Exclusive: FBI Director Kash Patel issued a fiery warning on behalf of ISIS after destroying a mass shooting plot in a military base.
Patel told Fox News Digital that anyone who targets the U.S. military or conspires with foreign terrorist organizations will "prosecute the law to the greatest extent."
The director's warning comes after a former Michigan Army National Guard member Ammar Abdulmajid-Mohamed said that he was 19 years old and was arrested for allegedly planning a mass shooting near the Tacom & Armaments Commands (TACOM) center in ARSENAL, Detroit, Warren, Michigan.

“Let it be a warning: Anyone who targets our military or conspires with foreign terrorist organizations will find, stop and prosecute to the maximum extent of the law,” Patel told Fox News Digital Adigital on Thursday. “I commend the men and women of the United Terrorism Task Force and our law enforcement partners for their continued commitment to protecting the American people.”

Officials said: "His drone was fired to support the attack plan," and told an undercover FBI agent in the foiled plot that he suggested "everyone has about seven magazines because you don't want to get in there and run out of ammunition."
The allegations are now facing attempts to provide material support to foreign terrorist organizations and distribute information related to destructive devices. If convicted, he will face a maximum fine of 20 years per 20 years.

In April, the Justice Department said, “two secret officials said they intend to implement the above plan in the direction of ISIS.
"In response, Said provided material assistance to the attack plan, including providing armor-piercing ammunition and magazines for the attack, flying his drone over TACOM to conduct operational reconnaissance, training the undercover employees on firearms and the construction of Molotov cocktails for use during the attack and planning numerous details of the attack, including how to enter TACOM and which building to target."

The criminal complaint said that it was about June 2024 that it began to communicate with an undercover FBI agent who he believed was an ISIS supporter.
The complaint noted that the note enlisted in the Michigan Army National Guard in September 2022 and participated in basic training in Fort Moore, Georgia. He later reported to the Michigan Army National Guard Taylor Armory and was discharged around December 2024.
