Former Congressional Candidate Conspires to Mass Murder Muslims

Robert Doggart conspired to commit acts of terrorism against US citizens

Islamophobia? What Islamophobia ? So where was he radicalized? I am sure we will have demands for condemnation from the media, and “experts” ready to support profiling white looking congressmen? I won’t hold my breath.

It has been nearly a month since his arrest with very little to no media reaction. Most of the media coverage has been in the last two days, that is nearly a month after his arrest and after the community issued a press release to raise awareness of being the targets of mass violence. Do we even need to imagine what would have happened if he was Muslim? The media firestorm and mass paranoia and Islamophobia would be pervasive.

Former Congressional Candidate Conspires to Terrorize, Commit Mass Murder, Burn Mosque and School of Islamberg Village in New York

In Press Releases On 15 May 2015

HANCOCK, NY — FBI officials arrested and charged former 4th Congressional District candidate Robert R. Doggart of Signal Mountain, Tennessee in connection with a plot to kill residents and destroy the school and mosque of the Muslim village of Islamberg in Hancock, NY. The criminal complaint, filed in federal court April 20 in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Tennessee, shows Doggart, age 63, planned to use an M4 rifle, explosives, machete and, if needed, snipers. He warned that those who joined his team should prepare for hand-to-hand combat with any residents encountered in his pursuit. The Muslims of America, Inc., the religious organization under threat, was notified of the danger and worked with state and federal officials to provide residents with round the clock security.Court records show that Doggart is a graduate of LaSalle University with both masters and doctorate degrees, and is an engineer by training and trade who ran for U.S. Representative in the 2014 election. Doggart’s plan to bomb Islamberg served to put the United States government on notice of his gripes. “I got this battalion that I command and they want to go take action. [They] are so sick and tired of the crap the government is pulling that we go take a small military installation or we go burn down a Muslim church…,” reported Doggart in a wire tapped telephone conversation.

The criminal affidavit also indicates that Doggart travelled to South Carolina and Texas to meet with members of so-called militia who shared a similar hatred of the U.S. and Muslims. This activity matches an increase in unwelcomed strangers visiting properties of The Muslims of America in South Carolina, Texas and other states. Interestingly, RSS Internet posts by Doggart on August 28, 2014, show he did in fact go to a TMOA location in Tennessee, “I traveled to Dover, Tennessee in Stewart County yesterday…”. On Saturday, May 9, 2015, Islamberg residents reported to authorities a suspicious pickup truck at the entrance to their property with an insignia on the back titled “10th  Mountain Division”. When approached, the vehicle drove off speedily. Doggart sold his evil scheme against Islamberg as a suicide mission where losing his life was worth the sacrifice, “If Hancock, NY happens, so be it. And I’ll do what I have to do.  If there’s a gunfight, well there’s a gunfight…if it’s necessary to die then that’s a good way to die.” The federal authorities monitored all of Doggart’s electronic and telephone communications and eventually arrested him on April 10 just as he was planning to go to New York to conduct his own “reconnaissance” of Islamberg. The complaint lists Doggart declarations about the “reconnaissance” trip wherein he says, “I’ll probably bring my M4 with me just in case”.

Members of The Muslims of America primarily consist of African American Muslims of the Sunni sect of Islam who are indigenous Americans with Islamic roots spanning four generations. The first generations were mainly converts from various branches of Christianity. Local law enforcement and neighbors have nothing negative to say about the Islamberg community. The Public Relations Director for The Muslims of America, Matthew Gardner vehemently expressed, “Doggart is an example of the results of unchecked and rampant Islamophobia which has spread lies for years about our peaceful community. This man plotted to mercilessly kill us, kill our children, and blow up our mosque and our school. We have sound reason to believe he has already visited our other locations around the U.S. What other murderous plans do he and his private militia have and where are his accomplices? All would agree, if a Muslim did this, the perpetrator would be immediately identified as a  terrorist then prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. The examples are numerous. Therefore, we call on all branches of justice to see to it that this man is prosecuted for planning a heinous hate crime and terrorist act.”

      The doggone Robert Doggart is a miserable old fogey whose aspirations only amount to throwing tantrums at this point (albeit very violent, destructive ones) and is only given such leniency in those kangaroo courts because those who he intended to victimize were Muslims.

      “Court records show that Doggart is a graduate of LaSalle University with both masters and doctorate degrees, and is an engineer by training and trade who ran for U.S. Representative in the 2014 election.”

      This forever demonstrates that attending college is not an indicator of the quality of an individual. College, despite all of the education and skills it provides, does not necessarily make all of its successful attendees better people. Education and emotional maturity are mutually exclusive.

      This community is as dangerous as the Amish. Such haters are the nidus for corresponding groups, cultivating their worldview of overarching conflict solvable through killing the weakest (in reality just seeking an easy, but moronic, short-sighted, distorted and desastrous vent for their hate and fear), instead of facing the real-life counterpart of their stereotypes directly: flying to Syria and getting blown up by the IS, who cultivates the same patterns of thought, positions reversed.

      If you look at the Doggart pic he looks crazy.

      I hear it was an Islamberg that sank the Titanic.

      because nothing says “patriotism” more than burning down a school and gunning people down because they’re Muslims.

    • AJ

      I have met members from a similar Muslim community in Appomattox, VA through a homeschooling network. These are very nice and refined people. Quite a different lot than Doggart’s breed, an example of which is apparent from the recent episode at Waco, TX.

      Muslims decry double standards following bail of former congressional candidate who plotted attack

      http://www.arabamericannews.com/news/news/id_10487/Muslims-decry-double-standards-following-bail-of-former-congressional-candidate-who-plotted-attack.html

      -NEW YORK – Muslim organizations are voicing concerns this week after a manwho plotted to attack an Islamic community in New York State was released on bail without being charged with terrorism offenses.

      Community leaders have pointed to a double standard, not only in the legal consequences faced by Robert Doggart, a former congressional candidate from North Carolina, but also in what they say is scant media coverage of his plot to “utterly destroy” the town of Islamberg.

      Doggart, 63, was arrested by the FBI before he could carry out his plan of killing residents and firebombing a school and mosque in the small town of predominantly African-American Muslims, located 140 miles north of New York City.

      Islamberg residents along with representatives of the town’s founding organization, the Muslims of America (TMOA), decried the leniency of the charges leveled against Doggart and called for federal prosecutors to revisit the case.

      “You cannot imagine the level of disruption Mr. Doggart’s threat has caused the families of Islamberg,” said Tahirah Amatul-Wadud, general counsel for TMOA, said in a news conference Monday, local media reported.

      Intercepted phone calls and social media posts revealed that Doggart had planned to attack Islamberg on April 15 with members of a private militia.

      He also instructed his accomplices to carry AR-15 and M16 rifles to carry out the attack. “Those guys have to be killed,” he was recorded telling an FBI source in a phone call. “Their buildings need to be burnt down. If we can get in there and do that not losing a man, even the better.”

      Doggart made an unsuccessful bid for Tennessee’s 4th Congressional District seat in 2014.

      He later pleaded guilty to a charge of interstate communication of threats and faces between zero and five years in prison. He was released to home confinement after posting a $30,000 bond.

      The plea agreement is an example of a legal double standard, according to Amatul-Wadud, who has called for a meeting with Department of Justice officials.

      “Anybody who purports to be Muslim and acts inconsistently with the laws would certainly be charged with terrorism,” she said. “There should be no discrepancy in how the law is applied to Muslims versus someone who is not Muslim.”

      Ugh, this wouldn’t be the first time either. A couple years ago a former military general threatened to storm the white house with a thousand marines and they let him go willy nilly. But the NSA will be all over your ass if you so much as listen to a war nasheed.

      whaaaaat? o_O

    • cmyfe .

      My proportionate reaction (in line with the typical online jobless community) to this should be something like the statement seen below;

      “I say screen all white people walking on the streets, better yet arrest the filthy pigs and send them back where they came from.”

      But I am neither jobless nor typical.

      Well… I’m just disappointed that we still have the “Obama the secret Muslim” rumor floating around. Will no one bury it?
