Afghan National Brought to US As a ''Refugee'' by Biden Admin Pleads Guilty to Plotting Election Day Terror Attack in Oklahoma on Behalf of ISIS

2025-06-17

[THEGATEWAYPUNDIT] A citizen of Afghanistan has pleaded guilty to federal charges that he was planning an election day terror attack in Oklahoma City.

Nasir Ahmad Tawhedi,

…also in our archives as Nasir Ahmad Toohidi. Along with brother-in-law, Abdullah Haji Zada, Tawhedi being married to Zada's sister Maria Haji Zada. But she filed for divorce in January after their second child was born — I guess she doesn’t want to be shackled to a jailed jihadi. Oddly enough, Mr. Tawhedi’s younger brother was picked up a week later in France for exactly the same thing, because once arrested the authorities can access your devices, including your secret Telegram messages plotting parallel mayhem for Allah. Md,Tawhedi could receive 20 years for each charge….

27, pleaded guilty on Friday to conspiring and attempting to provide material support and resources to the Islamic State

...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that they were al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're really very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear western pols talk they're not really Moslems....
of Iraq and al-Sham (ISIS), a designated foreign terrorist organization, and receiving, attempting to receive, and conspiring to receive firearms and ammunition in furtherance of a federal crime of terrorism.

Tawhedi was brought to the United States as a ''refugee'' in 2021 during the Biden administration's chaotic withdrawal from Afghanistan.

According to a blurb from the Department of Justice, court documents state that ''Tawhedi admitted that between June 2024 and October 2024 he conspired with at least one other individual to purchase two AK-47 rifles, 500 rounds of ammunition, and 10 magazines, with the intent to carry out a mass-casualty attack on or around Election Day, Nov. 5, 2024, on behalf of ISIS. According to a criminal complaint affidavit filed in the case, Tawhedi communicated with an ISIS controller about his plan to purchase firearms for use in the terror plot, including asking the individual whether 500 rounds of ammunition would be sufficient.''

''Tawhedi and his co-conspirator, Abdullah Haji Zada,

… 18-year-old Afghan with permanent U.S. residency. Upon completion of Mr. Zada’s sentence, he will be deported and will lose his permanent residency and asylum eligibility….

were arrested on Oct. 7, 2024, after purchasing the firearms and ammunition from an undercover FBI employee,'' the blurb continued. ''Zada, 18, pleaded guilty in April 2025 to the firearms offense in connection with his role in the terror plot and is awaiting sentencing. Zada, who was 17 at the time of his arrest, entered his guilty plea as an adult and will be sentenced as an adult.''

Tawhedi faces a maximum penalty of 20 years in prison for the material support charge and up to 15 years in prison for the firearms charge. Zada faces up to 15 years in federal prison.

Following any prison sentences, both conspirators ''will be permanently removed from the United States and barred from reentry under stipulated judicial orders of removal to Afghanistan.''
