A suspect accused of plotting the Michigan Halloween terror attack allegedly “sought guidance” on when to carry out the violence from the father of a local “extremist” Islamic preacher who has previously called on American Muslims to wage jihad.
Mohmed Ali, 20, and an unnamed juvenile had a conversation last week about reaching out to the father of the so-called “Islamic ideologue” to ask for advice on timing for a “good deed,” the FBI alleged in a criminal complaint.
The feds didn’t specifically identify the Islamic ideologue but described a research paper on radicalization that clearly named the radical preacher as ISIS supporter , Ahmad Musa Jibril, according to the court filing.
Jibril’s father, Shaykh Musa Abdullah Jibril, who also isn’t named in the complaint, founded a mosque
