Where did Zoobia Shahnaz get her understanding of Islam? Is her mosque being investigated? Why not?
“Pakistani-American woman sentenced to 13 years by US court for funding ISIS,” ANI, May 15, 2020 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):
NEW YORK: A Pakistani-American woman — Zoobia Shahnaz — has been sentenced to 13 years of imprisonment by a United States’ Federal Court for providing material support to terror fronts of Islamic States in Pakistan, China and Turkey.
…Zoobia Shahnaz had pleaded guilty in November 2018 for providing material support to a foreign terrorist organisation, specifically more than USD 150,000 to the Islamic State of Iraq and al-Sham (ISIS), and attempting to travel to Syria to join ISIS.
“As set forth in court filings and facts presented at the sentencing hearing, between March 2017 and July 2017, Shahnaz defrauded numerous financial institutions to obtain money for the ISIS, including a loan for approximately USD 22,500,” reads a statement by US Department of Justice….
On July 31, 2017, Shahnaz was arrested at John F Kennedy International Airport in Queens, New York, while attempting to board a flight with a layover in Istanbul, Turkey — a common point of entry for individuals travelling from western countries to join ISIS in Syria.
Shahnaz had accessed ISIS violent jihad-related websites and message boards, and social media and messaging pages of known ISIS recruiters, facilitators and financiers. She also performed numerous internet searches for information that would facilitate her entry into Syria.
Court-authorized search warrants executed at Shahnaz’s residence on Long Island resulted in the seizure of terrorist and jihad-related propaganda, including a photograph of a suicide belt of explosives and a night vision scope, the statement further said.

Zoobia Shahnaz perfectly understands the 164 jihad verses and the exegesis of those verses … all able-bodied Muslims should conduct jihad-warfare against the dirty kufaar or at least pay for it. She tried to do both.

It’s a pity the term hard labor isn’t used for jail sentences anymore.
Put her to work on a chain gang for all of the 13 years, maybe that will enable her to see the error of her thought processes.
