Ugh, not good timing for diplomatic stuff up here in Portland.
I have been building a playground at an Islamic school and noticed what looks to me like a lot of gang stalking activity. People cruising by kind of skulking around but not getting confrontational. The guys working with me say "Christian nut jobs", figuring unaffiliated individuals. The people running the Muslim center are being really picky about which refugee families get brought in and taken care of but you never know if some cousin or nephew got dragged along while not really being with the peace and tolerance program. The diplomatic way they want to handle that is if someone wants to be jihadi about things, they get a plane ticket out of the country like Pronto.
The issue is that can't be done with the Black Americans so the black part of their congregation has the most undercover operatives working it and they all seem to have an idea who I am and keep a distance. Then there are some militant black Americans who make an arrival from time to time but the East Africans don't want to upset their gravy train of benefits so they shut down militant stuff as quick as they can.
What happens though is someone can spin off and self radicalize on their own, make contact with extremists on the net and the rest ends up in the news. The issue among them however is that unless they are really capable of acting lone wolf (easier said than done), the FBI will get close to them then manage to set them up, usually with a fake bomb.
