A 33-year-old man has pleaded guilty to attempted use of a weapon of mass destruction after blowing up a bomb and plotting to use his skills at a local school. Neighbors reported Erfan Salmanzadeh after he blew up an Xbox in his backyard on July 26, 2021. According to the Northern District of Texas U.S. Attorney’s office, plea papers revealed the Iranian-born naturalized citizen of the U.S. claimed he “wanted to see how much damage such an explosion would cause.
Cops also found a video from July last year where Salmanzadeh warns in Farsi: “We are going to blast the school,” as he displays to the camera a nail bomb “filled with shrapnel”, the suicide vest “filled with pipes labeled dynamite”, a suitcase “filled with a container labeled explosives,” and a backpack “filled with bottles labeled explosives.” In plea papers, he claimed he learned how to build a bomb on the internet.
Learned to build a bomb on the internet, so about that free speech absolutism...
The cops didn't foil anything. Dude blew up an Xbox in his backyard. Such and intensive investigation.
False flag incoming
No wonder he got caught. He can’t even keep the lid on his slurpee. Bonehead!
