FBI Foils What Could've Been a Horrific Terror Attack in Houston By a Radical Jordanian
Townhall ^ | November 3, 2023 | Matt Vespa

When the threat appeared imminent, the FBI had to move in on the only charge that could stick for now: weapons charges. Sohaib Abuayyash, 20, was planning a massive terror attack targeting Jewish people in the Houston area. He had visited multiple gun ranges in the area and was trying to obtain instructions for bomb-making.

How Abuayyash was able to get firearms is a detail that will be revealed in time, but yes—he shouldn’t have been able to purchase or possess any firearm on a non-immigrant visa. That paperwork expired in 2019, but he’s been allowed to remain on American soil on a work authorization order through 2024. He's also applied for asylum (via NY Post):

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.

Bet the NYT already has a draft article that states that the attack would have been “mostly peaceful”.

The picture shows this guy in what looks like a gun store. The rifle has a price tag on the trigger guard.

That gun store owner will be in bigger trouble than the Jordanian.

Maybe it was a set up as well.

I’m with you. Never let a crisis go to waste, even if we had to create the crisis. I believe there should be a full release of any psychotropic prescriptions, medications, financial investigations for any person the criminal would funnel more hey through.
The PLO tactics from old are being used in our country. #mobocracy

The FBI didn’t used to publicize this kind of stuff. They’d just do their job and keep their mouths shut. Sources and methods and stuff.

If this is legit (have my doubts) whoever was in this guys orbit will be able to backstep into how the FBI pulled it off.

Great job, morons.

Radical Muslim Terrorists take America. Congratulations to those hundreds of Bidenskyyyyyy’s banana boaters who completed those “80 million” mail in banana boat ballots and dumped them in the mail in dumpsters during the dark of night. I’ll bet that “writer’s cramp” was a bear. Daaaaaaaaah O!

The fib needs to do something on occasion to try to salvage its image.

This is a PR move and nothing else.

If it were to the left’s advantage to let it progress, they would have.
