A U.S. Air Force veteran has been charged with trying to join ISIS after watching their online propaganda videos, the Department of Justice announced today. Tairod Nathan Webster Pugh, 47, was indicted by a grand jury in Brooklyn on Monday for allegedly attempting to provide material support to the group and attempting to obstruct justice. Pugh is an American citizen who previously served as an avionics instrument system specialist in the Air Force. His most recent address according to property records was in Bridgeton, New Jersey. Authorities say he tried to join ISIS earlier this year, weeks after being fired from his job as an airplane mechanic in Kuwait.

Also, wasn’t 0bama loathe to communicate that we are “at war” with ISIS? So if the enemy hasn’t been officially designated as an enemy, does treason apply?

First question:

So, when did Tairod Nathan Webster Pugh become a Muslim and reject his American citizenship?

Hemorrhoid Nathan Webster Pugh? What kind of name is “Hemorrhoid”? It’s a good name for a terrorist, almost as good as “More Ham, Ed”, but it’s no wonder he didn’t fit in with the real world.

I thought it would still be treasonous if he were a never enlisted private civilian.
