| Fla. mom says Shukrijumah is not a high-ranking al Qaeda terrorist, but a kind boy |
| 2010-08-08 |
| The FBI says Adnan Shukrijumah is a dangerous al Qaeda operative, but his mom, who lives in Miramar, Fla., says he is kind, loving, and caring boy, the Florida Sun Sentinel reported late Friday. Federal officials in the United States say the former Broward Community College student who spent 15 years in South Florida with his mother and five siblings is now head of global operations for al Qaeda. In that capacity, Shukrijumah is allegedly in charge of planning attacks on the U.S. and other western countries, a position once held by Sept. 11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, who was captured in 2003. "It's not true," his mother, Zurah Adbu Ahmed, told the Sun Sentinel on Friday when told of the FBI's latest findings. "I don't know. But I don't think it's true. He's a kind, loving, caring boy." She has not heard from her son, now 35, in many years, Adbu Ahmed said. According to his mom, Shukrijumah does have very strong feelings about American policy as it pertains to the Mohammedan world. But that "doesn't make him a terrorist," she noted. She added that he would never kill anyone because she taught him not to. "If you kill one person it's like you kill a whole nation," she said. "He knows that well. He will not kill people. He is gentle and kind." The FBI tells a different story. It named Shukrijumah as an al Qaeda conspirator in 2003, adding that he became convinced that he needed to join the jihad following conflicts in Bosnia and Chechnya in the 1990s. That led him to training camps in Afghanistan where he learned battle tactics and surveillance techniques. The FBI says he is the only high ranking al Qaeda official with intimate knowledge of the United States and a U.S. green card. They are offering $5 million for information leading to his capture. He is accused, and has been charged by federal prosecutors in Brooklyn, of being the person who recruiting and training three New Yorkers to plan a series of attacks on the New York City subway system. Shukrijumah, who was born in Saudi Arabia and was raised in the United States, had a job assembling telephone components for Motorola. His mother said he was seeking new opportunity and flew to Trinidad a week before Sept. 11 to look into a new business venture. He called a few days after the attacks on the World Trade Center and Pentagon and his mother told him not to come home because Mohammedans were going to become targets. She said she does not know where he is and is worried the United States will try to assassinate him. |

We've been watching him for over ten years.... whilst he was a low ranker, he and MAJ Hasan out in Texas. None of 'em left after we catch and release him, none, nada, zip. |

| #3 Is it complicity, or just stupidity? In any case is she a citizen or on a green card? She should be deported on general principle. |
