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

Ohio Muslim arrested for trying to join the Islamic State

Nov 8, 2016 12:18 pm By Robert Spencer

Yet another convert to Islam gets the idea that his new religion commands him to commit treason and murder. Where do converts to Islam learn this? What kind of programs do U.S. mosques have in place to instruct converts properly in what Muslim leaders keep telling us is a religion of peace? Why are Muslims in the U.S. so signally failing to impart this peacefulness to so many converts?

“US Man Arrested for Trying to Join IS, Wage Jihad,” VOA News, November 7, 2016:

U.S. authorities have arrested a 20-year-old Ohio man for allegedly conspiring to join Islamic State militants.

Aaron Travis Daniels of Columbus faces a charge of attempting to provide material support to a foreign terrorist organization.Daniels, also known as Harun Muhammad and Abu Yusef, was arrested as he tried to board a plane. Authorities said his ultimate destination was Libya.

According to the criminal complaint, Daniels sent $250 in January to “an ISIS operative” and had communicated his commitment to violent overseas jihad.

Investigators said there was no reason to believe Daniels was trying to recruit others.

The complaint alleges that Daniels set up email addresses and a social media account using aliases and expressed his interest in violent jihad and traveling overseas in various communications.

If convicted, Daniels could face up to 20 years in prison.

    If you take 20 years of incarceration at $ 32,000 per year it comes out to 640.000. Uncle Sam should just buy him a 1st class ticket to Libya, a steak dinner, a night at some hole in the wall motel and have him give up his US citizenship. This would equal to a saving of 638,000 and you don’t even need to pay for a pine box.

    Them saying it’s the religion of peace is half truth, it will e the religion of peace after the world submits to Allah. This guy would have had a real wake-up call if he had gotten there, Arabian Muslims see black Muslims as dirt Muslims. He would have been used as a suicide bomber. Think about just how many black members do you see in videos and pictures that are black. If Hillary gets elected plan on seeing more of this, and more attacts here.

      It’s worse than that–the Muslim world is hideously violent. There is no peace there even for those who submit to Islam.

    “What kind of programs do U.S. mosques have in place to instruct converts properly in what Muslim leaders keep telling us is a religion of peace?”

    They have the Quran of course.

    As to their leaders telling us Islam is a religion of peace, they are practising Taqiyya of course, as they are obliged to by their foul belief system.

    “The Religion of Piss”!
    That’s Camel Piss.
    To a devote muslim, delicious as well as refreshing!
    These forth world Savages are so ass-backward it’s not funny!
    Who, but a muslim would “Honor” murder their own child??????
    Let me know if you can figure that one out.

      So you consider aiding the Islamic State the same thing as defending America?

    The US should not waste our taxpayers money on these people. If they want to join ISIS let them. Take away their passport, let them and family know that they cannot return to the USA. Then be done with it, easy!
