Jan. 2 (UPI) -- A Pennsylvania man has been indicted on charges of attempting to support the foreign terrorist organization Hezbollah, the Justice Department reported Thursday.

Jack Danaher Molloy, 24, a former resident of Pittsburgh, attempted to provide material support and resources to the terrorist group from August 2024 through December 2024, in Lebanon, Syria, the Western District of Pennsylvania, and elsewhere, the Justice Department said in a statement.

Molloy undertook these actions "knowing that the organization was a designated terrorist organization and that the organization had engaged in and was engaging in terrorist activity and terrorism, " a release from the Justice Department said in a criminal complaint.

Molloy, a citizen of both the United States and Ireland, previously served on active duty status in the U.S Army, traveled to Lebanon in August 2024 and attempted to join Hezbollah but was told by "multiple individuals that the time was not right, and that he needed to take other steps before he could join the terrorist organization," the Justice Department release said.

Molloy continued to try to join Hezbollah while living in Upper St. Clair, Pa. and allegedly continued to communicate with members of the organization online and in Lebanon. He also expressed his hatred toward, and promoted violence against, Jewish people," documents show.

"Molloy's alleged animus toward Jews was also evidenced by multiple images and videos on his electronic devices and the usernames he chose for his social media and email accounts, including the username "KIKEKILLER313" on the social media platform X. In one alleged WhatsApp exchange with a family member, Molloy agreed that his 'master plan was to join Hezbollah and kill Jews,'" Justice Department documents show.

He is also alleged to have visited a website that showed the possible incarceration location of Robert Bowers, the man who carried out the 2018 Pittsburgh Tree of Life Synagogue shooting during which he murdered 11 Jewish worshippers. It is thought that Molloy was a Bowers sympathizer.

The indictment also says Molloy lied to FBI investigators at the Pittsburgh International Airport in October, 2024 about his contact with members of Hezbollah. He said had no current or future plans to become involved with the organization and that he had no business in, nor was he meeting with anyone, in Syria.

"These statements and representations were false because Molloy knew at that time that (1) he did have current and future plans to become involved with Hizballah and (2) Molloy travelled to Syria in furtherance of his attempts to join Hezbollah, and while in Syria, set up a meeting with an individual there," the Justice Department release said.

Molloy faces up to 28 years in prison and a $250,000 fine if convicted on the material support and false statement charges.

I cannot properly explain why I sometimes log onto Google Earth, and take myself a little virtual car ride from the Pittsburgh International Airport, clicking through every little picture down the 376 East until I make my way through the tunnel and into the city. I stop and savor the two large strips of green running parallel to the road, the bounding hills in the distance.

Montour Run Road, Robinson Town Center Boulevard, the Ikea my family went to when I was a child, The Covestro Sign, sitting on that sloped meadow. It was Bristol Myers Squib when I was a kid.

Erie, Washington Exit 2 miles. And that wide, wide stretch of hillside, pock marked with hundreds of stone memorials to those who lived and died in the area. And right after that sobering sight is the Knickerbocker Store, with its funny logo that always puzzled me as a child. Next, to the right? Carpenter Training School. The left? That giant rectangle of Glass, the Walsh building. I crawl along with the other cars, winding my way down further towards that crass, blunt and honest nirvana. Through Carnegie and winding along a gradual right turn, the DVE office building. And then finally.

The Fort Pitt Tunnel.

The looking glass of an office strapped to the front of it, its big letters sitting above. And we transition into darkness, the fluorescent lights lined on each side. We used to challenge eachother to see who could hold their breath the longest. My siblings and I all petering out not even halfway. I'd count the amount of doors that lead to who knows where, and eventually, eventually that light at the end. I'm here.

WHICH OF THESE ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT????????

[the1975attheirverybest]

Matty baby I know you have money to pay for an overweight bag, you don’t have to wear dress pants and forty layers on an international flight.

He’s dressed like me on my way to SATVB Pittsburgh. I didn’t book a hotel, and I didn’t want to check a bag or pay for a carry-on (flew spirit) so I wore my concert fit on the plane along with with sweats over my tights, a crewneck, and my jacket. I was under the impression PPG had a strict bag policy so I shoved my portable charger and lipstick into my tiny medical bag with my insulin and then shoved the rest of the stuff I brought, along with my extra layers, deep down into a flower bed on my walk to the venue, and hoped and prayed it would all be there on my walk back (it was!)

Seriously though, his airport fits scare me.

Whoaaaa bestie!!! You are brave! I could never pull that off even if I tried. I’m the opposite, I overpacked a suitcase full of crap that I didn’t end up needing cuz I was terrified lmao.

It’s funny I think this man was not built for cold weather. He’s always wearing so many layers. I don’t think he’d survive east coast winter.

⛽⛽⛽ THE MIDDLE EAST, BY FAR THE LARGEST SUB-REGION MARKET, JUST SURPASSED 2019 PASSENGER NUMBERS AT 102%. NONETHELESS, GOING FORWARD THE REGION’S ANNUAL SCHEDULED DELIVERIES OF NEW AIRCRAFT IN 2025-2027 ARE EXPECTED TO BE ROUGHLY DOUBLE THAT OF 2023; A CLEAR SIGNAL OF THE OPTIMISM REGARDING REGIONAL GROWTH PROSPECTS.

🚒🚒🚒 USAir Flight 427 crashed while on approach to Pittsburgh International Airport following a loss of control and airplane stall precipitated by an encounter with the wake of a preceding Boeing Model 727 airplane

🛎️🛎️🛎️ A Boeing Model 747-200 freighter, powered by four Pratt & Whitney JT9D-7J engines and operated by El Al Israel Airlines, experienced the separation of both engines from the right wing (engines 3 and 4) during climb out from Schiphol Airport, Amsterdam, Netherlands. The separation of both engines resulted in loss of control of the aircraft and subsequent crash, killing all four people on board as well as 43 others on the ground.

A statement from Jeju Air has revealed that Samsung Fire & Marine Insurance was the lead aviation insurer, while AXA XL served as the primary reinsurance provider for the plane that recently crash-landed at Muan International Airport in South Korea, killing all passengers and most of the crew.

The crashed aircraft was insured for aviation insurance worth $1.03651 billion, with a compensation limit of $1 billion and a compensation limit of $36.51 million for damage to the aircraft itself.

The five insurers involved are said to write 99% of aviation insurance through overseas reinsurers.

Regarding individual insurance claims, such as travel insurance, the financial authorities will reportedly set up an expedited compensation centre at the Life and Health Insurance Association to check whether customers are insured and apply for and pay claims.

Load factors in the Middle East and Africa region improved significantly in 2023, as the number of origin-destination passengers reached 105% of 2019 levels, while the number of available seats reached 101%.

Outcomes vary considerably across the region, but all countries below the diagonal line recorded higher load factors in 2023 than in 2019, as the growth in the number of passengers carried (horizontal axis) exceeded that of available seats (vertical axis).

🏔️🏔️🏔️

⛽⛽⛽

The Middle East, by far the largest sub-region market, just surpassed 2019 passenger numbers at 102%. Nonetheless, going forward the region’s annual scheduled deliveries of new aircraft in 2025-2027 are expected to be roughly double that of 2023; a clear signal of the optimism regarding regional growth prospects.

Southern Africa remains the only sub-region still below 2019 passenger levels. This is primarily driven by the outcome for South Africa, which stood at 90% of its 2019 passenger levels in 2023.

The load factor improvement across the majority of the countries in the Middle East and Africa region is supportive of improved financial performance. This is particularly relevant for Africa, where historically the industry has struggled to generate sustained profitability, partly due to passenger load factors typically lagging the global average.

Strengthened Profitability Expected in 2025 Even as Supply Chain Issues Persist

🛢️⛽🚨

The return on invested capital (ROIC) for the global industry is expected to be 6.8% in 2025. While this is an improvement from the 2024 ROIC of 6.6%, the returns for the industry at the global level remain below the weighted average cost of capital. ROIC is the strongest for airlines in Europe, the Middle East, and Latin America, where it did exceed the cost of capital.

🌍🌎🌏

Total industry revenues are expected to be $1.007 trillion. That is an increase of 4.4% from 2024 and will be the first time that industry revenues top the $1 trillion mark. Expenses are expected to grow by 4.0% to $940 billion.

Passenger numbers are expected to reach 5.2 billion in 2025, a 6.7% rise compared to 2024 and the first time that the number of passengers has exceeded the five billion mark.

Cargo volumes are expected to reach 72.5 million tonnes, a 5.8% increase from 2024.

🛎️🛎️🛎️

🌝🌞🌝

“In 2025, industry revenues will exceed $1 trillion for the first time. It’s also important to put that into perspective. A trillion dollars is a lot—almost 1% of the global economy. That makes airlines a strategically important industry. But remember that airlines carry $940 billion in costs, not to mention interest and taxes. They retain a net profit margin of just 3.6%. Put another way, the buffer between profit and loss, even in the good year that we are expecting of 2025, is just $7 per passenger. With margins that thin, airlines must continue to watch every cost and insist on similar efficiency across the supply chain—especially from our monopoly infrastructure suppliers who all too often let us down on performance and efficiency,” said Walsh.

IATA highlighted the broad benefits of growing connectivity. The most recent estimates show that airline employment is expected to grow to 3.3 million in 2025. Airlines are the core of a global aviation value chain that employs 86.5 million people and generates $4.1 trillion in economic impact, accounting for 3.9% of global GDP (2023 figures). Connectivity is an economic catalyst for growth in nearly all industries.
