Failed terror attack in NYC

[Anonymous]

Is this just being ignored here?
These two will be federally charged......

Two young men - Emir Balat, age 18 and Ibrahim Kayumi, age 19 - threw two explosive devices at a protest on Sunday. Fortunately, neither detonated although they were both considered highly functional IEDs. Balat’s parents are both from Turkey & were naturalized into US citizens in 2017, while Ibrahim Kayumi’s parents are both from Afghanistan. Mom naturalized in 2009, dad naturalized in 2004.

Video footage shows at least one of them yelling, "Allahu Akbar" at the protest while throwing the device.

NYPD also found an additional device in a car belonging to one of the suspects yesterday.

Some of the information provided by Jessica Tisch at the press conference moments ago:

While in police custody, bodycam footage shows that Balat said: “All praise is due to Allah lord of all worlds! I pledge my allegience [sic] to the Islamic State. Die in your rage yu [sic] kuffar!”
“this isn’t a religion that just stands when people talk about the blessed name of the prophet . . . We take action!”

From the criminal complaint: “BALAT wrote on a piece of paper that he ‘pledge[d] allegience to the Islamic State’ and KAYUMI stated, in substance and in part, that he was affiliated with ISIS; watched ISIS propaganda on his phone; and was partly inspired to carry out his actions that day by ISIS. BALAT additionally stated that they wanted to carry out an attack bigger than the Boston Marathon bombing, which BALAT noted caused only ‘three
deaths.’”

From what I saw of the video of their attack, they just seemed like incompetent kids.

Well, actions like theirs never benefit Muslims but they do fuel Muslim-phobia. We'll never know who brainwashed them, someone who is for Islam or against it. Some times there is some truth to conspiracy theories.

It’s terrifying what could have happened if the bombs exploded. They could have killed and injured 100s of people. This could have been thr worst terrorism attack on America since 9/11. I don’t think people realize the gravity of the situation.

And these were radicalized Islamists teenagers who ironically parents lived in 2.5 million dollar worth homes in Pennsylvania.

Did you post about Mamdani’s residence being attacked by white supremacists, OP? These two seemed to try to attack those white supremacists, not a city mayor.

They think that Neo Nazis are the good guys.

There were no white supremacists who tried to attack the mayor. None.

OP is a Trump Troll.
Trump WANTS terrorist attacks. He WANTS a 9/11 to allow him to declare a national emergency and take over the 2026 elections in which it's expected the GOP will lose very big.

I watched the video. This is two overly enthusiastic kids who did something really stupid.

Go away OP.

Good grief. Have you heard what they said? Have you heard what they did? Have you heard any of the evidence they have on these guys or the statements they made?
These weren’t two kids playing a prank, fool.

“Defense lawyers for the teens indicated there is complicated stuff in the defendants' personal lives and that they may request bail at a later date.”

They’re adults. We’re all living with complicated stuff. No bail. Prosecute them as terrorists. Life sentence.

Two idiots not involved in any terrorist organization. Now they go to jail as failures.
