And they weren’t interested only in recruiting Muslims to wage jihad in Iraq and Syria: “Juraboev offered to engage in act of martyrdom on U.S. soil on behalf of ISIL, such as killing the President of the United States.” “Fourth man charged in NYC over alleged ISIS recruiting plot,” Associated Press, April 7, 2015 (thanks to Pamela Geller):
NEW YORK – A fourth man was charged on Monday in a terrorism case accusing him of raising money for a plot to have U.S. residents travel overseas to fight for the Islamic State.
Dilkhayot Kasimov was named with three other previously charged defendants in a revised indictment unsealed in federal court in Brooklyn. He faces charges of conspiracy and attempting to provide material support to a terrorist organization.
Prosecutors accused Kasimov of working closely with another man, Abror Habibov, to raise $1,600 for a third, Akhror Saidakhmetov, to travel to Syria to join the Islamic State militant group, also known as ISIS or ISIL. Saidakhmetov was carrying the cash when he was intercepted at John F. Kennedy International Airport on Feb. 25 trying to board a flight to Turkey, court papers say.
After being detained on immigration charges, Kasimov admitted he delivered the money to the 19-year-old Saidakhmetov and knew that the teen “might be” traveling to Syria, court papers say. Agents also uncovered “electronic communications in which Kasimov encouraged others to participate in violent jihad,” they said.
Kasimov “served as a money man in support of a co-defendant’s efforts to join ISIL,” Diego Rodriguez, head of New York’s FBI office, said in a statement.
Kasimov is scheduled to be arraigned Wednesday in Brooklyn. The name of his attorney was not immediately available.
Last month, Saidakhmetov, Habibov and Abdurasul Hasanovich Juraboev — all immigrants from the former Soviet republics of Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan — pleaded not guilty in the same case. Prosecutors accused Juraboev of also trying to travel to Syria via Turkey to join ISIS….
“In his post, Juraboev offered to engage in act of martyrdom on U.S. soil on behalf of ISIL, such as killing the President of the United States,” the papers say….

To all my fellow Jihad Watch subscribers. I humbly and sincerely ask your opinion on this idea. I live in Brooklyn, NY. I could stand in front of the court house where these radical, extremist, creepy Islamists will appear. Since they are pleading “Not guilty” that means a trial. Should the large poster board sign read this: “The Quran instructs Muslims to kill infidels, which are non- Muslims. These jihadists are just following their religion. They want to kill President Obama and others. What happened to their freedom of religion?” Or should the sign say this: “These Islamists are obeying their Quran, which tells them to kill infidels, or non-Muslims. Islam incites violence more than any other religion. The people on trial should receive the teachings of other religions during their long jail stay.” Which would hit home harder in our current PC climate? I am interested in your thoughts. Thank you.

I think you’d need something a little punchier. People’s attention spans barely survive past five or so words nowadays.
Linde Barrera says
To Pumbar: Thank you so much. You have given me a challenge. My message must be parsed, weighty and truthful. This task requires much thought on my part.
Mirren10 says
**Definitely** do not go alone.
Why don’t you contact Pamela Geller with your ideas, or your local branch of Act for America ?
What about:
”Death to the infidels” !! This is my religion ! Support my freedom of religion !!”
Linde Barrera says
To Mirren10- Thank you for your concern and suggestions. I will make a plan, as protesting cannot be done on the spur of the moment. But you do like ‘Sudden Islamist Jihad Syndrome’ don’t you?
mezcukor says
Good idea but do nor go alone.Inspire yourself from Pamela Geller adds on the buses. Good luck.
Linde Barrera says
To mezcukor: Thank you for your reply. I saw an ad on the platform wall of the M/R subway at 36 St. Long Island City on Mon Apr 6. It was about Israel taking land from the Palestinians and building settlements. And the last line said: “Does Israel want land or peace?”
Matthieu Baudin says
The United States is a great nation where an apostate from Islam, or any other faith, can be recognised as a human being of equal value to any other person and may even rise to become President. Religious terrorists will be tracked down and put out of harms way by a nation which still recognises that human qualities and rights exist above and beyond group allegiances and religious affiliations.
Jerry says
Not any more!

immigrants from the former Soviet republics of Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan
What are they doing here, I have been to Uzbekistan,it is a backward Muslim country.We must stop exporting immigrants from these Muslim.shit holes.They bring nothing to America except problems and they are dangerous Muslim fanatics
Lioness says
What do you mean they bring nothing to America! They bring jihad. They bring crime. They bring ignorance and filth. And they take plenty too: welfare, police resources, court expenses. The solution? bring more Muslim immigrants to America, Hussein Obama.
Shane says
Yes, that is a sensible policy, but it has been a long time since our countries immigration policy made any sense. We need fewer immigrants, fewer Muslim immigrants, and we need a President who will secure our borders and enforce our nations immigration laws.
Shane says
Stop all Muslim immigration into the West, or at least stop all immigration from Muslim countries where sharia law and jihad are popular.
Uncle Vladdi says
IF ONLY a black muslim were to execute (I can’t say “murder” in this case!) Obama!

Shane great comment…..lost post.
underbed cat says
Shane I agree with your conclusion that the immigration system is broken. Actually it is working too well to bring in immigrants without careful consideration of the consequences. I flew on a plane and sat next to a Dept. of Immigration employee (he had a laptop…..) anyway we struck up a conversation….I made a comment..he acknowledged that the Dept. of Immigration does not enforce the laws.This was about 1983….today it is even worse….the caliphate is no joke and it is speeding ahead. Back then terrorism was just starting to show, I had not heard of the MB yet but they were already using the system influencing (not this guy) but agencies appearing harmless, educated and pious. there are about 150 computer screen pages listing mosques in this country. Very hidden from view although sometimes very large. I often wonder if many people are aware of this fact alone…
