Mohammed Elshinawy, 33, has been jailed for 20 years after he admitted accepting payments to support an attack by the terror group.

n court heard Elshinawy, of Edgewood, Maryland, received payments totalling $8,700 (about £6,200) from a Welsh company.
According to a Department of Justice news release issued on March 30 “Elshinawy conspired with others to knowingly provide material support and resources to Isis”.
The statement continued: “From February 2015 through about December 11, 2015, in Maryland and elsewhere, Elshinawy conspired with others to provide material support and resources, including personnel, services (including means and methods of communication), and financial services, to Isis.
“Elshinawy and his co-conspirators utilised various methods of secret communication in order to conceal their criminal association and activities from law enforcement.
“As a part of the conspiracy Elshinawy expressed his support for an Islamic caliphate and his belief in the legitimacy of Isis.
“In addition he expressed his hope that Isis would be victorious and its enemies defeated and discussed his readiness to travel to live in the Islamic State.
“In various other conversations Elshinawy pledged his allegiance to Isis, described himself as its soldier, committed to making violent jihad, and asked that others convey his message of loyalty to Isis leadership.
“Elshinawy also received payments from a foreign company based in the United Kingdom. The payments, which totaled approximately $8,700, were to be used by Elshinawy to fund a terrorist attack in the United States.
“In interviews with FBI agents in July 2015, in an effort to conceal and minimise his criminal involvement with Isis, Elshinawy provided false information regarding the total amount of money he had received from ISIS operatives and claimed his intent was to defraud ISIS of funds.
“Throughout his interviews Elshinawy mischaracterised the true nature and extent of his association with Isis operatives and the support he had provided to Isis.”
Elshinawy will now serve 20 years in prison followed by 15 years of supervised release for conspiracy to support Isis, providing and attempting to provide support to Isis, terrorism financing, and making false statements in connection with a terrorism matter.
Last August FBI documents revealed Pontypridd businessman Siful Sujan financed Islamic State plots in the United States.
The 31-year-old. who left Wales for Syria in July 2014 and became a computer hacker for IS, was killed in an air strike near Raqqah in December 2015.Following his death a Pentagon spokesman was quoted as saying the terror group had “lost a key link between networks”.
Sujan was alleged to have used companies based in Wales to send military-grade surveillance equipment to Spain and to an address in Turkey close to the Syrian border and to transfer money to an Isis supporter in the US.
FBI documents revealing the links were released following a court case in Baltimore, Maryland, last year.
Operated out of an office on the Alexandra Gate business park, Tremorfa , Ibacs Electronics Ltd (Ibacs) was directed by Sujan.

The moslem was sent money from a company, based in Wales. …. How Green Was My Valley …. Those darned Welsh … coal miners by day, singers for the queen … but jihadists by night …. Those darned Welsh.
Hi Ach
– “How Green Was My Valley”
– was a straight commie screed about evil capitalist mine owners
– and the poor little ‘helpless’, ‘victimized’ miners
– who would never have earned such a good living herding sheep
– I tried watching it the other day and couldn’t stand it…
Yes, but it was based upon the Richard Llewellyn novel.
He is not to be confused with one of my favorite breed of dogs. Just about the finest for upland game.
Hey Izlamis:
– yes, all true
– but in 1900, UK life expectancy was about 47 anyway
– mortality and morbidity was also quite high
– among people who ran sheep
– falling off steep heights, foot and leg injuries
– frostbite, injuries from saws, axes, and guns
– and starvation
You’re not getting my point
– commies fight with the people who create wealth
– even though GDP/person/day was $1
– for 300,000 years
– until the industrial revolution started in about 1800
– those miners could have worked with owners
– to improve conditions and increase productivity
– but the commies insisted the miners had to kill
– the owners
– hence, the USSR
Britain was the first industrialised country in the world and Manchester the first fully industrialised city. Life was cheap back then If you was poor.
It was either work your bollocks off and be paid a pittance or join the army and fight the natives of some far flung corner of the British empire.
We’ve got it easier now thank fk.
Still working my bollocks off though! ?
Croeso y Cymru!
Wales and the Welsh Marvelous!
Absolutely beautiful country and ever so friendly and tough people, The Original Britons.
Shame that muzrats have infested that lovely land too. Albeit not so many of the vermin.
I’ve had my very best holidays in north wales and if you ever get the chance to visit you will be enchanted by its magic too.
Men of Harlech stop your dreaming’ can’t you see them spear points gleaming’ see them warriors feathers fleaming’ on this battlefield!! (Song of the Welsh borderers in the movie Zulu)
The first time that I saw “Zulu” was fifty-two or fifty-three years ago. My maternal grandparents had a color television …. and I was looking forward to it. So, begging to have Mom or Dad take me into town and see it …. it was to be shown on a Sunday night …. and black and white just wouldn’t do. My brother was far too proud to beg … he always got his way … so I watched it in black and white.
Wow! That just sent the shivers up my spine.
Always loved that film and still have it on dvd. Read a dozen books on that action too.
My son was crazy on that film as a kid and still his favourite today.
The rifles used was the martini Henry and I used to have an original carbine one above the fireplace. (Along with a Waterloo era black Bess)
Fantastic bravery on both sides
And without doubt Real warriors.
Great song too, no doubt be humming it all day!
Before the 1996 big ira bomb in Manchester I used to have a shop in the corn exchange building where I sold books and antiques and I bought the martini off a bloke who walked in the shop with it. The Brown Bess adorned a famous pub wall and after the bomb I arranged to buy it from the pub who were rebuilding. I was very interested in both the battles associated with these fine guns so kept them myself and displayed them proudly along with a couple of swords and vintage ww1 and 2 knives and some large framed Victorian prints of various battles. All the time getting complaints by my mrs that it looks like we’re living in a museum.
I ended up selling both to an antique dealer when I moved south to a smaller house.
Wish I still had them though!
Those darned wives. They just don’t understand what is truly important in life. If I had my way …… of course the kids might not have made it to college …. but … hey.
The kids! My son was great with it, he loved all my old weapons and his pals too but as my daughter got older she was calling me a war monger and all sorts, said I was blood thirsty! Even now she complains about a large framed print of the scotts greys at Waterloo that sits proudly on the wall.
Bloody students!!!
I feel like a much maligned endangered species.
Is that a copy of the one that Lady Butler painted. I’ve seen that one in books … but never a full sized reproduction, much less the original. As far as progeny … the chilluns … I raised my children around firearms. When I used to reload shotshells,the older of my daughters …. at around two, would sit on the floor, next to my bench where I was standing and pick them up and rub them with some cloth that I had laying about. I asked her what she was doing and she responded, “Making shiny, Daddy …” I had ’em on BB guns and then on to .22 rimfires … and even a few rounds of skeet with a 28 gauge … .410 at hand trap thrown ones. My son wasn’t really that interested, although “gun time” meant time with me … So, he reluctantly would come along. Today, he’s an absolute gun lover (not of my type of firearms) .. not to the point of competition or such. However, although I own no semi-automatic center fire rifles, he has AR and AK types … One in some .300 Blackout … He really runs through the brass. But, my daughters, especially the older one … she was a “little girl gun nut” …. NO firearms are even allowed in either daughter’s house. When I visit, my sidearm is locked in the trunk of my car. Freakin’ college can ruin the best of ’em.
Yes the Lady Butler painting, I’ve always been fascinated by that battle and always meant to visit the battlefield when in Belgium but never gotten round to it yet.
Wellington visited it a few years later and was disgusted that the Belgians had messed around with it by building monumental mounds on the British and French positions. My wife went there for the day once when an au pair in Brussels.
As regards the kids.
Family are absolutely everything and we my friend are blessed!
I know that mate. Just having a laugh!
The, son of a camel’ this means war! is a reference
To an old Cofee tv add that I used to like, where one Arab insults another Arab through some misunderstanding cross communication.
Lol I don’t suppose such a commercial crossed the Atlantic.
Thanks! It’s been a bug bear since I first heard of it a month or so ago and I’ve urged everyone on YouTube to complain to the police about it. If everyone complains then they are forced to act. After all these muzrats are breaking the rules.
I’ll definitely get there early if the Rev is gonna hold a prayer meeting. The thing is the police would just ignore the Christians praying. They’d have to make it a regular occurrence to get a result.
Could do with some Jews holding a service at the same time to make even more impact. Looking forward to May 6.
Did you also see that extra clip on the revs vid about that bag head muslim bitch coaching her fellow muzrats on how to hate the kufar?
What a hate filled sham of a religion. I look forward to the day of reckoning!
Yes. I had actually seen that a little while back. Unbelievable. I’m wondering if some Buddhists could show up and start chanting sutras. Have some Sikhs, Christians, Buddhists, Jews and Hindus … each in some space, commensurately sized with what the moslems take. Do it daily …. What would those little boy pooleesss”men” do?
If you look at the full clip of the plucky lady demanding answers of the police you will have noticed that at first they had a very condescending attitude towards her which persisted until they realised that she was not going away. Then they had to change tak and be more human which is difficult when you’ve been taught to be a robot. It’s like they have training in how to have a superior attitude to the public.
My policy has always been to be very business like and focussed when dealing with the authorities otherwise they do take liberties.
I’m convinced that England is where the anti islamic revolution will happen.
Things are gathering at a pace and more and more people are becoming angry and aware of the situation we are in.
Speakers corner round 2 will be a very important event and if you can’t be there I’ll give you all a blow by blow account of what happened.
The catalyst for any violent action against the government would be if through some chicanery they fail to give us the Brexit that we voted for.
I certainly don’t trust mrs May and see her as many do as part of the political elite that have already agreed another plan and are conspiring with the EU against us.
These fears have yet to play out and I genuinely hope they don’t.
You’re right, particularly the last sentence! Then the lawyers among them, and boy can they pump out the lawyers, move on to government for the same reason that Willy Sutton said when asked why he robbed banks, “Because that’s where the money is!”
College isn’t for EVERYONE! If everyone graduated from college, the vast majority would be looking for “positions” rather than “jobs” so who would we get to do the “grunt work?” Oh yeah, I forgot, the government will supply all our needs! I’m rather disappointed though, I have a couple of degrees but I still have to put my pants on one leg at a time; damn!
Brilliant in the summer though Ricky. I once owned a caravan on Anglesey near Red wharf Bay and the place was just paradise.
Always loved visiting Llandudno too and the tram ride to the summit of the Great Orme where you can look out over the sea for panoramic views of snowdonia.
Gonna have to visit again now’
I’m missing it!
There’s a place in Cornwall that’s supposed to have been the original site of Camelot I think it’s known as Tintagel castle. I went there years ago and it’s in a very ruinous condition in a spectacular setting and is obviously ancient but I don’t really know the truth of it being the original Camelot.
I’ve never heard of Camelot being in wales though. But it was the home of the ancient druids who’s stronghold was in Anglesey north wales and much of the aurthurian legend is linked to them.
I don’t believe the “immigrants” are much of a problem since most are honest, legal, productive, and good citizens. Now the “migrants,” on the other hand, being illegal aliens, are the rotten pits that need worrying about.

Especially the ones selling them weapons!
And don’t forget the Turks buying oil from ISIS!

After what happened to General Flynn for lying to the FBI, I shudder to think of this guy’s future. Oh wait, Flynn wasn’t muslime, was he?
What about Scooter Libby? Even though he was proven innocent of the accused crime … he was sent up … and the actual perpetrator of that crime (Deep Stater Richard Armitage), although fully known to the Special Prosecutor … was NEVER charged.
In this case, it is a good thing that he did not assimilate into our culture and learn about the 5th amendment. With a good lawyer and without his statements, he could have taken the stance that he was a victim of Islamaphobia and gotten a lesser sentence or might not have been convicted at all.

By looking at him you wouldn’t think he’s an evil scumbag!
No, not badmouthing hogs, as I enjoy smoking up pork loins. Not badmouthing monkeys. It’s just when you cross-breed a monkey with a pig .. you wind up with a moslem (the vilest of ALL creatures). I do badmouth moslems.
I’m sure that makes it right for you, and that’s OK by me. Enjoy a chicken sandwich, chickens also make good eggs, and these eggs make good sandwiches as well.
I just eat the food that’s put before me, I don’t condemn it, because it keeps me alive. The reason pigs were once condemned was due to a disease they commonly carried, but that was cleared up long ago, so not eating pork is basically a personal choice now.
The food we maybe should be condemning now is the genetically modified kind that may be contaminated by all sorts of nasty things, and some have chemicals in them that are prone to cause obesity as well. Time will tell.
Humans are poisoning their food supply as well as becoming obese junkies. Big Pharma wants to keep us just well enough to work, but just sick enough to want their drugs, and I’ve heard lately that they may be lacing pain medications with opium to make them more addictive. For not being a good food, shrimp are certainly tasty.
My late wife wanted a Pot Bellied Pig for a pet. I finally convinced her that if I got her one and he put his little pointed feet through her pool cover I would barbecue his little butt on my spit! She quit asking for one, because she knew I wasn’t lying to her about it. Pulled pork makes a great sandwich and I love smoked pork ribs.
I don’t know about a holy cow. All I have around here might be a holy sock or two. She used to darn them, now I damn them, to the trash can. I must have a holy pocket though, I can’t seem to keep any money in it, at least not for very long.
Someone has been figuring out ways to control people and the world since the beginning of the human race, but I don’t want to get into a religious debate with you about it. I suppose someone will eventually succeed, but I don’t want to be around to see it happen because to succeed with that kind of control takes an extreme dictator, with no compassion nor a sense of humor. Kinda like Muhammad I think, and being an infidel I don’t like him very much!
I don’t have much of an argument to anything in your last opinion and think you are pretty close to right. I do worry about mixing the drugs, whose going to shut them down. The FDA is in bed with Big Phama, and all but owns them, and getting prosecuted if caught depends on how many friends they have in high places, and they have a lot of them.
I like shrimp, the taste is mostly from the cocktail sauce. I’ve eaten grasshoppers as well, fried they taste a bit like burnt popcorn, but they do get stuck in my teeth.
I think Trump will make a second term. He is now finally beginning to get his feet wet and getting rid of the Obama holdovers he should never have allowed to remain after he took office. We still have a good many of the best judges Democrat money can buy, and more liberal lawyers than I can count however, and he needs to get started on them soon. His language is a little coarse at times, but then so is mine; at least he hasn’t succumbed to that Democrat mental disorder, Political Correctness!
You are right about the big industrialists and business controlling people. Treating them as if they were too big to fail was a very bad mistake! I spend a lot of time on my computer, but my cell phone isn’t very smart. When the young saleslady that sold it to me originally started to explain all the goodie features to me, I asked her if I could talk on it. She was a bit shocked then, when I asked her to turn off every other function that she could. Later I contacted the cell phone provider and had them turn off all they could, including texting, internet, and all. I got rid of my AT&T Internet, cell phone, and landline, went to google and took VOIP for my landline; been happy ever since. Google is a big bunch faster than other providers, with 1 GHz up, and down. I keep my cell on my person, don’t respond to it while driving, and seldom use it even during the day. But I do wish to hear from my kids when necessary, so that’s why it stays on.
I have no cable or satellite service either, only Over The Air TV, and record what I desire to watch. Fast forward is great. I rarely ever watch any TV in real time! 60 minute programs only take me about 40 minutes to complete. News (if you can call it news, being stale, repeated, and biased) programs are more of an entertainment item for the sheeple, particularly in the sports coverage, and I can usually get through a 60 minute News program in 20 to 30 minutes, depending what they have that interests me. One thing that is nice is if they try to mumble something or flash a screen that they have highlighted to make it work better for their Progressive agenda, I can stop, backup, and see what they were trying to hide! It seems to me that many times they are trying to be informers to the enemy, telling them whatever they think our military is about to do, so they can get ready for us to strike somewhere.
They all seem to lean to the left pretty hard; fox is a little better, but Chris Wallace sometimes makes me wonder. Stephanopolousl, being a Rhodes Scholar, is definitely a well trained Communist agitator. I take all their news with a cube of salt. Have a good evening.

The only good muslim, is muslim no more. It’s stupid and self defeating to say that not all muslims are rotten. If a muslim has a choice to not to live as a muslim, and he/she still chooses to do so, then of course they are rotten, because islam is rotten. Islam orders muslims to hate then lie, murder, torture, steal, enslave and rape. Islam orders even the death of muslims it they are not obedient, or if they dare to leave islam.
There is no muslim alive on this earth that does not know at least some of the atrocities being committed in the name of their god. Who do not know the horror that too often follows shouts of ‘allah akbar’, as acts of terror committed by hundreds of thousands of muslims happen around the world, continuously. Because making sure as many know about your atrocities as possible, is the very nature of terrorism.
Their hatred for all who are not muslim. Their targeted attacks of Jews. Their genocide of Christians being systematically carried out. They hate Jews the most, but powerful leaders, especially so called Christian leaders no longer use their vast resources to fight for Christians, so they are easy targets, even in their own homelands.
A muslim would have to have been living under a rock since birth to not know.
Claiming ignorance of islam can no longer be used as an excuse for defending it. That would be like claiming ignorance of cancer as an excuse for defending it.
Dorrie sorry about that I`ll try and clean it up . Thanks Bill K. Iam with you I don’t understand it either ha. and don’t know what the subject was been so long ago. B.K.
