people,” the source said.

BREAKING: Leaked FBI Memo Details Horrifying “Islamic State” Terror Attack Plot on US Soil
BREAKING: Leaked FBI Memo Details Horrifying “Islamic State” Terror Attack Plot on US Soil
President Barack Obama’s weak leadership continues to put Americans in danger, both abroad and, more recently, here at home. One of the primary current dangers is the terrorism threat posed by the Islamic State.
An FBI memo on potential ISIS terror attacks was recently leaked to Breitbart (H/T Mad World News) and describes, in detail, a new plot by the Islamic State to carry out terrorist attacks against Americans here on American soil. The Islamic State is not just planning on attacking Iraqi towns, or even our embassy. They are actively trying to his us here in our homeland.
Click here to get a FREE subscription to the Conservative Tribune.
The Islamic State is actively encouraging their homegrown supporters to launch “lone wolf” terror attacks against Americans. Their targets? The members and families of federal law enforcement, including FBI Special Agents.
Federal officials have issued warnings of potential terror attacks against law enforcement officers and their families, asking them to closely monitor what they put on social media, especially anything that might reveal the locations of law enforcement.
The document is labeled “UNCLASSIFIED/FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY” and is intended for the eyes of government agents only, not the public or the media.
Check out the document below:
The Islamic State is one of the most important challenges the Obama administration has had to face, and they are failing miserably. Such wimpy leadership is inexcusable in the face of radical Islamic terrorism.
President Obama has done shockingly little to confront the Islamic State and international Islamic terrorism abroad. What we need today is a modern Winston Churchill, and Obama isn’t that at all.
The Islamic State must be destroyed, and Obama is too weak to do what needs to be done to protect the American homeland. The Islamic State terrorists are emboldened because of his weakness, and Americans are increasingly at risk as a result.
Please share if you agree that the price of freedom is eternal vigilance, and we should all be on high alert.
“A Muslim must always worship Allah and wage jihad until death in order to reach his ultimate goal … Regularly make the intention to go on jihad with the ambition to die as a martyr.”

MUSLIM AMERICAN SOCIETY (MAS) | |

Founded in 1992, the Muslim American Society (MAS) describes itself as "a charitable, religious, social, cultural and educational, not-for-profit … Islamic organization.” In 2004, MAS secretary-general Shaker Elsayed said that his organization had been founded by members of the Muslim Brotherhood. MAS's mission is to promote "Islam as a total way of life"; to “encourage the participation of Muslims in building a virtuous and moral society”; to “offer a viable Islamic alternative to many of our society’s prevailing problems”; to “promote family values in accordance with Islamic teaching”; to “promote the human values that Islam emphasizes: brotherhood, equality, justice, mercy, compassion, and peace”; and to “foster unity among Muslims and Muslim organizations and encourage cooperation and coordination amongst them.” MAS identifies the Islamic Society of North America and the Muslim Students Association as Muslim organizations that are rooted in the same “Islamic revival movement” as MAS. In May 2005, Daveed Gartenstein-Ross reported in The Weekly Standard that MAS is a U.S. front group for the Muslim Brotherhood -- a claim supported by a September 19, 2004 Chicago Tribune story that stated: “In recent years, the U.S. Brotherhood operated under the name Muslim American Society, according to documents and interviews. One of the nation’s major Islamic groups, it was incorporated in Illinois in 1993 after a contentious debate among Brotherhood members.” This Tribune article was later reproduced on the Muslim Brotherhood’s English-language website, Ikhwanweb. MAS, like the Muslim Brotherhood, wishes to see the United States governed by sharia, or Islamic law. "The message that all countries should be ruled by Islamic law," writes Gartenstein-Ross, "is echoed throughout MAS's membership curriculum. For example, MAS requires all its adjunct members to read Fathi Yakun's book To Be a Muslim. In that volume, Yakun spells out his expansive agenda: 'Until the nations of the world have functionally Islamic governments, every individual who is careless or lazy in working for Islam is sinful.'" MAS's ties to the Muslim Brotherhood were confirmed on August 14, 2007, as The Investigative Project on Terrorism reported: "As the terror-support trial of the Holy Land Foundation (HLF) continued today, FBI agent Lara Burns testified that a phonebook found at the home of Ismail Elbarrasse -- un-indicted co-conspirator and former assistant to HAMAS leader Musa Abu Marzook -- listed the names and numbers of the Muslim Brotherhood leadership in the United States. On the first page of the phonebook under the title ‘Members of the Board of Directors’ were fifteen names. Among those names are Ahmad Elkadi, Jamal Badawi, and Omar Soubani: the founding incorporators of the Muslim American Society (MAS)." The Investigative Project continued: "This evidence confirms ... Matthew Levitt’s expert testimony that MAS is the representative of the Muslim Brotherhood in the United States, and is substantiated by a [2004] Chicago Tribune article that outlined the history of MAS. "Ahmad Elkadi, who told the Chicago Tribune that he was the leader of the Brotherhood in the U.S. from 1984-1994, worked with Mohammed Mahdi Akef, head of the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood since 2003, to advocate for the founding of MAS. According to the Tribune report, Akef and Elkadi pushed for more openness for the Muslim Brotherhood through MAS. Akef himself ‘says he helped found MAS by lobbying for the change during trips to the U.S.’ “In fact, MAS does not deny its Muslim Brotherhood foundations. In 2004, then-Secretary General of MAS Shaker Elsayed stated to the Tribune that ‘Ikhwan [Brotherhood] members founded MAS…’ Elsayed even went so far as to admit that about 45 percent of MAS’s active members belong to the Brotherhood. Federal officials have confirmed this, noting continued ties between MAS and the Muslim Brotherhood." MAS is described by Stephen Schwartz, author of The Two Faces of Islam, as "a major component" of the "Wahhabi Lobby" that channels money from and advances the policies of Muslim-fundamentalist Saudi Arabia. MAS publishes The American Muslim magazine. In a July 2003 article titled "Reaching the Roots of Terrorism," author Omer bin Abdullah blames America's "forceful" foreign policy for having provoked the 9/11 attacks. "Terrorism enables the weak to confront the strong,” he writes, “and thus has an enduring appeal to those who are dissatisfied with the status quo. … Its causes usually can be traced to political oppression, cultural domination, economic exploitation, ethnic discrimination, and religious persecution. … The U.S. has placed itself in a corner: It insists that other governments stop, prevent, and even help it to fight terrorism, and yet arms such practitioners of state terrorism as Tel Aviv. Today, terrorism refers to those whom the U.S. dislikes, especially Muslims.” In 2002 Randall Royer was the Communications Director of MAS. The following year, federal agents arrested Royer and charged him with conspiring with a Pakistani Wahhabist group -- Lashkar-I-Taibi, or "Army of the Righteous" -- to commit terrorism in Kashmir, Chechnya and elsewhere. Closely linked to MAS is the Muslim American Society Freedom Foundation, whose Executive Director is Mahdi Bray, a former Students for a Democratic Society activist now affiliated with International ANSWER, an anti-war front group for the Communist World Workers Party. "Our mission," Bray has written, "is to build an integrated empowerment process for the American Muslim community." Toward this end, Bray and MAS have been involved in a voter-registration drive and an effort to train 1,000 "activists" in the "skills necessary for effective activism." MAS also has close ties to Islamic American University, an unaccredited university in the Detroit suburb of Southfield, which teaches Islamic law and other subjects. (One IAU faculty member is Sheikh Yousef Al-Qaradhawi, who until at least June 2003 was also the Chairman -- in abstentia -- of the university's Board of Trustees. ) In addition, MAS operates programs for educating the young, providing fellowship for Muslim youth, creating its own network of Islamic schools, and sustaining a nationwide Council of Imams. MAS was a signatory to a February 20, 2002 document, composed by the radical group Refuse & Resist, condemning military tribunals and the detention of immigrants apprehended in connection with post-9/11 terrorism investigations. MAS strongly opposes the Patriot Act, which it says “strips away the fundamental checks and balances that safeguard many of our basic civil liberties,” and has “drastically infringed upon every American's rights by giving the government expanded powers to invade privacy, imprison and deport people without due process, and punish political dissent.” As of early June 2007, the Minnesota chapter of MAS featured the following anti-Semitic, pro-jihad quotes on its website, www.masmn.org:
In September 2007, MAS President Esam S. Omeish, who was also a member of Virginia's Commission of Immigration, resigned in disgrace from his MAS post after it was revealed that he had been videotaped at a December 22, 2000 rally in Washington, DC, telling a Muslim audience: "... we are here today ... to tell our brothers and sisters in Palestine that you have learned the way; that you have known that the jihad way is the way to liberate your land. And we, by standing here today ... we are telling them that 'we are with you, we are supporting you, and we will do everything that we can ... to help your cause.'" (Click here for this December 2000 video.) Another damning video showed Omeish, at an August 12, 2006 rally in Washington, denouncing an invasion of Lebanon by the "Israeli war machine"; accusing Israel of genocide and massacres against Palestinians; and claiming that the "Israeli agenda" controls the U.S. Congress. On October 19, 2011, MAS was one of 57 organizations to co-sign a letter that Farhana Khera, executive director of an Islamic organization called Muslim Advocates, wrote to Barack Obama’s then-Deputy National Security Advisor for Homeland Security and Counterterrorism (and later CIA director) John Brennan. The letter demanded that Obama officials “purge all federal government training materials of biased materials”—that is, materials that they claimed were biased against Islam—and “implement a mandatory re-training program for FBI agents, U.S. Army officers, and all federal, state and local law enforcement who have been subjected to biased training.” Joing MAS as signatories were such groups as the Council on American-Islamic Relations, the Islamic Circle of North America, Islamic Relief USA, the Islamic Society of North America, and the Muslim Public Affairs Council. The Obama Administration immediately complied with the letter's demands. Dwight C. Holton, former U.S. Attorney for the District of Oregon, emphasized that same day that training materials for the FBI would be purged of everything that Islamic supremacists deemed offensive: “I want to be perfectly clear about this: training materials that portray Islam as a religion of violence or with a tendency towards violence are wrong, they are offensive, and they are contrary to everything that this president, this attorney general and Department of Justice stands for. They will not be tolerated.” |

First Muslim Promoted to Captain in Boston Police Department wants Officers Reading to Children in Schools
First Muslim Promoted to Captain in Boston Police Department wants Officers Reading to Children in Schools
As Boston police Captain Haseeb Hosein, a former science teacher and a firm believer in the power of reading, assumes leadership in Mattapan as the department’s first Muslim captain, he plans to have his officers walking not only the streets, but school hallways.Those inclined to believe that whatever the officers will be reading to children will be strictly secular should perhaps read the last two paragraphs of the Boston Globe article:
“I want my guys to go into the schools and spend 30 minutes and read” with a child, said Hosein, 52, who received his captain’s shield Wednesday in a ceremony at police headquarters. “I hate that police officers are always the bad guy. We should be an asset.”
Hosein’s promotion makes him the highest-ranking Muslim in the department, according to a police spokesman, and one of three minority captains .
“The promotion to captain of Haseeb Hosein goes directly to my commitment of making the police department more reflective of the community we serve,” Police Commissioner William Evans said in a statement. “It is both historic and an honor for me to promote the first black Muslim captain to my command staff.”
Mayor Martin J. Walsh said Hosein is “a fantastic addition to the leadership.”
“He is an exceptionally skilled, qualified officer, with over two decades of experience in our neighborhoods,” Walsh said in a statement. “He will be a strong advocate and continue to build upon the strong community relationships we have developed in Mattapan.”
As the department’s first Muslim captain, he said, he feels he can inspire young Muslims to join the force and serve as an ambassador for a faith that is often viewed negatively.The facebook and twitter pages of the Islamic Society of Boston Cultural Center (ISBCC), which was attended by the Boston Marathon bombers and was founded by convicted terrorist Abdurahman Alamoudi, announced the promotion with pleasure. Comments on the mosque’s facebook page are overwhelmingly supportive of the announcement.
“I can be a voice to denounce violence, and let people know that the 1.6 billion Muslims [in the world] are just like them,” Hosein said. “I hope to be that voice that speaks out loud.”
Shouldn’t Bostonians and Americans be employing their critical thinking skills to determine why this is so?
Coincidentally, two days after Hosein’s promotion was announced, it was learned that the Imam of the ISBCC – Suhaib Webb – will be leaving, presumably for another city. Webb was also at one time the Imam of the Oklahoma City mosque attended by Alton Nolen, who beheaded a woman in September.
Webb belongs to the Muslim American Society (MAS), a group confirmed by its former Secretary General Shaker Elsayed to have been founded by Muslim Brotherhood leaders.
Bostonians should be demanding to know what Police Officers in Boston will be reading to their children in public schools.
Boston protected obama and the muslms now they have a muslm police name 1st Muslim captain
Boston police name 1st Muslim captain

As Boston police Captain Haseeb Hosein,
a former science teacher and a firm believer in the power of reading,
assumes leadership in Mattapan as the department’s first Muslim captain,
he plans to have his officers walking not only the streets, but school
hallways.
“I want my guys to go into the
schools and spend 30 minutes and read” with a child, said Hosein, 52,
who received his captain’s shield Wednesday in a ceremony at police
headquarters. “I hate that police officers are always the bad guy. We
should be an asset.”
Hosein’s promotion makes him the
highest-ranking Muslim in the department, according to a police
spokesman, and one of three minority captains .
“The
promotion to captain of Haseeb Hosein goes directly to my commitment of
making the police department more reflective of the community we
serve,” Police Commissioner William Evans said in a statement. “It is
both historic and an honor for me to promote the first black Muslim
captain to my command staff.”
Mayor Martin J. Walsh said Hosein is “a fantastic addition to the leadership.”
“He is an exceptionally skilled, qualified
officer, with over two decades of experience in our neighborhoods,”
Walsh said in a statement. “He will be a strong advocate and continue to
build upon the strong community relationships we have developed in
Mattapan.”
A 26-year veteran of the
department who most recently worked as a lieutenant in Hyde Park, Hosein
came with his parents to America from Trinidad when he was 10. He grew
up in the Fields Corner section of Dorchester. Hosein received a
bachelor’s degree from the University of Massachusetts Boston and a
master’s in criminal justice from Boston University and served in the
Marine Corps for 11 years. He is married with three grown children.
‘He is an exceptionally skilled, qualified officer, with over two decades of experience in our neighborhoods.’
Before joining the Police Department, he
taught high school science for a year in Florida and then middle school
science in the Boston school system for three years.
As
a police officer, he has worked all over the city, including a stint in
Roxbury from 1993 to 2004, when homicide rates sometimes topped 80 per
year.
“I know Boston, I know it real well,” he said. “I feel very committed.”
Mattapan
is one of the city’s most violent districts, with nine homicides this
year by Oct. 19, according to police statistics. Hosein said the
district’s former leader, Captain Joseph Boyle, laid a strong foundation
of community policing, and he plans to continue those policies,
including an emphasis on walking beats and community policing.
“For me, gun violence and education is going to be the emphasis,” said Hosein. “Captain Boyle has done a great job over here.”
Police know who the troublemakers are, he said, and officers will be targeting them.
“I’m
going to introduce myself to them. I’m going to have a keen, dedicated
focus on them,” said Hosein. “We’re going to know them better than they
know themselves.”
But Hosein said his
officers will be respectful, and they will focus on violence prevention
as well. He said he is looking forward to working with school police and
to getting officers inside elementary schools to read with children. He
also plans to try to start a youth tennis program in Mattapan similar
to one run by an officer in South Boston. He will continue a boat cruise
for the elderly that Boyle started, as well as the district’s
partnership with churches and the clergy.
“Engaging
the community really works for getting guns off the streets,” he said.
“If we can really truly get them on board, have them believe that
they’re partners, we’re here with them. We’re not an occupying force.”
Hosein
served a four-month suspension after a complaint in 2007 that he and
several other officers repeatedly under-reported hours while performing
paid details, according to police records. Boston Police spokesman
Sergeant Michael McCarthy said the department has moved past the
incident.
“We’re not a department that
holds something over somebody’s head,” said McCarthy. “It doesn’t make
him any less qualified or deserving of a promotion.”
Hosein also said he had put the incident behind him.
“The police commissioner and the mayor looked at my record and they have faith that I can do the job,” he said.
As
the department’s first Muslim captain, he said, he feels he can inspire
young Muslims to join the force and serve as an ambassador for a faith
that is often viewed negatively.
“I can be a
voice to denounce violence, and let people know that the 1.6 billion
Muslims [in the world] are just like them,” Hosein said. “I hope to be
that voice that speaks out loud.”

HOUSTON, Texas — Zale Thompson, 32, attacked four New York City police officers with an 18.5 inch hatchet on Thursday. Many are speculating whether Thompson has ties to radicalized Muslim groups, as his Facebook page features an image of Islamic prayers behind a heavily-armed Muslim warrior. The attack came mere hours after Breitbart Texas leaked a Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) report warning of homegrown ISIS attacks against law enforcement.
The New York City hatchet attack left one police officer in critical condition, and another in stable condition. During the attack, officers opened fire on Thompson, killing him.
At this time, authorities do not know what prompted the attack — it appeared to be unprovoked.
While authorities have not yet confirmed links between Thomspon and extremist jihadi groups at this time, his Facebook page will likely question what role his Muslim beliefs may have played in the attack.
The event comes on the heel’s of Breitbart Texas’ release of the leaked FBI document titled, “Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant and Its Supporters Encouraging Attacks Against Law Enforcement and Government Personnel.”
The document claims that its purpose is to “provide information on the potential for Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) U.S.-based sympathizers to carry out attacks on law enforcement and government personnel.” It further states that the FBI and Department of Homeland Security “would like to ensure law enforcement and government personnel are aware that ISIL and its supporters continue to issue threats online.”
