Somali-American tried to stop Al-Shabaab jihad recruitment in U.S., so Hamas-linked CAIR called him an "Islamophobe"

Bihi blames CAIR with coming between his organization and the Abubakar as-Saddique mosque in Minneapolis. “It’s a big mosque,” he said. “That mosque lately has been doing works to combat al-Shabaab.” But he said when the mosque was more closely affiliated with CAIR, it was a center for recruitment by radicals. “All of our kids were going there for years. That’s where indoctrination happened,” he said.
“[The al-Shabaab recruiters] become the father they never had,” Bihi told TheDC. ”They engage them. And the way they engage them, is — these angry young men who are left on the street, it’s like, ‘[Americans] don’t like you. They hate you. So we’ll love you.’ In the end, they end up being brainwashed.”
Bihi says the Obama administration promised to “spend a hundred million dollars in the community here,” but never came through. He blames Obama for not doing enough to address the recruitment of Somali Americans and says and Secretary of State John Kerry ignored the growth of al-Shabaab in Somalia.

“At least 25 young men have disappeared from [Minneapolis] to fight for al-Shabab in the past three years, and dozens more are being investigated on suspicion of recruiting or fundraising on behalf of the terrorist organization,” wrote the Washington Post in a 2011 profile of Bihi. Bihi fears the figure is higher than fifty.
Law enforcement sources told TheDC that at least four and possibly as many as six of the terrorists involved in the Kenya terrorist attack are Somali-Americans, not just the three that were previously reported.
“I’ve been worried about this kind of thing happening at the Mall of America,” says Tim Clemente, a retired FBI agent who tracked the precursor terrorist organizations to al-Shabaab organizations, like the Islamic Court.
“Most Somalis are Sufi Muslims,” explains Clemente. But the “Al-Shabaab are Wahabi. They are a distinct minority within Somalia and they are more ruthless and demonic than even the Taliban at the height of their reign, with more stonings and more beheadings.”
Clemente worked to track down all of the anti-American clans who availed themselves of America’s immigration policy that was preferential to minority clans.
