The Psychodynamics of JIhad

The FBI has asserted that there will be more surveillance of "marginal" or "borderline" American terror suspects. This assertion is supposed to comfort the American people? Really?

In the world of jihad, the preparatory command is not a “borderline” activity. It is a seamless activity where the one command is followed through naturally by the second command. The myth of a borderline jihadi is just that.

I believe that watch lists should be maintained to locate individuals who show signs of preparatory command. When these signals are identified, they should be removed from the public square prior to execution of command.

Muslim Elton Simpson embarked on jihad with his first signal noted on a social media platform. He became a shaheed through intent, not action. He died for the cause the day he declared for the cause. His death on May 3rd in Garland, Texas is merely the visible demonstration of the death which he had already invoked. Don’t kid yourself. He was already a dead man walking.

Pamela Geller is correct when she states that if the target had not been the Draw the Prophet Art Exhibit in Garland, Texas, there would have indeed been another target as the focus of Elwood Simpson and Nadir Soofi.
