Last November it was reported that a resident of Minneapolis had returned to his native Somalia to conduct a suicide bombing attack. It is now known that he was not radicalized upon his return to Somalia, but that his indoctrination into jihadism happened right here in the United States.
The New York Times now reports that "the F.B.I. director, Robert S. Mueller III, said Monday that a Somali-American man who was one of several suicide bombers in a terrorist attack last October in Somalia had apparently been indoctrinated into his extremist beliefs while living in the United States. The man, Shirwa Ahmed, was the first known suicide bomber with American citizenship. He immigrated with his family to the Minneapolis area in the mid-1990s, Mr. Mueller said, but he returned to Somalia after he was recruited by a militant group. 'It appears that this individual was radicalized in his hometown in Minnesota,' Mr. Mueller said, speaking at a meeting of the Council on Foreign Relations. Minneapolis claims the country’s largest Somali population."
He musta heard Bill Mar declare him ‘brave’.
Must have attended some courses in a liberal college or public skewl. Or was he attending a meeting by the local chapter of the DNC or Code Pink?
Or a summer camp out in the sticks somewhere...
I figured that when they were striking, refusing to take cab fares re: liquor/guide dogs, schools, factory/store demands, etc..
So where are the rest of them?
