California Man Arrested For Attempting To Join ISIS

Luke 17:28-30 “Likewise as it was also in the days of Lot: They ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they built” but on the day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven and destroyed them all. Even so will it be in the day when the Son of Man is revealed.

A California man has been arrested for lying on a passport application as he attempted to join the Islamic terrorist group ISIS.

Adam Dandach, 21, has also been charged with obstructing justice by attempting to destroy records of his online activity before they could be seized by investigators.

Dandach was stopped at the Orange County airport while attempting to board a flight to Turkey.  He carried an “expedited replacement passport” that he obtained after claiming he threw away his old passport by accident.  Prosecutors say that the man’s mother confiscated the passport when she discovered his plan to join ISIS, so he knew the claim was false.

Court papers showed that Dandach was more disappointed in not being able to join ISIS than he was to be arrested for lying to officials.

If convicted, he could face up to 15 years in prison on a terrorism related count and 25 years on each of the other counts in the indictments.
