“America is the Imam of disbelief that Mighty and Magistic (sic) Allah ordered us to fight. You plan the execution in a church or in a stadium???? Or somewhere like that or you want police officers.”
Where did this young man get the idea that Allah was ordering him to fight? It’s in many passages in the Qur’an, of course, but we’re constantly told that no Muslims in the West, none, understand any of those passages as applicable to the present day. So who taught this teen? Have his parents been investigated? Has his mosque been investigated? Why not?
“Document details Kingston teenager’s descent into ISIS terrorism,” by Stewart Bell, Global News, July 31, 2020:
On Jan. 21, 2019, a 16-year-old Kingston resident disclosed to a contact that he secretly supported the so-called Islamic State.
He also hinted he was about to take action, saying he “may carry out a solo operation in the next few days.”
Three days later, police arrested him for terrorism, but while they had been investigating him for two months, even they were likely surprised by what they found in his bedroom.
Detonators, containers filled with white powders that turned out to be explosives, and diagrams of improvised explosive devices were among the 95 exhibits they seized. It was a bomb lab.
His cellphone listed “churches, night club, public places, sports courts, gardens and parks, crowded places filled with crucifix believers” as possible targets.
The youth, who is originally from Syria and cannot be named because he is a minor, pleaded guilty to four counts of terrorism on Tuesday.
A redacted version of the 37-page statement of facts the accused admitted to was released on Friday, providing a detailed account of the youth’s involvement in ISIS terrorism in the months leading to his arrest.
The earliest entry in the statement of facts is in October 2018, when he messaged a friend about his commitment to jihad, martyrdom and the hereafter.
“I am going to destroy the world,” he said. “Pray for me.”
He later went online to a pro-ISIS forum. He said he had questions about making TATP, a substance commonly used in improvised explosive devices, and was referred to a Syrian-based attack planner who went by Abu Umar Ibrahim.
“Allah willing do you want to carry on an operation abroad?” Ibrahim asked him.
“Brother do you know any brothers living in the USA and are ready to work,” the Kingston youth responded, adding, “The new target the new Trade tower Allah willing.”
Using the social media application Telegram, Ibrahim reached out to a contact in the U.S. he thought was an aspiring “lone wolf” of Syrian descent, but who was actually an FBI confidential human source.
Unwittingly, Ibrahim brought the FBI undercover into the plot, connecting him with “the Canadian brother” in Kingston.
“America is the Imam of disbelief that Mighty and Magistic (sic) Allah ordered us to fight,” the youth told the informant he thought was a fellow ISIS supporter. “You plan the execution in a church or in a stadium???? Or somewhere like that or you want police officers.”
“The most crowded place with the most impact,” the undercover responded.
The youth sent him photos of the supplies he would need to make a pressure cooker bomb like the one used to attack the Boston Marathon, and urged him to work quickly so he could attack before New Year’s Eve….
