Jalloh also targeted Pamela Geller for jihad murder, although the FBI didn’t bother to apprise her of that fact. Nobody much cares anymore about jihadis trying to murder defenders of the freedom of speech; almost everyone in the mainstream is willing to concede and appease jihad murderers on that front.
Anyway, Jalloh didn’t explain how the Islamic State’s understanding of Islam was “superficial and dishonest,” raising the question of whether he was just telling the judge what he wanted to hear in order to try to get a lighter sentence.
“Ex-Guardsman gets 11 years for Islamic State group support,” Associated Press, February 10, 2017:
ALEXANDRIA, Va. (AP) — A former National Guard soldier who admitted traveling to Africa and boarding a truck to join the Islamic State group before ultimately bailing out was sentenced Friday to 11 years in prison.
Mohamed Jalloh, 27, of Sterling, Virginia, pleaded guilty in October to attempting to provide material support to a terrorist group. Prosecutors had sought a 20-year sentence. The defense had asked for a term of less than seven years, saying the man has renounced the Islamic State.
“I’m sorry to the court, to the people and to the U.S. military,” Jalloh said Friday, WRC-TV reported.
Jalloh is one of more than 100 people in the U.S. to be charged with terror offenses connected to the Islamic State since 2014, according to George Washington University’s Extremism Tracker, and one of seven from the northern Virginia area alone to be charged in the past two years.
In Jalloh’s case, the charges originated from an FBI sting operation. After his arrest, though, Jalloh admitted that he had made his own contact with the group before he had ever been introduced to the FBI informant — contact the government had been unaware of at the time.
Jalloh, a naturalized U.S. citizen from Sierra Leone, had traveled back to Africa with his father in 2015. While there, he met an Islamic State recruiter. In August 2015, Jalloh traveled from Sierra to Leone to stay with the group’s facilitator. He intended to travel to Libya to join the Islamic State, but the plans fell through….
Before returning to the U.S., Jalloh made contact online with an IS operative named Abu Saad Sudani, who put Jalloh in contact with a person he hoped would help Jalloh carry out an attack in the U.S. But that person turned out to be a government informant.In conversations with the informant, Jalloh discussed carrying out a Fort Hood-style attack. He also sent hundreds of dollars to an undercover FBI employee he believed was an IS member….
In court papers, Jalloh renounces the Islamic State group.”I feel like a complete idiot for accepting such a superficial and dishonest interpretation of Islam,” Jalloh wrote in a letter to the court.

Berengaria says
In Pro-Muslim Virginia, JALLOH will only serve a small part of his Sentence, so he will be back on the Streets, VERY SOON. I’m concerned that the NATIONAL GUARD IN AMERICA, seems to have a large amount of Black Muslims & DACA(DREAMERS), who are both instructed that is OK to lie to Infidels & Gringos.
Are they getting paid to fine tune their Killing Skills, which will later be used on unsuspecting Americans?

Another stupid low IQ black slave of Arab cultural imperialism. What a confounded jackass this fool is. This raisin-head abd was born stupid and he will die stupid. Let him out in 5 years time and his reptilian brain will instinctively think of doing the same crime
Frank says
That’s a good point regarding national guardsmen and I’m sure the NRA and the 111 percent group are aware of this. This piece of useless shit needs to be taken out before gets the opportunity for a early release

Northern VA is near DC.
Correct my math if I am wrong . MORE THAN 100 people— ( but not saying how much more than 100) charged with terror offenses—-; 7 from North VA. So -using 100–only solid number–7% of the people charged ( % will decline with better numbers)- from ONE FAIRLY SMALL AREA.
Seems high.
AND NEAR THE CAPITOL. WITH THE LYING, CROOKED CONGRESS ( BOTH PARTIES), the Dept. of (In)Justice; etc.
Connection?

JIHAD is not SUPERFICIAL.
-“The head of its matter is Islam and its pillar is the Salah and its highest peak is the Jihad.” (hadith)
-Caliph Umar ibn al Khattab stated, “There is no izza (honour) without Jihad.” (hadith
-“Whosoever fights to make Allah’s word the highest, then he is in the way of Allah.” [Bukhari and Muslim hadiths].
-“Fight against such of those who have been given the scripture as believe not in Allah nor the last day, and forbid not that which Allah hath-forbidden by his messenger, and follow not the Deen of truth, until they pay the Jizya readily, being brought low” K.9.29
-“This Deen will never cease to exist. A party of the Muslims shall always fight for it until the Hour comes to pass” [Al Jami us Sahih of Imam Muslim – hadith]

JIHAD IS THE BEST DEED IN ISLAM – Interpret the following ‘honestly’ …
Bukhari Volume 4, Book 52, Number 41:
Narrated Abdullah bin Masud:
I asked Allah’s Apostle, “O Allah’s Apostle! What is the best deed?” He replied, “To offer the prayers at their early stated fixed times.” I asked, “What is next in goodness?” He replied, “To be good and dutiful to your parents.” I further asked, what is next in goodness?” He replied, “To participate in Jihad in Allah’s Cause.” I did not ask Allah’s Apostle anymore and if I had asked him more, he would have told me more.
Bukhari Volume 4, Book 52, Number 43:
Narrated ‘Aisha:
(That she said), “O Allah’s Apostle! We consider Jihad as the best deed. Should we not fight in Allah’s Cause?” He said, “The best Jihad (for women) is Hajj-Mabrur (i.e. Hajj which is done according to the Prophet’s tradition and is accepted by Allah).”
Bukhari Volume 4, Book 52, Number 44:
Narrated Abu Huraira:
A man came to Allah’s Apostle and said, “Instruct me as to such a deed as equals Jihad (in reward).” He replied, “I do not find such a deed.” Then he added, “Can you, while the Muslim fighter is in the battle-field, enter your mosque to perform prayers without cease and fast and never break your fast?” The man said, “But who can do that?” Abu- Huraira added, “The Mujahid (i.e. Muslim fighter) is rewarded even for the footsteps of his horse while it wanders bout (for grazing) tied in a long rope.”
Bukhari Volume 4, Book 52, Number 45:
Narrated Abu Said Al-Khudri:
Somebody asked, “O Allah’s Apostle! Who is the best among the people?” Allah’s Apostle replied “A believer who strives his utmost in Allah’s Cause with his life and property.” They asked, “Who is next?” He replied, “A believer who stays in one of the mountain paths worshipping Allah and leaving the people secure from his mischief.”
Stan Lee says
Eleven years (if he serves full-term, is not enough. What he will l4earn in prison will make him a bigger risk than he was. Virginia is not the state in which to arrest and try suspected terrorists, a federal sentence may have been longer.
He knows plenty of information, especially about whom in his NG unit were also terrorist material.I hope he was questioned by knowledgeable questioners.

No believer in Islam should be allowed in the US military or National Guard. Their ideology is hostile to all non-believers and represents a danger to fellow soldiers and the national interest. Would we have enlisted Nazis during WWII?
Terry says
Northern VA is near DC- the Capitol.
According to the post, more than 100 people have been charged——.
7 are from Northern Virginia-is that not a high percentage from a ( relatively) small area?
And is the proximity to DC a coincidence?

Caliph Abu Bakr Al Baghdadi, who is the ISIS chief and the caliph of the Islamic State, is apparently the first Islamic Studies PhD from a Muslim background who has no idea about Islam.
Al-Baghdadi, who has obtained BA, MA and PhD degrees in Islamic studies from the Islamic University in Baghdad, has been condemned as a person who knows nothing about Islam, and as the head of an organization that has nothing to do with Islam.
The professors from the Islamic University of Baghdad, however, do not agree. They taught the caliph and believe his credentials and doctrines are sound.
“If a person who has a PhD in Islamic studies and does nothing but study the Islamic scriptures knows nothing about Islam, then who does?” questioned al-Baghdadi’s main teacher from the Islamic University, preferring to remain anonymous since the fatwa against ISIS and its chief puts his reputation into jeopardy.
“The wine-sipping Muslims, those hedonistic adulterers will tell the world what true Islam is? Obama and Cameron know more about Islam than the faculty of Islamic studies at the Islamic University in Baghdad?” the professor bellowed with rage, while talking to a journalist.
Another professor, who had taught al-Baghdadi for his BA, said off the record that the ISIS caliph was an ardent student.
“He had this obsession with Islamic studies. I used to tell him to go out and have some fun sometimes. But his idea of fun wasn’t too human friendly,” the professor said. “In any case he was a top student. One of the best I’ve ever had. Had the entire syllabus on his finger tips – to be honest, he knew more about Islamic studies than most of the professors.”
“While you can question whether they are humans or not, there is no doubt that ISIS, including Abu Bakr (al Baghdadi), are indeed bona fide Muslims,” concluded the ISIS caliph’s PhD professor.
Carolyne says
Al Baghdadi has learned Islam well and is practicing it in its purest form. While I would wonder how well a student would learn anything at a university in any Muslim country, it appears that Baghdad University is excellent in it’s portrayal of Islam.
