Secure Freedom Minute: Memo to Gov. Abbott – Declare a Moratorium on Mosque Construction in Texas

On March 3rd, roughly two million Texans approved a ballot proposition declaring, “Texas should prohibit sharia law.” A powerful impetus behind that vote was the prospect of the East Plano Islamic Center building a sharia-adherent “city” in North Texas.

Three weeks later, a retired police lieutenant named Douglas Deaton warned local authorities that elements of that city have been in place for as long as 12 years. He described its first “house” as a “fortress and command post” with apparent surveillance and firing positions overlooking a police facility.

Since Mohammed’s time, mosques have been used to store weapons and train and plot for their use in jihad.  Gov. Greg Abbott – who has promised to block EPIC City – should immediately declare a moratorium on further construction of such forward operating bases pending an investigation of the threat they pose to their communities and state.   

This is Frank Gaffney.
