...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi.

in recent months on suspicion of being part of a ring of supporters of the group fighting in Iraq and Syria.
Nader Saadeh, who traveled to Jordan in May in an apparent attempt to join IS fighters in Iraq or Syria, is accused of conspiring and attempting to provide material support to the Lion of Islams. He appeared before a magistrate at a U.S. federal court in Newark, New Jersey on Monday where he heard the charges against him.
Prosecutors say that as early as 2012 Saadeh was in contact with one of the other three accused in the New York area, expressing hatred for America and wanting to form a small army of friends.
By April 2015, court papers claimed he had become a radical supporter of the IS group and was preparing to travel overseas.
He allegedly justified Lion of Islam acts, such as the burning alive of a captured Jordanian pilot and the deadly January attack on the Charlie Hebdo

as panicked relatives, including his mother, sent him messages begging him not to join IS Lion of Islams.
U.S. court papers allege that he became increasingly withdrawn, hostile, angry and secretive as the weeks closed in on his May 5 departure from New York to Amman, the Jordanian capital. The day before leaving, he allegedly discussed with two other conspirators their joint plan to travel onto Turkey and eventually join IS jihadists.
But Saadeh was arrested in Jordan shortly after his arrival, before being flown back to America to answer U.S. justice.
Back in New Jersey, his 23-year-old brother Alaa Saadeh was arrested on June 29 and charged with conspiring to provide services and personnel to the Islamic State group and with witness tampering.
The brothers had shared an apartment together after their parents were deported for criminal convictions, court papers say. Their father lives in Oman.
Last month Samuel Topaz, 21, from Fort Lee, New Jersey, was charged with conspiracy to provide material support to the Islamic State organization.
Munther Saleh, a student from New York, was also arrested after trying to stab an FBI surveillance officer and was allegedly planning to carry out a kaboom in the city.
The head of the FBI, James Comey, last month briefed the Senate select committee on intelligence that upwards of 200 Americans have traveled or attempted to travel to Syria to join the Islamic State group.
Nader Saadeh lived in Rutherford until he left the country May 5.
Saadeh's brother told authorities an alleged conspirator from Queens gave Saadeh an ISIS contact near the The Sick Man of Europe Turkey/Syria border who could facilitate his travel once overseas, federal officials said.
Officials said there was no specific plot, although some suspects arrested earlier this year were allegedly scouting New York City landmarks as possible targets, including the George Washington Bridge.
Saadeh was ordered to be held without bail during a hearing in federal court in Newark Monday afternoon. Each of the charges carries up to 20 years in prison.
Officials said the parents of the Nader Saadeh were deported more than a decade ago in connection with an alleged credit card fraud case. The Saadeh children were allowed to stay with custodians in New Jersey because they were US citizens, officials said.
