Authorities have arrested a 26-year-old man connected to the Islamic State (ISIS) who was allegedly plotting a terrorist attack in San Francisco over the Christmas holiday.
The FBI reports that they arrested Everitt Aaron Jameson, a truck driver from Modesto, California. He referred to himself as Abdallah adu Everitt ibn Gordon. He is charged specifically with attempting to supply support to a foreign terrorist organization and he has posted pro-ISIS and pro-terrorist posts on Facebook.
His intended target was San Francisco’s famous Pier 39. Jameson was apparently unknowingly chatting with an undercover FBI agent and was arrested earlier this week. A search of his home found several firearms as well as fireworks.
The San Francisco police released a statement Friday afternoon:
"The San Francisco Police Department was notified by the FBI about this investigation several days ago and we remain in contact with our local, state and federal partners as this case proceeds. The safety of all San Francisco residents and visitors is our top priority. As we have stated in previous weeks, during the holiday season the public will notice an increased law enforcement presence in shopping corridors and at our City's attractions. As always, "if you see something, say something." We encourage the community to contact officers or 9-1-1 to report suspicious activity."
The 26-year-old would-be terrorist told the FBI that he was ready and willing to die and that Christmas was a perfect day to commit his attack. He also said he chose Pier 39 because he "had been there before and knew it was a heavily crowded area." He added that he could "funnel" a large amount of people into a tiny space for mass casualties.
He told the FBI informant that he was inspired by an ISIS-style terrorist attack on October 31 in NYC that killed 8 people as well as the 2015 Islamic-extremist shooting in San Bernardino.
This story will be updated as more details come in.
Most of us would not call this ISIS rectum a Marine.
McKinney said Jameson attended Marine basic training “in or about” June 2009 and “graduated several months later.” Jameson trained as a sharpshooter, but was later discharged for failing to disclose a history of asthma.
I agree. San Franciscans were probably arranging to be blown up to show their solidarity with ISIS’s hatred of the US.
“I doubt he ever made it to the point where was actually a Marine.”
He was never a Marine!

ISIS fighters do not necessarily require their “servicers” to be female, as this one will find out in prison.
Definitely, but he would’ve volunteered if he was a she.
More innocents who will celebrate Christmas at home with family and friends instead of being identified in a morgue. Congratulations to the due diligence of the agents involved with this wonderful victory!
The piece of camel dung is a convert to the religion of piss. The moment anyone converts, he has rejected his citizenship and joined an organization that works for the violent overthrow of the US government. He needs to be deported to the hellhole of his choice, and all his assets forfeited.
“ibn Gordon”? Scots blue-bloods are becoming jihadis?
the correct name is likely Abdallah abu Everitt ibn Gordon
It is also possible that this kid does not know the proper spelling of the word "abu."
San Francisco????
They should have looked the other way and let this POS have his way with em.
Too many churches follow the forms of religiosity rather than sticking to the teachings of Jesus.
