## Resource

A man named Mohammad Asim Bashir just received a 17-year minimum sentence for his role in a deadly plot: he drove his associate, Jihad Al-Shamie, to a UK Defence Academy for reconnaissance. Six weeks later, Al-Shamie attacked a Manchester synagogue, ramming his car into worshippers and stabbing one to death — another was fatally shot by police. Al-Shamie, who’d been arrested twice before, was killed by officers after pledging allegiance to ISIS. Bashir, labeled a committed jihadist, now faces the consequences of his involvement.
