Michigan man accused of helping Islamic State for six years

DETROIT (CN) — A Michigan man has been federally charged with attempting to provide support for the Islamic State terrorist group in Iraq and Syria and possessing a destructive device, the Department of Justice announced Tuesday.
In an indictment filed in early October and unsealed Tuesday in the Eastern District of Michigan, Aws Mohammed Naser was charged with providing material support to terrorists and being a felon in possession of a destructive device.
Few details of Naser’s conduct were revealed in the indictment or a Justice Department press release, but Assistant U.S. Attorney Kevin Mulcahy wrote in the charging document that between December 2011 and October 2017, Naser attempted to provide resources, including himself, to the Islamic State knowing that it was a terrorist organization.
The 34-year-old from the Detroit suburb of Westland also allegedly possessed a destructive device – a broad category that includes several types of firearm as well as explosive devices – in October 2017, despite a prior felony conviction that prohibited him from doing so.
Details on Naser’s background are also sparse, but Michigan court records show he was convicted in 2014 for an armed robbery committed early in 2013.
‘There is no such thing as a Palestinian state. There is only Islam.
The political system in Islam is a caliphate.’

Here yet again we see that Islam is at the basis of the “Palestinian” conflict and is constantly invoked by those who support the “Palestinian jihad.” This guy is arguing against a “Palestinian” state not because he is pro-Israel, but because he believes that the entire Islamic umma should be united into a single caliphate, and that nation-states are infidel abominations. This has been the consistent position of Islamic leaders for years, while Western “experts” steadfastly ignore the role of Islam in the Israeli / “Palestinian” as well as in all issues involving Muslim countries. This is foolish and short-sighted in the extreme, and stems from the falsehoods that foreign policy analysts have been told about Islam and Sharia by Muslim Brotherhood-linked groups in the U.S.
Al-Aqsa Mosque Address By Palestinian Islamic Scholar Issam Amira: Palestinian Nationalism Is A ‘Heretical Innovation’ Created By The Sykes-Picot Agreement To Prevent The Rise Of Islam, Which Is The Only Valid Identity, Political System
MEMRI,
November 11, 2022:
Palestinian Hizb ut-Tahrir-affiliated Islamic scholar Issam Amira said in a sermon at the Al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem that any form of Arab nationalism, including Palestinian nationalism, is a “colonial heretical innovation” that is the product of the Sykes-Picot Agreement….
Issam Amira: “The fact is that we do not belong to Palestine. On Judgement Day, nobody will summon the Palestinians to enter [Paradise] from a specific door. Palestinian citizenship neither unites nor separates us. This national colonial heretical innovation was created by Sykes and Picot, who divided us into Palestinians, Jordanians, Algerians, Sudanese, and so on. A century has passed, and we are still suffering from this national-based division. This division is rotten. It stinks. Anyone who says that there is a Palestinian camp is deluding himself and does not know how things work.
[…]
“What is our identity? Muslims. We are Muslims.”
[…]
“Jordan is null and void. Egypt is null and void. Algeria where [the Palestinian factions met] is null and void. They are all harmful and artificial mini-states that rose on the ruins of the Islamic Caliphate, which was destroyed a century ago.
He's referring to the Ottoman Empire which was broken up after the 1st World War. The Empire began with Turkish tribes in the 14th century and reached its maximum in 1683. After WWI, only Turkey remained.
[…]
“Even if they establish their state on Palestine’s soil in its entirety, without a single Jew in it, they will be considered to be misguided and to be leading [people] astray, just like Jordan, Egypt, Algeria, Sudan, Indonesia, and Pakistan. There is no such thing as a Palestinian state. There is only Islam. The political system in Islam is a caliphate.
“When a Muslim calls for a nation-state, it is a disaster. A Muslim who says ‘I am Palestinian, my blood is Palestinian, and I want a Palestinian state’ is misguided and lost.
“National sentiment is not part of shari’a law. It emerged from the Sykes-Picot Agreement and has nothing to do with Islam. National sentiment means affiliation with soil. If the Prophet Muhammad was affiliated with soil, he would have remained in Mecca. Therefore, national sentiment and pan-Arabism are deplorable terms that cannot coexist with Islam. We are Muslim and nothing else.
“The Islamic land covers 20 million square kilometers. Listen to this: 20 million square kilometers! I’m talking just about the land, without the sea. Historical Palestine in its entirety is just 27 or 28 thousand square kilometers.
“Colonialism has filled our heads with filth. ‘My homeland Kuwait, you have proposed to glory…’ ‘Palestinian, oh Palestinian…’ ‘Kuwait comes first,’ ‘Egypt above all,’ ‘Oh Jordan, our Jordan whatever…’ Fairuz slaughtered us [with her songs about Palestine], which are as empty as can be.
“What is going through your mind and through the minds of the Muslims? This is all garbage that the infidels have instilled in our heads because they do not want this [Islamic] nation to rise.”

November 17, 2022:
According to PUNCH, a military source on Wednesday said that the terrorists killed 10 of the victims after accusing them of witchcraft while five others were reportedly killed for attempting to surrender to the military.
The source said the leader of Boko Haram in charge of Mandara Hills, Gwoza General Area and parts of Cameroon, Ali Ngulde, allegedly ordered the killing of the victims.
He said, “The story you heard that they killed 20 women is not true; they killed 15, and they are their members; they killed them four days ago.
“10 of the women were killed by the insurgents after accusing them of witchcraft while five other women were killed for attempting to surrender to the military.
“The leader of Boko Haram in charge of Mandara Hills, Gwoza General Area and parts of Cameroon, Ali Ngulde, ordered their killing.”
It was learnt that Boko Haram combatants had been surrendering in sizable numbers due to an intensified air and ground military attacks in Sambisa Forest, Gaizuwa, Mantara and Mandara Hills, all in Bama and Gwoza local government areas.
I wonder where they get their gasoline or diesel from?
Burkina Faso: Muslims dynamite bridges, attack supply convoy,
causing mass starvation in town full of refugees
NOV 19, 2022 3:00 PM
BY ROBERT SPENCER
The town of Djibo’s population swelled to 300,000 from 100,000. The 200,000 are refugees from al-Qaeda and Islamic State attacks elsewhere. And so now the jihadis are starving out the place where these people fled for refuge. This is reminiscent of ninth-century Islamic accounts of how Muhammad exiled two of Medina’s three Jewish tribes, the Banu Nadir and Banu Qaynuqa. They settled in the oasis of Khaybar. Later, Muhammad stormed Khaybar and massacred the refugees there.
‘Nothing To Eat’: People Starve In Burkina Faso Town
Under Jihadist Blockade

November 17, 2022
Jihadists have dynamited bridges and mounted deadly attacks against supply convoys, blockading Burkina Faso’s northern town of Djibo and leaving its people destitute.
“The situation is catastrophic in Djibo,” said Idrissa Badini, a spokesman for a group of civil society organisations in the wider Soum province.
“Hunger is at such a level that it is starting to kill children and the elderly.”
Last month alone, 15 people died of hunger in the town, he said. But there were “probably more victims”, as other cases had likely gone unreported.
According to the United Nations, dozens of places in Burkina Faso face conditions similar to those in Djibo. Nearly a million people are living in besieged areas in the north and east of the country.
Burkina Faso has been struggling with a jihadist insurgency since 2015. Over the last few years, Djibo has become a hub for the region’s internally displaced people, forced to flee violence involving groups linked to Al-Qaeda and the so-called Islamic State organisation.
The town’s population has tripled to an estimated 300,000. But the blockade is now pushing some of those displaced to flee a second time, southwards to the capital Ouagadougou.
“Deprived of water, food, medicine and phone signal, many are leaving Djibo on foot, at night, in the hope of reaching areas they can still reach,” an aid worker told AFP on condition of anonymity.
On the road between Djibo and the town of Bourzanga, residents described seeing the wreckage of vehicles hit by landmines.
Several supply convoys have recently been attacked on the road.
In September, 35 people died when their truck was blown up by a mine. There were children among the dead.
Another attack on a convoy killed 11 soldiers….
The World Food Programme says around 3.5 million people in Burkina Faso will need emergency food aid in the coming months.
