EXCLUSIVEFBI makes horrifying discovery in Airbnb rented by New Orleans terrorist after he mowed down 15 people
By EMMA JAMES IN NEW ORLEANS FOR DAILYMAIL.COM

Published: 00:17 EST, 2 January 2025 | Updated: 08:46 EST, 2 January 2025
 
Federal investigators believe a US Army veteran who drove a truck into a crowd of New Year's revelers in New Orleans' French Quarter prepared the IED explosives at a nearby rental property.

Shamsud-Din Jabbar, 42, a US citizen born and raised in Texas drove an electric vehicle from Houston to Louisiana to carry out the deadly attack which killed 15 and left at least 35 injured.

Investigators are probing the theory he rented a nearby property on Airbnb in St. Roch for his base before carrying out the attack.
 
Exclusive DailyMail.com photographs show the moment the FBI removed bomb making materials from the two-bedroom and two-bathroom property close to the French Quarter.

 FBI rules out involvement of 3 men, 1 woman allegedly seen planting IEDs around New Orleans near terror attack
By Joe Marino and
Caitlin McCormack   
Published Jan. 1, 2025
Updated Jan. 1, 2025, 7:11 p.m. ET

The feds ruled out that the ISIS flag-flying terrorist who killed at least 15 people and injured dozens of others on New Orleans’ famed Bourbon Street had help from four people spotted on surveillance footage near the deadly attack Wednesday.

Video surveillance from the French Quarter seemingly showed three men and one woman planting explosives at multiple locations, a federal alert to police departments around the country said soon after the tragic attack.

Federal authorities have since ruled out their involvement in the attack but still suggested that terror suspect Shamsud-Din Jabbar, 42, was not “solely responsible” for the carnage.

TURO App Used to Rent the Trucks Used in the New Orleans, Las Vegas Terror Attacks Render Leads

By Jennifer Oliver O'Connell | 10:01 PM on January 01, 2025
 
Unlike traditional car rental companies like Hertz, Alamo, or National, the Turo app offers peer-to-peer functionality in its vehicle rentals. So, instead of reserving a car through a particular company, you reserve a car from an individual.
 
The app has gained in prominence since its inception in 2010, and its CEO Andre Haddad explains on his LinkedIn profile why he finds the company concept attractive.

Turo immediately clicked for me — not only was it a marketplace, but it was a marketplace for cars. As a lifelong car enthusiast, I was thrilled to combine two of my greatest passions. Soon after signing on as CEO, I listed my 2006 Porsche 911 Carrera S on the site — it was car #279 on the marketplace and is still available today, the longest-standing currently active car on Turo.

This notion of unlocking the value of something that had been locked away in a home, a closet, a garage, electrified me all those years ago, and continues to electrify me today. Marketplaces attract innovators and entrepreneurial spirits, those driven, creative minds who look at the world and see possibility rather than monolithic, unbreakable boxes. And they attract consumers who value the one-of-a-kind over the mass-produced, the unique over the generic, experience over pure utility.

It seems two terrorists took advantage of the ease of this app to engineer the attacks in Las Vegas and New Orleans.

At 8:14 p.m. EST on the same day as a terror attack that claimed more than a dozen lives in New Orleans, the governor of Louisiana posted this:
 
What inspired Peter Paul Rubens's Descent from the Cross?What inspired Peter Paul Rubens's Descent from the Cross?

BEHOLD ... THE RATIO:
 
The governor was likely already scheduled to eat in New Orleans, considering the Sugar Bowl college football game was originally scheduled for Wednesday night (but was pushed back to Thursday after the attack).

But someone on his comms team didn't understand the PR optics of a fancy restaurant juxtaposed with a mass casualty incident.

What was the horrifying discovery made by the FBI?

[American Girl]

Excerpt:

A rental property linked to Shamsud-Din Jabbar, the suspect behind the New Year’s Day terror attack on Bourbon Street, was engulfed in flames early Wednesday morning. The incident, which occurred in the St. Roch neighborhood of New Orleans, prompted law enforcement and bomb squad units to respond immediately.

Local sources, including NOLA.com, revealed that the Airbnb was being rented by Jabbar, who is believed to have been inspired by ISIS. President Biden addressed the nation, confirming Jabbar’s ties to the terrorist organization and revealing that the suspect had shared his intent to kill on social media just hours before the attack. Authorities also discovered an Islamic State flag in the rented vehicle Jabbar used to drive through a crowd, killing 15 people and injuring over 30 others. Improvised explosive devices (IEDs) were found at the scene, with indications that they may have been manufactured at the Airbnb.




While the terrorist was killed last night by the police, the Airbnb he was staying at burned down this morning.

Sketchy.

Mosque Attended by New Orleans Terrorist Warns Members Not to Talk to FBI
"Please refer to CAIR"
January 2, 2025 by Daniel Greenfield Leave a Comment

Newsletter


Not suspicious at all.

Masjid Bilal, the mosque attended by Shamsud Din Jabbar, the New Orleans Car Jihadist, appears to have sent out a message to members, urging them not to talk to the media and “if approached by the FBI and a response is necessary please refer to CAIR and ISGH”.

CAIR is an Islamist group with a history of supporting terrorists. ISGH is the Islamic Society of Greater Houston.

The mosque is essentially telling members not to talk to the FBI but to lawyer up and get the backing of terror advocates at CAIR to handle the interactions. And that is what CAIR advises as well.

The message also urges that “we stay united at this time as we condemn these terrible acts.” That seems to be a prompt to condemn the Islamic terrorist attacks.

What kind of people need this advice?

Evidence that the FBI is chronically lowering its standards are evident everywhere. Take Assistant Special Agent in Charge Alethea Duncan, who initially stated that the terror attack was not being considered a terrorist attack - she was wearing a prohibited nose ring.

I've heard that a man who lives not too far from us was among the injured. He and the family were visiting NOLA, and he had gone out with friends for pizza. When he didn't return to the hotel after a reasonable time, his family became concerned. The man, who had been confined to a wheelchair for the past 25 years, had been rushed to a hospital for surgery after a police officer scrawled "alive" on his forehead. Both legs were broken, and he required extensive surgery.

FBI: Jabbar ‘Planned to Harm’ Family, Friends but Wanted Headlines Focused on ‘War Between the Believers and the Disbelievers’

New Orleans terror suspect Shamsud Din Jabbar said he originally planned to target his family and friends instead of strangers but did not because he feared the headlines would not focus on the “war between the believers and the disbelievers,” FBI Deputy Assistant Director Christopher Raia of the Counterterrorism Division revealed during a press conference Thursday morning.

Believing the attacker (terrorist) acted alone is a whole truckload of stupid. More likely, co-conspirators burned the place the guy was staying because there was no way to eliminate significant amounts of trace evidence from fingerprints to DNA. And what about the other little bomb setters? Oh, that's right, they couldn't track down the people who set bombs by the DNC and GOP on 1/6, even though they turned the dogs loose to collar grandmothers all over North America.
That outfit begs for new management (and some personnel changes).

Someone should work the timeline on that using store videos and see if that is even possible. I'd bet he'd have to be multiple places at once. But then, if @MeganC is right, the little elves were likely FBI, and that's why the extra gadgets failed to detonate. With all the radar-ing  going on (or not), it looks like the current staff is trying to appear relevant ahead of a shakeup, just to feed objections to putting someone in charge who will decimate their ranks.

Right. Fake, non-functional bombs are a hallmark of past FBI sting operations like the three I noted. That none of the five or more bombs in this event worked made me wonder.

Considering how crude the red herring devices typically seem to be, at that particular level of sophistication, it should not be difficult to construct something at least reliable. That none of them detonated makes me wonder, too.

There are too many coincidences here for there to be mere coincidences.

1. Both perps knew each other.
2. Both used improvised bombs.
3. Both used the same obscure rental service.
4. Both acted on the same day.
