Summary
Federal officials arrested Anas Said, 28, in Houston for allegedly planning a terrorist attack and supporting ISIS.
Charged with attempting to provide material support to the group, Said reportedly created ISIS propaganda, considered targeting U.S. military personnel, and researched synagogues and the Israeli Consulate in Houston.
He allegedly expressed intent to kill supporters of Israel and “proponents of Israel.” Federal documents show Said had been posting pro-ISIS content since 2017.
His lawyer argues the indictment lacks evidence of actual terrorism planning, focusing on his propaganda activities. The FBI continues to investigate.
Ah, I see we’re back to ‘terrorist’ now that Trump won and non-white people are doing it again.
Well once we hand our Defense Department and intelligence apparatus to Russian operatives, we are going to get a lot less safe.
