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

Virginia: Man converts to Islam, plots jihad attack, amasses child porn

Apr 10, 2018 2:52 pm By Robert Spencer

Where did Sean Andrew Duncan get the idea to do all these things? Could these ideas have had anything to do with his new, peaceful religion? Could it be from Islam that he got the idea that murdering non-Muslims was a righteous act (cf. Qur’an 2:191, 4:89, and 9:5)? And that prepubescent children could be objects of erotic interest, in light of the fact that Muhammad, the supreme model of conduct for Muslims, consummated his marriage with the nine-year-old Aisha when he was 54?

“His interest in ISIS put him under investigation, but he ultimately was caught with child porn,” by Rachel Weiner, Washington Post, April 9, 2018 (thanks to Patrick):

A Loudoun County man pleaded guilty Monday to obstructing justice and receiving child pornography in an unusual prosecution that began when he fled FBI agents investigating possible plans to commit a terrorist ­attack.

Sean Andrew Duncan, 22, will spend 15 to 20 years in prison under the plea agreement reached in Alexandria federal court, which included details not just of his Islamic State contacts but also of explicit images he had of strangers and an infant relative. Judge Leonie M. Brinkema will decide his sentence July 6.

Duncan was not charged with a terrorism offense, although he was under investigation for what agents described in court papers at the time as behavior “indicative of an individual planning and researching how to conduct an attack.” He admitted Monday that he was trying to stymie that terrorism probe when he destroyed evidence during a search of his Sterling, Va., home on Dec. 29. As FBI agents came to the front door, Duncan ran out the back, throwing a plastic ­Ziploc bag over another group of agents’ heads.

The bag contained a broken thumb drive soaked in chlorine cleaning solution, damaged beyond repair, so its contents remain unknown. But when agents later searched a smartphone seized from Duncan’s home, they found thousands of images of child pornography. One photo included Duncan with the infant relative. There were also thousands of videos of children and women, including other family members, that Duncan took “in a voyeuristic manner of their rear ends,” according to the court ­documents.

During several searches of phones used by Duncan, law enforcement also found Internet research on terrorist attacks, hidden cameras, body-worn cameras, military-style combat gear, bulletproof armor, M-4 rifle magazines, AR-15 rifles, barricading doors, body armor laws, and Islamic State leadership, according to court filings. Authorities said they also found photos on the phones of tactical gear and what appeared to be assault rifles. They said the images appeared to have been taken at a firearms or ­military surplus store.

Authorities also said Duncan’s name was found among the contacts of an Islamic State recruiter arrested overseas.

Duncan, who grew up in Maryland and also has lived in Pennsylvania, converted to Islam his senior year of high school, ­according to online blog posts. In January 2016, when he was 21, he married Zakiya Sadeq, a doctor Duncan met through religious circles who was 14 years his senior. A month later, according to court documents, a relative called the FBI to report that Duncan had begun expressing radical views.

He had expressed interest in the Islamic State as far back as 2015, according to prosecutors, when he began talking to an unnamed woman overseas about getting married and going to Syria. After marrying Sadeq, according to court documents, Duncan asked the woman whether she wanted to be his second wife and go to Syria with him.

Duncan and Sadeq flew to Turkey in February 2016 and were scheduled to continue on to Bangladesh, but they were denied entry and returned home.

He later told the woman overseas that he thought the FBI was watching him and that his wife could keep secrets and knew what to say if questioned, according to authorities….

    Oh kafir your daughters of any age are helal and lawful for the taking of any Muslim at any time.

    When did Anglo-Celtic Sean Andrew Duncan determine that PEDOPHILIA is a RELIGIOUSLY ACCEPTABLE teaching?

    Question for Muslims: Why did Sean Andrew Duncan and Osama bin Laden both have large PORN COLLECTIONS? What in Islam encourages PIOUS MUSLIMS to like PORN?

    Why do PAKISTANI PREACHERS visiting in ENGLAND choose to watch PORN every night, thus preventing them from having evening TEACHING SESSIONS while visiting mosques in England? Just asking?

    Is it RACIST for me to criticize the PEDOPHILIAC IDEATION of Anglo-Celtic Sean Andrew Duncan ???

    Am I now a ‘racist’ for criticizing an ANGLO-CELTIC Muslim?

    It’s easy to see why this twisted little bastard found Islam so appealing.

      I think he was attracted to Islam because its teachings about it being ok to have sex with children and about killing and violent jihad, agreed with the evil tendencies in him. He must have been thrilled to find out that, if he became a muslim, not only could he indulge his evil inclinations to violence, murder and paedophilia, but that it had divine sanction and he could be fast tracked to paradise.
      In the same way, lots of wanna be murders, rapists, kidnappers, slave owners, thieves and extortionists are attracted to ISIS, BoKo Haram etc.

        Yup. This is why there are so many violent felons who convert to Islam.

    The grass always appears to be greener on the islamic side of the fence to the convert to islam(unlike the Judeo-Christian religions with their pesky commandments … that allah doesn’t even agree with).

    Many of these morons seem to get the idea that their conversion to the cult of islam somehow allows them to commit treason.murder,terrorist offenses.indulge in pederasty or polygamy like their “prophet”.
    They adopt the self-righteous,arrogant persona of the devout muslim zealot who is suddenly allowed to break God’s official Commandments because his new found cartoon-caricature god allah and his koran says you can.

    But you cannot break God’s Commandments:even if allah (wrongly)says you can..because to do that is to sin against God.The Bible says we must obey God’s laws,the koran says you can break them.
    Conversion to islam does not entitle the convert to violate God’s Laws.

    Is it so hard to see that the antichristian,antisemitic,commandment-violating moslem god allah is NOT the True Biblical Judeo-Christian God?

    Apparently it is for the idiot convert to islam.; see how they grow their silly beards,adopt a ridiculous Arab moniker(al Britani,al Amerikani,al jahesh or something),start babbling in arabish …

    LOOK….What is condemned by God in His commandments (is made acceptable by allah for his muslims!)..

    MURDER of infidels k2:191
    ADULTERY k33:50,k4:24(with an enslaved woman)
    STEALING from infidels k48:20
    BEARING FALSE WITNESS taqqiya,tawriya,kitman,muruna…lying to promote islam..

    As long as the targets are infidels,allah is ok with the Violation of God’s Commandments!

    islam attracts the idiot the same way a pile of manure attracts a dung beetle.

    It is obvious by looking at the photos of many of these converts to islam that they are exceptionally dumb creatures.Duncan appears to have nothing going on between his ears except a silly beard,a,moronic grin and what one might define as “the complete absence of any sign of intelligence”.

    Consider for example the following:-
    If they are in the “religion of peace”.. how come they are now in jail for criminal/terrorist activity?

    How is it possible that they fail to see the problem with the commandment-of-God Violating “holy” koran that instructs muslims to BREAK God’s laws?

    If allah hates the Jews (k9:30 etc) so much,then how to explain that odd fact…given that Moses,Elijah etc were Jewish(apart from PRETENDING that they are all muslims)?

    allah’s misunderstanding of the theology behind the concept of the Triune God {koran 4 v 171} leads to ..
    1 the mistaken belief that Christians are polytheists(but ..the Trinity is NOT a polytheistic conglomeration of gods:How does allah not understand theology??

    2 the inability to discern where Biblical prophecy comes from since allah clearly rejects that aspect of God through which prophecy comes{see 2 peter 1 v 20-21).How ridiculous is that???

    How dumb does anybody have to be to convert to islam?Yet it may serve a useful purpose to God.
    The chaff find islam,the wheat reject islam.

    As for these idiots..

    “God sends the power of error to work in them so that they believe what is false”
    2 Thessalonians 2 v 11

    That’s why you see the delusional,self-righteous arrogance of the convert to islam.

    By converting to islam they have PROVED that they prefer falsehood to the truth.

    And..”They will perish because they did not welcome and LOVE the Truth so as to be saved”
    2 Thessalonians 2 v 10

    The “Truth so as to be saved” is found in the Judeo-Christian Biblical God and NOT in the islamic koranic counterfeit god allah.

      I don’t believe one should make religious arguments for or against Islam. By doing so one elevates Islam to the same level as Buddhism, Christianity or any other religion seeking to bring out the best in people. It must be remembered that the Koran has but one author. The result is a text that is very self-serving for Muhammad the land-grabber, sexual deviant, etc.. Everything follows from that.

    The solution for every paedophile, worldwide: Convert, then you are not a criminal, just a muslim…

    • Giacomo Latta says

      Apr 11, 2018 at 10:30 am

      Exactly. Want to bring the crime rate down immediately by 30%? Adopt sharia law and suddenly wife-beating, murder and pedophilia become legal.

      • boakai ngombu says

        Apr 11, 2018 at 11:04 am

        and when that is accomplished, the allah god of islam (unknowable; the best of all deceivers) is very gay – full of delight – and commands all the more that the example of its exemplar, muhammad (lately contrived; full of lusts; lacking compassion) be imitated by those subjugated … ENSLAVED.. by SHARIA… just ask any imam, especially on Friday.

        eliminating reason and wisdom and the pursuit of righteousness, the slaves of the allah god despoil, corrupt, inflict pain and brutalize, in order to destroy soul. the imam expects such be done for the sake of the allah god.

        this does not bode well for the unbelieving generations and peoples

  10. No Muzzies Here says

    Apr 11, 2018 at 9:39 am

    The recent convert is very enthusiastic about his new religion, and learns all he can about it, and tries to put it into practice as soon as possible.
    This leads him to murder non-believers. Shouldn’t we be looking at the dogmas of his religion to see what there is in them that incites the convert to go out and kill?

    Islam brings out the worst in people.

    Expert after expert has stated that the disease of pedophilia cannot be cured It has also been demonstrated that “chemical sterilization” of these warped and dangerous individuals does not work.
    So, while the opportunity exists, put this mentally bent and dangerous threat to hmanity to death NOW !
    He wants to kill innocent people. One million times worse, he wants to destroy the irreplaceable innocent childhood of others.
    I do not want him sharing my air !
    If it ere totally up to me as an individual, he wouldn’t be !
