Look Out, North Carolina

You couldn’t make this up in a million years. As part of his one-man effort to combat the looming Islamo-imperial threat from the likes of the Muslim Brotherhood, Dave Gaubatz, author of Muslim Mafia, is planning a one-month “investigative counterterrorism project in the Sunni mosques of North Carolina,” as our Justin Elliott aptly puts it.

To fund the project, Gaubatz is soliciting private donations, including two motorcycles and a “Class A” RV. As a bonus, the most generous donor to the project gets to tag along as the team tootles around North Carolina investigating Muslims.

The motorcycles, Gaubatz explains to us, are for investigative work in the bigger cities where the RV might be unwieldy. Makes perfect sense.
