<p>The son of Afghan migrants was arrested by federal law enforcement officials this week for allegedly trying to board a flight to the Middle East so he could join the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/isis" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Islamic State</a> (ISIS), a designated Foreign Terrorist Organization (FTO).</p>
<p>Humzah Mashkoor, 18, from Colorado, was arrested on Monday at Denver International Airport before he was able to get on a flight headed to &#8220;to the United Arab Emirates, where he intended to stay until he continued on to either Afghanistan or Syria to serve as a fighter for ISIS,&#8221; the Department of Justice <a href="https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/colorado-man-arrested-attempting-provide-material-support-isis" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> in a statement.</p>
<p>He was charged with attempting to provide material support to an FTO.</p>
<p>Authorities began monitoring Mashkoor in November 2021 after he reportedly expressed support online for ISIS and began to use social media to connect with ISIS supporters, according to <a href="https://www.denver7.com/news/front-range/westminster/federal-authorities-arrest-westminster-man-18-who-allegedly-planned-to-join-isis" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Denver7 News</a>.</p>
<p>The following year, he began communicating with multiple undercover FBI agents who were posing as supporters of the terrorist organization and expressed his &#8220;intent to join ISIS as a fighter, provide money to the organization and recruit other supporters,&#8221; the report said. He told them that he had been to Afghanistan before his family was forced to leave.</p>
<p>He said he was frustrated because he could not make the trip or provide resources to the terror group because he was still a minor.</p>
<p>Earlier this year he reportedly expressed interest in getting married, finding a job, and finishing his high school education, the report said. But he was concerned about &#8220;abandoning&#8221; his potential wife while fighting in Afghanistan if he became &#8220;martyred.&#8221;</p>
<p>His family did not know why he was leaving the U.S. to go overseas and he only purchased a one-way plane ticket to the U.A.E.</p>
<p><b><a href="https://onelink.to/dwapp" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" aria-describedby="sk-tooltip-9096" data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://onelink.to/dwapp&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1700760801843000&amp;usg=AOvVaw2PQrVSrJfhxNb4LcARqniG">CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP</a></b></p>
<p>He told one of the undercover agents that his family was sad he was leaving, adding: &#8220;I don&#8217;t know how to properly say my final goodbyes to them or how to convey the reasons why I left without compromising myself.&#8221;</p>
<p>After arriving at DIA, he proceeded to go through the TSA security checkpoint and immediately after passing through he was taken into custody.</p>
<p>A search warrant that was executed on his home turned up an ISIS flag and a note explaining his intent to join the group.</p>
<p>Denver7 News highlighted the following excerpts that law enforcement says they discovered in a journal of his:</p>
<ul>
<li>&#8220;I fell in love with their (ISIS) steadfastness in the face of such animosity.&#8221;</li>
<li>&#8220;From then on I decided I wanted to be like them. Leaving behind the hypocritical life of humiliation to migrate to the lands of jihad.&#8221;</li>
<li>&#8220;So once again I state, that I have NO regrets about this blessed path decorated with thorns. And I hope to be granted one of two things. Victory over my enemies, or martyrdom.&#8221;</li>
<li>&#8220;I will never forget all that you&#8217;ve done for me and I&#8217;m sorry for how I treated you. Goodbye.&#8221;</li>
</ul>
