Water finds its own level. So did Joshua Van Haften [2], a pedophile and criminal who converted to Islam and joined ISIS [3].
An American man has been charged with trying to provide support for the Islamic State militant group, the U.S. Justice Department said on Thursday.
Joshua Ray Van Haften, 34, of Madison, Wisconsin, intended to travel to Iraq or Syria to join the group, also known by the acronyms ISIL and ISIS, prosecutors said in a statement.
He added: “I was about to cross to Syria … but I didn’t make it. Hopefully soon though. … I’m tired of this life man.”
Haften was a perfect recruit for ISIS and Islam.
According to online records, Van Haften was convicted of the 2nd Degree sexual assault of a child in 2000 in Rock County, Wisconsin. The incident happened in May 2000. He was sentenced to seven years in prison in the case. The victim was a female.
The Beloit Daily News reported in 1998 that Van Haften was arrested in Beloit, Wisconsin, (above) when he was 17 after pointing a gun at a man who was dating the suspects ex-girlfriend. According to the paper, Van Haften hit the man in the ear with the firearm, disfiguring him. He was charged with substantial battery in the case.
The complaint against Van Haften states that in July 2014, he traveled to Egypt where he got into an argument with a woman because the suspect had been taking pictures of a military facility. She reported him to local police. The cops there went to the U.S. Embassy to reports Van Haften, upon learning of his status as a sex offender, he was deported back to Wisconsin. He had been in North Africa from October 2012-January 2014.
On August 29, 2014, a woman in Madison, Wisconsin, went to police to complain that Van Haften had harassed her 11-year-old son at the capitol building in the city. She says the suspect talked to her son about World War III and going to Syria to fight. When cops eventually went to interview Van Haften about the incident, his former roommate said the he had left the country because [Van Haften] didnt like living in the United States. A friend of Van Haftens told investigators that he heard from the suspect sporadically via text message including one from Turkey that read I figured I would meet people b/c of my sheer knowledge about things & itd be all good, brothers would help me, give me money, facilitate in getting me to Iraq to help take over Baghdad.
So yes, the perfect guy for ISIS.
They will receive him with open arms. He’ll be right at home until they tell him what he’s going to have to do for them.
No such thing as a pedophile according the Muslim belief, as long as the girl is over 9. And a woman’s consent is never necessary, either.
Yeah...typical moslem.
He’ll fit right in.
That is just about the most horrifying thing I have ever read.
How about the story about goat rentals in Washington State? Use your imagination...
Now he can get a preteen “juhadi wife”.
“Hell be right at home until they tell him what hes going to have to do for them.”
A high percentage of “converts” become suicide bombers. According to what I read the Muslims are very adept at forcing this fate on them using a wide variety of tried and successful tactics. The candidates are never left alone. They are surrounded by people who pretend to be their friends. It is, of course, pretense. But if all else fails there is brute force, a locked suicide vest and a remote detonator.
Thank you ever so much.
Think I’ll need a second glass of wine so I can sleep tonight.
lol
OMG...where is the EYE BLEACH? I hope he volunteers to be a suicide bomber. And it goes off in the ISIS camp. Problem solved.
Nut-job Conspiracy Theory Ping!
To get onto The Nut-job Conspiracy Theory Ping List you must threaten to report me to the Mods if I don't add you to the list...
He’ll be right at home.......
To be sure, there's a cage with his name on it when he does make it across.
look up our salvation draweth nigh
