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

South Carolina: Muslim arrested at airport for attempting to join the Islamic State

Apr 1, 2017 3:50 pm By Robert Spencer

What will Charleston officials do when Zakaryia Abdin, prevented from joining the Islamic State, decides to wage jihad right there at home?

“U.S. Citizen Arrested for Attempting to Join ISIS,” by Adam Kredo, Washington Free Beacon, March 31, 2017:

A South Carolina man was arrested late Thursday as he prepared to board an overseas flight, where he is accused of trying to join the ISIS terror organization, according to the Justice Department.

Zakaryia Abdin, an 18-year-old South Carolina resident, appeared in federal court Friday morning following his arrest Thursday night by FBI officials, according to the Justice Department.

“Abdin was arrested for attempting to provide material support to the Islamic State of Iraq and al-Sham (ISIS), a designated foreign terrorist organization,” according to a press release.

“The charge is based on Abdin’s alleged attempt to travel overseas to join the terrorist organization,” according the Justice Department. “Special Agents of the FBI’s Joint Terrorism Task Force (JTTF) took Abdin into custody at the Charleston International Airport before he boarded an outbound flight.”

    Allow these jihadis to go. Just take away their passports so they can’t return.

      What would it take to make a law to strip the citizenship in these situations ? Let them go …but be permanently barred from ever sitting foot on American soil ! Why leave the cancer in our country free to kill Americans ,or be supported in prison by taxpayers ? Let them go …good riddance to evil trash !

      • Angemon says

        If they’re American-born, their citizenship can’t be stripped. They can stand trial for treason though.

          then execute the filth, right after found guilty by a jury of Trump, good old boys from S. Carolina…. This guy son of an immigrant?? Gee shocker, another one of those dreamer pigs.

          Oh yeah, it can. Just need some courageous Congressmen to pass a law stating so. Better yet, amend the Constitution.

      Exactly. I never can understand why we don’t HELP them leave. Just, as you note, NEVER let them back.

    Why the complications? Much simpler and politically correct:

    It would have been much easier to allow for his individual human right to personal happiness. Fly him there! Give him as suicide vest, jam packed with his preferred explosive, drop him over an ISIS strong hold, with a parachute. The suicide vest equipped with a remote control, he lands and… 72 Virgins at about 40 metric tonnes each, instantaneously. A win-win for all!

    They should let them go there, but not let them come back.

  4. Djandel says

    Apr 1, 2017 at 5:05 pm

    Yes..let him go and equipped with suicide vest

    There is already a muslim training center in Islamville in York , SC .

    • Brennan Kingsland says

      Apr 1, 2017 at 6:38 pm

      And there is another one in York, South Carolina

      • ed cox says

        Apr 1, 2017 at 7:32 pm

        York , SC . Where is that ?

        • gravenimage says

          Apr 1, 2017 at 10:37 pm

          York is in beautiful north-central South Carolina about an hour north of Columbia, and is now the home of the infamous “Holy Islamville”.

          Here’s more from an investigative report:

          https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_bMgkJya5DQ

          Very disturbing stuff. There is one in my own state of California, as well, outside Bakersfield.

      • ed cox says

        Apr 1, 2017 at 8:46 pm

        It’s called islamville , and is in an incorporated part of York County .

      • Jeanette says

        Apr 2, 2017 at 7:56 pm

        There are supposedly about 60 jihadi camps in America.

        • Jeanette says

          Apr 2, 2017 at 7:57 pm

          And no one goes into those jihadi camps.

          Pedogate may not account for all of the missing American children.

    I agree with the prior ones- let him go.

    he is just upset at his names .. last name starts with Z, first name A.

    so, probably laughed at- Z to A.

    Would have probably been a normal All American Muslim if his names were reversed, .

    Hope he dies soon, so we don’t have to support him.

    ————————————————————————————————————————————————

    I have an idea.

    WHY NOT HAVE THE US GOVERNMENT- NO TRICKS- TAKE ALL THOSE IN FEDERAL PRISON FOR WANTING TO JOIN ISIS , AND THOSE NOT IN PRISON BUT HAVE EXPRESSED SUCH A DESIRE-

    AND CHARTER A PLANE, DROP THEM OFF IN ALEPPO OR RAQQA AND TELL THEM, BYE BYE; YOU ARE NOT COMING BACK.

    The charter is cheaper than keeping them in prison.

    Apr 1, 2017 at 9:52 pm

    Kick them all out back to Syria. They are neither wanted nor welcomed here.

    ………………..

    Oh, boy–now he will be “forced” to wage violent Jihad against his fellow Americans…

  9. davej says

    True. This will spawn more “lone wolves” following the Koran and ISIS urgings.

    You can’t help but wonder how he came to look like the devil incarnate at 18YO.

    • Jeanette says

      Apr 2, 2017 at 8:27 pm

      He looks like a typical, part-Indian Mexican (mestizo).

      We are overrun with them in Texas.

    Every state in this country has been tainted by the new arrivals. Where can we go to be safe? Hungary?

    • Jeanette says

      Apr 2, 2017 at 8:19 pm

      We bought land and built a house in southern Chile – one of most beautiful places I’ve seen in the world.

      It has clean water and air, very inexpensive cost of living, more freedoms than America has now (although Trump might be able to change that). And, we reasoned that an 85% SERIOUS Catholic country would not likely let in a bunch of Muslims.

      Now I’m reading that the Muslims are flooding countries in South America (preparing to launch an attack on America).

      I don’t know where would be safe. The West should have insisted that polygamy be declared a violation of human rights (which it is) long before the herd-breeding program of Islam produced almost 2 billion people. Now a country that says “no Muslims” will only stay Muslim-free until the Muslims decide to hit their borders with a million or a couple of million invaders.

      The only way for non-Muslim countries to be safe is to remove and keep out all Muslims.

      • gravenimage says

        Apr 2, 2017 at 8:30 pm

        Yes–Muslims are flooding into South America–especially into the lawless “Triple Frontier” region. Very disturbing.

      On second thought, someone recently told me that Missouri does not allow illegal aliens, so it might be refusing “refugees,” too.

      If that’s the case, it would be better than most places, at least for a while.

      • gravenimage says

        Apr 2, 2017 at 8:43 pm

        Jeanette, Missouri does not allow illegal aliens to receive state or local benefits, which is–or should be–just common sense. But there are certainly illegal aliens there, as well as “refugees”.
