Midwest Jihad?

The FBI affidavit filed against Rockford Jihadist Talib Abu Salam Ibn Shareef is a great read. I find Shareef’s words like the following to be disturbing yet almost entertaining in a “could be found in a John Singleton joint” kind of way. This is perhaps the most interesting line in the affidavit:

I’m ready man, these Kafirs don’t give a damn about us, niggers don’t care what happens to the Umma, about sisters getting raped, about brothers losing their (UI). They don’t care, man. All they care about is (UI)…I probably would have eventually ended up just stabbing the shit outta some Jews or something. Just stabbing them niggers with a steak knife.

Jihad is nothing new in the Midwest. It’s been alive and well at least since Zulfiqar Ali Shah arrived to serve as the spiritual leader for the Islamic Society of Milwaukee (he’d lost his previous job as a fundraiser for an Islamist charity when the Treasury Department shut it down for funneling money to terrorists). Hopefully words like Shareef’s will wake up a few folks to the growing presence of Jihadists in the upper Midwest.
