UNDERCOVER FBI AGENTS HELPED AUTISTIC TEEN PLAN TRIP TO JOIN ISIS
The Intercept ^ | 01/10/2024 | Murtaza Hussein

More details may emerge on the circumstances of Mashkoor’s ill-fated attempt to join ISIS, but the facts as laid out in the complaint are hallmarks of terrorism prosecutions based on FBI stings: a young man with developmental disabilities, already on the police’s radar due to mental health episodes and conflicts with family, groomed as a minor over a long period by a group of undercover FBI agents. Mashkoor’s case also follows a pattern of FBI sting operations in which a teenager is arrested shortly after their 18th birthday. As in similar cases, the court documents suggest that Mashkoor was limited in his ability to execute a terrorist plot on his own.

How do you solve crimes if there are none to solve?

Easy! Recruit people to commit more crimes!

It should be noted that U.K. hospitals for ‘developmentally disabled’ children are jam packed with the inbred offspring of non-Anglo brits.

See the Whitmer case for a prime example. Despicable.

Gotta admit, phonying up pretend cases beats having to work to uncover real ones. Starting to think the FBI’s new agent course on Entrapment includes a major section on “How To.”

Didn’t watch the new woke FBI show, wonder if it’s still on?

Just think of it as a public service, helping out a handicapped kid.

NOT the Feral Bureau of Instigation.

The right never cared until J6 happened. .Gov has been doing bad stuff for decades, the FBI more so than others. They have been entrapping people for decades.
