2 things:

1. If I wrote everytime some ISIS guy had an idea that had no chance of happening, it would be ‘ISIS member wanted to kill millions’

2. This wouldn’t be a ISIS case because our laws stop big networks from forming in 1st place,they don’t for DT https://abc7chicago.com/michigan-governor-gretchen-whitmer-kidnapping-plot-militia/8079861/
Maybe your response should be ‘what if this was ISIS’ and instead be, ‘what if we didn’t write this piece’. I say this as a guy who passed on multiple times to write about a ISIS supporter w/ grand plans but no ability to follow through. We can do better
The real question you should ask is this: could you envision a scenario where 12 ISIS guys in Michigan could talk about killing a governor with only one of them being a FBI informant? The answer is no. Then work your way back from why that is (material support, etc)
