Despite supporting ISIS, American Taliban jihadist John Walker Lindh gets early release from prison
American Taliban fighter John Walker Lindh will be released from prison next month after agreeing to strict restrictions on his internet use, communications and travel.
Unless Lindh is on 24-hour watch, he can easily violate these restrictions. According to recent court filings obtained by NBC News, Judge T.S. Ellis III has barred Lindh from communicating with anyone online in any language other than English. How can that possibly be enforced?
Lindh also will not be permitted to watch any video content related to terrorism.
But what about videos related to the Islamic teachings that led him to embrace jihad terrorism in the first place?
It would be folly to think that Lindh will not take advantage of any opportunity to violate the conditions of his release: he has expressed support for the Islamic State (ISIS) and advocates for the global jihad. Nonetheless, as Jihad Watch has previously predicted, Lindh will likely become a hero of the Muslim victimhood circuit in the U.S., speaking at CAIR and ISNA conferences, demonizing the United States and slyly recruiting for jihad.
American Taliban fighter John Walker Lindh gets early release from 20-year jail sentence next month but is banned from using internet or travelling overseas, by Snejana Farberov, Daily Mail, April 18, 2019:
American Taliban fighter John Walker Lindh will be released from prison next month after agreeing to strict restrictions on his internet use, communications and travel.
Lindh, 38, will walk out of federal prison in Terre Haute, Indiana, a free man on May 23 after spending 17 years behind bars.
Lindh was among a group of Taliban fighters who were captured by US forces in November 2001, just months after the September 11 attacks and the beginning of the war in Afghanistan.
Under the conditions of his release, the California native will not be allowed to own an internet-capable device, such as a smartphone or a tablet, without permission from his probation officer.
Lindh also will not be permitted to watch any video content related to terrorism, and his probation officer will be able to keep tabs on his Internet use.
According to recent court filings obtained by NBC News, Judge T.S. Ellis III has barred Lindh from communicating with anyone online in any language other than English.
While on probation for the next three years, Lindh will be required to undergo mental health counseling and he wont be allowed to travel outside the US without the courts consent.
He wakes everyone up every morning with that Call To Prayer BS.
He didn’t mellow AT ALL:
He got worse.
That was the basic gist from an article I read about a month ago.
What do they think, releasing him from prison?!
He should have gone to the electric chair, not released to try another attack.
I hope whomever decided to release him, becomes one of his victims.
[I hope whomever decided to release him, becomes one of his victims.]
Now he can run for Congress as a Democrat.
This is like restricting level 3 sex offenders from using the internet. They just go to public libraries for internet access.
I am surprised at the judge who approved of this flimsy, flabby, unenforceable list of rules for John.Lindh.
I’m pretty sure that this Judge T.S. Ellis III is the same Judge Ellis who heard the case against Paul Manafort, and at times seemed openly skeptical of Mueller’s accusations.
I would have expected a far more realistic plan for Lindh.
I expect J. Lindh has already made plans for revenge.
Big plans.
BTTT!
When is his rap album coming out?

Someone connected to the 9-11 attack borrowed Nick Berg’s laptop.
Therefore, IMHO, every other prison inmate who crossed paths with him should get an additional 10-years added to their time!
If not, he should be "touchable".
So his probation officer is planning on moving in with him? Because we all know that probation officers are way understaffed, especially these days when crime has increased so much. Realistically, he’ll be lucky to find time to call him for 5 minutes a week, let alone monitor him to the extent of the judge’s orders.
I think a judge has to go along with the parole board decisions, whether he likes it or not. The good news -— no way is this creep going to comply with the terms the judge set forth, so he should be back in prison in no time.
Reagan appointee, presided over Manafort’s trial, was very critical of the Mueller team.
I can’t believe this!
Send him to hell. My son was serving in the 82nd on 911. I thought America would wake up. But within a week it was obvious that the left would continue to rot the body from within. There’s only one solution to this mess and it ain’t gonna be pretty.
