New in PJ Media:
Muhyyee-Ud-din Abdul-Rahman is eighteen years old, and like many young men his age, he had big dreams. Abdul-Rahman’s dreams, however, didn’t run along the lines of owning a Karma Kaveya. Instead, Abdul-Rahman wanted to become a bombmaker for jihad groups, and he researched the Philadelphia Pride parade and the Army-Navy game as potential targets. His father, a prominent far-left lawyer, had no comment, but one has to wonder: did this young man learn at home that this kind of behavior was acceptable?
The Associated Press reported that Abdul-Rahman was nothing if not enterprising: he “conducted at least 12 tests on homemade bombs near his family’s home before he was arrested and was close to being able to detonate devices with a blast radius of several hundred yards.”
Robert Listenbee, Philadelphia’s First Assistant District Attorney, adds that the would-be jihadi “had a scholarship to attend college as a wrestler and decided he wanted to become a bomb maker. He wanted to leave America and go to Syria to join a terrorist group. He developed bombs in his home and tested those bombs 12 to 20 times in his backyard and in the woods nearby. Some of the bomb-making parts were found in his trash before he was arrested.”
As Abdul-Rahman was doing all this, it is extremely unlikely that his parents didn’t notice: “detectives found Abdul-Rahman was collecting materials to make explosives at his parents’ [home].”
Abdul-Rahman wanted make bombs for two jihad terror groups: Katibat al Tawhid wal Jihad (KTJ), which is an al-Qaeda affiliate, and Hay’at Tahrir al Sham (HTS). He did not, however, intend to use his bomb-making skills only in Syria. CBS News notes that he was “was searching online for potential targets in the Philadelphia area, specifically the Philly Pride March and the Army-Navy game. He allegedly was also looking into targeting local power plants and domestic military bases.”
How far has the apple fallen from the tree? Muhyyee-Ud-din Abdul-Rahman is the son of Qawi Abdul-Rahman, a prominent Philadelphia criminal defense attorney who ran in May 2023 for a seat as a Philadelphia Common Pleas Court judge. In a “vote for ten” election, Abdul-Rahman finished fourteenth, with 3.88% of the vote.
In a campaign video, Abdul-Rahman wears a djellaba, a flowing robe that is common in North Africa but usually worn in America only by Muslims who are extremely devout. His forehead also sports a superbly prominent zebiba, a dark mark caused by performing the repeated prostrations that are called for in Islamic prayer, and that is generally understood to be a sign of extraordinary piety.
There is more. Read the rest here.

This reads very much like something that was here on JW some time back…a year, maybe?
Is this the same two devout mozlums which were featured….a lawyer running for office, showing his mozlum anger when asked about what he knew and when he knew it…. and the younger one is just now being charged?
If so, it seems Lady Justice is standing in molasses.

Waiting for Palestinians for Queers to condemn this genocidal plan.
࿗Infidel࿘ says
They don’t exist. Queers for Palestine, otoh, should logically condemn it, but they won’t

……………………………………
Jihadis and strange bed fellows…
GianCarlo MATTA says
the guy is son of Qawi Abdul-Rahman, a prominent attorney : a dog can only generate another dog .
gravenimage says
Thanks for that information, GianCarlo. So–all Jihadis…
https://www.phillymag.com/news/2023/08/14/qawi-abdul-rahman/
Note his threats to those asking questions.

[ Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner said in a statement :
“in the name of a perverted ideology that in no way, shape, or form represents the beliefs of the overwhelming majority of peace-seeking people of faith, including muslims” ] = Krasner is a really smart fellow, a member of democratic party : gosh !! who would have ever thought !!
Rufolino says
The nations of the West are now full of people who hate them and want to destroy them.
They were invited in, and they are still being invited in, made welcome, and tolerated.
There is a name for this stupidity: “civilisational suicide”.
James Lincoln says
Of course, the bombmakers father – Qawi Abdul-Rahman – knew nothing about his son’s plans…
OLD GUY says
I would find it hard to believe that the parents didn’t know of his bomb building and blasting in the backyard. Islamic men often use their wives and children to commit jihad on their behalf.
Ralph says
Son should get life; father 10 years as an accessory. Time to kick ass.

What is so surprisingly imbecilic is that we have Islamofascists like Abdul-Rahmann wanting to bomb a Pride event, and we also have a liberal, far-left “elite crowd praising Islamist terrorists who fail to understand that their favorites’ Sharia law beliefs are so antithetical to their own “progressive” and “woke” views!
Parading with Islamist symbols and raising flags of regimes whose medieval medieval beliefs include flogging women for “adultery”, bombing Pride parades, condemning to death gay or “pansexual” people and marrying 6-year-old girls with 60-year-old imams (as is official practice in today’s Islamofascist Turkey) is cognitive dissonance on parade!
Back in 1970, the Christian population of Lebanon was 68% and now it’s barely 15%. Meantime Hezbolla has 15 seats in their Parliament all sworn to the destruction of Israel and remaining Christians in that poor country.
Syria is a terrorist nest now, yet that country was a secular state under Bashad and women ministers are in their Parliament and Jews, Christians and muslims lived together before ISIS and Muslim Bros & Hezbollah & Hamas reared their ugly heads.
