The FBI says more Somali travelers have left Minnesota, possibly to fight for al-Shabaab in Syria.

Investigators believe Somalis who left to fight against the regime of President Bashar Assad in Syria were motivated by radical ideology, not nationalism. The FBI asking the Somali community in the Twin Cities for more information on anyone who may have left to fight overseas.

If you know anyone who is planning to and/or has traveled to a foreign country for armed combat or who is being recruited for such activities, please contact www.fbi.gov/fttips or call (763) 569-8020. All information will be kept completely confidential.

“We can only hope that they never come back. “

They know the secret of dollar off coupons and two-for-one sales. They’ll be back.

Call the FBI in order to help, huh?

Richard Jewell did that after the Olympic Park bombing, I believe —they were going to pin in on HIM.

They will be welcomed back by any Rat administration. This is of course after they have been trained in guerilla warfare. What could possibly go wrong?

With all the muzzies in the country, we will soon become an exporter of terrorists.

Will they get a hero’s welcome on their return if they survive?

I don’t have a problem with this, assuming they stay away.

That’s not all that far-fetched.

I am not in any way a fan of Bashar Assad, but I hope his forces kill every single terrorist who travels there to fight on Al Qaeda’s side in their civil war.

I seem to remember Christian Church groups and some “compassionate conservatives” pushing the plan to bring this poisonous rabble into the US.

A few may not, but rest assured they will leave their first-cousin wives and many children behind to collect the $$$$.

I know of two that did come back a couple of years ago. I know right where their fragments are interred, too.
