It is unclear whether Nathan Semans is a convert to Islam or a sociopath who admires the Islamic State’s vicious brutality, but either way, this case provides a problem for the establishment media. Nathan Semans is apparently a white American, and a southerner to boot; ordinarily, that would lead the media to give his threats lavish coverage and claim that he was a white supremacist, MAGA-hat-wearing Trump supporter. But Semans denounced Trump twice in his deranged statement, and threatened to join ISIS, which the establishment media insist is not nearly as much of a threat as white supremacists are, if it is even a threat at all. So the establishment media will ignore this story. If the media sticks to its current playbook, Jihad Watch is almost certainly the only place where you will hear about this incident.
