“The FBI reports that all 56 of its field offices have active investigations against other Islamic State suspects… The [recent New York and New Jersey] busts bring to 70 the number of IS-inspired terrorists arrested in this country in homeland plots.”
The below editorial in an affiliate of Investor’s Business Daily ably sums up what is documented here on Jihad Watch every single day:
“Increased [Muslim] piety fits a pattern among IS and other terrorist recruits. The Boston marathon bombers and the Chattanooga shooter underwent the same transformation. The more religious indoctrination they absorbed, the more radical they became.”
“ISIS Organizing Small Armies Inside America,” Investors.com, August 12, 2015 (Thanks to the Colonel)
Homeland Insecurity: The FBI’s arrest of a group of New Jersey and New York Muslims trying to organize a “small army” for the Islamic State leaves little doubt we are facing a full-blown Islamic insurgency inside our borders.
According to a just-released federal criminal complaint, five young Muslim men tied to IS were busted conspiring to recruit a small army for the terror group in New Jersey and New York.
The busts bring to 70 the number of IS-inspired terrorists arrested in this country in homeland plots.
Meantime, the FBI reports that all 56 of its field offices have active investigations against other IS suspects.
It’s now clear we’re besieged by a Fifth Column. Yet the White House fatuously insists these are unrelated, unconnected, isolated, one-off “lone wolf” incidents.
Federal agents don’t see it that way. They see all these “lone wolves” running in the same religious pack.
On Monday, agents charged Nader Saadeh, a 20-year-old Jordanian immigrant from Rutherford, N.J., with providing material support to IS. Saadeh’s 23-year-old brother, Alaa, along with at least three other Muslims were also arrested in connection with the IS cell.
The complaint says the devout Muslims “discussed building a small army” to attack non-Muslims. In a recorded conversation, one suspect fretted about NSA surveillance and suggested they leave America, to which another suspect stated: “Why? We already infiltrated.”
“Saadeh sent electronic messages expressing his hatred for the United States and desire to form a small army that would include their friends,” the Justice Department said in a statement. “Saadeh posted on his Facebook page images of ISIL’s flag and the flag of the Islamic caliphate.”
The FBI added Saadeh posted anti-American messages online and repeatedly downloaded IS videos and praised the terror group’s atrocities, including beheadings, burnings and the murder of French cartoonists.
He agreed offending the Muslim prophet Muhammad is “reason to encourage Muslims to kill whoever does that.” Some of the IS suspects arrested earlier allegedly were scouting New York landmarks as possible terror targets, including the George Washington Bridge.
Perhaps most chilling, the radicalization of the Saadeh boys appears to have had the blessing of their Jordanian father, who had been deported from the U.S. along with Saadeh’s mother after “sustaining criminal convictions.” The FBI says the father advised one of his sons to “delete everything off his phone” to avoid federal authorities detecting their plans.
The 16-page complaint notes that agents and informants observed “changes in Saadeh’s appearance and behavior” that coincided with his pledging allegiance to the Islamic State. From late 2014 through April of this year, it says he:
• “Frequently researched Islamic writings and often studied the Quran.”
• “Grew out his beard and dyed it red,” mimicking Muhammad.
• “Began to fast, and stopped drinking, smoking and eating foods that were not permissible under Islamic law.”
• “Began praying five times a day.”
• “Wore traditional Muslim attire in place of the Western clothing he had previously worn.”
• Became “offended and agitated by any conversation or mention of any religion other than Islam.”
• “Converted (others) to Islam.”
These details provide valuable investigative clues for local authorities trying to ferret out other radicalized jihadists in the Muslim community.
Saadeh’s increased piety fits a pattern among IS and other terrorist recruits. The Boston marathon bombers and the Chattanooga shooter underwent the same transformation. The more religious indoctrination they absorbed, the more radical they became.
The FBI complaint contradicts White House claims the terrorists aren’t motivated by religion.
It also suggests that rooting out this problem will require putting more mosques under surveillance.
Let’s hope so. That is only common sense.
Goat Pimp says
Let’s quit playing whack-a-mole and whack the whole by enacting stricter laws against Muslim terrorists. Deportation, Muslim-profiling, mosque-closure, and life sentences should be the norm. It is only common-sense.
Dan says
Problem is “Common Sense” isn’t common anymore.
mortimer says
Your version of ‘common sense’ went out of fashion at Nuremburg in 1945.
Rob Crawford says
Huh? Jews weren’t waging war on Germans.

Rob, the decent Mortimer was referring to the Nuremberg Trials of Nazis as common sense–*not* the ideas of the perpetrators of the Holocaust.

Sorry, this was in reply to Goat Pimp.

It is disgusting what Obama is doing. He never ceases to amaze me in his support for terrorists.

He walks like a duck, quacks like a duck, looks like a duck, yet he says he’s not a duck, now isn’t that just like a duck? By jiminy he must be a duck! Doh!

I’m not sure under what circumstances we being shooting…If you shoot someone, even in self defense, you may be arrested, and at best you have to answer a lot of police type questions. Under some circumstances it may be the only thing to do, if you are armed…But for your average street attacker, I prefer to beat them into surrender with my handy dandy yawara sticks, or kubaton, sometimes known as 6 inches of sudden death…I would then get out of there and not wait for the police to show up…
mike says
You get closer and go hands on with these barbarians if you want to. I prefer 2 to the chest one to the head.
Guy Macher says
The answer is to stop Muslim immigration NOW. And then start shipping them back to whatever hellhole they choose. NO Muslim can make a positive impact on any Western country.
Yes, it will be difficult and bloody but it must be done. The sooner, the less difficult, the less bloody.
Judi says
Guy – ditto to that ! It’s the only way.
Goat Pimp says
And when incarcerated, the terrorists should be segregated (with no religious privileges). Let them radicalize themselves all they want. But their poisonous ideas should not be allowed to pollute our normal murder/rapist/gang-banger populations.
Howard says
I agree. I never thought I would go to bat for murders and rapists who I think of as the worst of human beings, however they can get worse if they become radicalized by Islam. An Islamic terrorist is the bottom of the barrel of humanity.
Dave J says
Islamism provides a convenient cover for those who wish to act out their sociopathic and criminal intents. It will encourage them, defend them, excuse them and praise them while presenting the pretense of peaceful holiness. In this religion the most devout are the most cruel, violent and devious.
Muslim’s ultimate allegiance to Allah over any secular, democratic or patriotic considerations means that they are and will always be a “clear and present danger” to our society.
PRCS says
“Increased [Muslim] piety fits a pattern among IS and other terrorist recruits. The Boston marathon bombers and the Chattanooga shooter underwent the same transformation. The more religious indoctrination they absorbed, the more radical they became.”
Why do did this author–like so many others–equate increased piety and Muslim religious indoctrination with radicalism?
C’mon. Increased Muslim piety means a greater degree of compliance with Islam’s written texts; NOT radicalism or extremism.
Geez!
Angemon says
Now, now, we all know that islam is the religion of peace, and a religion of peace wouldn’t raise an army ever… sarc./ off…
Undaunted says
Surveillance won’t work. We’re going to have to fight ’em.
Walter Sieruk says
Once again this should serve as a reminder that we ,as Americans, need not live in fear or be afraid to go places nor do thing Yet, nevertheless, we still need to keep a balance view on things and be on the lookout for anything that seems not to look quite right. As in “What’s wrong with this picture ?” Then if something seems to look wrong then go and tell the right person about it. As for example ,the tee-shirt vendor at Times Square who saw some smoke out out of a parked van and hen told a police officer about it. As it has been said “If you see something, say something.” To put in in another way, the wisdom of Thomas Jefferson may apply even more today then it did in his own time. For Mr. Jefferson stated “Let the eye of vigilance never be closed.”
Champ says
Good, sound advice, Walter; and I have my local police department phone# already in my cell to report non-emergency situations or even suspicious activity.
Undaunted says
Vigilance, like this…
http://freemendo.typepad.com/undaunted/2010/05/nyc-bomber.html
And I maintain that we’ll have to do much more than just be on our toes and say something if we see something. We WILL have to fight them. Fist fights, gunfights, the cops won’t be able to save us, not all of us anyway. So… prepare.
Zammana says
Charles Manson was never at the scene of the crime(s), yet he sits in prison for inciting others… Do I really have to explain this further?

How long before our security forces are completely overwhelmed by Jihad terror? Even now, we have horrors like the Boston Marathon Bombing and the Chattanooga shootings falling between the cracks.

There is a saying. One who eats salt will Drink Water. As we know, US promotes and Welcome Terror Jihaids on the Labeling of Migrants.
These Jihads will will show their Real Color. No One can Stop it. US will Taste the Outcome of its Actions.No way Out.
Ariel says
It doesn’t make sense that this idiot (Nader Saadeh’s) father was deported by the US authorities while this idiot and his brother stayed on in the country. The US must ensure that Nader and his brother and other cronies of his meet their Creator and do not live to fight the US and the West. Elimination of IS supporters is the only way of cleansing the world of terrorists.
Truth Seeker says
Noting Strange. It is the Outcome of Promoting Muslim Jihadi Migrants, by the Administration. Terror Strikes will be more in numbers as the Population of Muslims go up.
As many say, Muslim Trojan horses have Infiltrated to US Administration and with their Influence Administration takes abetting Step to this Jihadi Migration.
If situation continue like this, the day when US will find End of its Superpower Position Very Soon.

There is no radicalization. There is ISLAM, and those who follow it. Period.

Lakshmanan says
Whatever his intentions, by refusing to involve American troops in Arab conflicts, President Obama is also responsible for the devastation of Arab society and migration of hundreds of thousands of families in Syria, Iraq restlessness in Kurdish and in Turkey. A shattered family wont believe any religion as blindly as other people who face no struggle in their day-to-day life. This struggle will result in the decimation of their religion. Israel’s minister said recently that Syria is dead and will take some time to announce its funeral. Due to these very same conflicts the dominant religion of the region is in its death bed. The day Saudi Arabia feels the heat, the world would be surprised to know that Islam is an excuse for IS thugs to indulge in loot and atrocities and even they do not believe in their religion.
underbed cat says
I think it is highly doubtfull that Obama has refused to involve American troops…he has sent American troops into the most dangerous area, to train the enemy who will if he follows his sharia and koran will or could turn his guns on theU.S. trainers. If you beleive Obama words…sometimes truthful sometimes fibs, or if his statements don’t convince you where his loyalties lay, or ever read that he will stand with the muslims when dark cloulds come, or that “the future does not belong to those who slander the prophet of islam”, knowing the the penalty is death, whoever he says he is I don’t view him as anything else than a muslim slightly hiding.
Yes in my opinion it seems he has been gathering the muslim armies, immigration, refugee programs decided by the majortiy U.N. Islamic countries, conversion and by weakening the U.S, aiding and abetting al queda in my opinion for far too long. I have to say it’s just my opinion bs. I also have an opinion that the insurgency is complete…so an annoucement by a military leader that our president has supported al queda willfully is good news to my ears, in my opinion it may lead to an acknowledgement..if the get the facts about sharia, koran and tacqqya get known and the money flow stops we may have a chance to survive. Our Father who art in heaven deliver us from evil.
