Rafia Farook, the mother of San Bernardino terrorist Syed Rizwan Farook, is an active member of the Islamic Circle of North America (ICNA), a Muslim organization that promotes the establishment of a caliphate and has ties to a radical Pakistani political group called Jamaat-e-Islami.
Farook’s affiliation with ICNA was revealed on Friday when MSNBC and other new outlets scoured the Farooks’ apartment in Redlands, Cal. An MSNBC reporter found a certificate of appreciation presented to Rafia Farook last summer by ICNA’s sisters’ wing.
…
Though ICNA has not been named as a target in the ongoing investigation into Wednesday’s attack, the group has been associated with many others who have engaged in terrorism or plotted to do so.
Al-Qaeda recruiter Anwar al-Awlaki has spoken at the group’s events. He spoke at an ICNA event in Baltimore in 2002, though the group has said that al-Awlaki was not radicalized at that time. Al-Awlaki exchanged emails with Nidal Hasan, the Army major who killed 13 people in a terrorist attack at Fort Hood in Nov. 2009. Al-Awlaki was killed by a U.S. drone strike in 2011 in Yemen.

Mother of Syed Farook is a Member of Pro-Caliphate Islamic Group that has ties to Radical Pakistani Group
Mommy knows best. I guess this is why the MSM has been trying to paint the wife as the leader of the assault but seems that the apple does not fall far from the tree.
The mother of the man who with this with kiiled 14 last week has ties not only to a US led pro-Caliphate group but she has ties to radical Islam in Pakistan. The entire family is lying at this point folks. ALL of them.
CAIR is defending, once again, people who have ties not to a religion but to Radicalization.

This ties back to Hasan....and he was tied to the others....
Looks like Trump was right again....
NEW YORK, NY (December 5, 2015) – The Islamic Circle of North America is repulsed at attempts by some in the media to link the suspects of the recent attacks in San Bernardino to the organization’s women’s division. Certain media sources reported that a certificate of appreciation from ICNA Sister’s Wing addressed to the mother of one of the suspects was found in the home during a search on Friday.
ICNA Sisters Wing is the women’s division of ICNA, which strives to provide Islamic classes and seminars to women of all races and backgrounds. All attendees of these educational programs receive certificates of appreciation at the conclusion of these classes.
On Twitter, San Bernardino terrorist Syed Rizwan Farook followed several accounts associated with Muslim Brotherhood, including the official accounts of Free Syrian Army and the Syrian Revolution Network.
PJMedia’s Patrick Poole found that, while Farook never seemed to tweet from this account, several of the 11 accounts he followed were institutional Twitter accounts with ties to large Islamic organizations in America which have controversial histories and ties to the Muslim Brotherhood, Hamas and other Islamist movements.
It is significant that Farook followed what many in American media would call “mainstream” Islamic organizations, rather than some of the more notorious ISIS-affiliated social media feeds. While these groups have the patina of respectability and often condemn terrorist events in the United States, many rationalize terrorism abroad as legitimate resistance or have, as their goal, the implementation of Islamic law in America.
President Obama and his administration continue to support the global Islamist militant group known the Muslim Brotherhood. A White House strategy document regards the group as a moderate alternative to more violent Islamist groups like al Qaeda and the Islamic State.
The policy of backing the Muslim Brotherhood is outlined in a secret directive called Presidential Study Directive-11, or PSD-11. The directive was produced in 2011 and outlines administration support for political reform in the Middle East and North Africa, according to officials familiar with the classified study.
The directive outlines why the administration has chosen the Muslim Brotherhood, which last year was labeled a terrorist organization by the governments of Saudi Arabia, Egypt and the United Arab Emirates as a key vehicle of U.S. backing for so-called political reform in the Middle East.
The UAE government also has labeled two U.S. affiliates of the Muslim Brotherhood, the Council on American-Islamic Relations and the Muslim American Society, as terrorist support groups.
Nice find. I hope they burn all of their connections to the ground. Make an example out of them and begin the cleansing of Islamic radicals from the US.
Ship her ass to Pakistan
This crap has gone on long enough. It is time to stop worrying about feels and emotional sensibilities and start defending the citizenry from this bullcrap.

I honestly don't give a goddamn flip. It's time for some extremism to occur among the sane citizens of the US. My version of extremism removes them from America, their version of extremism removes us from the living... which is dangerous and which one is justifiable?
