What could possibly have gone wrong? Only greasy Islamophobes would look askance at a Muslim who went to an al-Qaeda training camp also attending a flight school, right?
“Former Okla. Resident Sentenced For Concealing Attendance At Terrorist Training Camp, Visa Fraud,” News9.com, October 3, 2019 (thanks to Ken):
A former Oklahoma resident has been sentenced after he was convicted of concealing attendance at a terrorist training camp and visa fraud, the U.S. Attorney’s Office of the Western District of Oklahoma reported.
Former Weatherford, Oklahoma, resident Naif Abdulaziz M. Alfallaj, 35, was sentenced to 151 months (12 years and seven months) in federal prison for making a false statement to the FBI about his attendance at an al Qaeda training camp in Afghanistan in late 2000 and visa fraud.
“The U.S. Government identified the defendant after finding his fingerprints on an application to join al Qaeda that the U.S. military had gathered from the battlefields of Afghanistan,” said Assistant Attorney General John C. Demers of the National Security Division….
Alfallaj first entered the U.S. in late 2011 on a non-immigrant visa based on his wife’s status as a foreign student.
Alfallaj pleaded guilty in December 2018 to the visa fraud and making a false statement to the FBI, according to a news release.
FBI agents accused Alfallaj of using the fake visa to try to apply for lessons in October 2016 at a private flight school in Oklahoma.
After Alfallaj serves his prison sentence, he is to be removed from the United States, according to the news release.

Hmm.
Sounds remotely familiar. What am I thinking of?
M V says
Had the exact same thought…
Sons of Liberty says
Exactly , …did we not learn anything from 9/11 ? Obviously we didn’t !

Well, this Jihadist has been caught.
John Marks says
Unfortunately he’ll spend the next 12 years converting other inmates to his evil ideology. He should be deported immediately.
DEE says
Glad he got caught..when he gets out he should be cuffed and be with a air Marshall or ICE to make sure he is out of here!!
E T says
EXACTLY what I was thinking. Is CAIR going to help him?

It’s serious I know, but I had to laugh at this extract:
// The U.S. Government identified the defendant after finding his fingerprints on an application to join al Qaeda that the U.S. military had gathered from the battlefields of Afghanistan. //
So is there an application form to join Al Qaeda? I wonder what it would look like?
Name, address, religious affiliation.

Just saying.
Jap says
I had almost the same thoughts.
However the simple fact that these numpty’s are using finger print tech to keep track of their own people is a bit of a concern.
That would make infiltration of the organisation very difficult.
Gorlee Robert says
Naif certainly is naive to believe in islam (today no excuse because of internet especially). Not naive of USA to expell him after his
sentence. . .tnx to Trump probably.
Vicki says
Yes or he might go live with Obammer!!

Funny, I usually associate Oklahoma with musicians like Vince Gill and Toby Keith…

Brief mental lapse….my apologies.
Oklahoma City bombing 1995.

OK also had the moslim who went to his place of work, beheaded one woman worker and tried to behead another before being stopped by another worker with a gun.
and OK tried to make laws that would keep the lawless code of islam out of the Courts as defenses for domestic violence and keeping females from equal treatment. The mb associated cair members fought hard to keep it from the law and statute books.

Yes–just what I was thinking of.
somehistory says
I read some years ago that the U.S. troops in afghanistan were using this fingerprint technology…right on the battle field…to identify terrorists among the people of the country.
This is a good thing, as they found this moslim terrorist, criminal, had applied to be trained by al queda. Fingerprints are frequently found on paper of all kinds and in a lot of diverse places. The creep handled the application with his grimy hands and left his prints.
The troops found the application, located the prints, uploaded to AFIS and there the FBI could find a match with the creep inside the U.S….committing fraud and evidently getting ready to terrorize some unwary Americans.
