“Investigators said there was no indication of a continued threat, calling it ‘isolated.'”
Just wait til they discover that there’s a global jihad.
Meanwhile, where did this teenager get the idea that he should do violence against perceived “enemies of Allah”? We’re constantly told that all Muslims in the U.S. reject the Islamic State and al-Qaeda and their understanding of Islam, and that only greasy Islamophobes believe otherwise. Where did this teen learn about Islam? Where did he go to mosque? Are investigators in Las Vegas looking into this? You can be about 100% certain that they aren’t, and wouldn’t dare.
“Las Vegas police, FBI foil reported terror plot involving Islamic State,” by David Charns and Justin Walker, KLAS, December 1, 2023 (thanks to the Geller Report):
LAS VEGAS (KLAS) — Las Vegas police and the FBI thwarted a potential terror plot involving a 16-year-old, police said Friday.
During a news conference, Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department officials detailed an investigation into a terror threat on a social media platform. The image of the threat was shown by LVMPD officials. It read:
“Peace be upon all brothers who see this. I am here to announce that I will be starting lone wolf operations in Las Vegas against the enemies of Allah. I ask you to make Dua for victory. I am a supporter of the Islamic State, and I will make sure the zionists in this city know it.”
The post included an ISIS flag and words in Arabic….
Police described the suspect as a 16-year-old from Las Vegas who was a recent convert to Islam. A search warrant was served, and the teenager was taken into custody without incident. A police search found components for building an improvised explosive device along with bomb-making recipes and instructions, Deputy Chief Dori Koren said Friday.
Additionally, police found terrorism propaganda, a handmade ISIS flag, a headband and patches. Evidence also included ISIS and Al-Qaida propaganda, radicalization materials, and guidance for conducting a terrorist attack, investigators said. Police also found self-portraits of the suspect wearing the material and surrounded by propaganda, self-produced terrorism propaganda and anti-Semitic threats.
The teenager faces felony charges of terroristic threats, attempting to further an act of terrorism, providing material support to a terrorist, terrorist organization, and/or act of terrorism, and five counts of possession of an explosive component. His name was not released due to his age.
Investigators said there was no indication of a continued threat, calling it “isolated.”…

If a 16yo is old enough to identify as a jihadi and plot a mass slaughter, that 16yo is old enough to be identified openly and fully. Isn’t this kid claiming to be proud of this? Shouldn’t he or she want to be identified? Our laws need to be changed.

The young fool wrote, “I am here to announce that I will be starting lone wolf operations in Las Vegas ”
He’s an idiot. First, for “converting” to a cult of evil, demonic filth. As far as other mozlums are concerned, he’s now stuck with that stupid decision. Stupid in/Blood out. He’ll never get out, but he may die trying.
(The AB’s motto is “Blood in/Blood out” with the same results for the member who wishes to leave. They commit murder to join and must shed their own to leave.)
Second: he sees himself as really tough. Calling himself a “lone wolf,” makes his ego expand and he can feel powerful.
However, there is no such thing as a mozlum ”lone wolf.” They may take lone actions, but they base these on things they hear in the barracks and read from the book of demon filth.
mozlums look to other mozlums for support, funding and motivation. None of them are truly “lone,” although many murder another when “alone” and away from their “brothers,” That, evidently, was his intent.
Many criminals, maybe even most, will boast after they commit a big crime. This boast often gets them caught.
mozlums tell about it beforehand …bragging about their intent to cause suffering. For the rest of us, that turns out to be a good thing.
If the police and FBI cared to, they could find a whole support system for this young fool and his evil ideas on who gets to die by his hands.

That lone actor bit has become wearing; you’re so right. Also, very apt: “Stupid in/Blood out.”

Check his IQ and the Mosque he attends or follows on-line. I doubt that he is bright enough to come up with this idea/plan on his own.
