Posted on by October 12, 2016

I recommend this book for those who wish to know more about the professional Islam-bashers of the United States (although the coverage of this scene is by far not comprehensive).

Bin Laden’s man in Silicon Valley

Posted on by October 7, 2006
"Ali A. Mohamed [aka Ali Amriki] was the California connection to Osama bin Laden’s fearsome terrorist organization — an architect of horrific acts of violence against his adopted country, even as he lived a quiet suburban lifestyle in Silicon Valley… Now [Sept. 21, 2001] in prison and presumed to be a government informant, Mohamed could be a key connection for U.S. investigators probing bin Laden’s links to the suicide hijackers who flew jetliners into the World Trade Center and Pentagon last week, some experts say."
