FBI: Man planned Christmas terror attack for SF's Pier 39

SAN FRANCISCO (KGO) --
Officials say they've stopped a man who was planning a possible Christmas terror attack in San Francisco.

We've learned the FBI has arrested a man by the name of Everitt Aaron Jameson from Modesto. They say he wanted to target Pier 39.  ...

Jameson reportedly said he was inspired by the New York terror attack on Oct. 31, when a man drove into a crowd and killed eight people, and the deadly 2015 shooting in San Bernardino. The documents also say Jameson was posting and liking pro-ISIS and pro-terrorism content on Facebook.   ...

... FBI agents first were tipped off to Jameson in September, when a confidential informant reported a suspicious Facebook account, where the account holder was "liking" and "loving" posts that were pro-ISIS, documents state. For instance, he loved a post in November that is an image of Santa Claus standing in New York with a box of dynamite.

The informant began messaging Jameson, who told him that he was there to "join the cause against the darul kuffar ( or nonbelievers).  I'm ready."  He also said that he took his shahada proving that he was believer two years at the Merced Islamic Center. No one answered the phone there on Friday when KTVU called and left a message.   ...

Its just a matter of time before some muslim loser rubs leftwing SF's nose in their own hubris.

Unfortunately it will likely cost innocent people their lives.

Sounds a bit like another sting which I don't really mind when they catch the bad guys but some people seem to take issue with such a tactic based on libertarian principles.

One really wonders about the psychology, attraction for mostly males but some females too, to convert to Islam. Like the famous singer, Cat Stevens converted and I know of another case. I guess, these people think they have found the "true religion".

The FBI announced on Friday that it arrested California tow truck driver Everitt Aaron Jameson for plotting a Christmas terror attack on Pier 39 in San Francisco.

In statements to undercover informants, Jameson outlined a plan that would have involved running civilians down with his truck, deploying improvised explosives, and using his skills as a Marine sharpshooter to increase the body count. A note he evidently intended for publication after the attack swore allegiance to ISIS and cited President Donald Trump’s recognition of Jerusalem as the capital of Israel as a reason for his actions.

FBI documents state that Jameson planned to use his tow truck for a mass-casualty attack on Pier 39 because he “had been there before and knew it was a heavily crowded area.” He reportedly said Christmas would be “the perfect day to commit the attack.”

I saw it at TOS: but it really is true, look at a number of stories on this incident and the stories seem to highlight that this Everett fellow was in the Marines. So Breitbart here has better reporting imho.

Al Beeb as some people call them:

http://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-42462463

This is the headline: San Francisco: Man arrested over 'Christmas terror plan'

Okay, but in the sidebar on the above webpage: Ex-marine held over US 'terror plot'

That's pretty disgusting.

But I wouldn't saddle the BBC alone for doing this.

I guess the VOA, Voice of America does okay in small letter.

So, I don't know if you purposefully selected the breitbart story but as said, they seem to be more truthful here.

He finished basic training and then was let go for fraudulent enlistment, so not really a marine.  Also not really right in the head.  Thank God he was not able to carry out his plan.

Law enforcement has to be right 100% of the time, the bad guys only once.
In a time of universal deceit - telling the truth is a revolutionary act.

Ex-marine convert, 26, who calls himself a 'slave of Allah' is arrested for plotting Christmas Day terror attack on San Francisco's Pier 39 sparked by Trump's recognition of Jerusalem as Israel's capital
Daily Mail/UK, Dec 22, 2017

A former Marine has been arrested for plotting a Christmas Day attack on San Francisco's Pier 39.

The FBI announced on Wednesday that Everitt Aaron Jameson from Modesto, California, had been taken into custody.

They found a manifesto at his home which denounced Trump for recently declaring Jerusalem Israel's capital and they also discovered three handguns and four fireworks.

For months, Jameson had been speaking to an undercover FBI agent who he thought was a high-ranking member of a terror group.

Agents started looking into him after one of their sources flagged his Facebook profile to them. The source said they noticed him 'liking' posts in support of ISIS and terror attacks against the US.

Muslim plot to bomb San Francisco tourist attraction on Christmas foiled
 

By Matthew Vadum -- Matthew Vadum —— Bio and Archives--December 23, 2017
 

Muslim plot to bomb San Francisco tourist attraction on Christmas foiledChristmas is a time for reflection. It is also a popular day for Muslim terrorists to kill Christians and Jews and other Muslims, too. In other words, Christmas falls on a day that ends in a “Y” — and killing in Allah’s name never goes out of season.

But Allah forbid anyone attack a Muslim during the Ramadan, Islam’s holiest month! That makes the so-called Arab street goes crazy — as does, well, anything and everything. The Koran was said to have been revealed to Muhammad, the founder of Islam, during the month now called Ramadan.
