Yet another misunderstander of Islam somehow gets the crazy idea that the completely un-Islamic entity known as the Islamic State was something that merited his support. No doubt John Kerry and David Cameron and Boris Johnson are on their way to West New York right now, so as to explain to Alaa Saadeh that his religion is one of peace.
“Another suspected ISIS sympathizer arrested in New Jersey,” WABC, June 29, 2015:
NEW JERSEY (WABC) — A Hudson County man was arrested at his home Monday morning for allegedly conspiring to provide material support to ISIS, U.S.
Alaa Saadeh, 23, of West New York, is charged by complaint with conspiring with other individuals in New Jersey and New York to provide services and personnel to ISIS, aiding and abetting an attempt to provide services and personnel to ISIL, and attempting to persuade a witness to lie to the FBI.
His lawyer says the American-born suspect had a decent work history and no criminal record.
According to documents filed in the case, the FBI and the Joint Terrorism Task Force (JTTF) have been investigating a group of individuals from New York and New Jersey who have allegedly conspired to provide material support to ISIS.
Conspirator 1 (CC-1) lived in Rutherford until leaving the country on May 5, 2015, allegedly to join ISIS.
Conspirator 2 (CC-2) is a Queens resident until he was arrested in New York on June 13, 2015, on terrorism charges.
Samuel Rahamin Topaz was a Fort Lee resident until he was arrested in New Jersey on June 17, 2015, and charged with conspiring to provide services and personnel to ISIS.
Authorities say when CC-1 attempted to travel to the Middle East via John F. Kennedy International Airport, allegedly in order to join ISIS, he was accompanied by Saadeh and CC-2. On the way to the airport, CC-1 allegedly stated that he, Saadeh, CC-2, and Topaz had plans to reunite overseas within a few weeks.
After CC-1’s departure, and despite learning from CC-1’s family that he had been arrested in Jordan on suspicion of supporting ISIS, Saadeh, CC-2, and Topaz allegedly continued to discuss their plan to travel overseas to join ISIS.
Electronic communications later recovered from Topaz’s phone corroborated their plans. On May 21, 2015, prosecutors say Saadeh and Topaz discussed the need to “lay low” and refrain from taking action in furtherance of the conspiracy to provide material support to ISIS that might be detected by law enforcement.
Saadeh and Topaz also allegedly discussed needing to meet in person to discuss “hijra,” which Topaz later told members of the JTTF that referred to traveling overseas to join ISIL. The next day, Saadeh allegedly told another individual that he suspected that CC-2 or Topaz had “snitched” on CC-1 and caused his arrest overseas, and, if that was true, Saadeh thought he would have to “kill someone.”
In recorded conversations with an informant, Saadeh revealed his support for ISIS, including its use of beheadings and mass killings to impose its violent agenda. He said he planned to travel overseas with CC-2 at some point. Saadeh allegedly said he knew CC-1 planned to travel to join ISIS before CC-1 departed the United States, and that he bought CC-1’s airline ticket despite knowing this.
The investigation also revealed that Saadeh provided CC-1 transportation and removed a SIM card from CC-1’s phone in an apparent effort to hide incriminating communications and other data.
In June, after becoming aware that he was under FBI surveillance, Saadeh allegedly directed an individual in New Jersey not to tell the FBI about CC-1’s support for ISIS or CC-1’s plans to travel to Syria and Iraq to join ISIS. Saadeh instructed the individual to “play dumb” and be “honest up to a point,” but to be sure not to tell the FBI anything about ISIS.
With Saadeh’s arrest, the FBI believes it has rounded up the entire group of local young men who had taken up ISIS’ call to join their fight….

They come out one by one as Mo/allah calls!!

I wonder if it would do any good at all for Robert to send his book, The Truth About Muhammad, to the, three (dhimmi) stooges?
Shane says
Obama was raised in a Muslim country and he studied the Koran, so he knows that Islam is a religion of jihad. Obama is trying to hurt America by bringing in more of the enemy, and by not acting to destroy ISIS.
Red Bee says
They can get a maximum of twenty years waging jihad in prison spreading the word of Allah. My website (click my name) is designed to enable visitors to take a closer look at the Koran and draw their own conclusions before reading mine. The Koran is not just another religious book as many people probably assume, like I did. If you think it is, spend 10 minutes and you may get a surprise.
Jihadists are treated like ordinary criminals and mingle with a non-Muslim jail population where they can recruit more jihadists. They will be free again when they are still a young [men] capable of violence. When the link of the crime with the war doctrine of Islam can be proven we should put them in POW camps. That would solve both problems.
As for the locations; maybe Canada is willing to rent us some patches of land (up north).
Greetings from the Netherlands.
Celtic says
Nothing to do with Islam. Carry on.
Dan says
When are these people going to be charged and treated exactly like the Rosenbergs?
Ayatrollah says
I read this sort of fast, but was there any attempt to find out where they learned this deviant form of Islam. Is this something we can stop?

Let’s get this over with, one way or the other.
Yet another misunderstander of Islam…
I’ve been reading about these misunderstanders for years now, and frankly I am sick and tired of it. There is a solution to all this confusion, it might require an unpleasant process, but it’s got to be done:
1) Publish an objective fact-based analysis of whether they are misunderstanders and, if they are, in what exact way are they so.
2) Publish a series of tracings from the results of this misunderstanding (murders, mass murders, decapitations, death threats, lawsuits demanding special prerogatives, etc.) with full traceability from the scriptures through related teachings by the Ulema all the down to the misunderstanding act.
3) Publish an analysis of hate crimes and whether they are legal per the Constitution’s requirement that there be equality before the law, regardless of what the criminal was thinking or feeling.
4) If it is found that hate crimes are legal laws, introduce and pass legislation outlawing possession of the Holy Ko-Ran and Hah-Deaths by making it a felony crime to be punished by not less than five years in a federal prison.
Let’s be done with this mess. Islam is either a good thing that results in misunderstanders, or Islam is a bad thing. Either the Holy Islam must go, or its misunderstanders must sent to the Federal Pokey as punishment… no Holy Ko-Rans allowed in the Big House, of course.
mortimer says
Alaa Saadeh knows something that David Cameron and Boris Johnson don’t know: Saadeh understands Islam because he has read the source texts of Islam.
The slogan ‘NOTHING TO DO WITH ISLAM’ is soon going to be a laughingstock…just as ‘Religion of Peace’ is a laughingstock.
I notice that David Cameron continues to use ROP, but if enough people write to him, he’ll stop.
What actually needs to be done is to realize that jihad is inseparable from Islam. This reality is what should be addressed.
When Muslims see that jihad is the problem with Islam, they will have to make the choice of leaving Islam. We should present them with this reality, rather than believing in the ‘UNICORN’ of a ‘good’ version of Islam.

“His lawyer says the American-born suspect had a decent work history and no criminal record.”
People at work probably thought he was a “moderate.” But, you can’t be what doesn’t exist.
Angemon says
American-born, eh? He probably has another nationality, so there’s a way to get rid of him.
Carlos Danger says
Poor CC-1. I can not imagine that it’s much fun to be in a Jordanian hoosgow run by King Abdullah’s merry men after the barbecue featuring that Jordanian pilot a few months back. then again, maybe all is forgiven in the passage of time.

Well, this was supposed to be as a reply to Justus’ 7:40 am post, which is seemingly gone.

ROFLMAO! Admittedly, you caught me off guard, as your posts are so educational, insightful, articulate, and accurate! You have a superb way with words . . . and, now, I see that extends to pictures as well! I have learned a lot from your posts. Thank you.

Angemon, my apologies . . . I failed to address you in my 7:17 p.m. reply of July 1, 2015. As time goes on, I will get better. But just for the record, I say again:
