Somalis living in the Twin Cities are begging Minnesota’s elected officials to help find a way to safely wire money back to families living in the Horn of Africa after a California bank abruptly ceased wiring cash to the troubled country over the weekend.
The decision by Merchants Bank to stop that part of its operations last Friday caught Somalis, who use money service businesses to wire money abroad, off-guard in communities across the United States.
Of the more than 30,000 Somali immigrants living in the Twin Cities, 80 percent of them use money service businesses to send money abroad, according to the Somali American Money Service Association.

Let me offer a simple solution.
Gather up all of your money and bring it personally to Somalia.
And don't come back, lest we get pushy.
they can just catch the next plane back.
Your plan seems sound to me.
24,000 Somalis sending money back home.
Seeing that most Somalis are on assistance of one form or another, that’s your money and mine going to people on the other side of the planet for no other reason than that our representative government deems it proper.
Multiply this by a majority of other idiot states that facilitate this nonsense and you have a very pretty picture indeed.
I can only hope that my African Somali family is well taken care of.
“that’s your money and mine going to people on the other side of the planet for no other reason than that our representative government deems it proper.”
It’s an easier and quicker way for the Democrats to buy votes than dealing with all those unions.
Can you imagine if you or I were to travel to the Horn Of Africa and behave and make demands like this?
We wouldn’t live through the night.
US Treasury Dept is shutting this down.
Star Trib runs the sob story.

Somalian Muslims? I think the ones in that state are Muslim if memory serves correct. Sending money to family? I doubt it. Probably sending it to other MB members overseas tobuy more weapons to invade the U.S. or for troop support domestically. I believe there was an article about some of their major money pipelines being cut off recently. Maybe they figured out how to use our wm money against us. I know of several Palestinians that borrowed large sums of money in the Chigcao area that disappeared after getting seceral multimmilion loans for hotel development projects that never manifested after they got the money. Several terrorist networks have learned how to siphon our money by posing as legitimate businessmen or working with them to borrow huge sums from our government via the SBA for non-existent land development projects or shell business entities. The reason I knw is because I’ve investigated many of them myself.
Yep.
No other media outlet in this town ran this story.
I have a better solution: Gather up all of the Somali transplants and send them back to their wretched homeland and let them begin the process of cleaning up that cesspool. All involved would be better off, IMO.

Take their money and force them to convert to Christianity at gunpoint; if they refuse, cut their heads off.
It looks like the Minnesota branch of this California bank was the last known bank openly participating in it.
Next step should be criminal indictments, trials, convictions, and and massive deportion of Somalis from the USA.
Tell them it is going to the jungle but deposit it as otherwise unpaid federal income taxes...
30 thousand Somalis in the Twin Cities now ?
Thank the Lord we got out when we did.
> its not paranoia if its real and honestly you don’t know if those “nice “ Somalis are here as refugees or if they are awaiting activation to act as conuits for terrorist activities or not. You simply don’t and you can’t until omething happns. I do know that Minnesota has a higher than average Muslim Somali poplulation and thatbthey are being imported in a little at a time. I have worked on many cases that have had terrorist elements in them, both domestically and internationally. So knowing what I do know, I’d rather err on the side of caution. You might want to check things out a little more before you jump next time. I have.
Yeah what wonderful people those Lutherans were to help them come to Minnesota and immediately jump on the welfare wagon.
We are all Somali now....
