NEFA has released another report in their series about homegrown Jihadist terror plots. This one concerns the attempt by Derrick Shareef, A.K.A. Talib abu Salam ibn Shareff, to carry out a granade attack in a crowded Midwestern mall:
On the heels of the foiled plots targeting Fort Dix and JFK Airport, the Nine Eleven Finding Answers (NEFA) Foundation announces the release of the third in a series of reports examining the multitude of terrorist plots directed at the United States since 9/11. This week’s report again focuses on the homegrown threat, documenting Derrick Shareef’s plans to launch a grenade attack on the CherryVale Shopping Center in Rockford, Illinois. In preparation for his assault, Shareef carried out surveillance, attempted to procure weapons, and recorded a martyrdom tape, in which he ominously warned: “My name is Talib Abu Salam Ibn Shareef. I am 22 years of age. I am from America, and this tape is to let you guys know, who disbelieve in Allah, to let the enemies of Islam know, and to let the Muslims alike know that the time for jihad is now.”
Read the report, it’s scary stuff.
