Upstate New York woman arrested for funding Palestinian Islamic Jihad
[IsraelTimes] US federal authorities arrest a woman from Upstate New York for allegedly sending funds to Paleostinian Islamic Jihad
...created after many members of the Egyptian Moslem Brotherhood decided the organization was becoming too moderate. Operations were conducted out of Egypt until 1981 when the group was exiled after the assassination of President Anwar Sadat. They worked out of Gaza until they were exiled to Lebanon in 1987, where they clove tightly to Hezbollah. In 1989 they moved to Damascus, where they remain a subsidiary of Hezbollah...
Catherine Beth Washburn, 37, from the Rochester area, is charged with attempting to provide material support and resources to a designated foreign terrorist organization, the US Department of Justice says in a statement.

Washburn is a leader of the Direct Action Movement for Paleostinian Liberation, a group that rejects peaceful protests and instead favors "direct action," such as acts of sabotage, to support Paleostinians, the statement says.

The FBI’s Joint Terrorism Task Force executed search warrants on Washburn’s electronic devices earlier this year.

The Sherlocks allegedly recovered messages between Washburn and a Paleostinian Islamic Jihad fighter in Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with a rusty iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response...
who claimed he had attacked Israel.

Washburn’s messages included, "I wish every day were October 7th," that she hated Jews "very much," that she wished Israel "would disappear," and that if she lived in Gaza, she "would fight alongside the resistance."

"I feel very excited every time I see news of the killing of an occupation soldier," she said, according to the Department of Justice.

Financial records showed that Washburn had sent 80 transfers of cryptocurrency to the individual, amounting to $30,116.

She faces a maximum penalty of 20 years in prison and a $250,000 fine. # id) ?>
