The Intelligence Division had learned quickly that the internet was becoming an important tool of terrorist organizations. The internet had also become a threatening source of information on bomb-making material, explosive devices of all kinds, and manufacturing techniques, thus obviating the need to travel to locations like Afghanistan for this type of training.

As a result, over time, the NYPD developed a cadre of detectives, fluent in a wide range of languages from Arabic to Urdu, who spent their days online looking for postings and websites that promoted terrorism. ITS was essentially the U. Largely unwelcome in New York City mosques, ITS organized provocative events, like the desecration of the American flag, in neighborhoods populated by a Muslim majority as well as in public spaces such as Times Square.

Investigation and Penetration Phase: Beginning the Investigation When it came time to open a new investigation, legal oversight and approval was crucial. Hand chosen, they [are] smart, highly motivated, and fully understanding of the complexity of what they [are] about to do as professionals. They go through an intense six-month training program run by the undercover unit itself, usually in hotel rooms or locations far from New York City.

The pressure on the UCs, their handlers, and their managers is intense as the stakes are high—to the UC and the investigation they are involved in. The UCs are a cadre of officers who have blended naturally with the persons, clusters, and organizations under investigation. When Staten Island resident Abdel Hameed Shehadeh traveled to Pakistan in for jihadi training he was turned back at the airport by Pakistani authorities based on intelligence provided by a different NYPD undercover officer.

Shehadeh had volunteered his plan to the undercover officer who was part of the Shehadeh cluster investigation in a car less than 24 hours before his scheduled departure to Islamabad. Another backbone of the Intelligence Division operations involved using confidential informants CIs to get close to those persons, clusters, or organizations under investigation.

Division management at all levels knew this would be a first line of defense in prosecution of a terrorist case. Pimental was arrested on the evening of November 19, by members of the NYPD bomb squad as he finalized the construction of three homemade explosive devices in an apartment in Washington Heights. The multi-year investigation of Pimental by the Intelligence Division required two confidential informants and an undercover officer.

The proviso was that they come from the best schools and have relevant backgrounds. The unit was a unique experiment among traditional law enforcement organizations as it comprised more than two dozen civilian experts—lawyers; academics; former corporate consultants and investment bankers; veterans of the Central Intelligence Agency, National Security Agency, and the Council on Foreign Relations; and graduates of top national security graduate school programs at Columbia, Princeton, Georgetown, Tufts, and John Hopkins, among others.

Bridging the cultural gap between civilian and uniformed personnel was critical to the success of the Intelligence Division. As a follow-on decision, at the working level, only the civilian analyst s involved in an investigation was authorized to see the reporting from all CIs and UCs involved in that case. It therefore fell to analysts to collate the information, analyze it, identify gaps, and set intelligence collection requirements for both the UC and CI programs.

This empowerment of the civilian analysts helped make them full partners with the investigators. Over the course of the next decade, the NYPD analysts worked with federal agencies and international partners as those international links became more relevant. For example, in , the analytic unit identified that Revolution Muslim was in contact via chat rooms and email with like-minded individuals in the United Kingdom and then passed that intelligence through a direct NYPD partnership with the British Metropolitan Police, which led to the arrest of Bilal Zaheer Ahmad, an extremist blogger from Wolverhampton.

In November , Ahmad praised Roshonara Choudhry for attempting to kill a British member of parliament over his support for the Iraq War. Crushing the Network: Prosecution and Arrest Despite the arrests of members of the extended Revolution Muslim network between and in the United States and overseas, the group remained resilient and viable.

Hesibeh, Abdel Aziz formally Ezra , and Abdullah formally Ovadia during these years I tried to convince myself that Judaism was a true path and I just didn't understand it because I never read the entire set of Talmud and it 3 different ways of understanding it including the "hidden level". You see this is the trick in the rabbinical cult, you will not EVER finish learning all the rabbinic text thus u are subservient to the Rabbis aka Elders of Zion who will interpret Judaism for you.

During this time frame the Rabbis saw that we doubted there beliefs thus constantly followed our family contacting all new friends and employers etc. The Rabbis were starting to be a big nuisance as were the Rabbinical Jews, so seeking a better future elsewhere we loaded up the family and moved to Palestine. September, we now arrived in Ghaza [Gaza] , or what the Jewish squatters refer to as Gush Qatif.

Quickly my wife was turned off by the lies of the folk there and my son Abdel Rahman came running home from school one day saying "Daddy, my teacher doesn't cover her hair properly, her dress is to short, they don't learn Torah here and all they do is play"!! Maashaallah[ 2 ], my son was very correctl, so with no possessions or money we set off to find a home in the nearby Jew settlement of Netivot in occupied Palestine.

Shas, a "religious political party" immediately helped us by providing a home and their private school system and my kids went from knowing NO Hebrew to being tops in there class alhumdulilah. During our stay in Netivot I met a Muslim from UAEm, and we had conversations for about two years where he would ask me questions about Jewish Aqeedah or Jewish creed, and then compare it to Tawheed al Elohiya a part of Islamic Monotheism.

I would then go and ask major Rabbis questions about the Jewish creed and always got different answers. Archived from the original on Retrieved Retrieved June 15, Access ADL. Anti-Defamation League.
