Arizona Physician Tied To Terror Organization
A 41 year old physician living in Arizona has recently been detained upon returning to the U.S. http://www.azcentral.com/news/articles/0119hassan19.html. Nadeem Hassa, a gastroenterologist has ties to an organization Jamaat al Tabligh (Society That Propagates the Faith) which the State Department has listed as a terrorist group. Some information on JAT's ties to terror in the U.S. and around the world can be found here: http://www.meforum.org/article/686
and the State Department's discussion on Al-Qaeda connections, http://www.fas.org/sgp/crs/terror/RL32759.pdf.
And while JAT may be regarded in some circles as a fundamentalist or ultra-orthodox group united to spread the word of Islam, and in particular Sharia, it has proved to be a fertile breeding ground for terrorists.
