The Young Muslims Sisters group have advertised their August Camp which will feature several radical Islamist speakers including Siraj Wahhaj and Ibrahim Negm. Both Siraj Wahhaj and Ibrahim Negm lectured at the 2001 Jihad Camp and a 2002 ‘Preparing for the Afterlife (Akhira) camp. http://www.militantislammonitor.org/article/id/2090 Ibrahim Negm is the head of the Young Muslims Islamic Learning Foundation, and teaches a syllabus which includes entries about Jihad like the following; ‘Jihad, the highest act, sacrificing everything , Jihad, and dying in the way of Allah' and ‘The importance of waging Jihad',.
Negm is the editor of ‘The Weekly Mirror International' ICNA magazine. In one article he explained toYoung Muslims that the afterlife is more desirable then this life ; We should not be distracted or exploited by the greedy multi- national companies out to shape our beliefs and values as well as to rip us off. While these Satanic institutions try hard to keep us busy, we must bear in mind that Islam gives the young person a very high and rewarding role of being active followers of the true Deen. There are countless rewards available for the young person who fights the ills and temptations of this world in return for the sanctity of the hereafter, and those who can see beyond the fake surface of the media and capitalism..." http://www.readmirror.com/youth.html
Siraj Wahhaj is an unindicted co conspirator in the 1993 World Trade Center bombings and appeared as a character witness on behalf of Omar Abdel Rahman the who was jailed for his role in the thwarted day of terror which targeted New York landmarks.
Wahhaj is best known for having his name on the list of potential co-conspirators in the 1993 bombing of the World Trade Center, as compiled by the office of then-U.S. Attorney Mary Jo White. During the 1996 trial for the World Trade Center bomb plot,Wahhaj served as a character witness for the leader of the conspiracy, Sheikh Omar Abdel Rahman He testified that it had been an honor to host Rahman at his (Wahhaj's) mosque, and he described Rahman as a "respected scholar." In addition, he called another convicted member of the bomb plot, Clement Rodney Hampton-El (a.k.a. Dr. Rashid), "one of the most respected brothers [of his congregation]." It was around this time that Wahhaj was recorded in a speech he gave at a mosque as saying, "I see the demise of the Soviet Union as a sign for the American people that what happened in the Soviet Union will definitely happen in America unless America changes its course from the new world order and accepts the Islamic agenda." http://www.militantislammonitor.org/article/id/389
At a recent demonstration against the Danish cartoons Wahhaj warned that Muslims "Had to make sure that they (infidels) do not do this again." Young Muslims is the youth division of ICNA and MAS. ICNA is the Islamic Circle of North America, and MAS is the Muslim American Society. Both groups have documented ties to Al Qaeda and the international terrorism network. One prominent New Jersey Imam, who often speaks at Muslim Youth camps, Mazen Mokhtar, is under investigation by the FBI for running an Al Qaeda website and was linked to a London bomb plotters who targetted landmarks in New York City.http://www.militantislammonitor.org/article/id/216 http://www.militantislammonitor.org/article/id/212 The Muslim American Society has raised legal funds on behalf of Omar Abu Ali, who was jailed for a plot to kill President Bush. http://www.militantislammonitor.org/article/id/1302 MAS also defended Ali Al Tamimi, who was jailed for recruiting students to wage Jihad. http://www.militantislammonitor.org/article/id/799 Beila Rabinowitz, the director of militant Islam Monitor is calling upon the YMCA, who claims their mission is to 'put Christian principles into practice to build a healthy mind, body, and spirit, for all' to disallow the Young Muslims organisation to use their premises for Jihadist indoctrination in the United States.
