According to a CNN news report, the FBI sent a bulletin to Garland police three hours before a terrorist attack on Pamela Geller's "draw Muhammad" cartoon event.
The FBI's warning included a picture of Elton Simpson, one of the suspects who was killed, as well as his license plate number. Police were told that Simpson had expressed interest in the event and that his social media posts were linked to ISIS.
According to CNN's Evan Perez, the FBI stated that it had no indication that Simpson was planning an attack or that he was on his way to the event. CNN posted the news to Facebook:
As TruthRevolt previously reported, Simpson was under FBI surveillance since 2006 for his connection with radical Islamist, Hassan Abu-Jihaad. Simpson was later arrested in 2010 for lying to authorities while under investigation, but was only sentenced to probation and a fine.
Simpson's past social media presence made clear his feelings on radical Islam: "Allah loves someone who is out there fighting… If you get shot, or you get killed, it's [heaven] straight away… That's what we here for… so why not take that route?"
Geller, who is a specific target of ISIS for execution, has yet to be protected by the FBI or Homeland Security, despite her requests for help.

Got to let the bad guys shoot first so you can prove they are bad guys...otherwise, it’s just another example of police islamophibia.
It just proves what a lot of us already know - do not trust the feds on any level whatsoever.
Not sure if this was post on FR? Kansas mosque will hold funeral for Texas ji(hate)ist.
Obama...... we got the terrorists in Texas
Yes, particularly then.
If what I have been led to believe is true, I don’t think they ever learned from the Oklahoma City bombing. I read they had all the intel they needed to prevent that.
I read they were given two or three names of potential targets, and didn’t take preventative measures.
cremate’em and flush’em
FBI Dances With Lone Wolves
Now, you have the real culprit in all of this, the FBI. THEY caused your "soldiers" to fail in their mission. Go get 'em ISIS!
More like treasonous.....
My theory is that the Feds using the NSA computer system were ready to plant a fake e-mail warning Garland PD....so when it was "not acted upon" i.e. not received......the lefties can blame Garland PD and set in motion the federalization of PD's.
Too bad the PD were on the ball and stopped the perps without a life taken (except the perps).
Was Simpson the ring leader? Because he is mostly the one they talk about?
But they won’t protect an American citizen?
I wouldn’t be surprised if there were not some ‘protecters’ around. heehee
Surprise, surprise.
We? Did he....oh, never mind. I know the answer. He’s pick and choose on what ‘he does’ and ‘does not’ do.
Of course not...Our politicians obviously want her dead...
A three hour warning means they were already in Texas. They also probably went through the border check point east of El Paso on the 10. Assuming of course they did not go up to the 40 at Flagstaff. Did the FBI notify Homeland Security ? Did flags go off when they drive the the border check point ?
America is under attack from muzlims, and the gov't sides with the muzlims...
I have not been tracking this event at all due to other pulls on my attention. But shouldn’t the FBI have shown up at the event, if they thought a terror attack as to take place? Wouldn’t they have cleared people out or done some proactive tasks to keep people out of harm’s way?
(Consider, if the FBI could have prevented the Boston Marathon bombing..., for example.)
Just my random thoughts.
Remember Louie Gohmert was there. Lots .gov types would like to see him go away, too.
If the FBI sent a bulletin - probably in the US mail - then why haven’t they called Geller back to discuss as she’s requested?
Hey! Muslims Vote!
More important they have Lobbyist! That is what all that matters. Bass Turds have sold out for 30 pieces of silver.
