Exclusive: ‘Muslims-Only’ Enclave Thrives In Philadelphia

Paul Williams, PhD

Thanks to U.S. taxpayers, an Islamic enclave is being carved out of the heart of
the City of Brotherly Love. And how generous have you been with your tax dollar
s? You just gave $1.6 billion for the privilege of turning over all this cash to
the Islamic community.
The person doing the carving is Kenny Gamble, the author of such hit songs as “L
ove Train” and “Me and Mrs. Jones.”
So far Americans have shelled out $1.6 billion in federal grants, loans, and “ch
aritable” gifts to create an alleged “Muslims-only” community.
A convert to Islam, Gamble, now known as Luqman Abdul Haqq, is affiliated with t
he National Ummah Movement which seeks to establish sovereign Islamic enclaves r
uled by shariah (Islamic) law within major cities throughout the U.S.A. The move
ment was started by Jamil al-Amin (the former H. Rap Brown), who is now serving
a life sentence at a maximum security prison for killing two police officers in
Atlanta.
Gamble managed to collect the $1.6 billion through Universal Company, a so-calle
d “charitable organization,” which he formed in 1993. Gamble and his spokesmen s
ay that the non-profit company provides a public service by cleaning up a blight
ed section of the south Philly, but local residents say that Universal has reall
y used the $1.6 billion to create a Muslim ghetto. This allegation is supported
by Gamble himself. Speaking to his fellow Islamists, the former songwriter quipp
ed: “We are not here for Universal, we are here for Islam.”
The proof is in the pudding. The 800 block of South 15th Street now contains the
United Muslim Masjid, an Islamic center, and a madrassah (charter school). All
of these organizations have been created and sustained by Gamble’s enterprise. R
otan Lee of the Philly YMCA says: “You look up and down the street and see men,
women and children in traditional Muslim dress everywhere; you see the masjid ri
ght across from Kenny s house and security guards on the corners in kufis.”
On the website of the Muslim Alliance of National American, the directors of Ga
mble’s company made the mistake of betraying their true intent by saying: “By th
e Blessing and Mercy of Allah (SWT), the efforts of Universal Companies serve as
a national model for what can be done with commitment, compassion, focus and ca
reful planning and execution. Just another proof positive of the words of the Qu
’ran where Allah (SWT) states: ‘Let there arise from among you a small group of
people, inviting to all that is good. They enjoin the good, and forbid the evil,
and it is they who attain success.’ (3: 104).”
Proof of Gamble’s ties to National Ummah Movement was provided by a conference c
all from Jamil al Amin to the United Muslim Masjid., a mosque G founded on 15th
Street. A transcript from the mosque reads as follows: "...A highlight of one me
eting was when we had Imam Jamil Al-Amin on speaker phone talking to us from his
Georgia prison. MANA (Muslim Alliance in North America ) and its members have r
aised and donated several thousands of dollars to his family and legal defense t
eam. Imam Jamil has recently been transferred to a "supermax" prison in Colorado
, and we ask that you make du a for him." [source]
Further proof of the Ummah connection comes from Gamble’s role in the creation o
f theMANA, an organization formed to free Jamil al-Amin from federal prison and
to advance the Islamic take-over of the United States by “cultural jihad” - - pu
shing for black/Muslim privileges under the guise of equal opportunity and civil
rights.
Some of the Ummah mosques maintain armed militias. Others provide training in ma
rtial arts and guerilla warfare. Almost all operate beneath the radar of local,
state, and federal law enforcement officials.
On October 28, 2009, the FBI raided a warehouse and two houses in Detroit and ar
rested eleven Ummah members on charges of mail fraud, the illegal possession of
firearms, trafficking in stolen goods, and altering vehicle identification numbe
rs. In the course of the raid on the warehouse, Luqman Ameen Abdullah, the ringl
eader of the group, opened fire on the federal agents and was killed in the ensu
ing gunfight.
Luqman Abdullah was the imam of the Masjid al-Haqq in Detroit, a mosque that was
part of the Ummah network. He sought to claim a section of blight-ravaged Detro
it for his group in order to establish a sovereign Muslim enclave governed by sh
aria (Islamic law). In his sermons, Imam Abdullah called upon his followers to l
aunch an “offensive jihad” against U.S. officials and to carry and use firearms.
Imam Abdullah, along with Kenny Gamble, was a founder of MANA. Another founder w
as Siraj Wahaj, an un-indicted co-conspirator in the 1993 bombing of the World T
rade Center and imam of Masjid al-Taqwa in Brooklyn.
So…how did Gamble squeeze $1.6 billion out of Uncle Sam?
Stay tuned.

Please check England out, and, especially London, which already have Sharia sect
ions with Islamic rule, and NO BRITISH LAW ENFORCMENT in those sections.

The thing that I notice in muslim only areas in Europe, the Philippines, and els
ewhere around this world is that it is dangerous for non-muslims to enter - even
the police. AND!! That they DEMAND peaceful passage in our areas and will claim
that they are victims after their violent Jihadists do damage/killing/terror in
our areas.
