“I saw the picture of sharia court established in Falluja. So if I went to Baghdad and went to Falluja from there, could I meet up with ISIS?”“Criminal Complaint,” United States District Court, Southern District of Texas, May 25, 2015, http://www.justice.gov/file/441346/download.

“All I know is that I want to fight fisabillah [jihad].. Who knows how long this fitna [struggle] will last? What if I miss my chance? I don’t want to fight for war booty or for nationalism. I want to just rise the laws of Allah and be a shaheed [individual who dies for Allah] in his cause. I don’t want to be fighting with the wrong group, and so far all I see is ISIS fighting for Khilafah [an Islamic state].”“Criminal Complaint,” United States District Court, Southern District of Texas, May 25, 2015, http://www.justice.gov/file/441346/download.

Fact:

On October 7, 2023, Hamas invaded southern Israel where, in the space of eight hours, hundreds of armed terrorists perpetrated mass crimes of brutality, rape, and torture against men, women and children. In the biggest attack on Jewish life in a single day since the Holocaust, 1,200 were killed, and 251 were taken hostage into Gaza—where 101 remain. One year on, antisemitic incidents have increased by record numbers.
