Nashville Muslimah makes terror threats to co-worker, “whole country will be Muslim soon; that this country is full of non-believers and that this place is full of non-believers; that all unbelievers should die”

Clearly, her co-workers were islamophobic. It's a religion of peace, doncha know? Good thing she didn't come to work with a vest on.

Nashville is a dumping ground for the refugee resettlement program. Whole Muslim communities from Somalia are resettled there

“Nashville woman accused of making terrorist threats toward co-workers” The Tennessean, September 8, 2012

A Nashville woman was charged with attempted terrorism Friday after
investigators said she threatened to hurt co-workers at the South
Nashville Dell facility last weekend.

The trouble began when a
CEVA Logistics employee said his co-worker Amal Ahmed Abdullahi, 29, of
Zermatt Avenue, approached him during his shift last Saturday.

According
to a release from Metro police, Abdullahi told the employee that “her
people were dying for Allah every day; that she was ready to die for
Allah; that this whole country will be Muslim soon; that this country is
full of non-believers and that this place (her work place) is full of
non-believers; that all unbelievers should die; that her life starts
after death; that her life is not here, nobody pays attention to her and
she should pick up a gun and shoot all these people.”

CEVA
Logistics signed the arrest warrant as the prosecutor against Abdullahi,
accusing her of intimidating/coercing a civilian population.

Metro
police spokesman Don Aaron said Friday that he was not immediately
aware of anyone previously being charged with attempted terrorism in
Nashville.

“In the times in which we live, statements such as the ones alleged to have been made in this case are not ignored,” he said.

Metro police were notified of the incident on Thursday and brought Abdullahi in for questioning on Friday.

At
first, she denied the conversation but later admitted to talking about a
religious topic with her co-worker, police said. She is being held at
the Metro Jail on a $50,000 bond and is scheduled to appear in court at 9
a.m. Wednesday.

David Raybin, a prominent Nashville defense
attorney, said police acted correctly in the case, but he questioned the
charge, which is listed as a class A felony on the affidavit against
Abdullahi.

“If you commit a consummated crime, it's a class A
felony, but if it's an attempt, it's one click down; it would be a class
B felony punishable by eight to 12 years in prison if convicted,”
Raybin said, adding that the police had probable cause to arrest
Abdullahi because of the possible threat. But, Raybin said, to
constitute an attempt, a person has to do something beyond making
statements.

“In an attempted bank robbery, people buy guns and
plan the crime,” he said. “For an attempt, you have to have an action.
In this particular case, it is a really close question as to whether it
constitutes an attempt. I think we have some species of assault here.
She said she 'should' do something, not that she 'would' do something.
If she had said 'would,' then you would be much closer to having a
terroristic threat.”

Under Tennessee code, assault by
intimidation, which Raybin says he believes to be the correct charge for
Abdullahi, is a class A misdemeanor.

“The intent to use a weapon could run it up to a felony, but that would be a stretch,” he said.
