" What is wrong with these people? Perhaps The Daily Beast has the answer. Days before an ISIS sympathizer attacked a cartoon contest in Garland, Texas, he received a text from an undercover FBI agent. &amp;quot;Tear up Texas,&amp;quot; the agent messaged Elton Simpson days before he opened fire at the Draw Muhammad event, according to an affidavit (pdf) filed in federal court Thursday. It has been regularly argued in this shebeen that, sooner or later, one of these exercises in clever-dick FBI entrapment-trolling was going to go completely sideways and, as a result, someone\u2014or several someones\u2014were going to get killed, after which there would be a festival of fear-mongering and ass-covering the likes of which we have not seen since the last time Scooter Libby whispered sweet nothings to Judy Miller.

Among the tips he allegedly gave them was to &amp;quot;split&amp;quot; Islamic references to throw off the feds. &amp;quot;[T]he moo ja hid guide,&amp;quot; Hendricks wrote to one informant, in an apparent effort to avoid writing out the term &amp;quot;mujahid,&amp;quot; or holy warrior. Hendricks allegedly claimed that ISIS asked him to stay and plan attacks in America, and that he had 10 men and women in his group. &amp;quot;Hij rah is not what senior people requested me,&amp;quot; he allegedly texted an undercover agent, &amp;quot;splitting&amp;quot; the Arabic word for migration. Cue the theory that the Muslim Brotherhood jihadists are operating within the FBI.  3\u20262\u20261\u2026. Click here to respond to this post on the official Esquire Politics Facebook page.
