He is very kind and supports tour family. But this cell he is in is beyond radical and potintially very dangerous. Do you involve authorities and end up ratting him out? Or so you let it slide?

Don't panic guys... This is not real in any way. It is an ethics question and I want to see what others would do in this situation. I already know what I would do. I want to know what you would do.
Don't worry, I already have contacts in the CIA and homelant security. Now You likely know how I would answer. lol

LMAO Most answerers assumed it's really you. I hate it when it happens...hehe.
If my sibling joined a terrorist sleeper cell, i'd turn him in, no questions. Because people like him for sure have already stopped caring even for own his family's safety, knowing that anytime terrorists can attack anywhere, anyone.

Imagine if the terror cell struck and Americans were murdured. The FBI would track down everyone involved, everyone who knew of them, who supported them, who assisted them. Imagine if you and your brothers and sisters were shown to know about your brother's plans and did nothing but offer him assistance. What do you think a jury would do with you, even if you feel that you are on the right side of the line, how can you be sure that the jury would believe your side of the story?

Assuming I'm sure it's a terrorist sleeper cell? I would ask him to leave it, and then I would turn in the cell. If my brother were caught along with them, that would be the unfortunate consequences of his action. No way would I want even the peripheral responsibility for any terrorist actions they might take.

so nice neighbor but prettymuch faking all that to cover for the fact that he's a danger to my entire country? not my 'way of life" or whatever, but my home, my family, friends, values, rights, etc. yes, I would involve the authorities immediatly, and take my family away for a few months if I could while they handled things.

You have to look at the greater good. If a family member of mine was threatning to kill hundreds of people I would call everyone, the Sheriff, state police, FBI, US Marshalls etc. It is the right thing to do.

I'd go to the authorities. If you're anti-American terrorist, I don't care who you are, I'm taking you down if I have the chance.

I would have to report it. I could not imagine the guilt that I would feel knowing that people could be hurt or killed because of my silence.
