Muslim from Canada convicted of jihad mass murder plot in New York City, sentenced to 40 years in prison

Dec 21, 2018 8:00 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

“A Canadian man was sentenced to 40 years in federal prison….for plotting to attack Times Square in New York and the city’s subway.

Canada: Mother of Muslim who plotted to bomb Times Square says he is not a terrorist, he’s mentally ill

Jun 21, 2018 12:01 pm By Robert Spencer

Lawyers: Muslim who plotted jihad massacres “unfairly arrested,” has “addiction issues” and “bi-polar disorder”

Oct 11, 2017 7:20 pm By Robert Spencer
