The FBI’s Joint Terrorism Task Force is monitoring a number of northern New Jersey residents with ties to Al Qaeda, according to a recently released report.
In an article appearing in The Record of Bergen County, federal counter-terrorism officials in New Jersey stated that agents have disrupted their activities and deported several.
“There are many people who are like-minded who want to commit acts of terrorism and have just not taken that extra step,” Kevin Cruise, the director of the bureau’s 100-member task force in Newark, N.J., told the Record, calling the individuals “facilitators.”
A little trivia… According to the report, every major terrorist organization in the world, except the Taliban, has contacts in northern New Jersey.
Cruise declined to describe any case in detail; however, efforts to disrupt Osama bin Laden’s network range from deportation to telling the suspects they are being watched.
Agents have no information about an imminent attack.
The task force is currently conducting more than 400 counter-terrorism investigations.
