A New York City man who admits he betrayed his country by joining ISIS tells publicly for the first time how he was seduced by the terrorist organization.

The 27-year-old is revealing the disturbing details of his journey into the heartland of terror — and warning others not to follow in his footsteps.

A valedictorian who wanted to be a doctor, a computer gamer who had Harvard in his sights and a pot-smoking hip-hop fan who traded in atheism for extremism.

The man killed was a finance minister who oversaw all the funding for ISIS’ operations, said Defense Secretary Ash Carter.

A New York-based brother and sister were among those killed during this week’s Brussels attacks, a person with knowledge of the situation confirmed Friday.

Fugitive Paris attack suspect Salah Abdeslam was captured in a terror raid on Friday, a Belgian police source told NBC News.
