Illinois mall would-be bomber wanted to commit acts of violent jihad

Uh oh. It looks as if Derrick Shareef is another misunderstander of Islam. Ibrahim Hooper, get on the phone to this lad, and explain to him how Islam is peace.

"Man charged in Illinois mall plot," from AP, with thanks to Jeff:

...Derrick Shareef, 22, of Rockford, was arrested when he met with an undercover agent in a parking lot to trade a set of stereo speakers for four hand grenades and a handgun.

Federal officials said he planned to set off four hand grenades in garbage cans at the CherryVale shopping mall in Rockford, about 90 miles northwest of Chicago.

He was charged with one count of attempting to damage or destroy a building by fire or explosion and one count of attempting to use a weapon of mass destruction.

Federal officials said that in September Shareef became acquainted with an FBI cooperating witness and confided to him that he wanted to commit acts of "violent jihad" as well as other crimes.

The guy sounds like a Black convert to Islam. Picked up the religion of peace in the pen, no doubt.

The good news is a "co-operating witness" helped to spike the plot (probably another Methodist) but the bad news is these sub-humans will be popping up randomly, or not so randomly, all over the U.S. Just another object lesson to be ignored by the ignorant.

"These things have I spoken unto you, that ye should not be offended....yea, the time cometh, that whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth God service.

And these things will they do unto you, because they have not known the Father, nor me."

John 16:1-3

Islam had nothing to do with this as well. Right?

Is he of the Nation of Islam? If so, he must have been one of Dr. Yakub's experiments gone wrong.
