Doing graphic design for ISIS was the passion of a 28-year-old Houston man who was arrested last week, according to a legal filing by the Department of Justice.
Anas Said was arrested last week in a chaotic scene in Houston after allegedly telling an undercover FBI agent that he wanted to conduct an “operation like 9/11.” But the legal filing contains a few incredibly interesting passages about ISIS’s propaganda workflow in Said’s alleged communication with an ISIS designer nicknamed “The Nightmare.”
According to the filing, which was first reported by our friends at Court Watch, Said was an aspiring ISIS graphic designer who was working with ISIS’s second-in-command graphic designer. That person told Said that ISIS’s chief designer gave him the nickname The Nightmare because of the extensive notes and revisions that were required before any piece of propaganda he worked on was pushed out. The DOJ document suggested that The Nightmare himself had many revisions for Said’s graphic design work.
