From Creeping Sharia:

Indiana DHS doesn’t investigate or monitor jihadi propagandists

DHS was set up precisely because of Islamic terrorists that attacked the U.S. and considering Islamic jihad has been one of the primary threats to the U.S. for the last decade, and homegrown jihadis have increased in number, wouldn’t you expect your state department of Homeland Security to monitor such activity? Not in Indiana. Feel safer?





According to the left-wing TPM website article ridiculing Fox News published-then deleted-then published again report on the grandma convert to Islam and online jihahi propagandist, Indiana DHS doesn’t bother with homegrown terror activity:



I asked Indiana Department of Homeland Security spokeswoman Emily Norcross if the investigation reported by Fox News was generated by the Fox reporter’s tip.



“Essentially,” Norcross said. “We don’t investigate things like that, we really don’t even monitor things like that. But we forwarded it to the intelligence fusion center, which is run by the Indiana state police.”



Norcross told me I should get in touch with the Indiana state police. “She sent us the video, we sent it to [the police],” Norcross added.



Norcross said she talked to Winter about the difference between what the state Department of Homeland Security office does and what the state fusion center does. Indiana’s Homeland Security Department mostly handles natural disasters responses, Norcross told me.



Tuesday’s story by Fox News quoted Norcross as saying that the video Winter forwarded to them was “being looked at and evaluated by Indiana State Police, which runs Indiana Intelligence Fusion Center.” It said Norcross added that the video would be passed along to appropriate law enforcement for further investigation.



That almost puts the Indiana state DHS on par with those running the federal DHS, who are busy hiring and sharing information with stealth jihadists rather than finding and defending Americans from violent jihadists.
