Waheba Issa Dais encouraged an individual, whom she believed to be an ISIS supporter, to conduct an attack on the United States in the name of ISIS.
The FBI arrested an Arab-Israeli in Cudahy, Wisconsin, on Wednesday for attempting to provide material support and resources to Islamic State, according to the US Justice Department.
Waheba Issa Dais, 45, used multiple social media accounts she hacked and hijacked from unwitting victims to attempt to “provide services, personnel, expert advice and assistance to ISIS, by promoting ISIS’s agenda, facilitating recruitment and maintaining a virtual library of instructions on how to make bombs, biological weapons, poisons and suicide vests to assist self-proclaimed ISIS members and supporters in their attack planning,” according to the criminal complaint filed against her.

Dais, a legal permanent resident of Wisconsin, used one of her pro-ISIS accounts to encourage an individual whom she believed to be an ISIS supporter – apparently an FBI informant – to conduct an attack on the United States in the name of ISIS.
According to the Justice Department, Dais explained to the informant in detail how to make ricin, a highly toxic poison. She then encouraged the informant to introduce the ricin to a government post or water reservoir. In another social media post, she suggested potential targets for bombing attacks, including summer street festivals and celebrations.
Dais appeared before a federal magistrate judge Wednesday after she was arrested.
She faces a statutory maximum sentence of 20 years’ imprisonment and a fine of up to $250,000.
“A criminal complaint is merely an allegation, and the defendant is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law,” the Justice Department clarified in a press release.
The case was investigated by the FBI Milwaukee Division’s Joint Terrorism Task Force.
Dais is not the first Israeli national to be arrested for assisting ISIS.
Earlier this year, the Shin Bet (Israel Security Agency) revealed that it arrested Hassan Taher Shir Yusuf, a resident of the Arab-Israeli city of Taiba, on suspicion of supporting the terrorist group and planning an attack.
Yusuf had watched explanatory videos on how to prepare explosives and even tried to find someone to purchase an M16 rifle for him.
In 2016, three ISIS-sympathizing Israeli men were arrested for trying to build a terror tunnel from the Arab town of Taiba, located 12 km. east of Kfar Saba, across the Green Line and into the West Bank.
An FBI informant.
Thanks for the post.
Let him go. The FBI is a fraudulent agency.
How many years have they known about her and let her operate? How many thousand more of her are being watched but nothing is being done to stop them?
All muslims are potential terrorists.
Jihad is commanded of them by their prophet.
There can be no peace until there is no Islam or only Islam.
Mad Mo made it so.
Woman, not man.

“FBI ARRESTS ARAB-ISRAELI WHO RECRUITED FOR ISIS IN WISCONSIN”
What, they took time out from sandbagging Trump?
I know about 20 Sephardic Jews with the surname “dais”. Very common.
I suspect an angry modern day neo-Samaritan.
I have many good friends that are Arab Israeli. I grew up with a lot of bedouins. This is unfortunate.
Why is her possible sentence only 20 years? She may be a legal resident, but it doesn’t say she’s a citizen. Send her to Gitmo and leave her there for the rest of her life with NO ACCESS to computers.
That is the sad reality. We eliminate this evil, or the evil eliminates civilization
It is unfortunate, and interestingly not much reliable information on her. Not a reflection on Israeli Arabs. Don’t think all that many come here. Looking at local papers, she’s Israeli Arab. Her booking pic uncovered head, sketches show her head covered properly so I presume she’s Muslim. Depending on the article, two to seven children. Some articles note they’re being “placed”. What to do with the children of detained criminals is a big issue here in the US, as I’m sure you know. Sounds like she was mostly collecting and desiminating articles on social media sites. And “recruiting”, more accurately encouraging. Glad they caught her. The big risk, those of common mind provide the the nutrients committed, trained terrorist can be nurtured in and strike from. Not a good sign.
“What to do with the children of detained criminals is a big issue here in the US, as I’m sure you know.”
Both my brother and his wife were recently sentenced to prison.
Nobody gave a damn about their kids, not should they.

I believe the article, lazy not reading again, describes her as a legal Wisconsin resident. There was a bill to stop sanctuary cities in the state last fall, don’t know what result was. However Cudahy is a suburb of Milwaukee the city, and in Milwaukee County, which is a Sanctuary County. Which must make some California counties jealous. Which makes me wonder if she’s legal. Guess we’d have to ask the journalist. The real issue is the nature of her arrival and life in the US the last few decades. Need to understand how world citizens end up in the US, even if they’re legal, and adhere to our enemies.
Sorry for the circumstance, but they should be well treated and consideration given to their placements
However, the parents should not be released in consideration of having children. Borrowed or even real. Nor should we build family housing. Or acomodation in Hillary's village, free. For the lunatics on the left with burning hair, what other solutions are there. Within the law. Which even applies to the left.
“Within the law. Which even applies to the left.”
I see no evidence of that lately.
