Iran is extending its murderous tentacles, training up a new generation of jihadists right here on American soil. Here are just three of the many mosques that need immediate investigation:

ISLAMIC HOUSE OF WISDOM/Dearborn Heights, Michigan ...

Mohamed Ali Elahi, the imam leading this mosque, was head of “political ideology” for Iran’s navy in the 1980s. Reportedly appointed to that post by Ayatollah Khomeini, his job was to instill hate for the U.S., and to purge pro-American sentiment from the Navy.

Elahi has deep ties to senior Iranian leadership. He knows three former Iranian presidents and praised a Hezbollah spiritual adviser who endorsed suicide bombings. Now he’s leading a mosque in Michigan!

ISLAMIC EDUCATION CENTER/Potomac, Maryland ...

This mosque’s original funding was secured by a man “acknowledged by all as the most prominent supporter in this country of Khomeini,” according to a 1980 Washington Post article.

The funding itself came from the Alavi Foundation, an alleged Iranian front group controlled by Iran’s Supreme Leader. The investigations chief for Manhattan’s district attorney left little doubt: “We found evidence that the government of Iran really controlled everything about the foundation.”

MANASSAS MOSQUE/Manassas, Virginia ...

A recent picture shows children at the mosque on a stage with a shrine honoring the Islamic Republic of Iran’s founder, Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini.

This mosque, like its counterpart in Maryland, has taken funding from the Iran-tied Alavi Foundation — some 200,000 dollars, according to a report from Focus on Western Islamism. An exhibition at the mosque honored fighters from Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps — a U.S.-designated terrorist organization — and featured a life-sized cutout of Khomeini.

This is a clear and present danger, but Team Biden isn’t paying attention.
