American Airlines Mechanic Abdul-Majeed Marouf Ahmed Alani Charged with Sabotaging Plane Has Possible Terror Ties, ISIS Jihad/Murder Videos Found On His Phone

A federal judge cited new evidence of potential terrorism sympathies in denying bail for a mechanic charged with sabotaging an American Airlines jetliner. U.S. Magistrate Judge Chris McAliley imposed pretrial detention for 60-year-old Abdul-Majeed Marouf Ahmed Alani at Wednesday’s hearing. 
The new evidence presented by prosecutors includes that Alani has a brother in Iraq who may be involved with the Islamic State extremist group as well as statements Alani made about wishing harm on non-Muslims.

"Make no mistake: This is fascism in action," Rep. Omar tweeted. "There's no guarantee that the Trump administration won't weaponize immigrants' political views against them by denying entry."
GO READ THE WHOLE THING.
