Accused North Carolina jihadist Daniel "Saifullah" Boyd loved jihad, he said, and he believed that jihad meant murder: "They also found a fatwa, or religious edict, in Boyd's house saying Muslims have 'an individual duty to kill Americans and their allies.'"
Why is this man smiling?
"Carolina Jihad Suspect Talked of Domestic Attacks," from IPT News, August 4:
RALEIGH, N.C. – A North Carolina man accused of conspiring to commit terrorist acts abroad grew so frustrated at his inability to carry out his plans that he vented about committing attacks in America, an FBI agent testified Tuesday.Agent Michael Sutton testified during a detention hearing for Daniel Patrick Boyd, Boyd's sons Zakariya and Dylan, and co-defendants Hysen Sherifi, Ziyad Yaghi, Anes Subasic and Mohammad Omar Aly Hassan. The men were arrested last week and charged in a conspiracy to commit terrorist acts abroad. If convicted, each could be sentenced to life in prison.
According to the indictment, Boyd and his son Zakariya, along with Yaghi and Hassan, traveled to Israel in June 2007. The men wanted to die as shahid "that is, as martyrs in furtherance of violent jihad," the indictment alleges. But they came back about a month later, unsuccessful in their attempt to carry out jihad.
A year earlier, the indictment alleges, Boyd tried to get into Gaza "in order to introduce his son to individuals who also believed that violent jihad was a personal obligation on the part of every good Muslim."
During his testimony, Sutton cited comments Boyd made that were recorded by the government or reported by witnesses.
"If I don't leave this country soon," Sutton quoted Boyd saying in one, "I am going to make jihad right here in America."
In another conversation outside a convenience store, Boyd noticed a group of Humvees.
"We should take them out right now," Boyd said. He made a similar comment about a North Carolina state helicopter he saw flying over head, Sutton said a witness told him.
The indictment makes no allegations about any domestic terrorist plot by the defendants. They did buy large amounts of rifles and ammunition and conducted training on private property in Caswell County, N.C. this past June and July.
They also found a fatwa, or religious edict, in Boyd's house saying Muslims have "an individual duty to kill Americans and their allies."
Boyd often made references to jihad, in one recording saying "Allah knows I love jihad."...
Restoring, from my own copy, the comments originally made to this article - dda. Apologies to anyone whose comment I may not have preserved.
SNICKY said - Why is this man smiling?
Because Western Liberals are idiots. Had he being a Christian/Jew in the muslim majority country and wanted to kill muslims, he wouldn't have survived for an hour.
For this reason, I decided not to watch any Western Cable/TV/Satelite News, because I am sick of political correctness + ignorance in the bloody islam.

Interesting. So even though they hate America there were no plans on committing jihad here? I wonder why not. Perhaps it would be easier to be a terrorist abroad? I admit I'm confused. What kind of jihadist is he besides a stupid one? This whole story makes no sense. I await more information
-YANKEL said - I'm sure there was a plan to commit violence in the USA.
The F.B.I. made awfully sure that they apprehended everyone outside the confines of the Boyd home. I'm sure they expected it to be wired with explosives -- as these cretins would have preferred to be "martyred." And what was that stockpile of weapons for?
-EBONYSTONE added - (quoting) "And what was that stockpile of weapons for? "
And quite a stockpile it was, too. The Washington Times reports today (Aug.5) that it amounted to 26 weapons, and over 27,000 (!) rounds of ammunition. I'll bet it wasn't for hunting ducks.
SALEEM said - Big Danny Jihad, Daniel "Saifullah" Boyd, is a perfect example of a "fully devout" Muslim following the Islamic prophet.
Muhammad said and did:
Bukhari: volume.5, book.59, number.377:
Narrated Jabir bin 'Abdullah:
On the day of the battle of Uhud, a man came to the Prophet and said:, "Can you tell me where I will be if I should get Martyred?" The Prophet replied, "In Paradise." The man threw away some dates he was carrying in his hand, and fought till he was Martyred.
Kinda speaks for itself don't it? Any more passengers wanting to get on the 'peace train' (thxs Cat Stevie) of the religion of violence?
Muhammad himself was an extremely sick, mass murdering con man thief.
It is only logical that he would "regularly" inspire such madness and violence in his followers.
Those sane, decent Muslims that have been duped by "Muhammads fraud" must snap out of it and be honest with themselves or we are all in for one rough ride.
To be a Muslim in the 21st century is the ultimate self betrayal. There are no more excuses. The truth has become known. Islam is the most harmful fraud in existence.
ALASKANINFIDEL said - islam...mind poison...soul poison. His threats are the symptoms.
EPISTEMOLOGY said - What do you expect from a convert to Islam? That he wants to make the world a better place by preaching peace and harmony, love for all mankind? Terrorism is only the natural consequence of his conversion. That's the way life goes.
Sentence him to life in the clink, solitary confinement, of course, and give him pork every day.
IPSOFACTO said (quoting) - "If I don't leave this country soon, I am going to make jihad right here in America"
Can´t have that, but a man´s got to do what a man got to do. It´s as American as apple pie.
One must follow the dictates of conscience, whatever the consequences. One must do whatever is necessary to achieve the desired result. One has no choice in the matter.
Then why not do it at home, if you want to be a good American Muslim?
Sounds to me like a case of split personality often associated with Muslims cought between the moral demands of two incompatible cultures.
Or he is just trying to minimize the consequences using traditional taqyyia so he may live to fight another day. Who knows?
DOGWITHOUTSLIPPERS said - Could it be Boyd is working on his "Legend"..................his muslim resume? Fact he escaped amputation of a foot and a hand when he was a crazy bankrobbing wannabee muslim kid in Pakistan twenty years ago is puzzling. Or is he simply another muslim convert without a real brain. If so - deport him back to Pakistan - he can give them a hand..
-ISABELLATHECRUSADER said - Yeah, I thought that was weird too. If Allah says so, doesn't Allah say so? I mean, how did he get out of that punishment if Allah said it had to be done?
Maybe Islam is selective about how it meets out punishments. Maybe it is merely a club where the strongest prey upon the weakest. Maybe everything the Muslims here tell us about it is a big fat lie.
JETCAL said - In another day or age, this man would have been a brigand, mercenary or an anarchist. Not to say that all American recruits to Islam are sociopaths or criminals, but as a percentage you have to wonder.
DUHSWAMI said - Boyd is an outright paranoid psychotic...He has a desire to kill...He uses Allah as his front man and shield...he is very dangerous. He is convincing enough to attract a few followers...they are very dangerous...They are all very good and pious Mahoundians. Salafists, emulating the actions of the perfect man and role model Mahound. Especially Mahound's torturous and murderous actions.
When found guilty and incarcerated Boyd will need special handling, as he will most likely present a danger to guards and other convicts...
SHIVA said - Replying to Isabella
'I mean, how did he get out of that punishment if Allah said it had to be done? '
He most probably sqealiing like a pig and the US Embassy saved his putrid arse.
-SORROW said - (quoting) 'Relatives and supporters of the defendants packed the courtroom, prompting officials to turn away as many as 100 people.
The hearing also drew a representative of the Muslim American Society (MAS).
Khalilah Sabra minimized the serious allegations in the case as 'an illusion. Either the defendants have created an illusion, or the agents have created an illusion, but the reality has yet to be seen."'
I guess the past history of Mr. Boyd is an illusion?
I am actually surprised that MAS is sticking its nose into this case, since it will only make MAS look all the more radical.
It would be like the Democratic Party supporting John Wayne Gacy or the Unibomber after their arrests.
SHIVA told SORROW - Replying to Sorrow01
Muslim American Society (MAS). Khalilah Sabra minimized the serious allegations in the case as 'an illusion.
Well MAS are only part of the islam is peace illusion
BIGGERSHOVEL said - 'And he can make his jihad in the splendor of his solitary cell at the NC state penitentiary.'
