No media coverage. Despite the reality of what is happening around us, the enemedia is a chronic apoplectic state, mad with Trump Derangement, spinning tales of collusion, Russia, fake news and ‘islamophobia’ on a daily basis, hour by hour. Realityphobia – a real madness.

Ruslan Maratovich Asainov, a naturalized U.S. citizen born in Kazakhstan, was charged with conspiracy to provide and providing material support to ISIS, including weapons training for recruits and advising the militant group, the statement said. He was also charged with obstruction of justice.

Asainov allegedly traveled to Istanbul, Turkey in late 2013 and crossed the border into Syria, where he joined the terrorist organization. He rose through the ranks and became an “emir,” overseeing the training of other ISIS recruits in the use of weapons, according to prosecutors.
He is also accused of attempting to entice an informant working with the NYPD’s intelligence division to join ISIS in Syria. Asainov told the informant he’d help get him a job, housing, food and $50 a month, according to a complaint unsealed in Brooklyn federal court in July.

In March 2015 he requested $2,800 from an informant to purchase a rifle scope, sending photographs, boasting about the group’s barbarity and declaring his wish to die on the battlefield. Instead, he was later detained by the U.S-backed Syrian Democratic Forces.
Asainov, also known as “Suleiman Al-Amriki” and “Suleiman Al-Kazakhi,” was transferred into FBI custody in July.
He faces a maximum sentence of life in prison if convicted. His will be arraigned at a later date.

Naturalized American? Baloney! Once a raghead, always a raghead, a la Ilhan Omar.
Turn about is fair play so warm up the firing squad.

Life Sentence? Just another intolerable burden the taxpayer where this dedicated jihadist will recruit, radicalize, train and send out to the streets of America tens of new jihadists over the next 30 years he is in prison. Jihad never ends except in death. This is not punishment, just another opportunity to carry out jihad while being supported by the taxpayer with weekly visits by an Imam and a full prison account to buy whatever luxuries and services are available.

Life in prison? Where he can radicalize the prison population? Unacceptable. I guess
I’m a hardliner on this, but military tribunal and death sentence.
