Luke 17:28-30 “Likewise as it was also in the days of Lot: They ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they built” but on the day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven and destroyed them all. Even so will it be in the day when the Son of Man is revealed.
A British teacher who was plotting to join ISIS in Syria has been sentenced to six years in prison for his efforts.
Jamshed Javeed came to the attention of local officials after he was turned in by his family. His sister recorded arguments between Jamshed and his family on her iPad and provided those recordings to officials.
“It was clear from the evidence in this case that the family were absolutely set against him joining this terrorist group in Syria,” Detective Chief Superintendent Tony Mole said. “They took (what) I consider to be some brave steps in terms of hiding his equipment … And absolutely without doubt they confronted him on his desire to go out and expressed their desire that he does not travel and join this group.”
Police say the family hid Jamshed’s passport so when he attempted to gain a second one authorities were able to arrest him for attempting to join ISIS.
Jamshed claims he was just “trying to help the people of Syria.”
The judge dismissed Jamshed’s claims noting that he wanted to leave even after finding out his wife was pregnant.
