Where did they learn about Islam? What is their mosque in Tucson teaching? Will investigators look into that, or would doing so be “Islamophobic”?
“Tucson men sentenced for conspiring to join ISIS,” 13 News, January 23, 2025 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):
TUCSON, Ariz. (13 News) – The Justice Department announced that two Tucson men have been sentenced for their efforts to join the ISIS terrorist organization.
27-year-old Ahmed Mahad Mohamed and 26-year-old Abdi Yemeni Hussein are both citizens of Somalia who were living in Tucson at the time of the offense.
They eventually pleaded guilty to conspiracy to provide material support and resources to a designated foreign terrorist organization….
The judge also ordered both men be removed from the United States to Somalia following their sentences.
The Justice Department says, from late 2018 or early 2019 until their arrest in July 2019, Mohamed and Hussein conspired to travel to Egypt to fight for ISIS in the Sinai Peninsula.
Mohamed was also accused of trying to recruit other ISIS supporters online and stated that he wanted to travel to ISIS-controlled territory to become “the beheading guy” and martyr himself….
On the morning of July 26, 2019, the defendants checked in for their flight at the Tucson International Airport, went through security, and walked to the departure gate.
Mohamed was carrying approximately $10,000 that he and Hussein planned to use for travel expenses and to buy firearms.

Now the big question is: where did two somalian ‘migrants’ get that kind of money? Who funded these terrorists? Someone did. That person should also be sent out of the country. Perhaps joining the ones going to Gitmo.

We’re way to soft on these guys, especially foreign nationals. Any assistance to terrorists when in the country illegally should bring the death penalty.
somehistory says
It should, but even sending them to Gitmo gets so much resistance, doing more isn’t likely to happen.
Rick Gordon says
Unfortunately – given the prior administrations we don’t how many of these crazies are here OR their plans and timetables. I fear a domestic tragedy before Trump’s resettlement is completed.
rubiconcrest says
… tell me why we are putting them in prison in the US? Ship them back to Somalia with the provision that if they return they’re be shot. We’re too soft on jihadi’s.

While there are always some evil ‘sicko’s in every community, probably only in Islam we can find so many such evil people. People with common sense should ask why that is the case.
Besides the relatively big number of evil people in Islam community, there are also some disturbing facts, first, in general, the Islamic community in one way or another, is supporting the evil people like trying to hide the crimes happen. Second, the muslim elites, which in Islam means the religious authorities such as imams, clerics and sheiks most likely give support to such evil crimes.
So, even without knowledge of Islam, people should make a conclusion that Islam is the source of problem, it must have taught some evil things that makes people behave badly. And it is indeed Islam teaches evil things.The west should wake up from its stupidity.

If America doesn’t get tough on terrorists, then we deserve everything that’s coming.
When are apathetic Americans going to remove their heads from the sand and wake up???????
There are a lot of people in this nation that have created cells of terrorists just waiting to act.
I read recently that in Poland, the military is shooting those adherents to the religion of peace, as they try to infiltrate the border.
