The whole family are hardline adherents of Sharia. The Washington Post reported that “the hearing concluded on an acrimonious note, as two of Chhipa’s brothers, who had been sitting in the courtroom gallery for the proceedings, refused to stand for the judge as he exited the courtroom. Novak told the deputy U.S. marshals not to press the issue because Chhipa’s family had registered a ‘religious objection’ to the practice during his trial last year.”
They sat because they don’t acknowledge the authority of American law, but only of Sharia. How long can a nation survive the presence within it of a large number of people who have no respect for its established laws and institutions?
“Springfield man who raised funds for Islamic State group sentenced to federal prison,” by Angela Woolsey, InsideNoVa, May 9, 2025:
A Springfield man will serve more than three decades in prison for his reported efforts to collect and send funds to the Islamic State group.
Mohammed Azharuddin Chhipa, 35, was sentenced to 30 years and four months in prison Wednesday by a U.S. District Court judge in Alexandria after a jury convicted him in December on multiple charges of providing material support to a terrorist organization.
“Those who fund and facilitate terror bear the same responsibility as those who carry out attacks,” U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia Erik Siebert said in a press release from the Department of Justice. “Mohammed Chhipa knowingly and persistently collected and provided a considerable amount of money to fund the violence of an organization bent on forcing their extremist ideology on others. That he did so from a nation that holds individual freedom sacrosanct is unconscionable.”
According to prosecutors, Chhipa sent more than $185,000 to members of the Islamic State group from October 2019 through October of 2022….
According to the DOJ, Chhipa solicited donations for the Islamic State group through social media with the goal of supporting its fighters and helping female members escape prison camps. After collecting the funds either electronically or in person, he converted the cash to bitcoin and transferred it to bank accounts in Turkey, where it was then smuggled to militants in Syria.
Chhipa was ultimately arrested after meeting an undercover FBI agent multiple times in 2021 and 2022 to accept funds “earmarked for a Syrian woman and Islamic State group member known as Umm Dujanah,” the Associated Press reported from the weeklong trial in December.
According to the AP, lawyers representing Chhipa argued during the trial that the FBI’s operation followed a decade of baseless investigation and “played on his clear desire to find a wife by using undercover operatives who, among other ruses, pretended to be marriage brokers or even a willing bride.”…

It would be easier to list the ‘slim who don’t support I.S.

Can’t believe it. A correct sentence handed down by the U.S. Court for The Eastern District of Virginia. Virginia is usually a patsy for Islamic nut jobs who seem to flock to Virginia to establish Islamic schools, Mosques and even conducted military training in that state ( and also N. Carolina). This is hopefully the first of many other decisions to treat Muslim terrorists as who they are – namely, terrorists.
JS says
Virginia was one of the first states that I’m aware of that became a hotbed of Islamic buildup even before 911. Their numbers became so great that they spread out and after Obama and Biden they’re in every state by what’s possibly millions upon millions.
They’re also many in Kentucky and converting many that are… let’s just say, not the brightest bulb in the pack. There are many more states that are infested with these radicals but I’m too tired for lists.

The fbi gave him a “warning” but “let him off” long before he was arrested.
Just looking at his photo, I have to wonder what woman would want to spend even a moment, a nanosecond, in his presence? Not to mention the fact he was willingly funding terror.
sporticus says
The black niqab is a Muslim woman’s lingerie and the light bulb in the bedroom is always broken. That’s her only buffer, because Allah, who is always refered to as “He”, will never come to save her from her rotten fate.
JS says
I feel nothing for their women. They complain about these men so rarely, but when they do they still praise their all ah who created rules for men to treat these ignorant women as they do.
JS says
What about his breath? Nothing can cure that. Look at this guy. Also, does anyone wonder when and how he was permitted into the US? These are questions we should be asking.
Roman Gladiator says
I thought the same prior to reading your comment. Too many of the men look like him! Ugh
Alkflaeda says
I only noticed recently that the Qur’an is addressed in its entirety to men – women read of its requirements so that they know what will provoke disciplinary intervention from their men, and what expectations they are delegated by their menfolk to relay to their children. From God’s intervention on Sarah’s behalf when she was co-opted into a harem, to the daughters of Zelophehad’s inheritance, to the role of Queen Esther, Jesus’ attention to the woman at the well and his championship of Mary of Bethany’s desire to learn, and Paul’s appreciation of Phoebe, Lois and Eunice, amongst others, the Bible presents a much more even-handed approach (which also makes me think that the oft-cited “misogynist” strictures in Paul’s epistles probably had a lot to do with lack of literacy amongst Gentile women, which would necessarily restrict their involvement in leadership and teaching roles).
somehistory says
Yes, indeed, God and His Son are fair and just to both men and women and show such great love for the children. “God is Love,” wrote the Apostle John.

So true, Alkflaeda and Somehistory. Islam hates and despises women and girls.
Sick Of It says
Look at that Thing! That is what so called leaders who are there to better your lives have doomed you with as a neighbor.

He was trying to buy a wife from a terrorist camp? I can’t see how a lobotomy would have any affect on the guy.
JDow says
Rather than asking rhetorical questions about how can a nation survive (whatever) why not ask “What can be done about (whatever)?” What can we do to remove (whatever) as a factor in our lives?
And I am not sure it is not way way too late to do what is required to mitigate the threat some Muhammadans present to our freedom, peace, and quiet. So what else can we try? Should I wear a T-Shirt with a picture of a man in a turban with the phrase “He never existed” emblazoned over the picture?

Mohammed Azharuddin Chhipa:
The stench is overwhelming – just by looking at his picture.
