Has this been anywhere in the news?
First I have heard of it.
"According to the 33-page criminal complaint, the FBI began
investigating Hasan Edmonds late last year when agents discovered that
he and Jonas Edmonds allegedly had devised a plan for Hasan to travel
overseas and use his military training to fight for Islamic State, also
known as ISIS.
In
several online exchanges, Hasan Edmonds said that if he was unable to
get to Syria he would stay in the U.S. and "fight and die here in the
name of Allah," according to the charges.
"In a message Jan. 30, he told
the undercover agent that the best way to beat the U.S. and its Army was
to "break their will," according to the complaint."
"With the
U.S., no matter how many you kill they will keep coming unless the
soldiers and the American public no longer have the will to fight,"
Edmonds wrote, according to the complaint.
"If we can break their
spirits we will win."
"On Feb. 2, Hasan Edmonds contacted the
undercover agent again and said his cousin was willing to carry out the
attack on U.S. soil."
"Honestly we would love to do something like
the brother in Paris did," Hasan Edmonds allegedly wrote in a reference
to the January terrorist attacks on Charlie Hebdo magazine's
headquarters in France in which 16 people were slain."
