A New Jersey man was arrested Wednesday on terror-related charges for allegedly seeking to provide material support to Hamas, and discussing the bombing of Trump Tower and the Israeli consulate in Manhattan, according to federal officials.
Jonathan Xie, 20, of Basking Ridge, is charged with two counts of attempting to provide material support to a designated terrorist organization, two counts of making false statements, and one count of transmitting a threat in interstate commerce.
He is scheduled to appear Wednesday afternoon before US Magistrate Judge Mark Falk in Newark federal court.
Xie also is accused of lying on his application to join the US Army and of making threats against pro-Israel groups, officials said.
In February, Xie said he wanted to join the US Army “to learn how to kill… So I can use that knowledge.”

Kind of makes you wonder how the Jihadis can get anything accomplished when those they recruit, or those that VOLUNTEER, are patently NUTS to begin with?
All they need is one to be successful
“Xie”
Has that his name, or his sex?
Xie !?!?!?!?
China ???
Thank You
Yes, a crazy Chinaman. And when they are crazy: get out the way.
Nutjob...wonder who his favorite professor is.
Basking Ridge is an upscale enclave in north Jersey.
And his ‘religion’ is? ...
Not Amish...
Starts with M ?
Methodist?
Those darn Methodists, out bombing people again!
Could be Mennonite, but where’s his straw hat and black bumpered car?

Based on what Liberals think of the NRA, I’m surprised he didn’t decide to join it instead of the Army.
