Alexander Ciccolo is apparently yet another convert to Islam who got the idea that it was his religious responsibility to murder Infidels. Yet there is absolutely no program in any mosque to teach converts why they should reject this supposedly twisted version of Islam, and absolutely no curiosity among law enforcement or government officials about why so many converts to Islam keep misunderstanding the Religion of Peace — all in exactly the same way.
“Son of Boston Police capt. charged in connection with ISIS terrorism plot,” WHDH, July 13, 2015:
BOSTON (WHDH) – A man from Adams has been arrested and charged in connection with a plot to engage in terrorism on behalf of ISIS.
Alexander Ciccolo, 23, was charged with being a felon in possession of firearms. The criminal complaint was unsealed on Monday.
Ciccolo is the son of Boston Police Captain Robert Ciccolo, who was one of the first responders to the Boston Marathon bombing. Capt. Ciccolo is in charge of the Boston Police Department’s 911 call center. He has served with the department for more than 25 years.
According to the complaint affidavit, Alexander Ciccolo took delivery of four firearms on July 4, 2015, which he had ordered from a person who was cooperating with members of the Western Massachusetts Joint Terrorism Task Force. Ciccolo was arrested immediately after taking delivery of the firearms, which included a Glock 17-9mm pistol and a Glock 20-10 mm pistol.
Ciccolo had previously been convicted of a crime punishable by more than a year in jail and was prohibited from possessing firearms.
It is alleged that Ciccolo is a supporter of the Islamic State group. According to an affidavit, Ciccolo spoke with a cooperating witness in recorded conversations about his plans to commit acts of terrorism inspired by ISIS — including setting off improvised explosive devices such as pressure cookers filled with black powder, nails, ball bearings and glass — in places where large numbers of people were gather, such as college cafeterias.
The FBI arranged for the cooperating witness to meet Ciccolo, who told the witness he had a plan to engage in domestic terrorism operations. The witness agreed to participate with Ciccolo.
On June 24, 2015, Ciccolo met with the cooperating witness in person in Pittsfield. The meeting was audio recorded. During the meeting, Ciccolo spoke about his plans to travel to another state to conduct terrorist attacks on civilians, members of the US military and law enforcement personnel.
Ciccolo told the cooperating witness he would attack two different bars and a police station. He also stated he planned to use improvide explosive devices during the attack to include pressure cooker bombs and/or portable microwave bombs.
Agents also allegedly found several partially constructed Molotov cocktails in Ciccolo’s apartment….

What attraction does islam hold for an Italian-American (I expect originally Christian) young man who also happens to be the son of a police officer in Boston? Was he brainwashed/forced into the cult during his previous stint in prison?
Charli Main says
“What attraction does islam hold for an Italian-American ” ??
What it holds for all sociopaths—–To be able to indulge in all their insane, rape and murder fantasies.
Islam is the only ” religion” that encourages its adherents to torture, behead, bury alive, crucify, rape children, burn alive, have sex with animals and dead women, own sex slaves, drown people and then rewards they with a paradise filled with whores and little boys.
Think of any filth or perversion and Islam condones it, All of which makes Islam the “religion ” of choice for every raving lunatic and psychopath on the planet.
mortimer says
Agreeing with Charli’s excellent points. Islam is for psychopathic wannabe’s.

The answer is to give the mosque taxpayer money. The taxpayers in the People’s Socialist Republic of Massachusetts are already in the of the mosque building business, so why not fund religious education programs conducted inside the Moslem buildings they built? Makes sense. Consistent.
cronk says
Let see, the young man was already a convicted felon – meaning he probably had multiple run ins with the law prior to his felony rap.
Perfect material for a Muslim recruitment effort.
He’s already angry and alienated from the rest of society. There isn’t much they need to do, to turn him.
Jaladhi says
All these converts learn about real murderous Islam from their mosques only. The talk about self radicalization is such a nonsense but it serves the Muslim narrative which our leaders and media willingly gobble up because then they don’t have to tell the real truth about Islam and the real culprits – their imams!!!
gfmucci says
“…absolutely no program in any mosque to teach converts why they should reject this supposedly twisted version of Islam.”
Do you suppose this is because the “radicals” actually represent mainline Islamic thought and practice.
The more difficult question is why law enforcement do not make the connection. Stupid? Misinformed? Lose federal funding?
Walter Sieruk says
If the jihad terrorist an individual “lone wolf” jihadist of part o fan Islamic terror cell The all base their murderous violence on the Koran which teaches violence and killing. As in 9:5,111. 47:4. The point is not only does the Koran teach violent action but the Koran which is the foundation of a for Islam also is a book of denial about many Bible truths about the real Nature of Jesus. Take in aspect of this ,for example, Islam denies that Jesus is the Son of God. This denial is in strong contrast and in clear contradiction to Bibles teachings .as in Matthew 3:16,17. 16:15,15. John 3:16,17,36. First John 2:22,23. 4:14,15. 5:12,13,20, So according to Isaiah 8:20. Islam is in great error, darkness and the jihadists are in a false religion with a false cause.

Another case of mental illness or effective propaganda by who? Was he a student at a Boston of any college.
Did he have contact with the msa? Or local mosque? Who was his inspiration? Sadly the son of a police officer was the target, to join the ranks. Just an opinion.
underbed cat says
Just wanted to add this had to be the worst day for this police captains life a very hard choice but one that saved once again many lives and maybe the life of his son. Another indication of the spread of some bad idea’s.
