Internet chatter and Oklahoma arrest of alleged would-be IS attacker indicate terror group’s planning
After the FBI arrested an Afghan man in Oklahoma planning an election day shooting on behalf of the Islamic State, the terrorist organization re-entered what has become one of the most chaotic news cycles leading up to a November vote.
Nasir Ahmad Tawhedi, 27, of Oklahoma City admitted to investigators he and a co-conspirator expected to die as IS martyrs as they opened fire on crowds on election day, according to charging documents.
Warnings about IS-sponsored or -inspired attacks in the west have intensified in recent weeks.
Fucking knew this would happen. Right after Biden (not totally his fault) pull out of Afghanistan Oklahoma brought a lot of the people from that region here. I thought “bet some of these people will resent us.” and also wonder if any of them would become terrorist over it. Fuck me if I wasn’t right. Goddamm I need to see if we can vote now and by mail.
