Pakistani-born Queens teen's 'ISIS plot to drop bombs into traffic and stab innocent pedestrians at World's Fair Marina'
2019-09-01
Another clever lad who developed his entire plan with the help of his BFF undercover agent. Clearly the rank and file of the FBI are engaged in useful work despite the shenanigans by senior management. It remains to be seen how surprised mom and pop will be, given that his mother was photographed in full black regalia, including niqab.

#8  Or... Dron found the family I was thinking of. I think I did confuse them with the Khadrs, because there was a great deal of bedwetting up north over the poor baby's stay in the world's most exclusive tropical resort.

#6  Or Safiqur Islam Chowdhury alias Showa Mia to close friends and family, father of Tamim Chowdhury - the mastermind of the Holey Artisan Bakery attack in Dhaka, 2016. Yupp, the family lives in Ontario. Son-in-law Jamil is in pharmaceuticals, a brother works in a Qatari bank.

#4  He is the only Chudhary in the archives, Rob Nor do we have any Canadian Chaudhury or Chaudhary. There was a Canadian family, the youngest of whose members languished in GITMO, though I don’t remember the name. Are you perhaps thinking of this from 2016?

#1  Arrest and trial, then a 5 year sentence. In jail he meets up with the guys that know better how to accomplish his fantasies, obtains the skills and support really required for it. In 2026, we will read of an attack, maybe in midtown Manhattan featuring the same fucker.

And the report will state ; 'Awais Chaudhary had been flagged since his conviction in an extremist plot back in 2019. The FBI's counter-terror network has a detailed file... he has been under the radar..' more meaningless shit like that.
