Iranian military units are looking to bolster Islamic extremism in the U.S. by turning local mosques into "terror command centers," reports a senior fellow at EMPact America and former CIA operative, who goes by the alias Reza Kahlili.
Kahlili reports how the plan is being rolled out by Iran's Revolutionary Guards and its unit of Quds Forces, which are responsible for managing Iranian-backed terror networks around the world:

Using a pseudonym to protect his identity, he wrote the 2010 book A Time to Betray, which is used by the Joint Counterintelligence Training Academy in Maryland, where he is also an instructor.
His report today, informed by an ex-intelligence officer who defected to a country in Europe, reveals mosques around the world bearing the holy name Imam Ali are "under the operation of the Guards’ intelligence office":
