US man tries to form army for Islamic State
NEWARK, New Jersey — A man who traveled to the Middle East last year wanted to form a small army to fight with the Islamic State group, federal authorities say Monday, weeks after the man’s brother was arrested in the same alleged plot.
Nader Saadeh, 20, is charged with attempting to provide material support to the terror group and is scheduled to appear Monday in US District Court in Newark.
The former Rutherford resident’s arrest comes after authorities arrested his 23-year-old brother, Alaa, and 21-year-old Samuel Rahamin Topaz of New Jersey on similar charges.
He could face several decades in prison if convicted on all counts.
