This is totally unsurprising.
In fact, the only thing that IS surprising is that conspirators like these are finally getting indicted and will no longer get away with plotting to kill people, vandalize property, and use intimidation tactics to force their political agenda on others.

What has been going on both on the streets and especially on college campuses has amounted to terrorism, although most of it thankfully has not risen to the level of outright murder of innocents.
These particular conspirators, though, were plotting to murder people, including children.
The 63-page indictment accuses the defendants of using social media; encrypted chats to research, target and attack victims; a campaign of threats that emerged amid Israel's war with Hamas, according to the government.
"Their criminal activity included spray painting threats, breaking windows, and throwing glass jars filled with noxious chemicals into family homes," the indictment reads. "They marked their victims with threatening symbols used by Hamas, including red inverted triangles and red handprints. They used the internet and social media to broadcast their message to ensure their threats and commitment to continuing criminal activity were heard by their victims and others who support Israel.
The Detroit News reports that they had "ties" to the University of Michigan, which was their main target, but doesn't specify exactly what those ties are. All the indicted defendants are in their early 20s, so I assume they were students, but that is speculation on my part.
What isn't, though, is their intention to commit crimes, including murder.
The indictment alleges that the defendants, along with unindicted conspirators, held meetings to plan, and collaborated to identify specific targets, including University of Michigan leadership, businesses, and anyone else whom they believed supported Israel.
It's alleged that the group went online to research addresses, photos, political and social connections, business ownership, and other personal details. "They performed surveillance on their targets and counter-surveillance on law enforcement. They discussed methods by which to harm their targets and their families, including poison, bombs, and psychological torture,"
Those are just the things they actually did. Their plans went further.
The indictment charged members of the group with conspiracy to transmit threats in interstate and foreign commerce. That crime is punishable by up to five years in federal prison.
For example, in one chat from May 2024, Feyock and Korkaya, at the time a medical student, exchanged messages and agreed to “kill” “torment” and “terrorize” unidentified targets, including one victim listed in the indictment as “Victim 4,” or V-4.
“We are finding (V-4’s) address if we don’t have it already (so I can) drive my car into it,” Korkaya wrote. “(V-4’s) entire family is now on my hit list.”
“Lets get (V-4’s) kids bruh ...,” Feyock wrote.
Now, think of all the liberals who applaud the violence they have seen on campuses. No doubt most of them don't explicitly want to see people killed, but they aren't afraid to associate with or support those who do.
They are the "I don't support violence, but..." crowd.
