Syrian Man Being Tried for Recruiting ISIS Members in South Korea

Here is an update on the Syrian man that was arrested in Incheon for trying to recruit ISIS members:

A Syrian man is being tried in the first case under the anti-terrorism law enacted in 2016, Incheon District Court said Monday.

A second hearing was held Monday behind closed doors to prevent details being revealed during the ongoing probe and to protect identities.

The man, 33, is accused of showing ISIS propaganda video tapes to Iraqi workers in a junkyard at Pyeongtaek, Gyeonggi province.

ISIS, also known as Daesh, is internationally designated as a terrorist organization that follows the fundamentalist doctrine of Sunni Islam.

He is also accused of recruiting for ISIS through Facebook. His phone records showed he was an active member of the organization.

A person who recruits for a terrorist group can be jailed for up to five years.  [Korea Times]

See, CH… Koreans can expect to gain much in the way of multiculturalism from importing angry Muslim men with no desire to assimilate, no useful job skills, and a desire to kill all who are not Muslims (as the Prophet commanded)…

Plus, in either the most blatant lie of all time or a complete lack of knowledge about the Quran and the Hadiths, the Dalai Lama has said there is no such thing as a “Muslim terrorist” as anyone who partakes in violent activities is not a “genuine” Muslim. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/people/dalai-lama-muslim-terrorism-islam-no-such-thing-as-video-watch-speech-a7317001.html

This terrorist needs no attention that would trigger other terrorists. He just needs a quiet one-way helicopter ride out over the ocean.

As for no such thing as a Muslim terrorist…

Person B: “But my uncle Angus is a Scotsman and he puts sugar on his porridge.”
Person A: “But no TRUE Scotsman puts sugar on his porridge.”
