Afghan national living in the U.S. charged with allegedly plotting an Election Day terrorist attack
Nasir Ahmad Tawhedi, a resident of Oklahoma City, was charged with conspiring to carry out a terrorist attack on behalf of ISIS, according to federal prosecutors.
Waiting for people to call him a hero and a resistance fighter.
I'm waiting to find out that an FBI informant put him onto it like pretty much every 'foiled terrorist plot' in the last 2 decades.
Edit:
After the two advertised the sale of personal property on Facebook last month, the FBI enlisted an informant to respond to the offer and strike up a relationship. The informant later invited them to a gun range, where they ordered weapons from an undercover FBI official.
Yeah, definitely don't look too hard into the role of that 'informant'.
Right? Lemmy eats that shit up. Dumb fuckers.

Tawhedi’s arrest comes amid rising concerns about the potential for political violence surrounding next month's election.
Political violence (from the right) is assured. It's just a shame that we also have to be on the look out for violence from outside forces. Life is awesome, right?
