Federal authorities have uncovered a chilling plot involving a 21-year-old from New Jersey, who transitioned from online hate speech to crafting elaborate schemes involving violence against Jewish individuals. This was linked to a broader ISIS-inspired terror plan that the FBI intercepted just before Halloween.
According to prosecutors, Milo Sedarat is among six individuals facing charges across three states. The charges stem from discovered plans for mass shootings in Michigan and intentions to join ISIS in Syria.
In a federal criminal complaint, Sedarat allegedly proclaimed himself as “the biggest anti-Semite in America” in messages to an unnamed acquaintance. Following a surge of anti-Israel demonstrations on college campuses in April, due to the Israeli-Hamas conflict, he reportedly expressed to the friend, “[b]ro everyone hates the Jews now…I hope a second holocaust happens to them.”
He is also accused of informing co-conspirators about his desire to harm his mother’s Jewish acquaintances.

In another alleged communication from January, Sedarat expressed animosity towards his mother’s Jewish friends, writing, “Bro my moms Jewish friends r brainwashing her…Into being a Zionist,” and continued, “I wanna kill her friends….I’m gonna stab them with my sword.”
“Lowkey say the state of Israel…Instead of Israel,” the friend, who is not identified in court documents, told him. “Cuz prophet Joseph is also Israel.”

She was apparently concerned about his threats, according to the complaint, and hid one of his swords. But a few weeks later, he allegedly shared images of himself holding multiple knives and swords.

In another conversation, the friend said he saw an Israeli protest nearby.
“I’m gonna drive into the protest and run over like 10 Jews,” came Sedarat’s alleged reply.
“FBI HES JOKING,” the friend wrote back.

And in another exchange, he allegedly fantasized about lining up and executing 500 Jewish men in front of their families, then taking their wives as slaves.
Sedarat allegedly claimed he was willing to get shot or go to prison if he could kill a rabbi on the streets of New York, and argued that Hezbollah militants are “so lucky” because they launched “missles (sic)” at Israel.
“It’s not the same tho…Even a gun…I wanna kill them with [a s]word,” he allegedly wrote. “Look them in the eyes…As I take their women and stab them.”

In addition to the sword videos, federal investigators recovered videos from a shooting range, according to court documents. (Obtained by Fox News Digital)
Federal agents also allegedly gained access to a cloud storage account that contained videos of Sedarat firing at a gun range and text messages in which he wrote to another person that he was going to strap a bomb to his chest and blow up an unnamed company headquarters in Palo Alto, California.
Federal agents arrived at his father’s house in Montclair, New Jersey, on Tuesday in tactical gear and armored vehicles to arrest him.

He did not enter a plea at his first appearance in federal court Wednesday.
His father, an Iranian-American poet and English professor at Queens College in New York City, has not responded to requests for comment.
