Pennsylvania neo-Nazi who converted to Islam indicted for soliciting jihadists to kill Americans

As the Left and its Islamic supremacist allies continue to circulate the lie that neo-Nazis are actually anti-jihad (and anti-jihadists are neo-Nazis), the reality is that neo-Nazis and jihadists are ideologically simpatico, and there is a lot of overlap between the two. Emerson Begolly, a.k.a. Asadullah Alshishani, “posted jihadi songs and pictures of himself in Nazi garb online.”

“Pennsylvania Man Indicted for Soliciting Jihadists to Kill Americans,” from the U.S. Attorney’s Office, July 14 (thanks to Mackie):

WASHINGTON—Emerson Winfield Begolly, 22, of New Bethlehem, Pa., was indicted by a federal grand jury in Alexandria, Va., today for allegedly soliciting Islamic extremists to engage in acts of terrorism within the United States and posting bomb-making instruction materials online.

The indictment was announced by Neil H. MacBride, U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia; Lisa Monaco, Assistant Attorney General for National Security; James W. McJunkin, Assistant Director in Charge of the FBI Washington Field Office; and David J. Hickton, U.S. Attorney for the Western District of Pennsylvania.

“Emerson Begolly is accused of repeatedly using the Internet to promote violent jihad against Americans,” said U.S. Attorney MacBride. “These allegations demonstrate how young people in the United States can become influenced by – and eventually participate in – jihadist propaganda that is a serious threat to the safety of us all.”…

Adam Gadahn Urges U.S. Muslims To Start Killing Americans

First Posted: 06/ 3/11 06:40 PM ET Updated: 06/ 3/11 07:27 PM ET

Adam Gadahn, a highly influential al Qaeda figure born in America, has issued a call to arms for U.S. Muslims.

In a newly released video (scroll down to view), Gadahn tells Muslims in the West to stockpile assault rifles and “target major institutions and public figures.”

“Do not rely on others, take the task upon yourself,” Gadahn said, according to the Middle East Media Research Institute. “What are you waiting for? America is absolutely awash with easily obtainable firearms.”

The two-hour incendiary video began popping up on jihadi websites Friday. In addition to offering tips on how to obtain firearms, Gadahn gives examples of potential targets: Merrill Lynch, Bank of America and Exxon.

“It’s just a matter of entrusting the matter to Allah and choosing the right place, the right time and the right method,” Gadahn said.

Fear of getting caught should not be a deterrent, according to Gadahn: “If it’s Allah’s will that you be captured, then it’s not the end the world and it doesn’t necessarily mean that you’re going to spend the rest of your life in prison,” he said.

Gadahn, 32, was born in California in 1978 to a Jewish father and Christian mother. At age 17, he converted to Islam and was recruited by a mosque that had links to al Qaeda. Gadahn later fled to Afghanistan, where he joined up with al Qaeda, met Osama bin Laden and became the terrorist group’s main propagandist.

A U.S. court indicted Gadahn in absentia for treason in 2006. The FBI considers him one of the “most wanted terrorists” in the world, and the State Department is offering a $1 million reward for his capture.

“Muslims in the West have to remember that they are perfectly placed to play an important and decisive part in the jihad against the Zionists and crusaders, and to do major damage to the enemies of Islam, waging war on their religion, sacred places and things and brethren,” Gadahn said. “This is a golden opportunity and a blessing.”
