You may well be right. It seems he’s participating in some sort of “jihad detox” program being run by DHS/FBI/DOJ and the CAIR.

In his mid-20s, Elibiary went from being a programmer in Dallas/Fort Worth to starting the Freedom and Justice Foundation, and immediately started moving in important DHS and FBI circles, and giving speeches on a national level. It was all very odd. The main thing Elibiary had going for him was his links to local MB/HAMAS/HLF circles and to a local mosque that was also the former home to the HLF.

And this really does seems to be a full-blown de-radicalization program. He’s bringing young jihadis back from the battle field to the US and trying to reintegrate them into the US.

A recent article in the Dallas Morning News says that Elibiary played a direct role in trying to “deradicalize” Abdul Muttalib, the underwear bomber, presumably when he was in Houston; a Houston young man recruited to Pakistan, whom Elibiary brought back to the US; and the Virginia 5, recruited by the Taliban.

This last case Elibiary regards as “failed” as the young men were arrested by Pakistan and sentenced to ten years.

Rather, Elibiary says, “You want to bring these kids back to their parents…. You want to get them the right kind of counseling, mentorship and a normal life in a healthy environment.”

To be clear, these young men have reached a point where they are ready to take bombs onto planes or are in training facilities in Afpak, __in a time of war__.

An article on altmuslimah (April 21, 2010, Life of a Muslim Re-Radicalizer) has further details on some of these cases, and Elibiary’s role in them.

Regarding the Virginia 5, rather than contact law enforcement, their families contacted “their mosques and Muslim civil rights organizations”, as well as Elibiary. Only then does he contact the FBI, to let them know that the young men were missing. It seems that Elibiary was then allowed to try to retrieve the “wayward” youths.

Elibiary is quoted in the same article as saying that the young jihadis are like “at-risk gangbangers, who want to stand up for their community, to address grievances of the global Muslim community.”

Is he saying that their cause is justified and that terrorism is just their way of acting out?

Is this the proper response to radicalized Muslim youth? Keeping them on the Brotherhood/Hamas reservation? Do the feds think they can domesticate the jihad?

And make no mistake, this program is deeply connected to CAIR with whom to work? Note the board of directors of the Freedom and Justice Foundation: Mouffa Nahhas (co-founder of DFW CAIR); Tarek Hussein (President of Cair Houston); Saaed Motawea (MAS public relations director); Iesa Galloway (executive director of CAIR chapter); Farha Ahmed (a former law clerk at CAIR-Chicago, who also played some role in the defense of Aafia Siddiqui aka Ms. Al Qaeda).
