JIHAD IN MEMPHIS?

By Michelle Malkin  •  April 17, 2005 08:22 AM

Jihad Watch is on a roll this weekend. Here’s an entry about Rafat Jamal Mawlawi, a U.S.-Syrian dual citizen who according to the Memphis Flyer “is suspected of organizing a scam to illegally bring Moroccan men into the United States by arranging sham marriages and engagements to women from Memphis.”

During its investigation of the alleged marriage/immigration scam, the FBI stumbled onto a number of disturbing items, the Flyer reports:

What the FBI found was much more troubling: a hidden stash of loaded weapons and ammunition clips, $34,000 in cash, two pictures of Mawlawi shouldering a rocket-propelled grenade launcher, a gruesome videotape of war casualties with Arabic text and voiceover, and more than 20 passports to Morocco, Syria, Iran, and other Middle Eastern countries….

Also found was a videotape which starts with the words “al Mujahadeen” and pictures of a firearm. The voiceover is in Arabic, Parker said. The word “mujahadeen” has come into common use in news reports since the onset of the war in Iraq. It is variously translated as “those engaged in jihad,” “holy warriors,” “Islamic warriors,” and “soldiers of God.”
