Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

SC Muslim teen, Islamic State supporter, plotted to murder U.S. soldiers

Apr 22, 2015 12:16 am By Robert Spencer

Wall painted with Islamic State flagThe cognitive dissonance is enormous. We are constantly told, and the mainstream media and political elites reinforce it daily (as it is so weak it needs reinforcing), that the Islamic State has nothing to do with Islam. All the Muslim groups in the U.S. condemn it — and yet there is a steady stream of Muslims from the U.S. and the West joining it. Why so much misunderstanding of Islam? Why no programs in mosques teaching against this understanding of Islam? Why do no authorities care about that notable absence?

“US teen attracted to IS sentenced to prison on gun charge,” Associated Press, April 21, 2015:

YORK, South Carolina (AP) — A South Carolina teenager who authorities say was attracted to the Islamic State group and who was plotting to kill U.S. troops in North Carolina has been sentenced to five years in juvenile prison on a state gun charge, a prosecutor said Tuesday.

Officials told media outlets the 16-year-old is an American citizen whose family is from Syria. They didn’t release his name.

The prosecutor said the boy was plotting with a Muslim militant from North Carolina to rob a gun store near Raleigh, North Carolina, with plans of killing soldiers as revenge for U.S. military action in the Middle East.

Solicitor Kevin Brackett said that because of the teen’s age and the lack of a terrorism law in South Carolina, the only charge prosecutors could pursue was possession of a weapon by a minor.

The teen was “wholeheartedly sincere in his beliefs, and we are very concerned for the safety of the community and the country,” Brackett said. “He had a plan to randomly shoot American soldiers.”

Brackett said a videotaped police interview with the teen, which wasn’t shown in court, was disturbing. “How he behaved on that video, which is what I told the court, is what caused me so much concern,” Brackett said….

The teen’s mother and uncle also spoke to the court, saying the boy was a good youngster who believed in the laws of the U.S. and didn’t mean any harm.

Oh, well, then!

    And, some of the most intense Rhetoric “… that the Islamic State has nothing to do with Islam..”, comes from America’s own “Imperial”, very apparently “Pro Islam, Pro Muslim”, Barack Hussein Obama Jr. Administration, through HIS OWN DOCUMENTED Words, Actions, and Deeds.

      Try this traitor for treason, strip him of his citizenship, and deport him when his sentence is served. IS is our enemy and anyone who wants to join them is on a path towards treason.

        You must say exactly that in a letter to your Congressman.

        And in a letter to the State Governor of South Carolina.

      It makes one wonder why Obama himself refuses to set foot in Iraq. They’d remove his head, too.

    I am certain that Imam Joe Biden or Imam Kerry are on their way there right now to set this teenager straight. CLEARLY, this young moslem is off-message and confused about the religion he has grown up in. Him and all those tens of thousands flocking or trying to flock to the Islamic State from all over the world.

    Oh, well–this method of waging Jihad for Allah didn´t work. He could always start breeding like a rat and produce dozens of future Jihadis to do Allah´s work in the USA.
    Of course the Americans can greatly help Allah´s plan for Dar al Harb by taking in a few more million ” poor Syrian Muslim refugees”.
    Europe can´t help at the moment, ´cos we are presently too busy rescuing boat loads of ” poor Somali Muslim refugees”.

    The only thing a person can say is “Islam is a religion of peace” or “Islam has nothing to do with it” and talk about how to better recycle for a better planet.

    16 year old jihadi? well , you cant beat the Brits, they have the ‘youngest’ jihadi in the world , 14 years old.

    Anyway, as things stand, US will not be far behind, for long.

      Doubtful. The reverse is true. There is no counterjihad deprogramming going on, so he will come out a bigger and better and more dangerous jihadist.

      We need to deprogram Muslims.

      Jeff S – Are you kidding? Muslims established themselves 40 yrs ago in prisons. Jails are full of them, and they are all proselytizing. The whole “Black Muslims” thing started in prison, back in the 60s. Remember in NYC when a Harlem mosque harboring criminals (some murderer, maybe a cop killer, as I recalll – during the rise of Malcolm X) won legal decision that cops couldn’t enter to investigate what was going on inside? This 16-yr old will come out more motivated, hardened and committed than ever.. I’d give you more specifics, but I’m bizzy right now. google it.

    ”The teen’s mother and uncle also spoke to the court, saying the boy was a good youngster who believed in the laws of the U.S. and didn’t mean any harm’

    So, plotting to murder American soldiers is ”believing in the laws of the US”, and of course he ”didn’t mean any harm”. He just wanted to murder some kufr soldiers, as his religion tells him to do.

    What’s the problem, you racist islamophobes ?

    • mortimer says

      The ‘problem’ is that the Leftarded cultural Marxists need the ‘noble savages’ to destroy European civilization and the program is highly successful and must not be derailed. They’ve even co-opted Europeans through post-colonial guilt to feel sorry for the terrorists and help them!

    “the boy was a good youngster who believed in the laws of the U.S. and didn’t mean any harm”

    Right.

    The 164 jihad verses in the Koran say otherwise.

      Again, the Islamic terrorist was an unproductive parasite, living off his sister. With no job, how did this terrorist amass an arsenal of expensive weapons?

    A French Muslim foiled while planning on blowing up churches. Luckily he was one of the dumb ones, he seems to have accidently shot himself.

    http://www.google.com.au/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0CCAQFjAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.bbc.com%2Fnews%2Fworld-europe-32409253&ei=HKo3Vaa0BYaxmwX0-ID4DA&usg=AFQjCNG6jkukygpjv73NcRLFKHSM5JH54A&sig2=cyE1ubJ6Lm20zAB2R6BKHQ

    “There was no immediate evidence the suspect had links to organised groups, a French security official told AP.”

    “Terrorists are targeting France to divide us,” French Prime Minister Manuel Valls warned on Wednesday.

    Actually Manuel it is French politicians who caused the division, by allowing hostile Muslims to flood into your country.
