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

Pennsylvania: Muslim teen indicted for aiding the Islamic State

Dec 22, 2015 7:50 pm By Robert Spencer

“Aziz pledged allegiance to ISIS in June 2014, agents said, and made online threats to kill non-Muslims and to behead President Obama in the White House. He also discussed buying women held captive by ISIS.” Not, certainly, from his local moderate mosque! But don’t be concerned: no doubt John Kerry and the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops are sending representatives to Harrisburg right now, in order to explain to Jalil Ibn Ameer Aziz how he is misunderstanding his peaceful religion.

Jalil Ibn Ameer Aziz

“Harrisburg terrorist suspect indicted by federal grand jury for aiding ISIS,” by Matt Miller, Penn Live, December 22, 2015:

A Harrisburg terrorist suspect who was arrested in an FBI raid last week was indicted by a federal grand jury Tuesday on charges that he actively aided the ISIS terrorist group.

That jury, sitting in Harrisburg, indicted Jalil Ibn Ameer Aziz, 19, on counts of conspiring to and attempting to provide material and resources to a designated foreign terrorist organization, filings in U.S. Middle District Court show.

The succinct two-page indictment names ISIS – or ISIL, the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant, as the federal government calls it – as the intended beneficiary of the Fulton Street resident’s efforts. He is accused of trying to aid the group, largely through Internet activity, between July 2014 and last Thursday.

Filing of the indictment was not unexpected, because U.S. Attorney Peter Smith indicated when Aziz was arrested on Dec. 17 that a grand jury was probing the case. Aziz is scheduled to appear in federal court for arraignment Wednesday afternoon. If convicted on the charges, he could be sentenced to up to 20 years in prison.

Federal investigators said Aziz, a U.S. citizen, spread ISIS propaganda, including videos of beheadings, through Twitter, and provided aid to recruits trying to reach the group’s self-proclaimed “caliphate” in Iraq and Syria.

Aziz pledged allegiance to ISIS in June 2014, agents said, and made online threats to kill non-Muslims and to behead President Obama in the White House. He also discussed buying women held captive by ISIS.

Investigators said a tactical backpack, rifle ammunition, gun clips and a modified kitchen knife were found in Aziz’s closet, along with a head wrap used by ISIS members to hide their faces.

    He’s just a few dollars and a couple of Abrams tanks short of providing as much support to IS as barack hussein obama.

    RADICAL ISLAMIC CHIC IS PREVALENT AMONG MUSLIM YOUTH

    The “jury, sitting in Harrisburg, indicted Jalil Ibn Ameer Aziz, 19, on counts of conspiring to and attempting to provide material and resources to a designated foreign terrorist organization”

    When Muslim youth turn 19, most are now radicalized…how so? They are in a culture of radicalization. No one talks them out of it. No one has a version of ‘moderate Islam’ that is credible.

    Governments must realize that there is no such thing as ‘MODERATE ISLAM’…it’s unicorn-like myth.

    There are practicing Muslims who support jihad and non-practicing Muslims who shirk jihad.

    In Australia two Muslim terrorist plotters arrested today under operation appleby, taking this years total to 13. Enemies within waving civil war, trying to kill and maim people just as they do in almost every country that cared to help them and provided free everything as they sat on their arses and reproduced and procreated like there was no tomorrow, all at taxpayer expense. They repay the favour by trying to maim, kill, and destroy. Utterly ungrateful traitrous group that no country should allow in, ever. So many plots police cannot uncover and foil every one of them. Goverments are playing Russian roulette with citizen lives. Citizens need to take action or they deserve what they get. Muslim community producing too many traitors by far and govts need to stop pussying around once and for all.

      Thanks to Singh the sikh’s comments. Very well said sir! I wrote them down to share with others. Angela Merkel seems to be living in a fantasy world- Germany. Open arms and doors to the nasty invaders! All those suffering with her foolish leadership. Thankyou .

    I’m just glad that law enforcement is doing something as opposed to the nothing we have seen for years. Now let’s see if the judge releases him with community service at the food pantry.
