The Department of Justice and the FBI has released the unredacted version of the Orlando shooters 911 call after tons of outcry for redacting references to ISIS.
Republicans by the score ripped the White House over politically correct concerns, and Paul Ryan demanded the unredacted version be released.
Heres the full transcript, without the omissions:
OD: Emergency 911, this is being recorded.
OM: In the name of God the Merciful, the beneficent [Arabic]
OD: What?
OM: Praise be to God, and prayers as well as peace be upon the prophet of God [Arabic]. I wanna let you know, Im in Orlando and I did the shootings.
OD: Whats your name?
OM: My name is I pledge of allegiance to Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi of the Islamic State.
OD: Ok, Whats your name?
OM: I pledge allegiance to Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi may God protect him [Arabic], on behalf of the Islamic State.
OD: Alright, where are you at?
OM: In Orlando.
OD: Where in Orlando?
[End of call.]
As you can see, the redacted parts were clearly about ISIS, which everyone knew already.
This is the explanation given by the DOJ/FBI for why they redacted it in the first place and why they reversed:
The purpose of releasing the partial transcript of the shooters interaction with 911 operators was to provide transparency, while remaining sensitive to the interests of the surviving victims, their families, and the integrity of the ongoing investigation. We also did not want to provide the killer or terrorist organizations with a publicity platform for hateful propaganda. Unfortunately, the unreleased portions of the transcript that named the terrorist organizations and leaders have caused an unnecessary distraction from the hard work that the FBI and our law enforcement partners have been doing to investigate this heinous crime. As much of this information had been previously reported, we have re-issued the complete transcript to include these references in order to provide the highest level of transparency possible under the circumstances.

Loretta Lynch has a special page in the Sears Roebuck catalog wipes.
Yep, still sanitized.
Meanwhile, authorities are bewildered as to the motive, searching vainly for clues as to what may have driven the man to murder 49 gays.
Joe Wilson you nailed it and 7 years later they are still lying.
Do not be shocked. Liars lie...that is what they do. This criminal administration is replete with criminal liars at all levels.
“Now that you posted it. Whats up with that? We better wake up.”
Some of have been posting pictures of Obama/Jarrett and Clintoon/Huma for years.
Unfortunately too many want to have deep circular philosophical discussions on constitution what ifs, what a real conservative/Christians and why they are Never Trump, rather than face reality like the Muslims in bed with with Obama and Clintoon for years.
“Paul Ryan demanded the unredacted version be released.
Must be feeling heat from the home folks!
If he doesn’t respond, he may lose in the up coming primary!
They used “GOD” when he actually said ALLAH!!! THIS IS OUTRAGEOUS!!!
I’ll just BET this isn’t the entire thing!
Do we really have to have 75 or so geniuses who all think they were the first one to notice that they translated “Allah” as “God”?
Can’t ya’ll read just a few posts before jumping in?
Sheesh!
BINGO!! WHERE THE HELL ARE THE OTHER PHONE CALLS?????? LIARS!!!! Even COMEY NOW IS A LIAR!!!!
Liz......he didn’t say GOD in Arabic....he said ALLAH!!! NO MUSLIM says GOD when ALLAH works!
Release the audio!
He may be a Mulatto, but he’s a FULL MUSLIM!!!
That is one weird “God”
Exactly! If we can hear the audio of a pilot from a black box on a plane about to crash, we should be able to hear the audio of this evil man.
translation is explicitly inaccurate. i know plenty of palestinian american christians. they don’t need translation. obama is denying at least some americans— including palestinian americans, people with fluency in arabic, and the general public who can benefit from the reports and opinions of such people.
i believe that the american public can recognize a war cry in any language, even if it is not in english. in fact, it would have more meaning if accurately conveyed in the original recording. that way, people can decide for themselves instead of some bureaucrat forcing a translation (and only the bureaucrat’s translation, and subtracting the emotional tone of the communication entirely) on them.
what is Obama’s problem with being open and permitting the american public to hear the timbre of Mateen’s voice? his actual words?
i think obama is a traitor and a coward to issue a policy which effectively hides radical islam extremist activity in the usa. i think everyone who works in the usa who takes orders from obama directly or indirectly to hide the raw data about islam terrorism in the usa is a coward or has a conflict of interest and should immediately commence seeking different employment.
To Obama: would not Allah want his word to be spread directly by his followers to the kaffirs?
Epic FAIL, indeed.
Lyin Paul Ryan has his panties all a-twirl. I just heard him on FoxBiz vid saying "radical Islamic extremists". The polling came in, so he girded his girdle and said those three bold (for him) words. 😳😱
Exactly. Where are the other long calls?
And while we’re at it, there’s no reason to not include the transcript of the non-english content as well.
