He was in the National Guard. He converted to Islam and plotted to massacre 150 non-Muslims and join the Islamic State. Authorities remain uncurious, however, about the process of converting to Islam and how Islamic texts and teachings may incite converts to commit acts of violence.
“National Guard soldier ‘who planned Paris-style attack on US soil’ to kill 150 people facing 30 years in prison and a $500,000 fine after pleading guilty to trying to join ISIS,” by Darren Boyle, MailOnline, December 15, 2015 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):
A National Guard soldier who conspired with is cousin to join ISIS and massacre up to 150 people at his military base is facing up to 30 years in prison after pleading guilty to providing support to a terrorist organisation.
Hasan Edmonds, 23, of Aurora, Illinois, pleaded guilty to one count of conspiring to provide material support to ISIS and one count of attempting to provide material support to the same organisation.
His cousin Jonas Edmonds, 30, also admitted the conspiracy charge as well as one count of making a false statement to authorities regarding international terrorism. He is facing a maximum jail term of 23 years when he reappears in court for sentence next year.
Hasan Edmonds, made contact with an undercover FBI agent whom he believed was an ISIS terrorist in Libya.
He requested advice on ‘how to fight and defeat the US military’. At the time, Hasan Edmonds was serving with the Illinois National Guard in Joliet. He told undercover agents were willing to attack the United States.
Both cousins later met with another undercover agent in March who pretended to help the younger Edmonds travel to Mosul in Iraq to join ISIS.
They also discussed a plan for Jonas Edmonds, 30, to use his cousin’s military uniforms to attack the base in Joliet, Illinois where Hasan Edmonds was assigned.
Jonas said he wanted the undercover agent to help him achieve a ‘body count’ of 100 to 150 people.
Hasan Edmonds took his cousin and the undercover agent to the base on March 24 to conduct surveillance and retrieve a training schedule in order to pick the best time to attack, the plea agreement said.
Hasan Edmonds and his cousin Jonas Edmonds spoke to undercover federal agents about their plan to attack the Illinois National Guard Armory in Joliet, pictured, where Hasan served as a soldier
Jonas Edmonds drove his cousin to the airport the next day, but Hasan Edmonds was arrested before he could board the flight to Egypt. Jonas Edmonds drove from the airport to his cousin’s house but was arrested before he could retrieve the uniforms….

“Personally, I don’t trust one Muslim in our military. [I]f they truly are a devout Muslim, and follow the Quran and the Sunnah, then I feel threatened because they’re commanded to kill me.”

Indeed, only traitors of our troops and the same of our nation support Believers in the way of Muhammad to “serve” in our ranks.
Angemon says
That’s not a serious issue in Britain – there are more british muslims in ISIS than in the British army.
Michael Copeland says
Here is a specimen of muslim red herring waffle:
“the primary causes of the current tension and conflict … are not inherently based in religion but rather, rooted in a complex matrix of political, social, ethnic, economic, and legal problems, among which the issue of justice – or the lack of it – looms large as a common factor.”

We are all convinced.
That settles it.
islam :- the religion of con artists says
Holy sh*t, do taxpayers actually pay people to come up with this sort of stuff ??
or are they having us all on …. it sounds like a Monty Python skit to me ..
jihad3tracker says
At least some FBI agents have not sold their souls out to Hussein Obama’s Islamic pathology.
But before getting too comfortable, let’s remember that there are about 9,500 persons in the U.S. who were not sufficiently vetted upon entry —- and, as Pam and Robert reported a week ago or thereabouts, have disappeared.
In testimony, a State Department official spokes-moron replied, when asked about their locations “We don’t know.”
abad says
Islam allows tattooing its holy symbols upon the human body?
WTF?
I suppose this joker will get invited to the White House for lunch. Have Clock Boy as his dinner partner.
خَليفة says
Most Muslims believe permanent tattoos to be haram.
One can look on Sunnah.com and read the Many curses applied to women who have tattoos or apply them to others. I did not find any one specifically cursing men with tattoos, but there are hadiths forbidding tattoos and filing teeth which apply to all.
i would say Muslims should not go to a dentist becaus the dentist might file your teeth to increase the gaps between your teeth – which is haram, or he may file your teeth to make you look prettier ( also haram )
It is clear that Muhammed was a nincompoop who pulled Quran verses out of his ass whenever he needed to manipulate his ignorant followers and get what his self centered, mysoginistic little ego wanted.
Richard says
I agree that the (legendary) Muhammad pulled Quranic verses out of his ass. However I must ask, have you yourself ever been to the dentist? They do NOT file on teeth to increase the gaps!
خَليفة says
How big is a gap? I had some teeth so close together that floss could not be used – the dentist ( filed ) used some type of very thin 2-sided sanding strip to widen the “gap” enough to allow using dental floss. So, yes I’ve been to the dentist.
Filing, grinding, sanding – all kind of the same. But I do get your point.
Rick Savard says
You are exactly right about how Muhammad went about establishing the tenets of islam. Faced with a conundrum, or a contradiction to a previous saying he simply went back to his hovel that night and emerged the next morning telling one and all that the angel Gabriel visited him last night and cleared it all up for him.
Wellington says
Again I assert that just about the last group of human beings who should be Muslim are blacks considering 1) the Islamic world’s much longer involvement in African slavery than that of the Western world; 2) the fact that the Western world eventually realized the great wrong which this iniquitous institution was and which thereafter took numerous measures to end it, contra what the Islamic sphere of mankind did here of its own volition, which is to say nothing; 3) the fact that the founder of Islam himself owned black slaves and referred to them in derogatory terms (e.g., “raisinheads”—-Bukhari Hadith 1.662) while other religious founders like Jesus and Buddha owned no slaves at all; and 4) the fact that the Western world has profusely apologized for its role in this vile activity while the Islamic world has never apologized to this day for engaging in the enslavement of untold millions of black Africans.
All Muslims are confused human beings IMHO but black Muslims even more so because of the reasons I stated above. I really can’t imagine what an effective argument might be made of which would refute what I have contended here. Any black Muslim out there care to try? Any Muslim at all? Anyone at all?
BlueRaven says
I give it a go Wellington, an Islamic style – “Only the Islamophobes come up with a bigotry remarks like that. It is an African tribal issue. The slavery was originally started by the Africans (which is incidentally true) and Mohammed freed them. Mohammed was the the first person to abolish slavery..”
Merry Christmas to all JW activists.
Wellington says
Very funny, BlueRaven, precisely because so true, never mind of course that Mohammed traded two of his black slaves for (presumably) one white slave {Sahih Muslim 3901}. And while we’re at it, let’s not impute FGM to Islam since it is just a cultural practice even though the vast majority of women who suffer this barbaric procedure just happen to be Muslim.
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you, BlueRaven.
BlueRaven says
Same to you Wellington.
We got to have some laughs about the way these idiots come out with instantly ready absurd and nonfactual statements like a magician pulls a rabbit out of a hat. They affect the main stream Joe who doesn’t care much about fact findings. The Muzzies are pretty effective spreading around the horse manure via MSM in every State.
I read comments on JW, but I refrain from commenting much myself, because Islam and the MSM charges up my whole system in a negative way. I think it will be a great service to all Jihad Watchers to mock their statements as much as possible. That will attract more people and it will be more educational.
BlueRaven says
what I meant to say, to mock their statements in a commical manner to have some laughs.
jihad3tracker says
Spot on, Sir, as always !
Barry Hussein Obama Soetoro is does not have the maturity and strength of character to abandon a spiritual resonance with Islam precisely BECAUSE he is black.
He has a grievance addiction which (from my un-polled but daily-observed experience) a majority of well educated & degreed African Americans cling to, thereby reducing guilt about being in the upper-middle or even top economic earning tier.
خَليفة says
Muhammed said blacks are worthy to be slaves.
http://islammonitor.org/index.php?option=com_content&id=2765
Wellington says
Thanks for that link. Just further confirms that no black should be a Muslim if the truth is known about Islam and its huge role in black slavery, far more extensive than that of the Western world and with no apology whatsoever to date for it.
To all black Muslims out there who may read this: Reconsider being a Muslim. The Islamic world’s track record on slavery, and beginning with Mohammed, is far worse and in sundry ways compared to that of the Judeo-Christian world, and this latter world’s role was bad enough.
Wellington says
BTW, jihad3tracker, best of the season and may you have a Muslim-free New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day.
jihad3tracker says
Back at you with a like-minded wish, Sir.
celticwarriorcanada says
I agree Wellington ! Even a guy like Cassius Clay , who supposedly abhorred Racism and Slavery ! How could he follow the teachings of the Black Supremacist Elijah Mohammed ? And later convert to the Sunni type of Islam ? Either Way , but particularly Sunni islam , portrays itself as Racially Neutral , While at the same time denigrating black muslims while Exalting the Supremacy of Arabic Language ,culture and even dress !
jihad3tracker says
You mentioned Elijah Mohammed —
For readers here have never encountered Lewis Farrakhan’s “Mother Ship” adventure, do a web search to turn up a video of him speaking about it, in front of a large audience. If you are annoyed that your state or country has not yet legalized marijuana, listening to “The Honorable” L. F. astonish his listeners with that miraculous happening might make a good substitute for getting you into the same state of mind as one of the stronger THC content varieties
celticwarriorcanada says
Lewis Farrakhan’s “Mother Ship” Adventure : Oh My Stars Jihad3watch ! And here I thought Jimmy Carter was A Peanut Farmer ! I would never have Imagined that Jimmy Carters U.F.O sighting was a space ship coming to Punish the White Infidels who have Persecuted The Nation Of Islam ! Or did I Understand The Prophecy Clearly ! Great Entertainment ,though I suspect its L.S.D And Magic Mushrooms or perhaps P.C.P. rather than strong T.H.C. ,though we can differ on this issue . so at any rate ,Have A HAPPY NEW YEAR !
Richard says
Blacks who join Islam do so because they are exercising Afro-Centrism in their minds. If they were better informed about the true nature of Islam it could be better explained as cognitive dissonance. You will not receive this explanation from a black Muslim, either due to ignorance of the true nature of Islam or just plain “hate whitey”.
As for Buddha owning slaves, you do realize that Buddha was an ascetic after his enlightenment and had virtually zero wealth as an ascetic – or maybe you don’t.

I hope whoever wins the election next year immediately re-hires Robert to instruct our counter-terrorism agencies on the reality of Islamic Jihad. They should also find a place for Ben Shapiro and David Horowitz.

“I hope whoever wins the election next year immediately re-hires Robert to instruct our counter-terrorism agencies on the reality of Islamic Jihad. They should also find a place for Ben Shapiro and David Horowitz.”
Now that would be fantastic!
Islam :- the religion for ruin of our childrens future says
I agree with Jacko and all us other Bloggers, of course they would have to be on huge consultancy fees …
(which would be the best money the govt could ever spend)
But with a Black Muslim what the heck would he say to Martin Luther King , don’t people like this understand history, where they have come, what the people they are trying to kill have done for them & their children … this sort of stuff always amazes me …
Anyway,, enough enough,,, have a great break and New Year bloggers, lets all try to spread the word of sanity just that little bit further in 2016
gabi says
This guy wants to die for Allah by taking as much lives as he can? Well, he will arrive not in Muslim heaven, near the 77 virgins or more, but at their master in hell. If all these guys imagine Heaven as a place with food, drinks & sex, it means they don’t live like rational humans, with brain, heart and soul, but like animals, trying to kill everything it’s not like them (oh, yes! killing others is the 11th God’s command, right?). Only animals imagine their best life (heaven) with food-drink-sex. End of story!
Gea says
It is the IDEOLOGY of Islam, as taught by Koran, Hadith and Sira (www.cspipublishing.com/pdfs/ATwoHourKoran.pdf) that creates new soldiers for Allah in mosques and other Islamic organizations of America.
Imams are actively recruiting converts in jails and soup kitchen where drop outs of society congregate and are looking for somebody to lead them out of their misery, often self-inflicted by drugs and alcohol. NO imam should be allowed to prison or soup kitchen to recruit among those potentially violent losers and drop outs.
One had to question National guard in Illinois for poor evaluation criteria to weed out potential terrorists from its ranks… Obama must be removed from power and tried for treason, together with Hillary Clinton before we can start cleaning US from this asinine ideology of hate of HUMANITY. We need to start suing mosques for their hate speech, which results in terrorism .
