On Christmas day, 2020, an Improvised Explosive Device exploded in downtown Nashville -- an explosive device so powerful it damaged and/or destroyed more than 40 businesses and injured eight people.
At the center of the bomb blast was an AT&T facility. Communications were affected in an area that encompassed several states bordering Tennessee.
Yet ... within 24 hours of this enormous blast, news of it began to disappear. We learned little about the bomb itself, and very little about the bomber. Mainstream media went silent.
The following are key points of an Intelligence report by John Guandolo of Understanding the Threat.(1)
1. The attack occurred on Christmas after the Global Islamic Movement called for Christmas Day attacks in the West.
2. The U.S. Muslim Brotherhood has been recruiting "clean faces" (people who do not look Muslim) for all levels of their operations.
3. Nashville has a high concentration of jihadi leaders and organizations -- all of whom have been supported by Nashville's law enforcement and civic leaders.
4. Jihadis work directly with Black Lives Matters and Antifa and often serve in leadership positions in these organizations.
5. The FBI addressed the bombing as a "criminal matter only"; i.e. they are not looking into possible terrorist ties.
6. This bombing sends several signals, three of which are:
7. The FBI and related investigating agencies will deem Anthony Warner as a mentally-ill loner with no connection to terrorist groups.
We were told that Anthony Warner of Antioch, TN was the bomber. Out of curiosity I looked up the Islamic Center of Antioch. Like most "Islamic Centers," it is a Mega Complex. There are several buildings and training centers besides a mosque.
48 miles from Nashville is a main jihadi camp created by Muslims of America (MOA), which has a long, well-known history of terrorist ties.
Upon further investigation, I found that enormous "Islamic Centers" have been cropping up throughout Tennessee and they always include more than one other enormous building, or, the property belonging to the Islamic Center encompasses enough land to continue adding buildings.

- Christians - we do not respect you and will come at you on your High Holy Days
- Citizens - your government can't protect you
- Police - you are defenseless and incapable of protecting your community

All of these Islamic Centers teach Islamic Law (Quran and Hadith classes) as well as various activist type classes for youth, and of course Interfaith, which claims Judaism, Christianity and Islam come from the same source and that Islam is the final word of God.
Awadh Binhazim, one of the directors of the Islamic Center of Tennessee (aka Antioch Islamic Center), made headlines when he said that as a Muslim, he had no choice but to "go with what Islam teaches." What does Islam teach?
64% of the Quran continuously makes a distinction between non-Muslims and Muslims -- pointing out the inferior status of non-Muslims.
19% of the Quran is devoted to violent conquest and subjugation of non-Muslims.
The Quran contains well over 100 verses that call Muslims to war (jihad) with non-Muslims for the sake of Islamic rule and stresses the implementation of Islamic Law on all people.
(see: Inside the Quran: Hatred and violence )
Binhazim, director of the Antioch Islamic Center is also the president of Olive Tree Education, an outreach program that claims "to propagate the message of Islam." Binhazim taught alongside Imam Abdulhakim Mohamed, former imam of the al-Farouq mosque, which was identified in the 9/11 Commission Report as a major source of funding for Osama Bin Laden and other terrorist organizations.(2)
Regarding the Memphis Islamic Center, Mosaad Rawash was suspended from the center's board pending an investigation into his support for Hamas and radical Islam after the Investigative Project on Terrorism unveiled radical comments and photos on his MySpace page.
The Memphis Islamic Center calls itself "a religious, nonpolitical organization [that] does not support any radical views of any kind," but a list of books posted on its website showed it supports at least two radical clerics. Steven Emerson of the Investigative Project said, "It includes titles from Yusuf al-Qaradawi, the spiritual mentor to the International Muslim Brotherhood" and "Harun Yahya" (which pushes for a Caliphate).(3)
Throughout Tennessee, as well as many other states, there are enormous "Islamic Centers" -- all are teaching Quran and Hadith -- Islamic Law. And of course, jihad--which is a major tenet of Islam.
A 2004 report funded by the Justice Department identified Dover, Tennessee as having a jihadi training compound for the terrorist group Muslims of America (MOA).(4)
A 2006 report said Dover is home to one of at least seven “covert paramilitary training compounds.”(5)
There are now at least 35 covert jihadi training compounds throughout America.(6)
Never Forget Basic Islamic Doctrine: Non-Muslims are subordinate to Muslims and are to be fought until they are either killed or forced to acknowledge their inferior status by either converting to Islam or paying a tax. If they choose to pay the tax they are then forced to accept the second place standing of their own religion. There are no human rights in Islam. No human rights or equality can exist because the Quran is laid out explicitly stating that people are not equal.
