FBI Nabs Kansas Woman Accused of Leading ‘All-Female' ISIS Battalion in Syria
[Breitbart] An American woman, formerly of Kansas, is accused of leading an all-female ISIS battalion in Syria and plotting a "potential future attack" at a U.S. college campus, according to the Justice Department.

U.S. citizen Allison Fluke-Ekren, 42, was previously apprehended in Syria and turned over to FBI custody on Friday, a Saturday release from the Justice Department states. Fluke-Ekren, who goes by many different aliases, is charged with "providing and conspiring to provide material support to ISIS, a designated foreign terrorist organization," and faces up to 20 years in prison if convicted.

The release cites a recently unsealed criminal complaint filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia in 2019, alleging that since Fluke-Ekren left the states for Syria, she partook in numerous terrorism-related activities dating back to at least 2014.

The release states:

These activities allegedly include, but are not limited to, planning and recruiting operatives for a potential future attack on a college campus inside the United States and serving as the appointed leader and organizer of an ISIS military battalion, known as the Khatiba Nusaybah, in order to train women on the use of automatic firing AK-47 assault rifles, grenades and suicide belts. Additionally, Fluke-Ekren allegedly provided ISIS and ISIS members with services, which included providing lodging, translating speeches made by ISIS leaders, training children on the use of AK-47 assault rifles and suicide belts and teaching extremist ISIS doctrine.

The complaint includes accounts from six eye-witnesses who say they observed Fluke-Ekren’s terrorist behavior "from at least 2014 through approximately 2017."

She allegedly told one witness she longed to carry out an attack in the United States. The release states:

#1 U.S. citizen Allison Fluke-Ekren, 42, was previously apprehended in Syria and turned over to FBI custody on Friday....

Been a 'person of interest' for 8 years and the Syrians simply turned her over to the bureau (no reason given) on Friday. Any costs associated with this handover, meals, Lodging, travel, etc

#2 Kansas woman is arrested for 'joining ISIS and leading an all-female battalion that used AK-47 rifles, grenades and suicide belts' in Syria: Prosecutors say she planned to attack a US college campus and a mall

#3 /\ Attack on an empty, leftest, pro-Hamas campus or shuttered shopping mall? Missed the Christmas shopping surge did she? Perhaps a domestic “Pesach” attack in the planning stages? Wat about recent BLM/Antifa activities? Surely the Bureau can do better than that.

Smell still lingering.

My tinfoil hat guess (and only a guess), she was a Klingon source discovered by the Syrians, detained, then sold back to the FBI under the pretext of domestic criminal activity.

I can almost hear the ear piercing, 'memory hole' electronic door klaxon.

#5 OPEN QUESTION: When will we see the Nationwide Arrests of the openly and well-known TRUE Terrorists and their leadership? Along with their international funders, state & DC political co-conspirators?

The Nationally Organized terrorist groups that have repeatedly attacked US Cities and political opposition groups repeatedly.

Causing deaths, murders, serious physical injuries, and $100's of million in private/public property losses?

The well-known US Terrorist groups called:

Anti-FA, & BLM.
