An Islamic State video just released in late December showed the
White House being attacked. Clearly this is something the Islamic State
very much wanted to do. Meanwhile, “a community member” contacted law
enforcement on Hasher Jallal Taheb, and that’s good. Imagine what might
have happened if this person hadn’t done so. But where did Hasher learn
his understanding of Islam? Will anyone be investigating that? Or will
they wave it away with “he was radicalized on the Internet”?
Taheb “planned to use explosive devices and an anti-tank rocket to carry out his attack.”
“Breaking: Cumming man threatened to attack White House, authorities say,” AJC, January 16, 2019:
Federal authorities on Wednesday announced a terrorist case against a metro Atlanta resident accused of plotting to destroy the White House and other Washington D.C. government buildings._______________________________________________________________

The criminal complaint, which accuses him of plotting to destroy a government building, said a community member contacted law enforcement in March 2018 to say that Taheb had become radicalized….
Taheb allegedly said he planned to travel to “hijra,” a term said to refer to Islamic State territory and he was selling the car to fund the trip. But he didn’t have a passport.

A man from Georgia has been arrested in a terror plot that allegedly
targeted federal buildings–including The White House, according to WALB News.He was hoping to use an anti-tank rocket to take out attacks targets like the White House and the Statue of Liberty, but it seems he never obtained the weapon.
The suspect is Hasher Jallal Taheb, of Cumming, Georgia. Taheb appeared in a federal court in Atlanta Wednesday.
In March 2018, a member of the community had reported to local law enforcement that he had “become radicalized, changed his name and made plans to travel abroad,” the complaint states.
In December, Taheb allegedly showed an undercover operative a hand-drawn diagram of the White House and asked for help with obtaining weapons and explosives for the attack, the complaint states. The FBI traded Taheb weapons and explosives in exchange for his car, and he was arrested after the exchange.
“He said the group would fight to the end and make it a big bang,” according to the document.
Via ABC News Go:
On Dec. 14, Taheb allegedly “broadened
his prospective targets,” indicating that he wished to attack the
Washington Monument, the Lincoln Memorial and a “specific synagogue” in
the Washington, D.C. area, which was not named, according to the
complaint. He also discussed the need for a “base” where they could
regroup and “give a speech to motivate people” and show clips of
“oppressed Muslims,” the document states.
The next day, he allegedly uploaded a
40-page manifesto he authored to Google Docs, which stated the
importance of “defensive jihad” and included justifications for
“creating and leading his group to conduct violent attacks,” according
to the complaint. He also created a group chat with the informant and
undercover agent, where he would allegedly discuss his plans to attack
in the following weeks.
Taheb allegedly met with the undercover
agent on Jan. 9 and provided him with two backpacks, stating that he
wanted to obtain the weapons within the next week and travel to
Washington, D.C., the complaint states. Taheb allegedly told the
undercover agent that the explosives would be inside the backpacks and
would be detonated with cell phones.
Sounds like a stellar citizen.________________________________________________________
