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

Kentucky: Muslima arrested for advocating jihad attacks in US, promoting Islamic State

Sep 10, 2016 7:49 pm By Robert Spencer

Once again, a convert to Islam gets the idea that her new religion demands treason and the blood of Infidels. Once again, authorities show no interest in this oft-recurring phenomenon.

“Ahead of 9/11 Anniversary, FBI Arrests Kentucky Woman for Allegedly Promoting ISIS-Inspired Attacks,” by Mike Levine, ABC News, September 9, 2016:

Just days before the fifteenth anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks, federal authorities have arrested a Kentucky woman who allegedly advocated online for terrorist attacks in the U.S. and promoted ISIS propaganda through her social media accounts, according to sources familiar with the matter.

The woman, identified as 55-year-old Marie A. Castelli, allegedly lied to authorities when confronted about her activities, sources told ABC News. According to jail records, her 56th birthday is on Sunday, the same day as the anniversary of the worst terrorist attack on U.S. soil.

The FBI arrested Castelli Thursday.

Castelli has been charged with knowingly transmitting threats online, and with lying to the FBI when agents confronted her about her activities.

Castelli appeared before a federal judge today for an arraignment, and the judge ordered that she be detained pending any further court proceedings.

“There is no current threat to public safety related to this arrest, and it is not related to the upcoming anniversary of the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001,” the FBI said in a statement.

According to the indictment filed in the case, in October 2015 she posted messages with the names and addresses of three unidentified “victims,” and “stated that others should locate execute” one of them. The indictment does not mention ISIS by name.

An arrest usually indicates charges have been filed in some form, but it’s unclear when or how charges have been filed in this case. Defendants in similar cases are often charged — at least initially — with the lesser offense of lying to federal authorities during the course of an investigation.

In an online forum, a woman from Maysville, Kentucky, dubbed “Jihad Marie Antoinette Castelli” said she is a Muslim “without a country that accept me for who I am,” and she said she’d “love to meet face to face Sheikh Osama” and meet his family.

According to the Ledger Independent newspaper, Castelli is originally from New Jersey and then lived in Egypt for about 13 years after going through a difficult divorce.

In a LinkedIn profile cited by the Ledger Independent, Castelli says she lost many of her possessions during the divorce and gained a “hatred of the U.S. justice system and courts and lawyers.”

Last December, a woman called Maysville police to express concern that Castelli was taking pictures of herself in front of a local courthouse, the police chief confirmed to ABC News….

    If you’re full of hate and you want revenge then islam is the perfect death cult to satisfy your lust for murder & mayhem …

      Yes, but let’s not forget that Islam is the perfect religion for rapists and pedophiles too!

        And Pope Frances advocates the Islam is a ‘religion’ of peace. Some bishops from Germany and Italy are asking for donations to erect mosques . Can you believe this? Its hard to believe.

      Naturally she chose Islam.
      Some Muslims have to bribe groom’s families to marry angry Muslimas.

      How do Muslim men make babies with these Muslima beasts.
      Yuk !
      I shudder in disgust.

        Jay B–possibly, the women wear their full face covering; and cover most of their body-leaving only their vagina uncovered- and then a quick insert-after the male has aroused himself to the point of an almost instantaneous ejaculation.

        or perhaps, artificial insemination.

        or fantasy sex- the woman dresses as a goat, sheep or camel.

        Just a few thoughts as to how they might want to screw something that ugly

    I have known people, who because of divorce, business setbacks, illness, etc have lost their homes; possessions, etc.

    None ( that I was ever aware of) wanted to kill other people because of that, nor wanted to destroy this country because of that.

    PERHAPS– ( she looks ugly-probably is) she has not had sex in years, and is/was frustrated because nobody wanted her ( sexually) so she did this for attention and to get a lover (?;; screw mate?).

    I think she should be sent to Pakistan- Egypt to good for this bitch.

    just my views

      It’s hard to tell with the Hijab but I will agree with your diagnosis of “there isn’t enough Viagra in the world” Perhaps she should try a full on Burqa. 🙂

      There’s actually a lot of truth in what you said, probably more than you’re aware of. Some of the most famous leftist pro-muslim female politicians like Hillary, Merkel, Theresa May, etc. are frigid dried up creatures that — even in their youth — no man would want to touch with a 10-foot pole. Add white guilt to that equation and you get every leftist man-hating feminist in existence.

      So it’s possible that sub-conciously they want to be dominated by the muslim savages, the way they never have been, which is why you don’t hear them standing up for their sisters in Middle East who are crying out against male domination in islamic sharia-governed countries. In other words, they don’t care about women’s well-being — they just hate (white) men.

    Good grief! An Italian convert, by the looks of it. Fuggly as… where is her burka?

    • Angemon says

      Sep 11, 2016 at 5:53 am

      Maybe she has an Italian grandparent – if she was born in Italy to Italian parents her name would have been Maria Antonietta and not Marie Antoinette. Marie Antoinette sounds more like French of Belgian.

    Why was she arrested? In a sane world she would be put on a shuttle to the islamic state.

    Islam is barren. It has nothing of value to offer, except for violence and grief; and only appeals to the feeble-minded losers.

    I assure you that I didn,t want to have sex with her.

    Nutty as a fruit cake obviously but these people can be as dangerous as organised terrorists.
    I hope the authorities make sure she doesn’t have, or ever will get, any firearms licence at all !!!

    You can tell by the photo that this woman is very happy, joy is just gushing out of her…Islam does not give away joy, it must be purchased…Quran 9:111
    is short but it has a lot of depth…Allah went to the bottom of the barrel for that one…

    The best approach we can start with is prayer for a lost soul. Every soul is precious in the eyes of God.

      But keep her away from anyone she can hurt, as well.

    • Oliver says

      Sep 11, 2016 at 8:10 pm

      She wanted innocent people killed. She is supposed to have posted names and addresses of three ( charged-probably more- my guess) people and wanted terrorists attack.s

      Sorry, Manuel V.

      i disagree–i will go with the late, great general patton. (“A hero is not someone who dies for his country. A hero is someone who MAKES THE OTHER SON OF A BITCH DIE FOR HIS COUNTRY”. (emphasis mine).

      I would sooner see her, and her ilk dead, then innocent people killed or maimed, like the Boston bombers did.

    “Kentucky: Muslima arrested for advocating jihad attacks in US, promoting Islamic State
    Once again, a convert to Islam gets the idea that her new religion demands treason and the blood of Infidels.” That idea is the correct idea for all of Islam it is only time that separates them Everyone is a potential enemy that beheading requires under Islam. Freedom is unknown across the world except for a very few countries and they are leaving freedom as fast as Democrats, Marxists and Islamic terrorists can get their foul message around.

    Like so many other converts to Islam, she has clearly misunderstood the “religion of peace.” It’s interesting how all these misguided misunderstanders independently arrive at the conclusion that Islam requires violence

    Sarcasm off.

  16. Rolf Wittwer says

    Looks like one of 72 virgins.
