Mohammad Tawhidi, a prominent Islamic reformer Imam, stated that he had repeatedly warned New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio about impending terror hotbeds and incoming attacks but has been continuously ignored.
“About [NYC] terrorist attack, I personally sent letters to Mayor De Blasio online & in person about terrorist breeding in NYC. He did nothing,” wrote the reformist after the New York City terror attack on Tuesday evening.

As reported by Amanda Prestigiacomo for The Daily Wire:
Suspected radical Islamic terrorist Sayfullo Habibullaevic Saipov drove a rental truck down a bike-path in Manhattan before crashing and fleeing the vehicle. Saipov, who arrived in the United States seven years ago under the “Diversity Visa Program,” killed eight innocents and injured a dozen others.
“I sent him an alarming letter through his website, office, and my employee approached them in person! De Blasio is part of the problem!” he wrote.
“De Blasio knows there are extremist organizations in NY. Can he deny? He can not deny. So what has he done so far!? Nothing!” added the Imam.
Captioning de Blasio’s presser following the attack, Imam Tawhidi wrote: “Now you classify it as an act of terror!? There are terrorist breeding centres in NYC. I wrote to you last year, but you did nothing. Sad.”
The counter-terrorism expert who dubs himself “The Imam of Peace” continued to blast the NYC mayor and the Left’s propensity to deny the reality that Islamic extremism exists.
In 2016, I told Mayor De Blasio that I was in NYC and noticed some hot radical centres. I was willing to point out serious cases. Ignored!

Fact: In the last two years, De Blasio spent all his energy and resources in trying to bring down President Trump and not Islamic Extremists
