Kaan Sercan Damlarkaya arrested in Houston for terrorist plot

| December 13, 2017

Bobo sends us a link to a story about US citizen Kaan Sercan Damlarkaya who plotted terrorist activities with FBI informants in Houston, Texas. The 18-year-old had attempted twice to get to Syria to help his ISIS friends, but he failed. So he tried to make a go of it here in the US.

He also allegedly stated that if he was not able to go abroad to fight for ISIS, he would plan an attack in the United States. In his correspondence, he allegedly provided a formula for the explosive Triacetone Triperoxide (TATP), and how to use it in a pressure cooker with shrapnel.

Damlarkaya allegedly asked the undercover FBI agents if he could provide a farewell video to inspire others if he followed through with an attack that resulted in his death.

Additionally, he provided instructions on how to build an AK-47 or AR-15 assault rifle from readily available parts in order to avoid detection from authorities. He even discussed potentially using a machete or samurai sword as weapons.

He carried a knife everywhere he went to protect himself from police and he slept with a machete under his pillow. Now he’s looking at 20 years in prison. He’ll wish he had that machete.

“Kaan Sercan Damlarkaya’

Claw, can you run the numbers?

Dapandico

Wasn’t that a character on Star Trek?

Ex-PH2

That was Khan Noonien Singh. Considerably more charismatic and definitely smarter. Played by a Mexican fellow, who was in several of Esther Williams’ swimming movies. You may remember him as Mr. Roarke.

Ricardo Montalban! Also Chrysler commercials in the 70’s. Rich Corinvian Leather!!!! Also the excellent movie Battleground.

It is “Corinthian” leather. But now we get Napa or Mulan leather; anyway that is what GM puts out.

Based on the official TAH Name Scrabble (Home Version)®™ scoring system:

Kaan Sercan Damlarkaya = 36.

rgr769

Doesn’t he get a multiplier of some type for being an ISIS recruit, even if he didn’t get his ISIS combat tour?

Give the retarded asshole a rubber ducky and tell him to swim to syria!!

The Jehovah’s witnesses at it again.

ARE YOU SURE he’s not an Amish Anarchist?

That’s the militant arm of the JW’s … the Sword of Jehova.

Kaan Sercan Damlarkaya Is too long of a name for Bubba. He’ll have a new one within the first few months of prison.

US citizen don’t mean shit anymore.

Enjoy the hoosegow, bitch! Where every day is Man-Love Thursday!

He gonna be somebody’s SQUEEEEEAAALing little piggy!

Ex-PH2

He provided the formula for an explosive? Yeah, but did he know how to put it together without blowing himself up?

Y’know, there’s a valid reason that there are warnings on labels, e.g., don’t mix scouring powder and household ammonia. Some people are just plain dumb.

NavyEODguy

You’re right Ex-PH2. TATP is very dangerous to make and the kicker after wasting all that time, money and dangerous effort — it has a “shelf life” — use it or lose it.

Too bad the little bastard didn’t try making some…..just to get it right.

If Obama had a son …

“Houston is the nation’s demographic future. In racial and ethnic composition, the Houston of today very much resembles the U.S. 40 years hence.

•38.8% Anglo
•35.9% Hispanic
•16.7% African American
•6.7% Asian/Other
•1.6% Other

More than 145 different languages [emphasis added] are spoken in Houston. That’s the third largest number of languages spoken in a U.S. city behind New York (192) and LA (185). More than a third of Houstonians older than five speak a language other than English at home.”

If this bragging were to be accurate that Houston looks like what the US will be in 40 years, then in 40 years the US will resemble a slit latrine.

David

By inference you re saying Houston resembles a slit latrine now? (I object to that, during Harvey it looked more like all the toilets backed up)

Graybeard

Given the last few mayors that have been elected and more than one US Representative from Harris County, yeah, pretty much.

I grew up there, but man has it … ‘thrived’ … under the leadership of a certain Party.

Are the street walkers as aggressive as has been reported around Bissonet and the SW Fwy? I thought they were bad on S. Main…

And the crime maps look like a paper target after a case of 12ga no.9 has been fired at it.

I know there’s bound to be some islands of decency somewhere in there…

Graybeard

He was a favorite of the former mayor.

General Ballduster McSoulpatch is emblematic of all that is wrong with my home town.

rgr769

I forget; was it him or Soupsandwich that died?

NHSparky

Both, IIRC.

Eden

Yeah, outside the Beltway.

I shall name this POS Alphabet.

better dead than fed!
