According to reports, Dzhokhar Tsarnaev attended the Islamic Society of Boston mosque in Cambridge, MA. The Islamic Society of Boston’s website states the mosque’s sister organization is the Islamic Society of Boston Cultural Center. They are both subordinate to the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA), a known US Muslim Brotherhood associate and an unindicted co-conspirator in the Holy Land Foundation Trial.
The Imam of Islamic Society of Boston Cultural Center is Imam Suhaib Webb. Imam Webb was notified by Massachusetts Governor Deval Patrick that he would not be involved in the Boston Marathon Memorial Service. He was subsequently replaced by Imam Nasser Wedaddy. Wedaddy is the director of civil rights outreach for the American Islamic Society and the New England Interfaith Council.
Imam Suhaib Webb tweeted out on Thursday
Sorry, Muhammad Wedaddy from the American Islamic Congress will represent Boston Muslims.
