Minnesota: Muslim migrant sends drone parts to Hizballah

Jul 27, 2020 1:00 pm By Robert Spencer

Hamade will be deported after serving his prison term, which means he is not an American citizen. When he was admitted into the United States, did anyone question him regarding his sentiments about jihad? Of course not. That would have been “Islamophobic.”

“Federal judge in Minnesota sentences second brother for sending drone parts to Hezbollah,” Star Tribune, July 20, 2020 (thanks to Creeping Sharia):

A federal judge in Minneapolis on Monday sentenced a 55-year-old dual Lebanese and South African citizen to 42 months in federal prison for illegally sending drone parts overseas to aid Hezbollah, a U.S.-designated terrorist group based in Lebanon.

Usama Darwich Hamade was first charged under a sealed indictment in 2015, alongside his brother Issam Darwich Hamade and a third co-conspirator, Samir Ahmed Berro.

The case became public in 2018 when Interpol agents caught the Hamade brothers in South Africa. Berro, however, remains at large.

From 2009 to 2011, according to court filings, the three men conspired to send U.S. goods and technology to Lebanon without obtaining the necessary export licenses from the U.S. government. The men sourced drone materials from businesses from around the world, including digital compasses made by Honeywell in Minnesota.

Under Monday’s sentence imposed by U.S. District Judge John Tunheim, Hamade will be immediately deported after serving his federal prison term in the U.S….

    “Under Monday’s sentence imposed by U.S. District Judge John Tunheim, Hamade will be immediately deported after serving his federal prison term in the U.S….”

    And if the Left wins big in the 2020 election? Would it be more likely that Hamade would be released early, given a green card, and hired as a university dorm parent for Muslims?

    Minnesota: Muslim migrant sends drone parts to Hizballah

    I love when my home state does something right and jails these muslims who aid terrorist groups or individuals. It doesn’t happen often, but when it does my heart sings. But I wish our political leaders and law enforcement would speak out against islam’s violent doctrines and the terror they cause. Unfortunately we are a left dominated state that can’t seem to love muslims enough or their religion that threatens death and war against “unbelievers.” These are the same people that want to defund the police when crime was practically epidemic already, even before the death of convicted criminal George Floyd. What has happened to our nation that crazy leftist mobs can control our streets and threaten peaceful discourse with intimidation and violence? How is it that patriots like me risk getting assaulted for waving our flag or expressing pride in my nation? Why am I a bigot for speaking against the religious bigotry of islam? and how can I be a racist when my argument is never about race but rather the explicit violence that islam teaches, condones, and causes. I’m sure the left feels that to help muslims they must lie about their violent religion and cover up for the humanitarian crimes and bloodshed it causes. But the reality is that they aren’t helping anyone but themselves, and probably not even themselves because in the end they’ll get it too. In short, the left is dominated by self serving rapscallions who don’t care about our nation’s future, or the liberties so many have fought and died for. The future of America is doomed as long as states like Minnesota continue to ignore the obvious dangers of islam, and encourage the growth of that violent religion with their lies, apologies, and excuses.

    For the sake of all that’s good an holy, vote these traitors out of office. Give freedom a chance to breathe, and give those who love America a chance to say so without fear of getting murdered for a demented religion of hate.

      If it’s any condolence to us Minnesotans, the local Moslems have teamed up with the BLM/Antifa crowd up here to concentrate on bringing down our current form of government, or better put gubmint. This means our Moslems will to busy to concentrate on Jihad mass murder operations, making it safer at the airport.

        I think pious Muslims are fine at waging violent Jihad and destroying our government at the same time…one of the few skills they might actually possess…

        @Alarmed Pig Farmer. People of Minnesota are from origin Scandinavians, Germans and Dutch. Scandinavians and Dutch are used by nature to give a helping hand to people in need. This is why these hard working people were willing to admit the poor Muslim blacks from Africa “who are suffering so much!!!” They had for sure not watched the movie “Captain Phillips” on Somali Pirates (with Tom Hanks). It didn’t come up to their mind, they had welcomed in their state people with a mentality of crocodiles or sharks. Parasites who belong to the lowest class of their society. Compassion and gratitude are totally not known to them. The only things that matter to them are: Quat (kind of drugs) and Allah. As Allah-addicted they would undertake Jihad mass murder operations. If people of Minnesota want to keep their state and secure the lives of their children and grandchildren, they have to kick them out of the country. Turn their life into hell, they will will escape out of free will.

    I don’t think that questioning Hamade about his sentiments regarding Jihad would have made a difference, since lying to infidels is not the same as lying to another muslim of your sect. He had a purpose and would do whatever it took to achieve it. The founding fathers understood this and made laws to deal with it effectively.

    Usama Darwich Hamade and people like him should upon arrival at a US airport be escorted to room with a lie detector. They will then be asked a series of questions that thoroughly examine his views of misogyny, Jew hatred and jihad-terrorism. Upon failing all three categories of questions, they will be escorted to the next airplane taking them back home to Berzerkistan. They can keep their discriminatory Sharia law and fanaticism to themselves. Not our thing.

      It would not catch all of them, Mortimer–but it would be a start.

    …………….

    Another pious Muslim…

    Then look at this insanity:

    “House passes bill repealing all of Trump’s travel bans and preventing future presidents from enacting similar bans”

    https://www.jihadwatch.org/2020/07/house-passes-bill-repealing-all-of-trumps-travel-bans-and-preventing-future-presidents-from-enacting-similar-bans

    How many more Usama Darwich Hamades will there be if this passes the Senate?

    Treason should result in a death sentence. Supplying weapons or materials to one enemy used to be considered a crime of treason, of course he will get a liberal probably muslim lawyer who will claim he has a mental disorder and didn’t know what he was doing.
