Al Qaeda Is In Jersey? Fugedaboudit…Whack These Pukes
We know who to call for this one.
Osama bin Laden may be hiding in the impenetrable mountains near the Afghanistan border, but FBI counterterror officials say they have identified several of his associates in a far more accessible spot — northern New Jersey.
The FBI’s elite Joint Terrorism Task Force in Newark says it is not only monitoring a number of North Jersey residents with ties to al-Qaida, but that agents have quietly “disrupted” their activities and even deported a few.
These glimpses into North Jersey’s war on terrorism, from a series of interviews with task force leaders, come on the heels of revelations last summer that Bin Laden’s terror network had regained strength. But that rebuilding was thought to have taken place overseas.
This is the first time since the 9/11 attacks that FBI counterterror officials have revealed an al-Qaida presence in North Jersey.
“There are definitely facilitators in this state,” said Kevin Cruise, the veteran FBI counterterror agent who directs Newark’s 100-member terrorism task force of FBI and CIA agents as well as state police and even local beat cops.
One of Cruise’s deputies was even more specific.
“There are people in your county who are affiliated with known al-Qaida members overseas,” said Jack Jupin, the FBI agent who heads the counterterror squad for Bergen County.
Cruise, who supervised FBI investigations of terrorist bombings of U.S. embassies in East Africa and the USS Cole before taking over the Newark task force, cautioned that his agents have no information about an imminent attack here. But he said several al-Qaida sympathizers would try if given the chance.
“There are many people who are like-minded who want to commit acts of terrorism and have just not taken that extra step,” said Cruise, who keeps a “wanted” poster of Bin Laden on his office wall.
Sometimes, he said, counterterror agents “disrupt” these North Jersey residents with al-Qaida ties.
Cruise declined to describe any case in detail. But in general, such disruption methods ranged from outright deportations to quiet visits by FBI agents in which suspected terrorists are told their activities are being monitored.
“There are many disruptions that occur that the public does not know about,” Cruise said.

October 15th, 2007 at 10:03 amTerrorist in America. Theses are the people the left is protecting. Remember all the B.S. the left brought up for trying to stop wire taps on people in this country trying to communicate with KNOWN suspected terrorist located outside of this country without a warrant. The left sees this as an intrusion against America. It’s another example of politics trumping American safety.
Maybe instead of deporting the terrorists we should move them into the same houses that Nancy Peloci and Harry Reid live in.
October 15th, 2007 at 10:07 amThe mob helped out during WWII, why not now? If some of those jihadis and poser e-jihadis that Bashman loves end up with a .22 slug behind their ear and their balls in their mouth and let THAT get into the MSM and maybe these fuckwads will decide to go back to their original 12th century shithole and let the rest of us get back to our business.
October 15th, 2007 at 10:14 amI live bout an hour north of NYC
October 15th, 2007 at 10:22 amThis is nothing really new aside from the fact that Al-Qaeda
is mentioned directly ,, these are probably the same jihadi Raghead Fuckers that danced in the streets of Patterson & Clifton NJ on the morning of 9-11
At least the government & MSM are saying that they know they are here and being watched ,, But every Hillary loving Liberal will start screaming about wire taps & the Patriot Act
If you build mosques they will come.
October 15th, 2007 at 10:46 amRemember when the NJ Gov. McGreevey appointed his boyfriend as the counterrorism/security chief for NJ? Good thing it was exposed and they put someone else in the job, or maybe this activity would not have been discovered.
October 15th, 2007 at 10:49 amI went to a university in Northern New Jersey. The large muslim population of students aren’t shy to express their desire to destroy Israel and for the US to be defeated. Not only that, but all of the female muslims are forced into marriages by their early 20’s. Whether they like it or not.
If you go to Patterson, it looks like a mini-Saudi Arabia.
I have always wondered why these areas aren’t monitored. I can breathe a collective sigh of relief along with the rest of the New Jersey population that they are indeed being watched.
October 15th, 2007 at 12:02 pmsteve m, not to mention the old waking up with a horse’s head in bed with you. How’s this sound, waking up with a pig’s head in bed with you?
October 15th, 2007 at 12:11 pmI live in Columbia, Mo, which has one of the largest muslim populations in the country. I have been reading 2 different books, and they both have identified my area as a hotbed for Hamas and other terrorist groups to fundraise and recruit student who go the U of Missouri. It makes me very nervous that there re that many around, and it is evidenced by occasional FBI raids on muslim charities here and a hunting buddy of mine works for the FBI doing intelligence gatheringout of KC and he passes though often enough.
Bottom line, stop letting terrorists go to american universities and deport anyone who has ties to any terrorist state.
