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

Virginia: Muslim gets 20 years for trying to fund the Islamic State, wanted to commit jihad massacre of cops

Dec 21, 2017 10:47 am By Robert Spencer

Here we go again. Yet another convert to Islam somehow gets the crazy idea that his new religion requires of him treason and mass murder. Why do so many converts misunderstand their new peaceful religion in exactly the same way? Who instructed Lionel Williams in Islam? Is anyone investigating that? Where did he attend mosque? Does anyone know or care? Why not? Isn’t there a single agent in that nest of traitors and clowns known as the FBI who might consider for a moment that this could be a larger problem than just Mr. Williams?

“Man gets 20 years for trying to fund Islamic State,” Associated Press, December 20, 2017 (thanks to Christopher):

…Prosecutors say 27-year-old Lionel Williams was sentenced Wednesday in federal court in Norfolk. He had pleaded guilty in August to terrorism charges.

The case against Williams began after authorities say he pledged allegiance to terrorists on Facebook. Federal agents soon learned the Suffolk man owned an assault rifle.

Authorities say Williams told undercover FBI agents that he wanted to attack “hard targets” such as police officers. Court documents said he also gave informants $250, which he believed was going to fund the Islamic State in Iraq.

    Would be nice if he didn’t get 20 years of Islamic instruction in a prison. Ban the Muslim Brotherhood now

      Plenty of da’wah proselytizing going on in the prisons….
      ….to get back at “the man”….

      Islam is just an ideological system of vengeance and booty grabbing.

        Someone will be grabbing his booty.

        One more reason that Muslims who are imprisoned should be kept separate from other inmates…oh no! That would be prejudice, racism and islamophobic. And what this man did is just one more of thousands and thousands of reasons that Islamic teachings should be banned…oh no! That would be prejudice, racism and islamophobic…Our governments have no guts!!!

    Can we deport him to dar-es-salaam after his prison sentence and let him live in his Muslim paradise? How about Yemen? Or Libya? Or some other showpiece for the world they want us to live in……Somalia?

    No halal food in prison and serve pork to everybody.

    He wears a Nike swoosh, symbol of the Greek Goddess of Victory !

    How ironic.

    What would Mo-Ham-Head think of his minion now?

    (Don’t you just love the definition of “minion” by the way?:
    –> underling, henchman, flunky, lackey, hanger-on, hireling, vassal, stooge, toady, sycophant….)

      Minions?
      An American computerised subtitle on a British news bulletin, understanding only the American pronunciation “aloominum”, spelt out “an allah minion smelter”.

    He most likely converted to islam in prison. Another reason to END the conversions there. And the imams etc. should all be held accountable if one of their “sheep” turns terrorist. Because there’s no “somewhere” where those ideas came from originally.

      Fritz, the mullahs will deny any knowledge of spreading jihadism. Anwar Awlaki was the biggest jihad-preacher in the US, but in public he claimed jihad-terrorism was a ‘distortion’ of religion.

      • MFritz says

        The problem really is, as long as muslims are considered “allies” by leftist idiots and politicians, it doesn’t matter WHAT lies their leaders claim in public.

        If this was about white racism or other forms of crime and terrorism, these people would be under lock and key. And the latter thrown away for good…

    There should be a jihad island to be named “Islamic Paradise” where Muslims can go to make one another miserable… preferably in the middle of the southern Atlantic or a fenced-in area in Africa or Arabia from where there is NO ESCAPE. Give the jihadists lots of food and mosques and Islamic books and let them become 100% Islamic. Most inmates will beg to leave after one or two months. Half of them will be massacred by the other half.

    One of the biggest recruiting centers for Muslims are prisons. Why not? It is ideal. One of the worst places to send this man is prison. Far better to deport him and all Muslims who have been sent to jail and, frankly, I don’t care if the crime mandated one day of prison time or 5000. Send them to their country of origin and if they are native born Americans, send them to their Muslim country of choice and I do not mean Trinidad.

    Deport them and do NOT let them back in the States. Vet those Visas and Passports. Cripes.

    Treason is the only crime in the U.S. Constitution for which the death penalty is specified. That was done for a reason and we need start enforcing the penalty. People like this have abondoned their birthright and can never be trusted.
