Facilitating Terror: American Academics Assist in the Boston Terrorist Attack, Yet See No Complicity On Their Part

Professor at UMass Dartmouth (the town of Dartmouth in Massachusetts, not the famous Ivy League University) Dr. Brian Glyn Williams expressed his fear that he may have inadvertently inspired his student, Boston Marathon bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, unto committing his terrorist attack in a phone call to the terrorist's former teacher Steve Matteo in the article by writer Steve Urbon, 'UMass Dartmouth professor: 'I hope I didn't contribute' on Southcoasttoday.com, April 19, 2013.
 
Reported in the article is the astonishing fact that Boston Bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev's teacher at Cambridge Rindge and Latin High School Steve Matteo readily admits to having referred Tsarnaev to Dr. Brian Glyn Williams of UMass.
 
Dr. Williams of UMASS e-mailed Mr. Matteo the Friday following the bombings, the 19^th of April, once he had learned that his former student was a suspect, and when Mr. Matteo responded with a phone call to the doctor, Dr. Willaims said over the phone, "I hope I didn't contribute to it. That kid and his brother identified with the Chechen struggle." "He was learning his Chechen identity, identifying with the diaspora and identifying with his homeland," he said.
 
"He wanted to learn more about Chechnya, who the fighters were, who the commanders were. I sort of gave him background."
 
Demonstrating how dangerous Liberal denial can actually be in a free society, journalist Steve Urbon reports as if perfectly rational teacher Steve Matteo's putting a Chechen Muslim studying in America who was demonstrating nationalistic loyalties towards his Muslim Chechen heritage in touch with a jihadist-sympathetic professor within the Liberal-socialist indoctrination camp of the University of Massachusetts such as Dr. Williams as "…a perfectly logical thing to do. English teacher Steve Matteo at Cambridge Rindge and Latin High School put his Chechen-born student in touch with a friend who happens to be one of the top experts on Chechnya, UMass Dartmouth's Dr. Brian Glyn Williams."
 
Dr. Williams is quoted in the article making an audacious attempt at denying any link between Boston Marathon terrorist Dzhokhar Tsarnaev and Al Qaeda despite long established intelligence that Saudi elements of Al Qaeda have co-opted command and control of Chechen Muslim Jihadist operations.
 
"In Williams' view, Chechnya has an undeserved reputation as a hatchery of terrorists, including Al Qaeda and the Taliban.
 
"Foreign fighters did come in and radicalized people," Williams said. For some, "they transformed the form of war from a national one to a full-blown terrorist jihad."
 
Take careful note of the last two statements by Dr. Williams: They are antithetical to one another. He uses classic Jihadist double-speak denying and affirming the reality of the Al Qaeda co-opting of command and control of Chechen Muslim zealots, jihadists, in the same breath.
 
On the one hand Dr. Williams maintains that "…Chechnya has an undeserved reputation as a hatchery of terrorists, including Al Qaeda and the Taliban." While on the other hand asserting that "Foreign fighters did come in and radicalize people," that "For some, "they transformed the form of war from a national one to a full-blown terrorist jihad.""
 
Dr Williams "…charges there is no basis for an Al Qaeda link, or even a Taliban link, for that matter. But years of Russian disinformation, 9/11, and a sloppy American media worsened Chechnya's reputation.
In a book to be published next year, "Inferno in the Caucus: The Chechen insurgency and the Mirage of Al Qaeda," he says that no matter what the Chechens are, "they are not Al Qaeda. Repeat: They are not Al Qaeda.""
 
Dr. Williams has already begun an informational jihadist's defense of the reputation of Chechnya's militant Muslim jihadist's existential reality and the reality of Al Qaeda's having long ago co-opted the command and control of said Islamist terrorists.
 
Dr. Williams has adopted the classic dis-informational jihadist stance of denial, denial, denial.
 
Keep in mind that this denial is coming from a man who by his own admission may have directly contributed to the inspiration of the attack at the Boston Marathon.
 
Does no one in Massachusetts recall how to administer tar and feathers anymore?
 
No doubt an investigation into the doctor's affiliation will demonstrate his Liberal Leftist support for Islam, jihad, and a 'Palestinian' state to be carved out of Israel. Following the money, it would not be surprising to find that the doctor receives copious funding from Islamic front organizations.
 

Lorenzo Vidino, who was at the time of the writing of his article Deputy Director at the Investigative Project, a Washington D.C. based counterterrorism research institute, exposes the Al Qaeda co-opting of the Islamic jihad in Chechnya in his article 'How Chechnya Became a Breeding Ground for Terror.' Middle East Quarterly, Summer 2005, Vol. XII, Number 3.

 

Most significantly as it is relative to the Boston Bombing is the revelation of the employment of ricin in attacks by Chechen jihadists under the command and control of Al Qaeda (read Saudi) elements. Two ricin attacks took place immediately in the wake of the two bombs in Boston. The person charged with the attacks maintains he had nothing to do with it.

 

The capture of a Saudi suspect who was so close to the operation that he purportedly received injuries in the blast of one of the bombs; an individual who comes from the Al Harbi clan of Al Qaeda affiliated Wahhabi jihadists must not be swept aside as unrelated. To do so would be an immense, treasonous miscarriage of justice.

 

Mister Obama's highly unusual meeting with a Saudi Minister immediately prior to a decision having been made to deport the Saudi suspect for national security reasons cannot be viewed as anything less than treasonous complicity in pushing forth a false narrative that the Al Harbi clan member had nothing to do with the Boston Massacre.

 

A ricin attack on the heels of a terrorist attack by two Chechen Muslims should have been identified as a red flag indicating nothing less than the very signature of the command and control of the attack as being Al Qaeda led from within the Chechen theater of Islamic jihad operations.

 

In view of the fact that Saudi command and control of Chechen jihadists has been established long ago, and the fact that RICIN is a reality within the Chechen theater of operations in the war in which Islam is engaged against all non-Islamic societies, the failure on the part of American national security intelligence agencies to connect the likelihood of the terrorists responsible for the Boston Marathon bombing as originating from the Chechen stage—Chechen executed and Saudi commanded—is inexcusable.

 

"Over the last decade, Islamist terrorists have co-opted the Chechen cause as part of a global jihad. Umar Ibn al-Khattab, a Saudi native who became the leader of the foreign mujahideen in Chechnya, said, "This case is not just a Chechen matter but an Islamic matter, like Afghanistan.[4].""

 

"The global reach of Al-Qaeda's Chechen cells was demonstrated by the fact that the ricin's manufacture was consistent with descriptions in Al-Qaeda manuals and in a notebook found by Russian Special Forces during a raid of a Chechen rebel base.[63] According to the Kremlin's spokesman for Chechen issues, Sergei Yastrzhembsky, the ricin investigation showed that Chechnya had become part of a "network of international terrorist organizations."[64]""
 
"As Islamism supplanted nationalism as the motivating factor of the Chechen cause, hundreds of Muslim youths from the Middle East and Europe flocked to Chechnya. Aukai Collins, a Hawaiian convert to Islam, published an account of fighting in Chechnya.[16] Turkey and Jordan, both home to large ethnic Chechen populations, saw an intense movement of fighters.[17]
 
Ibn al-Khattab remained the key figure in the spread of international jihad to Chechnya, though. Knowledge of his past is the key to understanding the depth of Al-Qaeda's involvement in Chechnya."

"Years before these Chechen terrorists carried out the Boston Marathon bombings Judicial Watch uncovered critical intelligence documents detailing al Qaeda's activities in Chechnya, including the creation of a 1995 camp—ordered by Osama bin Laden—to train "international terrorists" to carry out plots against Americans and westerners.

 

The goal, according to the once-classified documents obtained by JW in 2011, was to "establish a worldwide Islamic state capable of directly challenging the U.S., China, Russia, and what it views as Judeo-Christian and Confucian domination." Further, radical Islamic regimes were to be established and supported everywhere possible, from "sea to sea," including Chechnya. "Terrorist activities are to be conducted against Americans and westerners…" according to the report issued by the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA).

 

In other words, it was only a matter of time before terrorists from the
predominantly radical Islamic republic carried out an attack on U.S. soil.

 

Chechnya declared independence from Russia in 1991 and Chechen militants are quite the savvy terrorists because they've successfully targeted Moscow with bombings and hostage plots for more than two decades."

 

"There's no telling how many of these Chechen terrorists have infiltrated the United States or how many opportunities the government has missed to protect the country by deporting them. Osama bin Laden specifically chose Chechnya as a terrorist training camp because it's an "area unreachable by strikes from the west," according to the intelligence report obtained by JW years ago."

Adding insult to injury, the illegitimate 'First Lady' of the United States of America—for in truth America currently has no legal sitting president as Mister Obama fraudulently represented himself as constitutionally eligible to be president when he was illegally elected—visited the Saudi suspect at the hospital where he is located in Boston, yet did not bother to visit Jeff Bauman, the heroic athlete who lost both of his legs in the bombing and who provided the description of the bombers to investigators.

 

One can only imagine the message Michelle Obama was tasked with relaying to the Al Harbi family. Then again, one needs not imagine—to be sure Michelle Obama relayed to the terrorist clan in Saudi Arabia her innermost, heart-felt feelings concerning the Boston Massacre and screamed: "AALLLLAAAAHHUUUAAAAHHHKKBBBAAARRRR!"
