An American convert to Islam, Allison Fluke-Ekren, who trained an all-female Islamic State battalion, has been sentenced to 20 years in prison. Allison Fluke-Ekren was sentenced to 20 years in prison and 25 years of supervised release. The West has not begun to understand the danger and mindset of jihadists — men, women, and children alike. Wherever they are, they are on a mission. Fluke-Ekren’s time in prison will do nothing to change her jihad mission, for which she will likely make recruits while behind bars. From the Justice Department:
While residing in Syria, Fluke-Ekren told a witness about her desire to conduct an attack in the United States. To conduct the attack, Fluke-Ekren explained that she could go to a shopping mall in the United States, park a vehicle full of explosives in the basement or parking garage level of the structure, and detonate the explosives in the vehicle with a cell phone triggering device. Fluke-Ekren also spoke about learning how to make bombs and explosives. Fluke-Ekren further said that she considered any attack that did not kill a large number of individuals to be a waste of resources. Fluke-Ekren would hear about external attacks taking place in countries outside the United States and would comment that she wished the attack had occurred on U.S. soil instead.
She trained women and girls “on the use of automatic firing AK-47 assault rifles, grenades, and explosive suicide belts.” Fluke-Ekren’s own daughter’s testimony is consistent with that of ISIS brides, who are often just as committed to the cause of jihad as their male counterparts. Nevertheless, ISIS brides are frequently embraced by clueless Western bleeding hearts as victims, rather than recognized for being the victimizers that they all too often are. Cécile Rousseau, a pediatric psychiatrist at McGill University in Canada, who is described as “an expert on violent radicalization and extremism,” recently advised that women and children who are being detained in Islamic State (ISIS) camps should be brought back “home” to Canada “quickly.” She asserted that they would not pose a danger to society and that they needed “support.” Unfortunately, she isn’t alone in perpetuating such rubbish.
The family of Allison Fluke-Ekren, pictured in this photo, looks harmless and loving. This is the type of show that moves gullible folk.
ISIS brides — who often indoctrinate their own children and others to murder infidels, rape, and do maximum harm — know all too well how to play Westerners for fools, pretending (when facing prison) that they are repentant victims in order to remain free if they manage to gain entry back into their country of origin. Yet they frequently continue to view these countries as enemy territory (dar al Harb). Gullible Leftists are unable to see past their own noses and own culture, so they fail to do the necessary research to understand the mental processes of jihadists. Jihadists easily manipulate this naive mentality. For instance, the infamous ISIS bride Shamima Begum was widely defended as a reformed, repentant innocent who was manipulated by Islamic State men. She played the infidels well, until more came to light, showing that she maintained her support for the rape and murder of Yazidi sex slaves. Although she “apologized for joining the brutal terror group” and many believed her, she “finally admitted she was one of its (ISIS) ‘poster girls.'”
A New York Post article described Allison Fluke-Ekren’s dedication to the Islamic State:
The 42-year-old’s devotion to the terrorist cause was “off the charts,” according to a cooperating witness interviewed by the FBI. She spoke Arabic, Turkish and Spanish, and ever the teacher, was in charge of administering exams to new ISIS recruits to gauge their level of devotion to Sharia law, authorities said. She also translated speeches and articles from ISIS leaders into English. On a scale of one to 10, her radicalization and devotion to ISIS was considered “11 or 12,”
“American Woman Who Trained All-Female ISIS Battalion Sentenced To 20 Years In Prison,” by Trevor Schakhol, Daily Caller, November 1, 2022:
A federal court sentenced Kansas’ Allison Fluke-Ekren, 42, to 20 years imprisonment and 25 years of supervised release after she led a battalion of female ISIS fighters and planned an attack on a Midwest college campus, according to CBS News.
Fluke-Ekren pleaded guilty in June to materially supporting a foreign terrorist organization. She organized and led a battalion of female ISIS members married to ISIS fighters in Syria and trained 100 women and girls for fighting.
Authorities said Fluke-Ekren converted to Islam as a University of Kansas student and later used “different husbands to advocate for approval of her military training plans” by terrorists while traveling to Egypt and Libya before ending up in Syria, CBS News reported. She reportedly gave a paid U.S. foreign government source a plan to attack a Midwest college campus using explosives, and claimed late ISIS Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi had received it, but charging documents indicated the plan never materialized.
Fluke-Ekren spent time in the Iraqi city of Mosul as well, when it was under ISIS control, according to CBS News. She reportedly revealed a never-perpetrated car bomb plan to a government witness in Syria, believing “any attack that did not kill a large number of individuals to be a waste of resources.” (RELATED: The Islamic State Is Back – But Its Focus Has Shifted)
