Illinois: Muslim soldier arrested for jihad plot on military base for Islamic State

Mar 26, 2015 12:49 pm By Robert Spencer

OIFBut remember: if you think there should be any scrutiny at all of Muslims in the U.S. military, you’re a greasy Islamophobe.

“Two U.S. men arrested in plot to attack Illinois military base: Justice Dept,” Reuters, March 26, 2015:

WASHINGTON (Reuters) – A U.S. Army National Guard soldier and his cousin have been arrested on charges of conspiring to support Islamic State, the Department of Justice said on Thursday.

The two Chicago area men spoke of using army uniforms, military knowledge and access to attack an Illinois military installation, the department said in a statement.

    It can’t be true they are being anti muslim and racist. If it is true nothing should happen to them as the POTUS will say that we need to talk to them and explain they are wrong. Give them a reward and send them off to Dearborn Michigan.

    Illinois: Muslim soldier arrested for jihad plot on military base for Islamic State
    ………………………

    This could have been another Ft. Hood. How many other pious soldiers in Western militaries are plotting just the same?

    Let’s see… what have Americans invented that gratifies Muslims every day?

    – The airplane (so Muslims could murder us en masse);
    – The wireless radio (so Muslims can broadcast their filth);
    – Wireless communication (so Muslims can eventually use cell phones for jihad)
    – The Internet (so Muslims can recruit all the murderers they want);
    – The moving picture (so Muslims can jack off to pornography);
    – The gasoline-powered automobile (so Muslims can plow into civilians);
    – The electric car (so Muslims can travel without gas);
    – The X-Ray machine (that helps Muslims diagnose their diseases);
    – The electric furnace (so Muslims can heat their homes);
    – The tungsten-filament lamp bulb (so Muslims can build murderous devices at night);
    – The steam turbine (so Muslims can generate electricity);
    – The pneumatic tire (so Muslims can travel in comfort instead of camel-back);
    And so many, many more, right?
    Of course this list doesn’t take all the Israeli innovations and inventions in science, technology, and medicine… which muslim retards use every day.

      “what have Americans invented that gratifies Muslims every day?”

      Errr,a lot of those were invented by non-Americans.

    You go, Brigitte!
    Former film star Brigitte Bardot, France’s iconic blonde bombshell and “sex kitten” who reigned supreme from 1952–1973, has been on trial five times for insulting Muslims and “inciting racial hatred.”
    And now the prosecutor wants to fine her $24,000! See story at:

    I don’t think the French have our First Amendment right to free speech; thus, French people its people are gagged by their laws, esp. celebrities due to their public influence.

    Are any Muslims in the US military reliable? How can military police or psychiatrists verify that military Muslim is loyal to the US, rather than ISIS?

    Lie-detector testing? Truth serum? Hypnosis?

      How could any soldier in the field of battle trust such a person or people to have his back? It severely undermines the safety of our fighting forces and their missions.

      Dear Mort — maybe casually mentioning their muslim families, in a veiled threat to help them come clean… Muslims are masters of the veiled threat themselves, so what the hell, throw it back in their faces, no?
      As well, we should take the lead from the Mossad, and how it achieves spectacular results to save Israel, 365 days a year. Let’s see if Netanyahu agrees to play ball with the creep in our White House and divulge the secrets of their success.

    There is no mention ANYWHERE in this article, NOT in the title, NOT anywhere, that they are actually… MUSLIMS. It mentions they are US citizens, but not Muslims.
    Could those 2 US citizens have been: atheists, Hindus, Bhudists, Mormons, Catholics? Maybe.

      Rest assured, their motives were fully in line with their Islamic fundamentals:

      http://chicago.suntimes.com/news-chicago/7/71/472333/national-guardsman-cousin-arrested-terror-plot

      In fact, one brother was headed on a flight to the Caliphate when the arrests were made!

      SOUNDS PRETTY CLEAR TO ME.

        NOPE, IT ISN’T PRETTY CLEAR, Edgar!

    There is no such a thing as a loyal Moslem American. There is also no such thing as a loyal American
    Jehovah’s Witness either. However, Jehovah’s Witnesses will not serve in the military ever. In the case of Jehovah’s Witnesses they are being honest about their loyalty to Jehovah coming before their loyalty to America. The problem of Moslems being in the military is not with the Moslems, it is with the military.
    Religion trumps nationalism, religious people place their loyalty to their religion before their nation. Anyone can salute the American flag and not mean it, except Jehovah’s Witnesses, they will not salute the flag. Moslems are traitors to America, they can never be anything else.

    A friendly advise to DOD: do not accept Muslims to the military ’cause they will turn against you at the first opportunity, stupid.

  12. Veritas says

    Can they do the same for the Commander in Chief and the CIA director conspiring to support the Islamic State?

  13. FredvanH says

    Mar 28, 2015 at 1:34 pm

    Every sensible soldier should turn on any muslim serving, and, while keeping a very close eye on him, totally and irrevocably ostracize him.
