Accused NC Jihadi Had Facebook Page


The Jawa Report has the goods, including plenty of pics here:

More on the banality of terror. You should read it for the context in understanding the federal indictments against Ziyad Yaghi, Mohammad Omar Aly Hussain, and six others.

At first glance Yaghi's Facebook account seemed so ordinary. Hence why all his friends are shocked, neighbors all describe the ringleader's family as nice people, and the "banality of evil" reference. But on a deeper analysis of "hidden" information, it becomes clear that Yaghi had jihadi aspirations for some time.

I think there's a joke worthy of Jeff Foxworthy here. If the very first thing you write on your Facebook page is ..

Asalamualaikum, if your a mulsim (sic, "Muslim) welcome but if ur a munafiq (arabic: hypocrite) im a kill you

... then you might be a jihadi.

Indeed. Yaghi was also apparenty a paintball enthusiast. Surprise.
