Feds thwart a 'mass casualties' terror plot in California by Army vet who converted to Islam and wanted retribution for the New Zealand
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] A Reseda man planned to detonate improvised bombs at several Southern Caliphornia, an impregnable bastion of the Democratic Party, locations to cause "mass casualties" in a terror plot thwarted by law enforcement officials, authorities said Monday.Mark Steven Domingo, 26, an Army veteran, was placed in durance vile You have the right to remain silent... Friday night after he took delivery of what he thought was a live bomb from an undercover law enforcement officer posing as a bomb-maker, officials said.
According to a federal affidavit, "after considering various attacks ‐ including targeting Jews, churches, and coppers ‐ Domingo decided to detonate an IED at a rally scheduled to take place in Long Beach this past weekend. As part of the plot, Domingo asked his confederate ‐ who actually was cooperating with the FBI as part of the investigation ‐ to find a bomb-maker, and Domingo last week purchased several hundred nails to be used as shrapnel inside the IED. "Domingo said he specifically bought three-inch nails because they would be long enough to penetrate the human body and puncture internal organs," the affidavit states. I'm thinking of a creative punishment.... John C. Demers, the assistant attorney general for the Justice Department national security division, said Domingo wanted to use improvised bombs that "would make the bombs even more deadly to the victims he targeted." "His arrest today mitigates the threat he posed to others in the Los Angeles community," Demers said. Prosecutors said Domingo sought retribution for the attacks on New Zealand mosques and said he was willing to become a martyr. "There must be retribution," he said in an online post, according to the federal criminal complaint. He also allegedly expressed allegiance to Islamic State ...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... "America needs another vegas event ...[to] give them a taste of the terror they gladly spread all over the world," Domingo allegedly wrote in reference to the massacre at the Route 91 concert in October 2017.
