Afghan man pleads guilty to plotting ISIS-inspired attack on US election day

Nasir Ahmad Tawhedi, an Afghan national residing in Oklahoma, pleaded guilty to conspiring with ISIS to attack the U.S. on Election Day. He sought AK-style rifles and ammunition to inflict mass casualties and disrupt the democratic process. The FBI thwarted the plot, arresting Tawhedi, who admitted his motivation stemmed from retaliation against U.S. involvement in conflicts abroad.
