Three men were charged on Wednesday with conspiring to support Islamic State, including two who planned to travel to Syria to fight on behalf of the radical group, U.S. authorities said.
One of the men, Akhror Saidakhmetov, 19, of Kazakhstan was arrested early on Wednesday at John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York, where authorities said he was attempting to board a flight to Turkey on his way to Syria.
Another defendant, Abdurasul Hasanovich Juraboev, 24, of Uzbekistan, had previously purchased a ticket for a March flight to Istanbul, said Loretta Lynch, U.S. Attorney in Brooklyn.
Abror Habibov, 30, of Uzbekistan, was accused of helping to fund Saidakhmetov's efforts, prosecutors said.
All three men live in Brooklyn.

These three individuals came to light because on of them was posting that he was going to kill the President, then FBI, and all the police with an AK-47. The investigation started last August. Since none of them are US Citizens then I think Gitmo would be on the table. According to the article I just read they only face 15 years if convicted what a crock.

If you decide to do anything against this country then in my opinion you must be willing to accept the consequences. Knowing the law seems to be kind of important when you reside in a country. Ignorance of the law is no excuse. If one does not understand English, then it is time to learn it. However, committing a crime against a country in which you reside has consequences which must be carried out. We as a country cannot be sympathetic to people who do these kind of things.

These three should be treated as a direct threat against the people of this country and be charged with treason. They should be tried and if found guilty put to death in the way that ISIS kills others, behead them. This country must stand strong against anything or anyone that poses a threat to this country or any American overseas.
