A suspected ISIS member was arrested in connection with the Jan. 1 attack on Bourbon Street that killed 14 people and injured at least 57 others, Iraq's judiciary said Sunday.
Following a request from the U.S. for assistance in the investigation, Iraq’s Supreme Judicial Council said the individual “was arrested for inciting the Jan. 2025 truck attack in the United States," according to Al Arabiya News, a Saudi state-owned international Arabic news channel.
The unnamed suspect is “a member of the external operations office of the Daesh terrorist organization" — the Arabic acronym for the Islamic State group known ISIS. Authorities said the suspect will be prosecuted in Iraq under the country’s anti-terrorism laws.
The suspected terrorist attack was committed by Shamsud-Din Jabbar, a 42-year-old Texas citizen, U.S. Army veteran and convert to Islam. He drove a rented Ford F-150 truck bearing an ISIS flag into a crowd of revelers on Bourbon Street in the early morning hours of New Year's Day.

Media dropped that story like a hot rock.
Though we may never know his motivation.
The perpetrator obviously had to have had a helper of some kind.
Biden’s illegal strikes again.
FYI, for those who don’t have everything memorized, on January 1, 2025, at approximately 3:15 a.m. CST, a man drove a pickup truck into a crowd on Bourbon Street in New Orleans, killing 14 people and injuring at least 57 others, including two police officers (Google AI Overview).
He was just doing what his fictional moon deity and his pedophile prophet said to do.
There would be a DoorDaesh joke in there somewhere, but this is such a disgusting terrorist attack that no jokes are worth telling here.
I would say that someday, someone will ram a vehicle into a crowd in order to promote MAGA, but it will NEVER HAPPEN unless it is false flag. Our enemy is so obvious that the left has to protect it in order to let it continue its nation-destroying work.
That tells us all we need to know about their worldview.
Was he on the FBIs radar?
Christianity: Love your enemies.
Islam: Kill the infidel. Cut off their necks. Run them down at high speed in a Ford truck. Blow them up, preferably a large crowd including children. Kill, kill, kill!
Islam is incompatible with peace and civilization.
Exactly.
Authorities said the suspect will be prosecuted in Iraq under the country’s anti-terrorism laws.

that is interesting, how will this go?
Investigators believe he had recently become radicalized and spoke of “the war between the believers and the disbelievers,” according to the FBI.
but officially, he acted alone...............
or “Known to Law Enforcement”?
How will the US respond to this heinous act by ISIS? It is very important for others to understand the horrible harm and pain that will come to any terrorist who harms an American.
The creep ruined my plans to take my daughter to New Orleans this spring. She thinks it’s too dangerous there.
Our family went to visit my grandmother every Easter vacation and I love the city. My grandmother ran a beautiful little inn there right on the park.. New owners now and it’s called Park View Inn. My dad knew the owner of Antoine’s Restaurant, probably best food in the USA, so we ate there too. It’s still there. In a sense, New Orleans is the home of my heart.
The Creels sold the Park View?
Wow, I wished I’d know all of that before I visited New Orleans a few years ago. The South has hidden treasures. I love the South.
