Jordanian national arrested in Houston allegedly planned attack on Jews

A “radical” Jordanian national living in Texas was allegedly plotting an attack on Houston’s Jewish community before he was arrested on gun charges.

Sohaib Abuayyash, 20, had been studying how to build bombs and posted about his support for killing Jews, federal officials claim.

“He has viewed specific and detailed content posted by radical organizations on the internet, including lessons on how to construct bombs or explosive devices,” FBI Director Chris Wray told the Senate Homeland Security Committee, though he declined to identify Abuayyash by name.

“And that defendant has made statements to others that support the killing of individuals of particular religious faiths.”

Abuayyash even allegedly made a direct reference in one social media post about an event in Houston for the Jewish community, according to court documents obtained by CNN.

It did not include details about the target and time of the alleged attack.

Abuayyash is behind bars on charges of unlawful possession of a firearm by someone with a non-immigrant visa, and US Magistrate Judge Christina Bryan has ruled he should remain detained pending trial.

She wrote in court documents that Abuayyash spoke of committing martyrdom in support of a religious cause and made statements “that he wants to go to Gaza to fight,” according to documents also obtained by CBS News.

“He has viewed specific and detailed content posted by radical organizations on the Internet, including lessons on how to construct bombs or explosive devices,” she wrote.

An affidavit filed Oct. 19 in the US District Court for the Southern District of Texas also says Abuayyash “has been in direct contact with others who share a radical mindset, has been conducting physical training and has trained with weapons to possibly commit an attack.”

Houston sure is diverse. Lots of people from the Middle East, China and cartel members.

“...And Muslims everywhere march in support....”

And don’t forget, Muslims throughout the world marched and celebrated on 9/11.

There is no co-existing between Jew/Christian and Islam. We have to love them, they have to hate us.

With Biden’s open borders 9-11 was a calling card.

And all the while our current president wants to disarm us so that we do not have the capability to defend our homeland. This was one of the reasons that the Japanese did not invade the US Mainland.

Doubt it makes them upset in any way as I worked for a Jordanian. Didn’t bother him or any of the other Palestinians a bit.
