FTA: While Wright's Trinity United Church is not accused of any criminal action, it thrives in an environment that has forged some of the most extreme black supremacist groups with religious coloration ever seen in the US. Black Chicago has incubated a number of black supremacist "cults," which grew rapidly among poor, illiterate black migrants who left the Deep South for war work in the First World War. Among these sects was the Moorish Science Temple of America, whose dynamic "prophet," the Noble Drew Ali (AKA Timothy Drew), taught blacks that they are the descendants of the Moors and penned the "Circle Seven Koran," developing a religion more in common with the Shriners (down to the MSTA's red fezzes) than with historical Islam. Ali's death spawned a whole set of rival Chicagoland groups, among them the Nation of Islam, the Black Muslims best known for Malcolm X, and less well known for the Zebra Killings, a West Coast campaign of serial murder which targeted "white devils" for rape and gruesome death. (Another NoI splinter was the Nation of Yahweh, positing blacks as the "real Jews" instead of the Moors, which carried out a similar slaughter campaign against whites in Florida). The Moorish Science Temple also gave the world the El Rukn tribe, a ferocious gang of drug dealers, rapists and killers also known as the Almighty Black P. Stone Nation and founded by Jeff Fort, absurdly AKA Abdullah Malik and Imam Abdul Malik Ka'bah. The El Rukns formed a huge gang alliance called the People Nation, with allies in Third World criminal enterprises like the Hispanic Latin Kings nationwide. Accused of corrupting Chicago police, the El Rukns were used as muscle by Chicago luminary Jesse Jackson in his shakedowns of white businesses and other affirmative action projects, with "gangstas" wielding signs reading "Don't get messy with Jesse." Jesse Jackson's half brother Noah Robinson allegedly served as a liasion for the El Rukns with both legitimate businesses and drug dealers. Robinson eventually faced charges of hiring El Rukn enforcers to kill a witness and a former business partner.

The El Rukns also received major US grant financing for various initiatives, and allegedly served federal Cointelpro interests by driving the Black Panthers off the Chicago streets. Such was Fort's status that he was invited to Richard Nixon's inaugural, but snubbed Tricky Dick, dispatching two henchmen in his place. El Rukn taste for "public/private partnerships" were their eventual downfall. According to the US government, El Rukn "emir" Jeff Fort made a pact with Libyan strongman Colonel Muammar Gaddafi to carry out acts of domestic terrorism against Gaddafi's chosen US targets. Another Chicago based black Muslim was stymied in his attempt to gain Libyan largesse; the feds denied the request of Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan to receive $1 billion from Gaddafi's oil coffers, albeit for missionary, not terrorist, work. Convicted in 1987, Jeff Fort is well into his 80-year sentence at the federal supermax prison in Florence, Colorado.

A more recent incarnation of Noble Drew Ali's Moorish dream is the Seas of David, a Miami group lured into a bogus al Qaeda plot to attack various US landmarks. The plot was concocted by the federal government to give the appearance of "fighting terrorism," but was so patently phony that the case collapsed. Perhaps as a nod to the Mecca of Moorish Science the feds had the Seas of David agree to attack Chicago's Sears Tower.

Again, neither Obama nor his church are accused of illegal actions, though the Clinton campaign, which sacrificed a staffer after getting caught, has "suggested" Obama may, like many denizens of South Side Chicago, have sold dope. The white soccer moms who may vote for Obama because they feel guilty about being white would be surprised at the milieu which helps form people like him.
