During the sentencing hearing on Tuesday the attorney’s office showed a video featuring Hasan explaining to a FBI undercover agent how to stage an attack on the base and saying that his military training would be useful for the Daesh.
Hasan was arrested in March 2015 at the Chicago’s Midway Airport when he tried to leave for Cairo – allegedly to join th Daesh. His cousin Jonas Edmonds, who wanted to take part in the attack on the military base, was arrested last year at home in the Chicago suburb of Aurora. The Daesh is a terrorist organization outlawed in Russia and a number of other states.
