Update: Khetani on Monday told FOX News that the person responsible for the email reply had been fired. The Web site, meanwhile, has been temporarily taken down.

Over at the blog Euphoric Reality - http://euphoricreality.com/2007/01/24/who-is-behind-the-muslim-websites/ - they revealed an interesting piece of research about that retail site and perhaps something else that this is just one of many interconnected sites used by jihadists for some unknown purpose.
ReplyDeleteHis conclusion.
It is my considered opinion that the intricate network of websites I listed is a facade - a front, if you will - for something other than selling “bargain supplies.” Anyone looking at the websites can see that they are not legitimate businesses. I think the anomalies I’ve summarized here, and the Muslims involved, require further investigation.
Furthermore, the Khetani family is highly qualified in some very technical and unusual fields, with an extraordinary amount of access to sensitive information. It would be worth checking to see what their affiliations are, if their mosque is radicalized, and who their contacts are.
This network of Muslim individuals was brought to public attention because of one Muslim’s outrageous response to a simple inquiry by one of our soldiers. It would be the height of irony if nefarious purposes were exposed because he couldn’t refrain from announcing his anti-American sentiments.
You may be on to something WC. I looked at the Euphoric Reality piece and they mention there was a threat to bring a number of muslim advocacy groups against them.
